I might consider that...got stuck in a trading range and adding LONGS at 79.458 - all at the same level. Target still open as long as 78.500 holds

Considering the upside move from last week I think USDJPY wants to go higher. Unless equity markets tank we are going higher from here.

What do you think about todays movement of AUD/JPY? Three big news come out today. Unemployment Claims, ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI and ADP Non-Farm Employment Change. They are all moving AUD/JPY for as high as 20 pips or more in just first few seconds. I will trade with all of them today and try to capture as many pips as I can. Is there also anyone trading with news?

I got the USDJPY heading up to 80.70 from hereabouts. Stop at 79.10. A more conservative stop (and probably smarter) stop could be placed at 79.40.

It seems there's a nice open field for the pair to run up through and take some stops above. Potential for much higher prices than 80.70, but it is usually better to take profits where you are as sure as can be that your target will be hit. Don't leave it open to any other type of feeling. This does go against "letting your profits run", but it is a good r/r in any case and I am as sure as I can be it will be a good trade.

The SSI with 6 traders long to every 1 short means it's going to be a long long time before we see mid 80's again.......Just keep that in mind, it's almost mathematically impossible until all those traders take a loss or profit and get out. Most will statistically take a loss, which means we could see 78, 76 or even 74 before 83 again.

Beyond 80.70 I can't say. I'm leaving this trade either there or at my stop, and on to the next one.


EDIT: I should add that stops can and probably will be moved up as the trade progresses. Also, if a topping formation occurs before the target is hit I'll exit early. Above 80.10 there are no stops to take until 80.60 so any top below 80.60 will have to give a few fakes before it reverses.
