{quote} There we go, long from 168.20/00 closed @ equilibrium 171.60/40 and reversed. Target are previous support/pivot @ 169.80/60 or further to 168.20/00 @ initial long. If 169.80/60 hold as support I might get long again. Time will tell. Add: "Worst" Case: 166.60/40
Mostly agree. I see it lower for now but would definitely get long @ 167.20 area, if it stops around 169.50 that might be a good spot too.

Definitely long,Why? Possibly anything can happen, wait and see if it confirms itself as support or resistance. Because if it breaks 169.80/60 not able to close above even if it is traded above its resistance to me, im definitely stay short then until my initial long entry @ 168.20/00 and there I gonna do the same, see if it is Support OR Resistance. Just tell you to be careful, dont get me wrong.

Add:
By the way,
go look back to 169.80/60, it tested the level from below, then broke it to the upside and then tested it from above until it reached 171.60/40, this sequence might repeat again

UJ has rejected from its reversal pattern. GU looks like total crap. Yes, good support is down at 167.2 (should it get there). If that level breaks, it goes into the "cloud" and will normally then move to cloud base. That's a long way down. A UJ break below double bottom probably heads to its triangle apex.

ps I know exactly where you come from with your other levels, but we'll see.

167.20 is a big level in fibo. equal legs off the high is right around 167.

Yeah, 165 is really the big spot if we saw that. We'll see what happens in next 24hr.

I would just love this thing to clear all damned support and run down under 167. At least we can then walk away from the computer for a day or so and pick it when as it bottoms - and have a break from thinking about bloody support and resistance in a correction.

Looks like the bearish price action around the 170.7 area paid off. closed for 161 pips

Back.

Hope you didnt buy it. Thats what I was talking about. First target filled @ 169.70, still sitting on some lots @ 171.40, next target @ initial long @ 168.20

Yeah, um I warned you did I not? New bullish channels and all is just great and fixed because Turkey raised interest rates. An emerging market crisis in the making for years has been fixed in an hour. Do you really believe that? I was short from 170.52 and getting beat up some in Tokyo and London. Woke up to many pips in my favor and TP'd it.

Oh, sorry that comment was not pointed at you FX-Ray. Just the bullish mentality in general. I just see some hiccups in market conditions and believe there should be some kind of healthy correction before we head higher. My apologies.

This is my bull(shit)ish outlook, break above 170.8 and then onwards and upwards to 175
but this pair has spanked me one too many times in the last month. If it gets to 175, remind me not to trade it AGAIN

169 is holding but it is just not showing the same energy but it does not really have to either. It can crawl back up. Amazing. I don't know either right now but that taper sure did knock it down.

What signal? The bulls have towed the line in NY and 169 has held into the new day. Tokyo opens in 57 minutes. Think they will dump it on the taper news?

It's attempting to bottom. A break under the previous low at 168.7 says reversal (to me) . Hold here implies upwards continuation

It all depends now on whether UJ breaks much under its previous low.

If you look at a lower TF chart, you can see it walking along an ascending trend line (once broken for a moment). I think that is the line in the sand of either a reversal or continuation pattern. Or it's already broken down and is walking underneath the trend line.

Should it break out (down), that line will often be retested.

Thanks MPT. The Nikkei just tanked but GJ is holding on. Even though the Fed tapered another 10 billion USD on purchases they still committed to keeping interest rates near zero for a long time. That's why we are not seeing this "US dollar bull market" effect the European currencies much at all for now. The talk on new BOJ stimulus in April is starting to fade as prices in Japan are rising and the BOJ programs have become very effective in defeating deflation.

The fundamental reasons for these yen pairs going higher are waning.
