Here's a question. Did BOJ actually started to print? Or it's just talk they will?
So far it has only been talk talk dude, the expectation is, they will start with bond asset purchase mid this week.

So how does a 4 wave look like....? Do you know it's mathematically impossible for a price wave to have only 4 waves? there are three or 5. EW is excellent when you can spot a clear pattern. It's like $$$ in the bank :-), but of course not without risk either.
Elliott Wave is retrospective bullshit. Nobody's ever made any money from it, not even Elliott himself. Pritcher and that other EW guru couldn't even come up with the same wave count.

All this was started with the announcement, and I believe there was heavy buying in JGB, but I don't know whether it is the BoJ yet. I remember when they first announce QE way back, the yen dropped like a stone just on the word. The Kuroda was voted it and it rallied.
When the facts change I change my mind, what do you do sir

I agree, it's very finicky, but it can offer some guidance.. I mean if it lines up with other things.. But doing those counts(and trade it alone).. I don't know..

We just made 1.000 pips in 72 hours champ, some retracement will happen soon, don't you think...? I will try to catch one of the tops and weekly res levels seem logical at this stage... 129.28 is the current R1 and that was the reason I decided to take a shot with a short entry @129.20.

It should by all accounts.. But will it? If you say they'll start buying this week, that might change the dynamic possibly..

They have been buying long term maturity bonds since Abe Shinzo was elected prime minister. I dont know exact time, but will have a look. Right now, Kuroda just promised to double the amount.

Of course mate, that is true. I am only after some tiny retracements. This doesn't feel like it has topped at all...

I really have no idea what are they trying to accomplish (inflation and all that..) but I think they're playing a dangerous game by doing it so fast..

It's also skewing all the other pairs.. I was reading the Chinese are getting pissed.. well duh.. how does that feel?

Pay attention to U/J @100.00 see the reaction at that level. If goes thru without resistance, stay out of short.

Got 300 pips of the UJ move so far. Closed out all tooooo soon. Tried to short this morning......
Wont attempt that again until price nears 100 and above. 99.70/80 area is the 50% fib of the last downleg.
Should be pretty good resistance just above 101.

Spot on. It has to line up and be confirmed by other factors. agree 100%. You can look at almost any trending pricecharts, you will find the EW patterns in most cases, if you look for it. I mostly disregarded this for a long time, but it's quite fascinating to see it on almost every pricecharts.

right. that's how it should be used imo if one wants to incorporate it into their trading.. It can be useful...Looking at m15 now.. its this a 3rd wave as part of the h1 2nd wave (which I turn should be a wave C of an ABC wave 4 correction)? maybe.. or just an abc correction w 2 on m15.. I guess that low will decide what in the world it is..

Looking at other factors, I think the low will give.. need another 35 min see how the h4 will close...

They are planning to essentially print themselves to happiness with $1.4trillion...something that I simply can't see working. 263% debt to GDP ratio is beyond awful, it's a miracle they lasted so long, and imo the sheer amount they're willing to print shows a great deal of desperation...similar to when the BOE raised rates during Black Wednesday, just in reverse.

Also, it "might" even work if they'd be the only nation devaluing their currency...but they're clearly not. They can devalue it all they want, if the other countries are doing the same the net effect is never large enough to solve the problem they're trying to solve.

Not saying the house of cards will fall right now...but imo it's only a matter of time. Probably sooner than later if China intensifies the economic war.

Also not helpful to have an ageing population like Japan...their seniors basically risk losing half their savings.
