SL 76.70?
Just taken profit at +10.
Just too slow. Could be the wrong decision but looking at other pairs.
The daily R2 looks to be doing it's job also.

Maybe the right decision too. I saw the trade but I was in one already on the Swissy so I stayed with that......I want to get that long term Yen trade started, but there's nothing to suggest that the time is right yet.

Some info regarding the cost of Noda intervntion efforts:

"The policy of intervention began in earnest in August last year, when the decline of the dollar gathered pace. In 2003, the Japanese government spent $100bn buying dollars in an attempt to hold down the value of the yen. In the first two months of this year, it spent another $100bn. And Japan’s parliament has authorised the spending of a further $360bn this year."

They're big numbers.....and the fund is much larger than that.....I did see the size of the pool somewhere but I don't recall where it was.

Meantime the following may be interesting:
