It seems like the yen has come into some decend support down here, I'd like to look for a low risk long play, me thinks....clearing 117.20 or so might help things develop..
still needs more time, and another try at 117.20 or so to develop something interesting...

{quote} Its not a gap in the chart, its the actual value eur/usd is not trading at an equal value that they are both separately trading against the yen. either way, doesn't matter...I shorted EUR/JPY and its working.
When GU was 1.50 some time ago, I remember GBP/JPY was around 125, now GU is almost back to 1.50 and GBP/JPY is at 177, 5200 pips higher...so don't even try to find any logic in YEN pairs, they aren't called widow makers for nothing.
Everyone can see the chart, but only a few can actually read it.

Hi, 116.96 was looking good earlier, but could not breach 117.20 so s/o break even. LOL, they could really hammer this down now ... a bit lower and stops triggered big time I guess.
Fix up, trade sharp ...

looks like the aussie is also in an interesting area, perhaps a push above 8105 will paint a clearer picture...
quite a decent push up, a pullback to 8081 is what I would look for, risk the lows, try for 8171...

think there is support from here all the way down to 115.50, so there is plenty or room to look for a set up osome sort...gl mate..

lol, I hear you bro, but what can you do....that 2 bar 4hr combo stretches from 115.50 to 117.75, big zone, I know....but if you like this zone, work off the lower TFs to look for a cheap shot...or pass, you can always pass...

At moment this up spike on GU looks like complete stop hunt and fbo. Break bellow 5140 would strongly confirm that. If we break that should be some good shorts downwards. But lets see climb above 5180 would confirm further up. Considering EU structure it doesnt look very probable for up direction.

Yes mate, sometimes passing gives you the most money because you lose nothing lol ... basically in no man's land here (at least to me) and it has to give some clearer signals to play this for me ...

{quote} Sorry, I disagree. Precision is not a lack of something, it is just a different approach. Timing is everything in trading. Needless to say one cannot get everything to the pip. But I agree that more capital makes it easier of course, since stops can also be wider!

Well, I was more referring to the OP post that seemed to be trying to explain every micro ebb and flow to the tick. Sounded that he was getting "frustrated" because he failed to recognise live a "tiny micro wave" (i am guessing it was a wave) in the middle of nowhere with London closed in the dead hours of US lunch time...

Point was not about timing but that fighting for exact precision in price especially in micro TFs is a loser game for 99.99% of the retail traders...

In any case, 1.180x held without much effort so nothing to do now except wait if Europe can make the break.
