I see 199.00 area is the solid support. If it ever gets down 30-40 pips below that level, then the trend might continue to be down. Otherwise, still looking to the upside ..

How can there be a major move up with this hanging over everyone's head?
Mmmmm. Very interesting. You should also check out: http://www.dailyfx.com/story/bio1/Br...653915808.html

In summary, they're saying the Pound could break 2.0 if any mortgage lender announces losses or closes shop. Nationwide the country's 2nd largest mortage lender is planning on turning away business. More UK numbers tomorrow, so we should expect decent volatility.

I am looking to long instead, if hourly chart is starting to trend up ..it may be the timing to enter long

we are testing that 61.8% fib right now at 199.25.

It could be where the pivot forms to go long.

I'd be carefull picking bottom here. Nikkei 225 is down 12,532.79 - 71.79 ... meaning that we might see a move down. I'm kepping my shorts till London open.

Ok so here we are at the 61.8% of last nights move to high of US sesssion.

199.25 .

I would wait for a trend reversal confirmation on the 15 min , a break of at least the 20 sma to go long. Put it this way if there is another wave up it , it will be as long as the last 350 pip. So we can affrod to wait a few pips for trend reveral confirmation.

The range is getting narrower and narrower on the 4 hour , expect another major movement(500 pips plus in days) in the next week or so

Mr. Mirror Image tells me that the low on GBPJPY is here, as of 19:12 PST @ 199.57.

200 pips lower and 13 hours into the session, confirmed also by Gann angles and Arc projection

FWIW,

If you can wait till 199.2 that would be a better place to sell .

Lots of support on the 199.5 to 199.2 zone , incuding 61.8 % fib reatracement and 50 sma on both the 60 min and 2 hour

The pattern that is playing out is a falling wedge , these are continuation patterns. In this case that would be down .

We have yet to test the monthly trend line at 185.

House prices are coming out of the UK tonight, If we break 198.5 and bottom trend line ( that would be 4th test of the bottom of the wedge and according to Gann could make for a powerful move down).

Now if the house prices surprise to the upside we could get the move thru the top of the wedge and go test the fib extension up in the 207 zone.

Either way when this wedge breaks , which it will soon , there is going to be a large move.

I meant sell we are in a primary downtrend

going long increases your risk of a losing trade by 100%

In 13, 6 min bars starting with the low at 21:06
it went from a low of 199.25 to a high of 199.96
thats 70 pips, and heck I take sometimes less than 20 pips on trades.
And I was long during all those bars. And I think it has just as good of a chance of going north than south here. And I'm about even ATM and its heading north.
