Thanks for sharing your analysis with charts Orabi, hope you enjoy your day as well.

I am still bullish on USD/JPY and all JPY cross pairs.



Ok, below are results on a DEMO account utilizing the Third Screen Strategy of Dr. Alexander Elder for USD/JPY and 4 other JPY Cross Pairs.

Brief description of strategy: I use a Trend Strategy which uses a part of the "Third Screen Strategy" of Dr. Alexander Elder. First, I find in a D1 chart the global trend using the MACD indicator. Once the overall trend is clear, I use the H1 time frame to act in the same trend using the Williams Percentage Indicator.

AUD/JPY, EUR/JPY, CAD/JPY, NZD/JPY, and USD/JPY.

4 Max Positions per currency pair

D1 MACD - Uptrend

H1 Williams % - All positions were bought when conditions showed "over sold"

SL: 160

TP: 280

Risk/Reward: 1:1.75


Notice that the first position at the very bottom was opened 1 week ago on March 8th. The most recent position up top (AUD/JPY) was opened up on Friday.

*This past week was basically a "text book" example for the JPY cross pairs in regards to how this strategy works.

*Also note that GBP/JPY is not listed as the swings with that pair are too volatile for this particular strategy.

Hi all
But it's better give some info. during the market to help traders or give a clear description about weekly levels or at least for whole month
Unfortunately, most of traders like those who sell their systems and indicators and show or talk about their selling after everything be finished, draw some lines on charts and give ambiguous information about future or talk about something which all can see in their charts, nothing special.
Hope to see all more active
Cheers

Hi KamiFX,

I just wanted to clarify that the above positions were opened up throughout last week and are all still "active" positions with set SL and TP targets. I just wanted to describe HOW and WHY positions were opened.

Oh ok I wasn't sure. Thank you for clarifying. I also agree with posting analysis with charts to support projections instead of just one liners as they don't do anybody any good without details

Enjoy your weekend too!

Most of analysis in different sites about UJ is Up direction without indicating about Time Frames but i believe consolidating for 2 or 3 days with down tendency more acceptable till it finds clear direction, It's obvious that dominant trend is Up but Technically (H1, H4) shows down trend and Price Pattern (H&S) has confirmed this direction by breaking the Neck Line.
Right now we should concern two Key Levels:
Up: 96.27/35
Down:94.60
As i mentioned last week, 95.09 levels is strong support level and caused pair bounced back about 40 Pips and this week breaking that level causes the pair goes down more

US/JPY been taking longs for weeks

been really greedy then bang

it started crawling down

got caught with 2 longs which I will hold

as it tends to come back when you least expect.

So did pending 94.5 long 97.5 TP

With all the trouble they have gone to pump this to 100

I will be looking to do pending shorts 97.7 etc

These grasshoppers are getting sneaky

taking dumps when ever they feel like it

Quiet rude if you ask me

After the three week up run the Yen has consolidated failing to break above the round 97.00
level on the D1 chart. Trading within a relative narrow consolidation range.
Fridays break of the support at 95.70 may be begin of a down run in the near term.
A retest of the 95.70 could occur and open a possible down run to 94.18 observed earlier in march.
A break above last week's resistance at 96.60 may open a possible up run to 99.32 region.

After more than -100 pips correction, this pair always made new highs. It's shown on the charts.

Weekly Chart: As can be seen from the 1st chart 94.70 has acted as significant support / resistance in the past. Now that price has broken though this area it should act as good support.

Daily Chart: 94.70 is right where the 20 EMA is. Notice how price tends to respect the 20 EMA more than not. However, when deeper corrections / pull backs occur the 50 EMA will also act as excellent support / resistance which can be seen on 2-25, 2-26, and 2-27.

Hourly Chart: Price bounced very nicely at 95.09 (just like KamiFx said it would BEFORE it happened ) but if we see a break of current support then I would expect 94.70 to be the last area of support before resuming its very strong uptrend.

Needless to say I am still bullish on USD/JPY from a technical and from a fundamental perspective.

Curious to hear other's thoughts and opinions. Thanks!

U/j is currently @ 94.30! What a gap so far! If it opens below 94.50, then a drop towards 91.xx would in play IMO.

A weekly close above the 94.70ish area keeps this projection still valid.

Hit 94 come up a cent

caught some of that

Got me thinking now,as people talking 90 etc

The Grasshoppers will have to turn the Titanic around other wise everyone will be taking shorts

this will cost them even more trillions to push it through 97.5 etc
