Hi guys. I'm stuck in a trade since yesterday's FOMC. Im on sell usdjpy, got in at 120.330. Do you think it will come back? Im worried about BOJ news. Still qute new to this so (of course) im in with too big position (maybe i could make it to 122.025 before margin call). Any help would be appreciated. Thx

Good luck!... I keep telling myself when I'm in hard situations like yourself that I will not make same mistake again.... but after some time greed takes over and I find myself in the same situation... Very hard to control greed and fear in forex

Likely that BoJ will say "no need to do anything at the moment".

That should make Yen stronger, UJ come down.....

However .... I am often wrong.

Ha ha ha, so true. Same with me.
I hope it gets better with training and experience. If not, then its just a time bomb every trade. Just waiting for margin call.

I also think that option is a LITTLE bit more possible.
Probably ill just leave it alone and see what happens.

Usd/Jpy regain 121.00 level ahead of BoJ economic policy decision, the market is waiting for Japan release its half-year forecast, we will then have clearer picture of it's economic situation.

echnical Analysis USD \ JPY
Price: 121.11
Resistance:
1. Y 121.00 / 10 - hour resistance
2. Y121.25 - maximum 28 October
3. Y121.49 / 56 - a maximum of Oct. 23, 1% -s' volatility
Support:
1. Y120.40 / 50 - hour support
2. Y120.18 - at least October 27
3. Y119.63 - at least October 22
Comment:
Support at Y120.15 well played its part on Wednesday, when we saw further gains of bulls who developed the movement from the minimum of the month Y118.10. However, the pair still has resistance at Y121.00. If the couple does not overcome it, at Y121.94 not count. At the same time, support rises to Y120.40-50. Her loss will again threaten Y120.18, and with it - and stability in the whole of the last climb.

Here come the QE!

BoJ keep using QE (using Yen to buy assets)--> More Yen supply to the market-->Yen is depreciated

USDJPY breaks 121.25 then 121.47, and will be on the way to 125.00

Looks like you have talent for piking targets accurately

BOJ's Kuroda press conference following monetary policy meeting 30 October 2015 (which seems god for yen)

  1. Recovery moderate despite EM slowdown
  2. Virtuous economic cycle is working in economy
  3. Japanese growth will exceed potential in FY2015 & 16
  4. CPI will be about 0.0% for the time being
  5. Expects to hit CPI target 2nd half of FY2016


plus earlier at the monetary policy statement no further QQE expansion....
Not piked a direction yet but I think on London sesion and New York USD/JPY will go down

....well ....not exactly, no ....it is a bit like learning to ride a bicycle

Most of my money is in the stock market. At times I have made huge gains over periods that range from a few months to a couple of years. The reason I was successful is because I identified some depressed situations which were temporary and held my positions. So in trying to do similar things in FX there are a few different aspects, namely the drivers are mostly completely different.

Around news the market is (was) driven by analysts changing their positions and stance because some talking head said something different to what was expected. Sometimes the TH will say something completely unexpected, such as when Abe introduced the 3 arrows of Abenomics. So as a trader you might consider what would cause the TH to say anything in particular, and for Japan (any country has similar affects) there are the current concerns over deflation and economic growth. So if you listen to the TH over the months, Kuroda in this case, they share information about their concerns. Currently the machine tools and factory orders are surprising to the upside and that is good for growth, not many or no negative inputs ... so is there cause for concern here .... so what is likely to be said? Of course you don't know what their models are telling them, also this guy posts lots of document links that might be useful.

I remain amazed that Japan can issue so much fiscal debt and not end up in a situation like the one that slapped Greece.
