i am in it too. You think this TP can be achieved in next couple hours ? i been waiting all night here in the US

I don't manage time factor yet to know if for next hours or not. Actually, i'm trading for no cost and waiting.

i think we could possibly see a retrace to DP 90.70 or 91.00

Wow bshcom, with that sort of screen setup you must be making some serious pips per month??? Wish I could understand and trade from that!

Good morning

Still some pips to target. Position locked at entry point.

Good trading for all.
Position closed with no loss and no gain, based on rule never let a gain become a loss if target not achived. Next plan will be short in next second time touching 90.10 with SL 90.40 TP 89.25. I'm waiting, otherwise it will be for monday, if nothing move before US session.

Looks good to short at the moment, with stoploss at pivot on 90.80.

I think the pair will not break 89.50 and it could get to 94.75 maybe even 97.00.

Long USDJPY now, stoploss 89.25, take profit 94.75.

i absolutely agree with you about uSD/JPY will reach 94 level or 97 level, but this will not happen in this near time frame, the closest tiem frmae would be 1 month, before that everything can happen, including USD/JPY will move down under 88.xx level. so prepare you risk management and have a profitable trading guys..

my self allready put 3 long position, and ready to put more long position if the USD/JPY move more down. offcourse i put a small ammount of percentage of my account.

Hmm, this pair seems to be in limbo land...but nonetheless here's my view.

Breach of the 85 level was an interesting case...pretty violent move as counter orders were forcibly triggered...it however was an expected move with over 80% of traders (retail) attempting to profit on any major uptick. imo we are nearing the same situation, the retailers getting greedy for that run to 97-100+, greed to me = myopia and myopia = trading opportunities for me ... With that being said I fancy a move to the mid/lower 80's cannot be ruled as longs are squeezed out once more.

Buy orders sitting at 82.50


If the above doesn't pan out well ..... will short again at 110-115

Does anybody know when we will know if Bernanke will be confirmed? If comfirmed I believe that that will give a boost to the $$ as there will be less uncertainty and less risk aversion, therefore I believe this will be bullish for USDJPY. Could be a nice pop, considering where it is right now.

His term ends January 31st. They have 4 yr terms. He can be confirmed anytime up till then but oddly enough, they do not set an exact date.
Corrupt system, the only reason they wouldn't set a date is to make sure that they do(or don't) have enough votes to get the guy in/out...

Take care and have a good weekend guys,

UJ is definitely in an obvious downtrend, break of 90.00 level and close below it is a major signal that this thing is going down. I believe it should dance and head to 86 at least next week. I'm in a sell from 90.28.. I could not break even because the market closed. Will be looking for a break even 1st thing market starts tomorrow and keep it running.
