Something definitely happened, we'll probably get the news later.
This kind of move can not be facilitated by just Technical!!!

USD/JPY has broken 4 daily pivot levels(S2, S1, PP, R1, R2) and is currently at the 5th one(R3). If it breaks R3, do you think it will still have weight for S2 levels.
This one seems a tough call, seeing that something shady is going on.

It would be the normal behavior for this pair, but with the preceding rounded bottom I'm not selling and prob will regret it

R3 (81.97) seems to be rejecting it for now. Is this a possible reversal?

Anyone get news of what's happening with USD yet?

yep,.... this round slope at the bottom looks well defined...

and it points to the sky right now....

But if you take the intervention level into the picture it starts to look like this:

We are now reaching the point where we will jump off.... but it will go waaaaaayyyy down after that....

Well Put!! I couldn't have put it any better.
It seems to be rejected by the 81.97 level again? Seems like the same trend from 26th October is about to repeat. What do you think?

Lol. You think so? Whats your say about the current bias of the market trend (bullish or bearish). Price seems to be rejected at 81.97 so far.

Aha, some News from Japan!!

A Nikkei article saying that the MOF was planning to allow the BOJ to trim its contributions to the national treasury!!

BOJ and its 5trn asset ......

"A Nikkei article saying that the MOF was planning to allow the BOJ to trim its contributions to the national treasury should it incur losses on its Yen 5trln asset purchase program, reportedly helped in part to the overnight rally in the [USD/YEN] to its 81.98 highs. Fin Min Noda is expected to make an official announcement soon; with the move seen underscoring the united front between the govt and BOJ, in the central bank's latest easing efforts to support the economy."

[DLR/YEN] rose to 81.88 from 81.55 around fixing this morning on actual Dlr shortage, then dipped back to 81.56 on exporters' and investors' sales, and is doing tight range trade till now. 82.00 heaviness remains unchanged as banks report decent sell orders above the figure, while the pair ended NY yesterday above the 21DMA for the first time since Sep 22, and with possible bottoming formation of neckline around 82 and rising US yields (Dlr/Yen has been following US yields till Sep), caution is needed for upside breach (but down trendline from May still be alive).
