Never scalp before a news event my friend.

For me that is the downside to scalping. In order to make decent money you need a big account, otherwise you find yourself staying in trades longer than you need to just to make a decent amount. At least I do. I didn't become successful until I started trading amounts I wasn't afraid to lose. .01 per 100 dollars. Be careful out there..

Yes it does, but just keep in mind that their previous interventions didn't last long. On the chart they look more like retracements with large wicks.

I am still learning so definitely not an advice but by observing the chart looks like it's a correction pulling back to 149 (or even further to 148.8) then going back up tomorrow if there is no intervention from BOJ. Let's see how it goes {image}

In some things innocence is better than knowledge. In innocence we trust ourselves more.

I don't expect to be out until tomorrow, and will continue buying Sunday. If BOJ is coming in at 155. I am aiming for that, although I am thinking more 157, so 155 intervention sends us down a bit. Just in time for FOMC minutes to send us up? Let's see.

Also... any move that happens 15-20 minutes before news is most likely going to be reversed when the news hits. So if you are at 150 and price dives to 149 right before the news, that price will most likely jump back up to 150 and beyond. Hope this helps

Very important indeed. All their 2022 intervention effect seems to be erased now.
But I am careful, as it also means that they will probably NOT intervene in the same manner it has last year = anything can happen.

Their previous attempts, mainly in 1998, worked seemed to have had more durability than these last ones, but I am not letting appearances fool me, and trading accordingly, for if they need to have more effective interventions, they will get them.

I am mostly clueless about all of this. 99% technical trader.

But still is interesting :

155 a bit to high this time, but aside for later, my guess will reach ~151, and drop. I will be looking for signs before jumping in. Blns are waiting for this intervention, will happen in a blink.

USDJPY price action on the daily time frame is sideways. Presently, it is tacking the 150.000 horizontal resistance area (purple).

I may be wrong. Trade safe and prosper.
