{quote} Oh yes, definitely. That wave 4 looks like mess much more than any EW structure. Plus I would not be suprised if it created some kind of tranctuation for wave 5 since we are just sitting on big resistence = June 2007 high. Maybe one "theoretical" question Dano12 - I see you use (or at least post) EW usually on price, which is not lower than H1 TF. It seems to me that the "messy moves" under H1 prevent from any reasonable Elliot wave analysis under H1. What is your opinion on that? Since I bet you have more exp.... you think it is anyhow...

I wouldn't hold short over weekend if that's not part of your normal plan. While it looked like a low risk short during the day, when looking at 1 minute charts, situation could change at any minute. I'm not certain that "minute" yet happened but markets open on sunday for some people earlier than others and those some people could take it higher. eg. it might hit stops beyond 124.5 and then come back down (or this could be trend that goes a bit further - I'm more used to ranges - it's bit easier to say when range ends than when trend ends atleast for me - when trend is trying to say it has ended it may still go a lot further so playing with leverage is dangerous)

32 pips under water. I have a bad amateurish habit of trying to call reversals.

While I see a different wave structure for this sideways (4), Dano12 has the primary counts on point. We just finished or are in the midst of an impulse (i) as part of the cardinal (5). Sentiment is majorly bullish, PMs have been waiting for a breakout for a while. I believe they will make this (5) quick and drastic, as the all important summer vacation is coming into play.

USDJPY swap arrangements between NYFRB and BoJ in addition to dollar strength within a Q1 GDP contraction make this almost a comically clear-cut trade. Bears beware the evolving macro play.

It has to make some reverse soon, maybe NFP will touch 125 and gives us a pull back ;-) ... but I don't care.. I use statistics, pivots and renko to trade.

Yeah, I got all my instincts on med-long term rise but it simply has to reverse for just a tad imo. It's overextended as hell. I'm dipping my long toe in atm but there's better than 50% chance for fishing better long positions before it swings back straigh through 125 or so... My 2 cents anyway.....

I believe that the 125 point is a good call. I think these charts point to it.

1. long term working ellipse, which worked as resistence in 6/2007 and 12/2005.
2. short term: EW count waiting for last final push
3. short term: evolving divergencies on h1

If it evolves well, it may be nice short (still, against the main trend, so kind of risky). However, question is what would happen next. There would be time to go lower till Friday since there is no macro from Japan. However, good NFP and other numbers from US may reaffirm hikes in September and Im not sure how this pair is gonna react.

The Nikkei just like many many major indexes is just beyond an all time high. The US dollar is in overbought territory. We are a tad above the June 1, 2007 high now on the monthly chart. I wonder how many rate increases are already built into this rate of 124 here? The bank of Japan is going to get uncomfortable with any surges higher. They only need it to be around 100 for it to work. Any more than that can have the opposing effect on consumers as higher prices snap the purses shut. How can CAPEX increase if things are that expensive for a Japanese company? 124.50 and down a couple hundred I think. Even a normal bullish retrace and we see 122.50.

Still short @ 123.73

On 2nd thought all the reasoning in the world can't fight a central bank and the BOJ has bought the Nikkei on over 140 days when it was going to close in the red. UJ could go to 125.

I don't believe wave 4 (on H1 chart) has completed yet. Bars continue to chop.

Drop to 123.30-123 area by NY opening should do it

Its in the air......Dollar has the sweetest smell.

IMO, it's the market force at play. Jap economy import will be hit hard by the devalued Yen.
