My knowledge of JPY is still weak: can anyone point an internet site where there is more than just news (like detailed relation to China and USA market-wise)? Would be much appreciated.

They seem relaxed; GJ is bouncing, but volume and shadow pins are roomy on up and down. Apparently everybody desires a jump upstairs but is prepared for a quick drop if fibo is seriously breeched.

It all depends on how you set your risk/reward. For some people who trade 'heavy' 20ps is a place to take some profit. I don't like buying at the top, but if I was in this trade, I'd take a look at a daily pattern. G/J went straight up for 8 days (higher close). Look at a dailies as far back as you can to see if any type of correction is due.

FWIW:
if you see gbp/chf turning down. I'd consider closing that position

Same rumour, keep coming...

18:08 There has been some talk regarding a possible suprise hike out of China later today. We would not be shocked to see that happen.

Best strategy: skip the frenzy, fish the bottoms.

I actually trade GJ looking at GU's and UJ's support and resistances. On UJ, good options are Pivot levels and the 100 hour EMA. Have a look at how UJ traded those levels yesterday and today and you will know what a mean.

In this case (China hike), the affected would be UJ only, GJ hit for simpathy. So I start building small long positions in UJ and GJ when UJ stalls at expected supports. If it goes on dropping, I go on adding. When the bounce off support is confirmed (breach of next pivot level on the upside - expected resistance) I add to longs.

After that I start taking profit at the following pivot levels...

Makes sense?!

Looking forward we have no major economic news scheduled tonight but last night saw comments out of China. Also, this weekend’s annual meeting of the Bank of International Settlements will bring central banks together. There is some talk the carry trade will be discussed and we could see some positioning in front of this meeting. It will be interesting to see if traders in the Asia session will continue selling JPY and push USD/JPY over the 123.80 level. USD/CAD also appears to be bottoming out and may look to test higher.

Those "carry trade events" are usually good to shake up the things a little, test supports and all, imo

cesarnc, Do you think the treasury yield is going to be a problem for the market again?

I don't know.

What is not smelling nice for me are the strongly erratic sessions in the US stock market. -150 one day, +150 on the other. Today, dow jones put -80 to close +56, after yesterday's -146.

I don't have any charts that show dow jones in candlesticks (anyone??) , but I would suspect that several dojis or "almost dojis" are being formed consistently. This would be an indication that the uptrend is getting weaker and a major correction might be on its way.

Hey Cesarnc, Good to see your posts again, I love your work. I trade the GBP/JPY in a very similar style watching GBP/USD and USD/JPY.
If you want Dow Jones Charts, I use this mob http://www.alpari-idc.ru/en/download/. I think they offer a load of other indexes and futures. Interesting to see a double top on the Dow Jones.

Thanks lyricus and pablo.

I've been out of the thread coz I've been out of GJ lately. Missed the big run up, although I was going long GU and UJ alternately.

I'm keeping this way until some good confirmation of GU out of its downwards channel (looking for breach of 9960-70) and UJ making breaking the 123.80/124.

Until then, I'm a scalper only.

Curious as to what kind of stop loss you use when trading like this?
