​Nikkei 225 struggles on yen volatility

​A resurgent yen has hit the Nikkei 225, knocking it back from its highs of the session on Monday. ​While the bounce from the lows of April around 37,000 is still intact, buyers will need a revival above 38,300 to put them back in charge.

​A close back below the 100-day SMA (currently 38,031), might raise the prospect of a renewed pushback to 37,000.
