{quote} Dollar getting weaker against almost all its counterparts while Yen slowing rising upwards. I wonder how many billions were thrown for this move since 500-600 pip move today?
Not enough to stop water. Dam is already broken, yen has no fundamental support it's artificially inflated. FED will be hawkish also. Buy.

USD/JPY You folks still think this is supply and demand? Hahahaha... At least few people figured out who we are trading against...

{quote} Look at the price action Jordan . It’s very different from previous, wouldn’t you say ?
Looks similar to previous big short squeezes in JPY to me.

It's actually perfect that the retail sentiment is shifting to being short JPY, that's when you know it's going to reverse and that the dumb money, most retail, will provide the liquidity to off load positions on.
Exactly.

Where’s all the yen sellers gone ? Intervention has done its job . They’re timid now knowing each time they push it lower the intervention is waiting. Lower against the $ again today imo , buyer interest evaporating
isnt it up today?? already hit my TP today at 157. Wheres the damn intervention to 155 again, i want to repeat this trade again and again.

Start of the year we went from basically 140 - 160 with a minor pullback from 150-146. Even if it technically pulled back to 150 at this point it would be seen as a correction.

My issue is unless they're ready to use enough powder keg to bring it back to this year starting price or even lower this will just quickly rise up once again. It seems the markets are trying to play chicken with BOJ at this stage.

That's true, looks like equal buyers and sellers at current level.

Dude you're talking about buying at 153, this thing is going to 140... rebalancing starts May 1st which is the same day the FED releases. USD is going to tank vs the JPY. FED has to at least act like they will lower rates at some point this year to keep the 10y rate low. AND all tech indicators point to the pair being overbought.... retail will get killed.

when it starts there will be no bottom. Most definitely not 140.
