Strange!!! I'm in a queue on Friday for a long USDJPY position at 97.50. When market open today with a gap up, my trade position was executed at long at 97.740. How does this work?

What was the first tick on your platform? if it was 97.74 then why would you be surprised?

Bear in mind a limit order is merely a market order in waiting defined by > or <

therefore a Buy stop at 97.50 will get converted into a market order when USDJPY price > 97.50, i.e. the first tick on your platform

Matter not.

U/J was closed at 97.38. You opened buy order at 97.50 hence it's a buy stop. Market opened at 97.725 your order was executed at first available volume + price.

Don't seem to go far below either because supported by XXX/JPY crosses.

Expected range 96.50 -97.80 if nothing changed (policy) or some extreme bad news that trigger risk-off effects.

Note: personal opinion.

Your thoughts on CHF/JPY?
No news re CHF or from SNB, CHF/JPY should be lead by USD/JPY but watch USD/CHF.

Gap up! 97.72 and still going
Hit resistance and dropped. Chart still shows USD dropping on the daily but rising on the the 4 hour chart. Things could reverse of course. Really depends on which chart you are following.

So far it is not good on the daily,not good on the hourly but good on the 4 hour chart. All depends on which chart you are trading off of.
