I did take half off at 48 pips and my stop loss is 48 pips away from my entry.
Worst case : Zero net pips.

It was a bounce of 94.5 ppz so the location is valid, the shape is valid too as far as my data feed is concerned. I don't find a lot of things going against this one IMHO. The correlation however is a worry me given that the Dow and S&P are headed up I left this one well alone

Plus, it's always dangerous going against the evil Bank of Japan.

the Pin on Uj indicates a stronger yen, and this is what Flem was pointing out.
PS the major Yen crosses somewhat flow with the major Dollar stock indices, the Usd/jpy being the most correlated (as obviously it's a direct relationship of the $ with the yen), so it's never a bad idea to keep an eye on the overall momentum of the U.S stock indices and the $ indices in addition to gold and oil, even when you don't want to trade them

Double top with divergence and the bounce off the trendline...
I am waiting in ambush below 1.2 to get on this one
EDIT: forgot to mention the daily IB which was right off the trend line i.e yesterday's bar for those of us here who would think as to where did PA assist me At first I wanted to enter while the Ib was being formed but the immediate possible trouble at the roundest of numbers i.e 1.2 kept me out, I now have a sell stop below it, and yes I am being a bit more conservative then I would like to be, I've had enough lately and i can afford to be conservative for a while

Looking good.
Stall just around the PPZ and 50Fib confluence. If aggresive enough, I think we could go long on the touch like Rac lol I don't know how he did that (could just figure out a bit of it after studying his 'touch' entry but I don't know for sure).Edit: It's really annoying when I accidentally closed my position. Closed G/U instead of E/U.
