... hmmm ... just 10-11 hours left...

If USDJPY really goes down I would think that it goes up again to 80.6-80.8 level... right afterwards...

Me too, really just waiting whole day to reach BE on my long, but no success until now.....
What I see is that UJ is supported by CB's while moving down but money involved is pulled out when and if market can handle it.
That being the case, longs are protected pretty well, but for the real move up we need more fundamentals or BOJ wanting to put it at another level. For now I will hold my long @ 80.75 untill PA kills it or a +100 reward is in site....

from what Beljevina kindly explained from VSA a couple of pages back I would think your stop is in trouble!

USDJPY went down a grand total of -3 pips. Wow.

Sorry, I just couldn't resist teasing whoever makes an extraordinary claim . It’s like the chap who predicted that another huge earthquake would strike Christchurch last Sunday. Yet, all we got was one little aftershock, something that we have been getting several daily since last September.

There have been aftershocks in the thousands in Christchurch since the first earthquake in September and of course the recent disaster.From all accounts the CBD is just about a rightoff.

I don't know, something fishy is going on.
The correlation indicator is moving in tandem.
USD and JPY have been pegged

Well, G7 gave assurances that this pair would be supported. With what Japan is enduring it would be callous not to follow through. Japan needs a strong dollar. So? Looking at other pairs...

USDX is certainly getting some bids over the last 24hrs but the Yen is matching them.

The Yen is now starting to pick up a little bit of strength this morning.
If we break through the resistance on the range it will send USD/JPY down if USDX can't match the strength of the move.

Yep.....USDX is doing is part in the equasion it would be nice to see the Yen (and the Swissy) pull their heads in and play ball too. Having said that, and having said that I was out of the Swissy for the time being, I got a nice long on it overnight......more by good luck than good management though I must admit!

I've not taken a trade on it for a while now. Think I should have done over the last few days because nothing has happened on USD/JPY lol.
