You should get out nicely before the statement. They usually run a bear trap right before it then shoot up to take everyone out. The current highs are targets, but I still think the weekly will get a touch.

Weekly high range of 110.07 looks good for the long fake.

It was very risky situation because it was 1x, then 2x and then 4x lot size. I was ready to lose 10%.

My indicators show uptrend on USDJPY and I'll enter long if 109.246 will be broken up.

Yesterday was a very good trade on GU, but I was greedy and didn't close at my target (moved my TP lower). So gained only 40% of my target when GU reversed. After that I stuck at CAD and then with JPY. So I lost all the daily profit. But if I just close GU and then did nothing it will be about +3%.

To go down first JPY need to crozz daily open, then MA200 and then previous day low which is -0.23% from daily open and >0.5% from current. I think it is impossible setup for today. Too big distance for JPY. May be tomorrow, but I don't like to toss a coin. Tomorrow will see.

I don't think so. We waited for this move too long.
But let's see! I might wrong.

As long as Powell doesn't say anything too crazy I think we will pop once more before the drop. He should be done talking in a few mins. I have been waiting on the drop too, but they are tricky these market makers. If they know everyone is waiting on something they tend to rip the other way first doing a stop hunt.

Cup and handle? If we return to those highs.. I would wait to sell. Possible cup and handle coming.

Yes you are right, but as I said JPY has no strength. The key levels were:

1. 108.992 - daily open - it was broken
2. 108.772 - previous day low - was not and the price reversed/bounced from it
3. 108.741 - zone level. Touched by shadow.

Now price returns to the channel back. To start downtrend it need to break zero, previous low and the zone level again.
btw h1 - long, h4 - long, daily - long cycle just started

Gap has been filled. We are back where price dropped. Now let's see what happens. I believe we will range here for a bit, and then dip just before US unemployment news. If we pop off of it the weekly high of 109.8 may provide the long awaited drop. Otherwise we should be ready now. This is the only US news left to use this week.
IF we are going north cup and handle style, I would see us bouncing off of the area shown by the two red lines. The area provided by the gap. Strange though, I only find this gap on my cryptorocket account..
They sort of look like long orders that someone quickly took off the table when the news came out no?

Profit taking here is expected. Remember EVERYONE said we would sell here, so anyone taking a long from below would jump ship here out of sheer prudence. Why be greedy?. Now let's get the greedy people back on board. Going long here will be exciting no? OOOOH.. how many more pips can we get?! 110? Almost. It is too obvious a target IMO, so just below it.

I could be wrong.. but if I were a Market Maker this is what I would do..

Notice the support at 38.6%
