USD/JPY - BOJ does a ring around to 'check rates'
Intervention can take many forms There's 'jawboning' - talking about a currency to influence the direction There's actively going to the market and buying/selling to push the rate and stop a few speculators out (there are different ways of doing this) In between those two there is the simple act of the central bank (in this case the BOJ) calling up some interbank dealers at the banks and asking for a 'check' on where the price is. This is often enough to trigger buying (of USD/JPY in this case). This is what just happened according to what I've heard.
