I couldn't do the S&R as I was already short EURJPY.

Have added more and got stops to B.E. already after it fell through there, hopefully it has some legs
The position on aud/jpy was really a waste, IMO. A better technical picture was available on eur/jpy and I don't understand why I didn't removed my limited on aud/jpy before.

Lets hope it just wasn't stop hunting.

I agree, EURJPY looked a lot cleaner.:nerd:

I didn't take AUDJPY because of the correlation.

My best guess would be that this scenario is based on daily chart ?
Too early to call a diamond at this moment. It just left a few debts up there at around 1.52.

Yes, just for the sake of practice, a guess on cable.

Same here, it's too early making any conclusion (for me) on usd/jpy also but could be something in the near future.

the low of '95 was 128.33 and still not taken out. it's technical significance is 0 though.

Damn our bucketshop data streams. So the low comes in at the same or nearly the same price as the descending lower TL, so maybe it would make sense to try buying once and if we get there? But seems the bears are in control so far. I might be completely wrong though.

Worth a try, at least, since you're a trader and not a fortuneteller.
On cable, so far, today's bottom exactly matches the bottom of the previous diagonal in the potential diamond.

Unlikely. But BoJ may have already gotten it's own view on the issue.

I see. Might need to re-reading some of the chapters regarding intervention again.

Having a quick look around the internet, the consensus seems to be that its 129.30ish.

I envy your data Igrok.
