The bull is strong for the Yen right now
No Yen bears are stepping in considerably yet. 100 maybe?

I am sure that this will go down further in the next two hours. Even the retracement looks like it cannot really get up under the heavy pressure of new bears jumping into the party.
Fix up, trade sharp ...

{quote} Still holding all of my 104.30 shorts. Very close to my target 100-101 range. Will close half of the position around 100.30. I was expecting 400-500 pips till end of March. That was way fast. A sign of strong bear market. I decided to hold other half of my positions by moving my SL to 103.50. My SL will move down as long as bearish stock market trend continues and UJ continues to go down.
Great man,

I don;t know what happens to me, but whenever I let profit run it always reversed against me and when I took profits it would used to run afterwards,

I would love to see 400-500 unrealized pips on my account LOL
kiss the trend

I was looking at the exact same thing. I'm lacking the conviction you have though. I only picked up a lot here, but if I see price become stable I'll pick up some more.

USJPY is experiencing critical 101.00 level. A h4 candle close below 101.00 will give the next short signal entry. and above it long

if we don't break 100 lower, we should see 100.10 - 20


that's just near term. on the high TF's you can see we started a whole new trend

{quote} {quote} Where you looking at fib levels on the weekly? I see some support at 101, but it could drop to 100. {image}
It's going to correct lower, IMO. I know there were some naysayers (Alexii), but the weekly chart did show the downside and combined it with fundamentals. Fortunately with my experience, I noticed the rounding resistance USDJPY had above 105. It was weak. Since the beginning of the year, yen has been on fire. And USDJPY will still go down if the dollar and yen are both up.

Primarily, the yen would increase as equities rollover (which they currently are). Not disregarding other analysis, cause there are a few great analysts here, but a perfect storm was brewing. Sell the rallies have down well so far.

The weekly posted on 1/10 says bullish target at 99.75 instead of bearish, but we get the point.

Hi Ken, good to see you. Can you explain to me as a Forex beginner why the break of the 1400 in Nikkei would be such a big thing for the yen to rally further against the usd?

That's the mid. Break of that level indicating further down slide for U/J and all XXX/JPY crosses.

Stay away from buy button until some good news to reverse risk aversion
