there will not be any major breaktrend unless the QE3 is out , thats when BJ comes in. market is quiet means a major breakout is comingbut we know someone is backing up the USDJPY pair , the following screen shot was taken secs apart, u see USDJPY pair recovering to before the NFP was announced.

everyone talking about QE3 but i expect something different this time round, If QE2 doesnt work QE3 , QE4,QE5 does not make sense.

I mean, risk appetite will be low on this background and investors will be buying jpy as a safe-heaven asset

Long consolidation zone, those are mostly followed by strong moves.
Still think a (last) sell of is most likely...

Had a Long Limit order@ 79.96.

Missed it by less than 2 Pips.

Could have been a fairly nice profit.

Oh well.

Could be Bear, could be. I am so unsure of what this pair is likely to do next that I am kind of 'shooting from the hip' if I see something I like......which isn't very often these days.

I'm still very interested in this pair, but I can't trade it at the moment.
