USDJPY 4 HOUR: Reacts to verbal intervention
Timing of verbal intervention suggests the MoF/BoJ have drawn a line in the sand around 159 to prevent 160 coming into play.
While 158 is pivotal in setting the intra-day tone, 157.76 (just tested) is key support that would need to be firmly broken to confirm a break in current (up) momentum.

USDJPY DAILY: Too soon for an intervention alert?
JPY underperforms: Trading with a bid while above 158, stronger while above 158.50 in a market likely to keep one eye looking over its shoulder for intervention but seems too early to sound an alarm.
In this regard, any approach to 160, should one occur, would raise the alert level but even then much would depend on the overall dollar tone.

Market Update: Closing Indices (4 hour)
Both turning defensive, US500 more so as it trades in a retracement mode while below 7747 (on this CFD chart) after not testing its record high.
NAS100 tested a similar level (30391) after a brief, short lived marginal new record high although 30K likely most important in keeping bulls from running for cover.
