the pressure is ridiculous on this pair.. no real explanation besides the same BS stories analysts keep on giving, oil drop, risk off, etc etc..

imo it all boils down to holding price down till fomc makes noise on wed... given data since last meeting, this will give us new highs
watch CPI on wed morning also.. that is big right before statement

been stuck in longs since the drop last week..

japan could drop a bomb right now and price wont move haha, it would probably test 117

U.S. stocks are doing bad. Many say it's due to falling oil prices, but what's for certain is that the U.S. stock performance does affect the bullish sentiment for the dollar on a intraday basis.

So this decline was expected when the exchange decided to dip U.s. stock prices. The thing is though, if it weren't for that, we would have likely gone up and tested the next decision point. We've touched a decent support around 117.50.

Oh well. Just sit tight and wait for news to come. Personally, I'm also watching the British data; the pound and dollar tend to go hand in hand against the yen.

the 117.40-117.50 area looks like a big time pivot area. If that can hold till fomc we could be making a bottom

True. Buying at this level in this strong bullish trend seems to have a better rr ratio imo.

Feel like this thing needs one last spike down to clear out all the stops before it turns.
Soar on my wings, you'll touch the hand of God, he'll make you King.

USDJPY has 160 pips range on average this week ....

Since it's still ranging, not difficult to scalp +40 or +60 pips just on H1 bar ....... rinse wash and repeat from session to session .........

Personal bias and opinion will not move the price just follow the market .......

Make up your mind to be analyst or trader to make money from this market condition ...

Shorting with a tp at 117, then buy limit from there w/ 200 pip stop. Think it will head back to 119 before week is out.
