Thanks for checking, I think I now have a good understanding of all that. Now to move on to some other stuff.

What's gonna happen to that crazy USD/JPY after the all "unimportant" news at 7:50 PM (EST), par for the course would be something really weird..lol
With that kind of news I'm staying in.........

I noticed a new feature in JPY behaviour. In the old days of carry trade USD/JPY would normally go up before the interest swap at 17:00 EST, with the biggest move on Wednesday - the day of double interest prize.

Nowdays, almost every Wednesday yen strengthens right before the swap (between 14:00 and 17:00 EST)

I closed my long at the midpoint; am waiting for another long entry on retrace to the daily pivot + 2 pips

I don't know if they will move the JPY, but judging from how it's been behaving these past 2 weeks, I would be on my toes..I'm staying out till it's over.

Geppy is hard up against a tangle of support ema's everywhere from 10 -200 on the 1h and 4h. That may be slowing yen strength down here a bit.

On the other hand, if it breaks solidly below that mess, it could be an interesting night yen wise...

Posted a daily GY for grins. The beast has been in a coma for a week now... weird.

Australian jobs data often cause nice price jumps with gaps. I will be looking at the AUD/NZD pair to ride the announcement

yeah they're screwed up right now, you can go on the top bar to Chart > Reload Chart and that helped some, but it looks like a server problem for now.
