Dollar/Yen declined by 41 pips from the daily high and a slight loss was recorded at midday. Turnover is low and sentiment of the traders is neutral, 7% short. Decline makes a successful morning session more likely for bearish market players. Pound/Yen dropped by almost 100 pips to trade point 52% in the red at noon. Traded volume is low and most of the market players have been forecasting the pair to decline. It did go per those expectations and only the slow trading approach limits upside potential.
