Still holding my short from 102,330 so I would like you to be right on this one. But looking at the given situation it seems that the .400 plays as a magnet. From my experience I know that such 'magnets' don't hold too long simply because there are quite a few risk limits hidden there.

What will it take to break 400?
Time.

Yen is strong, seems like everything else is going down.
Well the good news is that I hooked up a long in EJ at ~139.70.
The bad news is that I just watched UJ as it bounced up and down.....

Need some Yen weakness please...

I'm short from the same exact price, and yes, third time up, chances are slim, but I liked selling this area before, so I can't bring my self to cover, my stop has been in all day, haven't moved it...

Another scenario here is that we'll break the zone just to get these vulnerable stops and then back south. Holding my SL @ 102,550 (ready to move a bit up). We'll see. Good luck to both of us mate.

Eating them up like pacman right now. I think 40 is a goner short term. Im too conflicted though on this pair so i'l just put the screen time in and stay flat.

For the bulls. There is something like an inv HS in M1. But it will fail, at least I hope so.

Looking like a little pop may be coming. 40 is putting up a fight but the buyers have been building. I put a small piece of change on the upside. Binary so I hope it pops before 11pm eastern lol. Those stops above 40 look ripe for the taking.

there is a lot of seller, because if we don't make new high now, than it can be a nice butterfly (that's right wing would predict a possible move under 102.000)...so maybe they push the buyers down, but when we reach fibo levels and other supports it will become interesting.

Hi traders. Back to USD/JPY. Sold the pair @ 102,330. SL @ 102,580. Wish all a successful day!
Closed my short for a small, 5 pips loss (0,1%). Might be re-entering. Need to see more of the PA.

For the record I thin 102.49 is the point where price will either decide to run up or turn back down. If it breaks 49 then a bunch of stops are in real danger. It could stall at this point but look for yourself...............on hourly chart it appears the last few days buyers have been picking up, clear divergence using OBV on hourly chart. Means there could be at minimum a short term burst upwards. If this comes to pass then 102.60 will get broken and 102.99 would be the next barrier. Thats what I see at least.

Of course for eager bulls I would be cautious because the daily is pretty much the Opposite and is showing a drop is in the coming. Trade your plan and both bulls and bears will make a few pips. I dont care which way it moves, I just want the darn thing to start moving
