As highlighted below, there are a couple of things to note per day. intrepid.

The first is for EUR/USD at 1.0850 and 1.0900. These look like they will keep the price action in more control in the session before taking action later today. This, with the 100-day moving average at 1.0930, continues to keep the interest of the sellers alive as the bearish momentum continues.

Then there is what could come at 145.00 as a support layer for USD/JPY and/or perhaps an anchor for price action. The point today is that we’re seeing a significant drop in bond yields and so there’s currently a pull towards the figure level. Buyers will try to defend this to continue the upward move, so futures could play a role in helping this. But I would like to warn you that bond market sentiment is much, much more important in this case.
