Abe/Kuroda will eat you if you're short.

You may get lucky and milk a few pips, in which case good for you. But I'd urge those wanting to short to keep tight stops as the BoJ has heaps of ammo left for the rest of the year to prop the nikkei and down the ¥ (several billion bucks USD... eek).

Be careful guys, these central banks give no warning (and yes, it's in writing what it is they are attempting to do).

Well said !!!

115.300 - 115.200 seem to be holding well after japan close. Lets see what the London, Europe & US markets will do.

It may take days to recommence progressing. Personally, I would not be shorting here.

If Japan goes for snap election in Dec 2014, would the Yen weaken further?

Any comments?

Very likely.

Political chaos could wreak havoc to the yen pairs....
Buy at the Low, Sell at the High You make money by waiting not by trading.

...and if Abe's policies or even Abe himself get called into question, the whole "print to the moon" concept may be dead in the water.

I'm not sure that the yen will automatically continue weakening. If Abe goes, could see Abenomics go. If there's chaos, this could create risk aversion.

IMO: best thing. is to follow what the market provides, and not assume anything.

Hourly close below 115 would confirm a double top and go down another 100 pips or so

The first test will be the rising trendline.
The second test will be the gap.

There is an open Fall Line at about 108.9. http://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=496501

Well good luck to all the shorts here, because I personally think they will need it. I am watching GBP/JPY right now, since it is a bit more bullish than USD/JPY is, and it also has very close ties to the S&P 500, and all I know is that GJ is lookin' pretty damn good right now {quote} We're ALWAYS on the same page
