it could come down to the 107.5 region

I will try to buy today after the FOMC minutes since the US/China negotiations could result in positive news

With the flag break, lets see if price reaches the targets, {image}

Hey Yoda, I missed the first big move 11pm my time last night by having the audacity to sleep. I'm more comfortable scalping or at least must have a trade min SL and it was still rangebound when I called it a day last night. On the upside I looked further afield this am and got an AUSUSD break down as picture, 6 trades as I decided if i really want to earn more money I need to have more faith in my decisions. TP on all as per pic, currently have met half my weekly target but I'm ok with that.

I'm currently a bit bullish UJ for the next few hours, not in a trade

Like to bounce, price does. And we could see that happen, before pushing lower. Just look at bonds over the past 24 hours, strong push down. The fundamentals, give reason for lower bonds. Higher interest rates, more Chinese buyers, government shut down (less debt, less bonds being issued) all show a lower bond market.

I'm looking at a possible buy if price should close above 108. A close below it, will attract a long term sell.

108 region appears to be holding and it might go higher towards 109 and then 109.8

107.5 is stronger support below 108

TP 108.295. It wasn't moving down smartly enough, and I didn't like the bullish penetrating 15min candle.

THE USDJPY pair, repeat itself often, it does.

Finding a similar price movements from history can help to give insight into the future movement of price. With that said, over the past 5 years, only one time, a similar pattern appeared, to replicate what we see today. This movement being a large downward thrust after a strong downtrend, in relation to USDJPY.

During August 24th/25th 2015 this pattern appeared on USDJPY and what occurred afterwards was an 8/9 week consolidation period. Fast forward to where price is today and the current price movement has acted in a similar fashion, along with BONDS and interest rates. I wouldn't be surprised to see this exact thing. A period of 5-8 weeks of consolidation for the USDJPY pair.

And a possible longer consolidation period, considering the drop in august was 4 days and the current downward movement was a 3 week move from top to bottom.

One last thing, the range being about 180-220 pips.

May the force be with you, always!

Tight stops, tight spreads and extreme trade vetting and only under ideal conditions required - one or two sniper shots - if unsuccessful ruthless disciplined retreat* regardless of further considerations - trigger happy compulsive over trading and 'scalping' will result in fast losses - separate sideline account suggested - no time for further comment - go figure for self required.
