Today will be a slow day. It's not going anywhere.

Quite the opposite.
Equity futures have already started to swing heavily.

I've been buying the dips here and a couple on cable too....just 20 or 30 pips at a time....they all add up.

It's 10.45pm here so not sure how long I'll stay for.....certainly won't be leaving any trades open tonight!

If it moves, more likely is southwards. 88.xx must be tested before any upswing. Glad to know you're profitable too.

Thanks.

This type of crap PA is not the kind I like to trade.....in fact I'm not that goodwith it.....so I just take what I can, trading off retracements with the trend, provided a trend exists of course. If a decent move comes when I'm already in the trade, perfect.....if not, well, another trade will be along sooner or later, and in the meantime I'll keep collecting 20's and 30's with the occassional 40.

One day the long term trend will return......one day!!

The Japanese Minister Naoto Kan, should look at this forum! mainly this topic! The forecasts which are published here are perfect!

Very interesting look at his comments on USD / JPY.
High degree of accuracy!

Congratulations to you all!

What do you think of buying 88.90?? starting this week?
Marry: if this pair is touching 88.90 again, i think this pair will absolutely try to deep more north to 88.00 and even 87.xx but if you trade monthly then 88.90 is a good level to put long. or if you have enough passion. just try to wait for this pair to go lower(if it touch 88.90 again).
my self allready open long at 89.20 and will open more long if this pair goes more north(87.70 and 86.20 at my automatic order).

The candle patterns suggest that its building momentum for the downside. Likely to test the lows of 88.xx and 85.xx. Any movement upside will be limited by 91.00 for now.
This scenario is still in play.

A closing candle above 91.00 would signal an upswing to the high of 93.50 / 95.xx. A closing candle below 88.50 would signal a downward dive to 87.xx / 85.xx. If the day candle is very fast, don't buy @ 88.xx. Don't catch a falling knife. If the day candle is slow and took a few days to develop, buy @ 88.xx !

I'm currently trading with a few banks. Their leverage are all 100:1. I'm trading standard sized contracts of 100,000. Usually I will put 05 lots per trade. At good prices, I'll sometimes put up to 20 lots per trade. Yes I have a big account and I'm profitable.
Any Other Bigtimers here ?

After earlier weakness, the USD JPY strengthened after the U.S. stock market firmed. Earlier in the session, investors were selling the Dollar/Yen in anticipation of a flight-to-safety rally. The recovery rally in the U.S. stock market has helped ease demand for lower yielding assets. Traders are also a little nervous about holding long Yen because of the threat of a government intervention.
