I hope to see 78.30 when I wake up in the morning. Then again, I might see 80.30, but I hope not.
In the days of old when sailors were bold, and seldom if ever contented.

between 79 and 78 is free space only, if it breaks only boj can save it from falling

Tough call,

Yen looks strong across the board.
Would not think BOJ will step in before 77-76ish.

Looks like the market is preparing for disappointing US employment figures...

Today will be the day of UJ I guess. I think it will break 78.90 and will go 78.20.. It's your turn samurai.

yen having a hard time to weaken cause bonds are still strong

japanese bonds attacking the highs at 143.6 again, could be a final wave 5 up
japan bonds reached the highs at 143.6, maybe extend to 143.8, so yen might find a chance to bounce back from the daily wedge line around 78.6 to 78.5 at least back to 79.2

gbpjpy will hit 117-118 .. i think usdjpy will go to 76.80-96 its good place to add long.
If we blow thru it then 76.30 best place
Early to bed, early to rise, keeps you healthy, wealthy and wise.

Hi can some one explain me what is relation between USD/JPY and other currencies?

For example NZD/USD and AUD/USD move in similar way where NZD more often makes more sharper turns. If EUR/USD falls GBP/USD falls too.

But why when EUR/USD NZD/USD falls USD/CAD rises (value of USD increases) USD/JPY falls? My common sense fails there. If I look in charts instant fall in EUR/USD coinsides with instant fall of USD/JPY for me it just looks weird, can some one explain about it and magical world we live in?

Each currency's value is independent of another. So when US dollar strengthens versus AUD, NZD and CAD, it doesn't mean it should also strengthen against yen.

there is no reliable currency correlation to usdjpy..if you wanna have an idea why yen is getting stronger look at the bond market: US treasury 10y and 30y and japan government bonds ...if they rise usdjpy usually drops
