According to the latest FOMC, the first rate hike is most likely be in 2015.
​Also, at the current Tapering pace, it would take about 4 months to get rid of QE (-10 bn per month of 35 bn), and that would leave us at October this year when QE is gone. And rate hike in 2015? It looks like this is where we going if nothing too surprising pops up.

While housing and retail sector are still weak, I'd say USDJPY range would continue and 101.00 level would be a quite solid support for now and next week.

{quote} its hard to say nowdays but dollar is weakening due to FOMC statement yesterday.
Rate hike said to be in 2015 (most likely), but GDP forecast was CUT.
Regardless how dollar react, cutting GDP is definitely a dovish tone.

It will most likely go up or down as a result of the data coming out this week. On Sunday @ 9:35 EST there is a Japanese Manufacturing PMI coming out.

Then at 2 AM BOJ Gov. Kuroda speaks in Tokyo. Last time he gave a speech a few days ago he mentioned that QE would be going on for the foreseeable future and yen broke above 102 after that.

IF he mentions something like that again, it is very likely to test the highs of the range that it has been stuck in for a while. I would think 102.50 to 102.80. Probably can't do much more than that until more news on Monday and later in the week.

Another possibility is that the Iraq conflict heats up over the weekend and yen gains strength due to safe-haven status. In that case we could see downside to retest 101.4 to 101.60. We will see.

US consumer confident and housing numbers are coming out next week from US side. Due to the already weakening house and retail sector, these are the numbers to watch to move forward towards the "rate hike"

Got one @ .84, just considering adding another, will have a quick look at the NYSE futures.
Possibly the SL should be .73
