To be honest, it is really hard to understand why would the traders buy USD, despite USA is no where better to smelling like a rose. JPY seems to be a much better choice as safe heaven

or may be the Emerging Asian currency.

A shortage of USD. Too much dollar denominated debt. Just like 07, 08, and now 2010. The money the Fed prints just goes into a black hole. The Fed's liquidity programs wind down, and the market goes down. The market is addicted to the Fed's crack. That's it in a nutshell.

Japan is in worse shape then US. The Yen does not go up due to fundamentals, it goes up as carry trades unwind and only b/c of that reason.

you and i and everyone in this forum have a different tolerance for pain.. some are scalping.. most are over leveraged. i think we go down.. will it go higher before.. i don't know. i got some positions as high as 2971 and as low as 2430.. so im not in the same boat as most.. i will not ride either back to b/e.. i hope we touch 2133 before 2211.. but its never a sure thing.

Yep, and about time too. Careful with the kiwi though because tomorrow is budget day, and it's anyones guess how the local market will react. I think it becomes public in 24.5 hours from now

I don't see any clearly defined pattern here. I'm just waiting for a signal to be stopped out of my short position which today seems to be taking forever.
