no, i am not a day trader...

i shorted this pair at 102.8, 103.1, and 102.5 respectively (around those levels), and still holding my shorts, and keeping a close watch, things can turn on a dime

So you don't close none of those ? Take care, because in my opinion this pair is set to grow on weekly / monthly !

Vlad, I agree with you, that after this down move/consolidation is over, this pair will head higher... maybe up to 110... but, this trade has become highly over played...so mr market is gonna teach us all a lesson... and soon...

I am keeping a very close eye on this thing... the last 2 weekends, I haven't gotten much sleep to be honest, too much headline risk from this pair... Im seriously considering closing out my positions just so that I can catch up with some time with friends, and get a good nights sleep...

Next week, we have huge data from everywhere, should make for a highly volatile week...

thanks!
"pot of gold" is relative of-course!
i try to avoid allocating more than 5% of my book to any position, i'm a sucker for risk management... it has saved my ass more times than i can count
but i am quite happy with the way this one has played out so far...

Nikkei futures still weak, Considering the NY options (end of week and end of month) at 100. I still see a small chance of testing it later if Nikkei doesn't ruin things.

Here's a question I've been pondering recently... Does the Nikkei drive the UJ, or does the UJ drive the Nikkei? They are highly correlated, that's for sure, but I can't tell from my charts which one is primarily driving which. Maybe a bit of both.

And while I'm at it, how weak would the yen have to get before it had a negative effect on the Nikkei? Japan imports more than it exports so at some point it would start to hurt the economy and the importers' share prices more than the exporters. This current UJ rate seems about right for Japan so why are the Nikkei and yen still so correlated?
You reap what you sow.

I just need this pair to climb back up to 101.70 then I'm out. Hopefully I didn't screw myself by entering this pair right before it decides to plummit....

I'm looking for a breach into the Kumo on H1 and after that a confirmation to the 1st resistance, the data from USA should sustain that on fundamentals, but if I don't see a breach I will close my longs and take it again from the support levels.
