be happy if this at least range for now, while RSI cools down and averages catch up (i am long).

still a little confused why $ is particularly strong today, as it seems that what's pushing us rather than weakening yen - although i don't have streaming $ index or yen, anyone?

FOMC meeting minutes later to stir things up, maybe they will announce they are stopping buying bonds because of budget cuts
Do what's right for you

{quote} Based on weekly there is an ascending triangle that seems to be completing..the demand zone around 94.10 is fresh and I'm sure stacked with buy orders which should break the consolidation area
i was rode pretty hard for this statement, but I still feel this will play out...I know majority of this thread is long I'm still looking for short entries..I could be wrong, I'm still new at this...but this is what I'm seeing

{quote} still long UJ ?
Long to 100.34. That's the paln at the moment, anyway. I might go for more, or I might see something that makes me take profits early. 100.34 looks very likely, though. I just don't want to have to wait through some lengthy pullback on the way up, so I'm keeping my eyes open---as always.

Besides that, I'm basically b/e right now. I sure as hell didn't put the trade on to b/e.

b/e would suck for such a nice opportunity. I´m long from 96.94 and just bought this small dip. Looking at 99.55 for first targets and further move up would open 100.30/50 which is the A point of a bearish harmonic.

Before it was the Euro against the USD making new highs as the USD against the YEN made new lows recently. Both seem to have turned around in opposite directions today.

I'd say it is simply supply and demand. Fibs are useful tools to use against the people who use them.

Might encounter some resistance around 98.50, but hopefully it won't last too long.

this pair makes me feel like my "love" life in elementary school. Were on, were off, were on, were off. were on again, were off again. And THEN she breaks up again with me at lunch only to get back together at recess... I once broke up with a girl to make her cry because people say she "hiccupped" when she cried.. so i did it. it was true she did. and now this is karma. the usd/jpy is making me cry just to make me cry and see what its like. its just sitting back laughing sipping a mimosa cause its classy..

I was long at 97.03 and sold out at the spike up to 97.6.....

I plan to jump back in again around the 96.7 area. I think the next few days will see some further lows as we get closer to the 17th and the market gets more nervous as we approach this date. However, once they have sorted out their budget issues, I plan to sell again around the 100 level shortly after....
