Yup, 20 pips from the days low to the high.
Hopefully we will make up for it tomorrow.

It spiked the USDX (below) with stops being hit to accelerate the move.

It spiked all the XJPY pairs. Only USD pair that was affected was USDJPY. AUDJPY, EURJPY and GBPJPY had spikes as well. This had definitely something to do with the Yen. Could it be stop hunting before XJPY moves further down?

I would put it down to the Yen trading so tight yesterday.
We have already broken through the R1 and R2 on the daily pivot, the weekly pivot and R1 on the monthly.
Notice how we stopped exactly at 83.52.

it just a spike and auj will going down a little bit before it will retrace up for correction......look closely 1h there you can see a complete 5 wave swing down and from my d1 it already reach the top so watchout for the sell off after the 1h complete the correction.....

News group Al Jazzera says the Libyan army has called for a march on Tripoli to remove leader Gaddafi.

It will be interesting to see what Gaddafi has to say shortly.

It appears the world is at war (financially) with Japan. Everyone's trying to short their currency, carry traders being their gluttonous self, and another ratings cut to negative tonight....

More incentive to horde Yen, imo. Sub 80.XX should be imminent.
