• USD/JPY getting another bump up into London, from 149.10 to 150.12 EBS

• Still a tad short of 150.15 session high early Asia

• Short-covering and Japanese importer month-end demand movers then

• Seems there was more short-covering to go ahead of month-end

• US rates on soft side though and JGB-US Treasury differentials narrower

• Offers in waiting too on 150 - from Japanese exporters, fresh spec interest

• Tech resistance from descending 200-HMA at 150.14, daily Ichi tenkan 150.43
