Dow futures fell after Trump's announcement on Thursday and were down nearly 200 points, or 0.8%, early Friday. That followed a day of stock market gains in the United States as investors appeared to warm to the idea that the barbs between Washington and Beijing were all talk.

Investors were reassured by Larry Kudlow, the director of the White House National Economic Council, who also characterized the tariffs as just proposals in remarks on Thursday. He told reporters there is "nothing around the corner" regarding any concrete tariff plans.

So the usd/jpy was nice to me. Non farms came out, took a dip then recovered to 107.34. Thought that was odd considering it was non farms and took a sell position for all of 30 seconds. Easiest 20 pips of my life.

Trading both ways is very important, especially when price is right at a juncture of volatility, with many conflicting ideas.

it could be getting ready for a sharp move down

FED chair Powell is speaking later today so he might get the market excited and when he finishes talking, USD/JPY might fall down

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell will deliver a speech on the economic outlook at the Economic Club of Chicago at 1:30 PM EST.

Powell said a few weeks ago that he only saw "moderate vulnerabilities" in asset prices compared to their long-term normal levels. A continuation of the optimistic stance by Powell on the economy could help to lock in market expectations for two more rate hikes this year.
