Why even think it is just going to stop at 120? Could easily just go right on past and head for 125 - 130.. As fast as it's risen to 120, who knows how much further it could go.

{quote} You was right , trend is up and you are on right track. I was wrong. good I stay out and just looking.

Why you so anxious to sell on an uptrend? I wouldn't sell UJ until trend becomes much more volatile, like it was in October. I wouldn't be looking for that first big drop. I mean how many trader can really find that first big drop without missing so many times before it actually happens that by the time they do hit it big, at best, they are at break even.

I have closed my positions for the day. This is a area of resistance and i think we could see a sharp pullback before Friday. I have long entries at 119.90 and 120.00
Good luck and may the odds be ever in your favor!

why would anybody want to short Dollar. Yen is very weak, i don't want to buy yen anytime soon. if i would want to buy Yen Aussie/yen short looks good to me atm with a tight sl.

I think if 120 is the base of bears, they won't let anyone touch this level.

Look for UJ to find support at one of the following levels.
119.74 (current level)
119.59
119.43
119.24
119.12

I do not see any sign of UJ turning back yet, and target for today is 120.65+

It will be at 120 soon. Support at 119.775.

It Was a good continuation through the 119.50/60 New York Cut option expiry today. I had wondered if the bigger valued expiration 900Million/1.4Billion below would have enticed a mechanized short term decline. Yet the unit was too close range to the opposite range expiry quotes.

With the 120.xx Option Barrier proposed still in effect Magnetic attraction is obvious With the cant go wrong buy anywhere and get paid within any 24 hour cycle for some time now.
This has been a rare trading pattern and "cash cow comfortable". I would expect a caught off guard move to be lurking just beyond headlight range to unfold.

I am not trading this thing either way right now as I am too eager to put on large shorts, It's been good and easy, Bird in hand is better than 2 in the Bush!

I only trade the price. I don't let the news influence my decisions. If price moves, I don't care why, I just trade it accordingly.

Having said that, my post was only for today, and only according to what I see happening right now. My view could change if price dictates a change of view...

I think it's pretty clear someone is buying here, and I don't mean me.

I am like Benaiah, I do what the price tells me to do. But maybe The Fed or BoJ is buying here? Seems reasonable to me.

tomorrow we will be breaking up slightly 120 level and then small correction would be reasonable.

Next 15-30 minutes should see direction confirmed near-term. Either make another run up or fall to next support level down...

I'm pretty sure this pair is being manipulated right now as we speak. It is going higher, but I'm not sure when. It could be a few more hours still. They don't want to see this skyrocket to the moon because that's not in anyone's interests except us traders.

Almost reminds of those Friday triple-witching hour crooks.

Hmm... Why do you say next 30min? Can you explain? Do you mean Sydney market opening?

All I see, from the price, the earliest would happen at approximately 4h mark and then possibly between 12-16h mark. I don't see anything happening within next 30min unless we count Aussie market opening.

Swaps were calculated for the following day just 5 minutes ago. I think that is what Benaiah was referring to. A lot of brokers will shut down during this time because of volatility.

Seems to be headed higher now though...

There always is, nothing happens for no reason. People should question anything and everything and if you don't you're simply limiting yourself to what you think you know when it just may not be what it actually is.
