I am just scalping 5 pip each trade with $1 a pip as a learning exercise for this pair. This pair is too risky to take a longer term view.

considering the way its dropped over last few days, it wouldn't be bad to take a long position from 1.5950. what do you reckon?

Ben10,

Is current level good to go long in USD/JPY? I am hoping to go long at 89.80 with TP of .90.50 and to hedge, I can go long in AUD/USD from current level?

any suggestion of this hedging strategy?

if you think of GBPUSD right now, watch for the triangle,
this symmetric triagle is more a contiuation pattern than reversal, ar at least what they wrote in the book !, so it should go down, and in daily chart there is a head&shoulder reversal pattern, so everything favours short side

if you wanna play long, up to you but be ultra careful & put SL below 1.5910,

Yup - downtrend confirmed in my 30min chart. entered short at 1.5956, targeting only a few 10-15 pips as I dont want to leave any position open tonight.

just my opinion ! dont be too rigid to set the target, what i mean is when you are in profit move the stop to breakeven point , as the price move in your pavour ,the stop also move (lock the gain)and you could end up with more pips.

what you see on major trend? up, consolidation, down? find significant support and resistance(price clutter/hug the line alot), now you got ideas where price compress/clutter (support/resistance), then pick your pavorite time frame and trade

hedging or syntetic play is just the same as you trade individual trade , hedging via synthetic just gaves me the FLEXIBILITY thats all and to stop bleeding .

uisd/yen major trend(daily) is down and you gonna trade from the long side? unless you scalp or short term trade

thanks :-)

So what time frame do you usually trade?

I see the trend using 4 hour, 2 hour and daily candle and get my signals of entry from 5 min, 10 min and confirmed entry at 15 min SAR + MACD + RSI.

If I am scalping, I usually trade on 5 min or 10 min chart but for medium term, I tend to get confirmed entry at 15 min chart.

when the price fall a lot usually traders wait and wait to go short and finally they decide to go short and too late, price reverse and their trade no good anymore

if you use macd try to trade the divergence and rsi also good but find the significan support and resistance first before you look into the indicators. if the price action and indicator get married then you may take small position to test the water and if its good add more and put stop at break even point etc etc
