Quoting abokwaik
My earlier long @ 99.25 from last week closed today @ 100 SL with 75 pips. This was 1/4 of the original position. My net on the whole position was +85 pips (1/2 closed @ 100 + 1/4 closed at 100.40 @ the last 1/4 closed at 100.) I believe 99.80 was not so bad for re-loading longs, but I'll wait and see what happens around 99.50 - 99.65 level.
My pending buy limit was triggered at 99.60. I have it @ break even now. 1st target 99.95, 2nd target 100.15, 3rd target 100.35. Lets see how this will end.

Large 99.75 and 100 option interest at the 10am cut today. I'm expecting it to float around/above 100 for the next hour. Should see some direction after the cut.

nice work

hesitant to enter any longs until i see what is going on with $ as a whole, i see EU begging to test 1.355x before dollar strength comes back. although it's struggling.

If bulls really want to do something real, they should push the price over the magic zone at 100.40/60 , right now UJ is dancing on a thin rope at 100 .

ps

The yen looks like it's on the verge of another collapse.

If Eur/Jpy breaks through 136, then I think we're in for some fireworks.

As we are approaching weekly open price, I'am thinking of moving my TP on last position to 100.60.

There's calm before the storm. I guess everyone is waiting for Bernanke. Just look at eur/usd chart.

For real.

Maybe later Bernanke will be the directional catalyst we need.

USD/JPY looks as buyable here as it ever has. I'm long some more here with stop at 99.79. U.S. equities sold off again today, while U/J had a positive day so that correlation is diverging just a bit.
