BoJ may tweak its operations again; no major policy changes
The BOJ is expected to leave its major policies unchanged at the meeting on August 8-9, unless USDJPY declines substantially, says Nomura strategist Yujiro Goto. "We think the Bank may tweak its operation slightly again to make its JGB buying operation easier" he said. This time, two new board members, Mr. Sato and Mr. Kiuchi, will attend the meeting for the first time. "If either or both of the new board members dissent against the governor, USDJPY would likely rise, but only until the market realizes that one or two dissents are unlikely to lead to any imminent radical policy shift" Mr. Goto notes. Nonetheless, "the new board members‟ inflation forecasts are likely to be more pessimistic and, thus, we think it worth watching for any changes to the BOJ's economic and inflation assessments" Nomura strategist adds. Keep an eye on any discussion about BOJ foreign bond buying too, Mr. Goto concluded.
In the European session ahead, the June UK Industrial Production and Manufacturing data will be risk event for GBP, due for release at 08:30 GMT. Later in the day, the National Institute of Economic and Social Research GDP Estimate is scheduled for release at 14:00 GMT. (fxstreet.com)

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Market stabilized yesterday after the Friday’s gains. Medium term bias is positive however today we expect correction as main scenario. Our resistance levels remain the same as yesterday. Potential of going higher is seen above next resistance at 1.2443 (R1), surpassing of this level would suggest next targets at 1.2519 (R2) and 1.2595 (R3). If it fail to go higher, we might see further retracement development below next support at 1.2368 (S1) with next target at 1.2298 (S2). Achieving of the support levels might lead to the further instrument strengthening.

MARKET ANALYSIS - Intraday Analysis
Today we have important news from Japan that might establish trading tone for Asian session - Japan Trade Balance at 23:50 GMT. Technically, USDJPY remain to be traded in range mode. Successful attack of next resistance level at 78.37 (R1) will provide market with a new target at 78.57 (R2). On the other hand, possible execution of protective orders below next support level at 78.13 (S1) might drive market price toward to our suggested targets at 77.92 (S2) and 77.70 (S3).
