Trying a quick EJ long here at 127.45 ... tiny stop -15 pips.. worth a shot for a scalp
Highly over bought as are most of the yen pairs after thier big run up last week.... looking to short if it bounces out of the 128.00 area again...

Ob/os is meaningless on the 1m chart.. I'm up 26 now and watching the hh/hl for signs of failure.

UJ has fallen back quite a bit.. a little pop in UJ would likely be very beneficial.

I do see it keeping its down movement and cannot believe it will keep going higher, I just see it correcting for most of what happened last week.

I like the call and missed this myself... but if oil remains bid or has small pull back I would expect this pair to react inaccordance as oil seems to be unfazzed by any dollar strength right now

Shorted EJ on a break of the 200ema (15min) 125.24.... eyeing longs on UJ, CJ, and AJ with pull backs... as well as AU play pending RBA decision

There's supposed to be a massive option at 1.00 .. I figure it's worth a shot to use it as support and try to catch and inevitable bounce.. It seems to happen once or twice per week despite the overall obvious strong downtrend.

I'm in UJ because of treasury yields breaking 4% today.. UJ going much higher seems inevitable..

I think UJ, CJ, n GJ need another day or two to correct.... and then long!!!

We didn't get the strong bounce we needed off of parity, BUT loonie has failed numerous times below 1.00 .. I'm encouraged by that.

EJ has bounced off of the 38.2 on the 4hr chart.. That might be the end of the line for JPY strength..

I'm slightly up on EU and slightly down on UC and UJ ..
