Again, I took a long at 82.98. It didn't make a breakout yesterday, but did make good 20 pips. Let's see how it goes today.

Did you make your 20 pips on the short? I had a long 8298 triggered at around 10.30 this morning - been in bed sick :-( - but it was caught in my sl 20 pips down. I notice it never reached 20 pips in the long.

Yesterday I took a long at 83.01 and got out at 83.22. (FXDD)

just enough 8.5% for oct profit as next week will busy with my business trip...

with this failure of intervence from BOJ, i am not suprise if market will have another round of crash...but definetely not flash crash..but in step by step manner...

so sell all rallies for all cross is the way it should...EY is ready n waiting i think..

good luck guys

Good advice but I would not be short any yen pair in the early morning hours GMT. The fact that BOJ has not interevened does not mean that at some point they will not, and if they do it will be during their daytime hours.

And congratulations on the good profits so far this month.

Cheers for replying; it must be the time difference (today/yesterday). I managed to catch a 10.4 and 15.1 pips on longs around the 8300 level yesterday too. I've taken to setting Orders to open a trade if usd/jpy goes below 829x but seems to need setting a bit lower still.

Don't know if you have noticed (or maybe doesn't affect you since it would be a broker thing) but the spread offered on usd/jpy changed from 1 pip to 3 pips within the last hour, sneaky!!

bears are very carefully, but looks like BoJ lose, so we could see 80 very soon

BOJ is nothing & can not do anything so only enter short positions not long anymore.

BOJ will intervene if there is a rapid yen increase ...

...so if it is not fast enough, they won't intervene..

I dont think Japanese want to see this going down the drain. What will happen to the Jap industries? Jap govt made it clear that they will do all they can to keep the currency under control. They usually walk the talk.

If UJ stays at this level, NFP will cause a free fall, because good NFP will drive the equities up, UJ down; bad NFP will raise the question of safe haven, UJ down again. So either way Yen is on the loosing side.

Now the BOJ has no choice but to intervene tomorrow first thing in the morning. Time to go long?
