I will be very careful with USD/JPY even if there is a short signal.

Usd/Jpy This pair is on downtrend, retracement is at 81.10/20, break is to 81.50/60 while low is at 80.00(buy with blind eyes).
* The yen pairs are somehow more safe buying on dips than Chf pairs because intervention is prepared by BOJ at anytime of collapse near the 80.00 or little below levels.

the reason that this pair is still ranging is because the QE2 is still going and we are in the talk of a QE3 , thus the indecisive market ??? Speculators are still buying the dollar and selling of the Yen, unless the us economic starts to show recovery else we might see a further fall (but not too great). neverthless it is a good time to wait and see attitude.

Usd/Jpy This pair is still on daily chart downtrend despite trying to break above but must base above 81.50(crucial resistance) to achieve that targetting 81.90/00 then 82.20/30 must hold while low is at 80.00

I went in heavy in the low 80.70's and made a killer trade that gave me more profit in 13 hours than I normally get in 1.5 week. In at 80.75, out at 81.25 with high leverage.
Same with an UY trade that I started last Friday and held over the weekend.
And in between same sort of killer trade with USD/CAD
Since Friday I made with 3 trades more than I normally make in a month.

I love the red trend line in the chart.

Happy trading.

Your broker will be very happy with your trading style, I guess you have lots of s/l hits? That all goes to your brokers account, + the spread.
Less than 16 hours ago after ADP report the low was 80.64, so an s/l @ 81.00 does not make any sense. (Not only the 6 pips, but also YOU NEVER PUT A STOP AT A ROUND NUMBER LIKE 81.00. Round numbers are profit targets, never stops.
I don't use stops myself but a reasonable stop should have been 80.50 or so.
You are obviously in the beginner phase, and you can learn this game in 3 ways: The hard way (how you do it now), read a few good books, or you will never learn it.

Send me a PM if you want some reading advise.
