Is this good time to go long? Seems to be very bearish and with the NFP results due tomorrow, this could go violent. BUT who knows this could be the bottom today and NFP could be the catalyst for bullish run. I am on the sidelines to enter long at 85

Thanks Rob! I dont know why BOJ did not intervene yet. Japan exports are hurt with this strong yen and that is a gain for China/Korea.

Don't count on a BoJ intervention to take a position. Only if NIKKEI gets down to 8500, BoJ will start to think about some kind of intervention.

For me it looks oversold. Besides technicals, look at the fundamentals and Yen is at the high and there should be lot of buyers waiting. Japan doesnt want super strong Yen which is hurting their economy. Any upmove will be violent and downward is slow. I dont want to get caught, unless you have tight stop loss.
