last week was completely an uptrend....

I do believe this week might be a typical uptrend-week as well... but be careful.

So everyone's long now? I'm a bit careful now. The japanese debts situation is nothing new guys. The USD/JPY will go up in the long term but for NOW I think it will go down a bit first. Why? Because it just looks like it will go up much further. Down channel has been broken, so many will be long now. Easy money for the big guys, especially as the USD will be the carry currency for a while because QE2 won't be the last QE measure...

FOMC meeting minutes will weigh on the Dollar today.

The long to short ratio on this pair has been at levels of 80% long for months now.....it's nothing new.

I am happy to see upmove, not so much because I am long.... more because I welcome the opportunity to close some 2 month old long positions that are finally in the blacks..... :-)

79.75 still very sexy and seductive.

I am a newbie when it comes to forex, just entered long for USDJPY, hoping that those seasoned members can guide me. I just go in because North Koreans were shooting South Koreans and it seemed that when the world situation is unstable, people tends to like the USA, also Japan is nearby Korea, that's why I am long on the pair. But wonder how do I justify it technically? I mean drawing those graphs and analysis, where should I start?

Morning beginnerluck!

Check out http://www.babypips.com/school/ as it will have everything you will need and more for a newbie to Forex. I haven't read through it myself (when I started trading i never knew it existed) I hear a lot of people speak only good things about it so I'm sure you will find it of great use!
I would only recommend that you keep your technical analysis as simple as possible. DO NOT get suckered in to putting 20 flashy indicators all over your charts so you can't see what is happening, you won't and will inevitably loose money.
Check other markets and currency pairs to see how they are correlated and keep on top of fundamental news and you will be profitable.

Hope you have a profitable day!

i favor to play major downside targetting 81.95, or around Daily MA55 at 82.75..but it could move otherwise, depending on US Data, USD index, and other news...i'll stay aside for one hour..
