Dojis at monthly, dojis at weekly ,daily and now at hourly chart... but there is still some room left down the road. When we can see dojis at 1m chart it will be time for breakout
Looks like the Europeans have finally found its equilibrium point. Governments use to state they "HATE volatility in fx", there you are....

For us trying to earn a living from volatility, it's time to wait for some crazy fact or rumor...

Some crazy Ayatola holding a nuke on CNN would work fine for me...

what i hate most is that every move that g-u made lately was during my sleep time; even when i decided to stay awake the market stalled and then it moved RIGHT AFTER i went to sleep.
it sure looks like someone's having fun on my expense.
well, let's see what's going on right now: +/- 5-10 pips around 1.9636; not that bad, i can make money for my broker, it's just enough to b/e after i beat the spread. maybe they'll give me a bonus...

Market is buying Yen, that's all it's happenning. 10 min after NYSE open and YEN soared...

Gotta increase my attention on yen from now on... There were talks of dollaryen @ 116 and I didn't care... Its about to break 117 down, for 100+ pips today already... DAMN!!!!!

Well I really hope that in about ~22 minutes the data will pull the trigger big time. I want to go back to these good old non-scalping days.

From my point of view, if the ISM comes out positive, we'll have a massive breakuot upwards and towards 1.98, otherwise, downwards straight to 1.93, this is for longer term of course. The price should gradually make it to one of the points, not free-fall or skyrocket in 1 day.

I Keep Short on EUR/USD and will just monitor GBP/USD to see what kind of reaction there will be

The DJI's open heralded a 200+ tick decline and with it Usd/Yen also broke to new lows under the 200 day moving average. Breakout sellers are following up regardless of the ISM, which is already being seen as another bearish trigger. Criss Yen demand has spiralled with Cad/Yen break below 100.00, and Aud/Yen down to challenge the year low at 92.05. Similar key levels are being eyed across the board with Eur/Yen falling fast and seen on course to test the 100 day ma around 154.40. The break in Usd/Yen highlights potential for 116.40 in the near term .Reserve mangers have been seen on the bid but despite large size their demand is not making much if a dent in huge carry unwinds.

Yup, we're in the wrong place at the right time....

Yes, I spotted it moving.. got in the GBPJPY at 232, its now 229.. not the easiest of pips, but with the balls of steel on this pair, sometimes it pays off..

for your trading tip earlier of shorting @ 9640 with SL 9670 - I did just that and was was intended as a scalp may have now become a nice short for a ride down
Consistency and patience is everything
