Some banks seem like buying USD to create a strong support at this level. Anyone have the same feeling ?

seems like the banks have thier "buy-a-dip-omatic" algos working overtime on this pair or we would be at 77 already

It's interesting to see a Never Up JPY AS FUN AS BEFORE, OVER TWO WEEKS !

It's interesting to see Jpy as a ""safe heaven currency"" ,even stronger than swiss franc !!!

Someone help answer it!

Why JPY is called Safe heaven currency ,even stronger than Swiss Franc??

1. Is its ""decades dead economy"" stronger than swiss economy?

If so, all africa country's currency should be called Safe heaven too!!

2. Is it a liquid ,world reserve currency like US$?
Is petrol dollar will be changed to petrol Jpy, so Jpy is called Safe heaven???

3. Is it highly dept ,worse than greece ?
if such a currency could be called safe heaven ,
if Greece has its own currency now ,it should be called safe heaven currency now now matter whatever happening now!!

If a country''s currency with such high debt, bad economy,less liquid
be called safe heaven?

Almost every africa country's currency should be called ""Safe heaven currency !!!

Why not zimbabuwe's dollar stronger than swiss franc now!

Or there is something else behind the funny safe heaven JPY!

Please dont laugh at me, i'm new in forex and financial market!


Just a newbie thought!

If a country like usa threatens to go on default i guess any currency can be called safe heaven especially when there are 100times better doing economies at this time then the dollar.But dont take it too seriously

Seems like a small support @ 78.08 area....if 78.00 holds,
a small upswing towards 79.50 will be possible...

the main reason might be that JPY is the funding currency for carry trades cause it has the lowest interest rates
whenever there is risk aversion money flows back

wouldnt rule out support @75.91 area. since its a longer term support area probably 75.90 - 74.80 range

below 77.87 I can see a angry face of Yoshihiko Noda :-)


...and maybe a real intervention...

78.05 held up right to the PIP, if you like P.P.'s.

Anticipating a nice reaction to the upside when debt ceiling deal is reached.

Wednesday at the latest.

I am already on.

78.05 is my WS1 level. I have learned to trust the P.P's with this Pair.

Nonetheless an interesting ride it should be.

Overall I am down still, but confident that my target will be reached.
