• Greenback broke out of its 120.00-121.60 range against the yen, to reach a two-month high of 121.72 after Yellen signalled Dec rate hikes
  • USD/JPY is off overnight highs, retraced some of the gains and has edged back below channel resistance at 121.48
  • The pair is currently trading at 121.45, just below channel top at 121.48, with supports on the downside at 121.10 (200-DMA) and then 121 
  • Convincing breaks above channel top at 121.48 can take the pair to 122 levels, host of vanilla option expirations at 122.00 (USD727 mln) could attract
