Ok, I shouldn't make you guys wait for an explanation... so here's why you should buy now and hold, for at least this week (if you are a swing or position trader, UNLIKE myself). Look at what I have circled in red: {image}

Got a funny feeling the fall will continue when US opens.

Tension not getting any better.

All green pips from good job data last week totally washed out within 2 hours.

Hope I'm right.....any views?

101.85 again proved as a good support for UJ. Blue line crossover of MACD signals a reversal towards 102 (20 EMA) and 102.10 levels, breaking which the pair can 102.25 level. However, a fall below 101.85 is likely to be followed by 101.70 and 101.60 levels.

dont like the double doji on the 4hr. bailed on shorts at BE. Will see if we can break the lows later.


if ISM is good will go back to trying a USD long vs eur or chf

ISM is good but USD not responding well.......

Maybe the bull needs time to overcome the hangover.

Nice positive surprise on the ISM PMI, ....nothing happens!
Are they all enjoying an extended May-day break (like we Brits)?

I know a lot are probably just in for short term but I look at higher tf's and see this massive bullish trend still very much in control on daily weekly and monthly timeframes here. While interest being paid on the long carry I dont know if shorting this is a great idea. I can see how it makes sense as we have had a nice double bottom in gold and markets looking quite extended at this point aligns with and correction the USDJPY but this pair has so many different things going on with right now, Best just to stay flat IMO.

European markets drooped and then came back to about break even.
US markets spiked down and now seem to be holding par, for a few hours.

This means the market sees value at the current levels, in the absence of any prime mover .....no change

I've been looking at that upward trendline too, but it doesnt look like it's holding too well. Reaction off it in beginning of april did not seem impressive. The wig on last fridays daily swiped out lots of stops in short positions.
we'll see what time brings. Happy pipping

Yes this rising triangle trendline channel here looks quite bearish in terms of a pattern, but even if it did break it still could be classified as a correction of the massive bull trend that has rocked out on UJ

Well without a doubt long term its bullish. BUT a nice good fall could very well take place. Especially if ukraine keeps escalating. However, one miraculous day all the JPY pairs are gonna pop some crazy day 200 pips in like 10 minutes and the bull run will resume. When? Well i'd make a boatload of $$$ if I knew. But I do know no matter how far this falls..........even if its 500 pips, this pair is gonna rocket ship to not just the moon but the stars. Maybe not this year, maybe not even next year but at some point on some unsuspecting day a LOT of people are gonna get their faces ripped all the way off by the move and a LOT of people are gonna make enough money to retire lol. Just my thoughts.
