In the short term I think the true test is 104.00. If it makes a clear break of that then I see some downward breathing room. I would cover on another bounce.

If it can break the 1st barrier 104.00 and the 2nd 103.95, then i'd have a little more faith it might free fall .... somebody get UJ a sledge hammer ...

03:17 USD/JPY: Easier, Back Down Towards Early Lows, Bids Sub-104

Tokyo, May 23. USD/JPY looks to be without direction, especially after the Tokyo fix. It has eased towards the very early 103.95/00 lows, currently indicated at 104.04/06. Bidding interest seems to trail down below 104.00, notable especially at 103.80 and then towards the 103-lows. Stops are not seen till below 103.00. Topside, more orders look to be coming, especially stops. They are notable above 103.40, 104.38 the high in New York overnight, and especially above 104.50. Offering interest is seen ahead of the New York high and from 104.55, trailing higher, but more stops are eyed above 104.70, 104.69 the high on the 19th, and then above 105.00. - Thomson Reuters.com

Bearish Divergence on the 4H, with this bar that closes in 25 mins.

RSI touching the Overbought area.

Price under the 100sma and closed there for the last 12 hours now.

Provided Fundies are NEG in the am, down we should go.

Still short from 104.55 (from yesterday, with my 4H strat)
Short again from 104.10

Lets see what London has in store for us.

What do you guys think: are the markets really thin right now or are people just unsure of which way UJ is going (which is why it is going nowhere)?

I will guess that everybody is waiting for existing home sales tomorrow. You never know if the big boys will decide to cook the books and make this pair shut above 106 in a one minute candle
For he that would be deceived, let him.

Like you say pinchapip you never know. My two cents says we must be ready for any outcome and accept things we cannot change. I remain dollar bear as long as Bush is still in office.

It's starting to look like a symmetrical triangle consolidation pattern on the 60M chart with a flagpole from 103.1 to 104.4. Could be a bad sign for bears.

There is supposed to be some pretty strong option barriers around 105.

It is very hard for me to read today's charts, but 105 to 102 sounds like the most probable scenario.

Yes, but AUD/USD was barrier at .95 and broken, it just makes sense to now break 105.

104.34 down to 102.70 area with Neg US Fundies.

4H is in a Descending triangle and last 4H bar was Bearish Divergence.

Just my thoughts.
We'll have to wait and see.

Plan the trade and trade the plan. Once the plan is developed and you enter the trade nothing left to do but hope for no whammies
