USD/JPY wanes capped by 93.85

FXstreet.com (Barcelona) – The pair struggles to hold firm on high levels as overbought conditions seem to have forced the pair to correct to the downside after investors in Asia propelled heavy selling.

The greenback has been loosing steam since hitting a fresh 8-month high at 94.80 zone and we can count it just shed over 100 pips in the last 24 hours. The pair faces a strong support area at 93.75 area (Jan 8 high).

The corrective movement has been halted at 93.85 although this level may be breach as the pair threatens the temporary support area once more. Current pricing settles at 93.93.
