Another housing report

The pair got pressured by recent Abe’s comments on impact of weak yen for the regional economies. Trading below 109.00 area may be a sign the market is tired of USD popularity and overwhelmed with USD longs. Recent disappointments from Existing Home Sales could be one of the catalysts of recent correction, and if tonight’s New Home Sales come out below expectations, another round of sell-off is not ruled out. The initial target to the downside for the pair may be found at 108.42 support.
