Sooner or later, sell of guaranteed, yesterday prime minister abe said something than he is considering if yen
strengthening is good or not, with BOJ stop intervention market makers only can touch 110 (i don't think either)
then we are getting back to balance, 105 is very rational target until the end of october middle november
what is going up fast, is going down faster
Any short above 109 is a good short

Price stopped just shy of 109.40, which seems to be decent area of resistance for now. Although the dollar is being stretched thin, all other yen crosses continue to gain against the Japanese currency. I think 110 is definitely possible this week, but I would feel cautious holding it too long, as it feels to me any gains would quickly retrace at this point in time.

why it is going down with the good results
The results were at expectation. Usually news events are used to get better entry points. Unless the news is way beyond expectation it won't shoot up as you would expect it to. But just when you think it is a good short you will see it reverse and move up. If you are not already long wait for a bullish candlestick to form before going long. You never know how far this will drop. If you are already long then stay put.
The price will go where it has to go.

The results are not good, they are only in line with expectation.
Except for the durable goods which was more pessimistic than expected, even if the core figure was Ok.

Agreed. Taking a small reload for the long at the 108.5. SL at 108.2


And meanwhile, several giants like Deutsche Bank and Barclay are duking it out in their predictions. The former feels extremely bullish about the USD/JPY; the latter feels a more slow, progressive bullish outlook (trading around 110 in a few weeks/month).

Either way, since it's bullish, we'll all come out on top in the foreseeable nearby future for now (excluding those who get screwed over on a short)

The fundamental picture has taken a hit with this news and it seems it has not been able to recover so far. I am thinking we may be revisiting lower numbers, at least a retest of the weekly bottom. The longer term trend is still up but 107.50 becomes more likely after this.
The price will go where it has to go.

if 7:30pm ET japan CPI data and tom morning US GDP is favorable for the dollar then we SHOULD get back into the upwards action, but if not then yes, we def will visit lower numbers...

we are stuck between the 109.4 and 108.2 range

True that. I am thinking maybe the Japan session will pull this lower to rest on 108.2 before tomorrows number which might decide its fate of whether to resume upwards or to break below. In any case I don't see this falling beyond 107.50. I will closely monitor Japan open. I have a small short going separately but may decide to reverse my main position based on Japan open. Maybe I wil have to do nothing and this just keeps going up. Who knows in this forex world. I live candle to candle.
