BTW, there a lot of talks here and there about BOJ raising rates later on...
I've heard that as well, let's hope. I would love a dip in G/J to 230 or am I being greedy?

Well, the last rate hike was expected. This time, the expectations are for a no-change. I really don't know what to expect from a surprising hike..

Specially because even a huge hike, say 0.5bp, is a fart in the carry trades rate differential hurricane...

Either way, this is not a good time to short Yen

All it would do is flush out weak longs, unless they hint at future hikes.

Greedy? nonsense. You're an angel. Maybe in a month or 2.

THAT's the forex spirit!!!!

Hey bohogirl you should go for a nap, too... We need movement. We are trying to trade here!!!
As you wish! I'm exhausted, so consider me napping in 15 minutes.
I should warn you though that it this has only been tested with going to sleep out of boredom - I'm not sure how much will 'I'm tired, I'm going to sleep' move the market.
Good luck though

Someone is sneaking in a down move between sessions.

Is that Bravado at work ?

nice if you bought before the boom.. tough for people trying to get on the ladder.. I wanted to see if the housing market makes a big correction. It might just stay at a where it is for many years, till wages do some catching up. Repossessions keep going up here too.. Cool.. I didn't know u were a brit too bullrock.. seems to be a lot here :-)

Carry trades fuelled the move up to 240 and now is driving cable down after the news... Right now GJ is at a expected supportive trendline in the 4H. Letīs see if it holds...

My GJ short at 240 is so small, that there is no point in taking 100 pips profit LOL.... SL at B/E and will see where it takes me... If UJ takes out 117 later on, Iīll add to shorts.

Iīm not ruling out the 235 zone

I see the trend line you mean.. I think it will hold and move up further. Out of interest, what did you use as a sell signal?
