hey jeremey, sorry mate but i didnt like your "no its not"

seems u dont have proper understanding of macro principles and.. i said yield "DIFFERENTIAL"

USD/JPY will correlate with yield differential that is US2Y-JPY2Y

its silly to just look at something which is relative, USD/JPY ie value of US dolalr vs japanese Yen versus something absolute ie in your chart only JPY yield

plot yield differentials ie US yield -Japan yield vs CCY and this principle is true for all ccy pairs..

currency is interest rate... i wont go into more details

well you are correct for all pairs expect the USDJPY

for example the EURUSD you would have DE-US 2 year spread. GBPUSD - GB-US 2 year spread

but for USDJPY, you don't use the short end of the curve, you use the 10's.

This is because the JGB short end does fuck all and 10's most sensitive to econ data as is USDJPY

But as you asked here is the differential vs USDJPY. see the correlation. me neither

UJ toward upper exit of the W triangle. Nice drive so far.

In my view we might be seeing 100/101 in Nov if this trend goes on....

I think we see a usd rally into 2014 still holding my UJ longs from 99.14 and not letting go

Yep... as mentioned in earlier postings, im targeting 104.45 for 1st primary target.... till then if no significant news coming, i will slowly shift my SL alongs..

Higher extremes are like 110/118....

So what is the direction now? Will it stop at 98.60 or go on?

Holding UJ longs and scalping other pairs would save the day (year). My cable shorts are doing fine, also. US10y t-notes rejected from 128 to 127.45 now. I hope all this stays in this way.

Same sentiments.... if its able to break 98.6 area... in my view a 99/99.3 area is a possible for this week.... if not, we might head back at 98.4 area....
