In the Asian session, at GMT0300, the pair is trading at 105.57, with the USD trading 0.18% lower against the JPY from yesterday’s close.

Overnight data showed that Japan’s Jibun Bank services PMI climbed to 45.4 in July, compared to a reading of 45.0 in the previous month.

The pair is expected to find support at 105.32, and a fall through could take it to the next support level of 105.07. The pair is expected to find its first resistance at 106.01, and a rise through could take it to the next resistance level of 106.45.
