If Fed hikes the rate, I presume that JPY will be stronger. The reason is, capital will once more flows into Asia, since it's more costly to do business in US. It's a blessing in disguise to Asia. So Fed, has to be careful. If they don't hike, then USD will be weak. One way or another, JPY will be stronger.
Ah, but at the same time, the value of holding USD goes up. More importantly, hiking rates in 2015 entails a sign of federal faith in the economy, which also attracts investors (flight to quality; EU is still in one giant mess; Draghi isn't too happy and Japan still in recession/processing of devaluing currency more). Don't forget: fundamentals and government policies still favor the US over Japan.

All in all, if it happens, Fed hike in Dec = start the prelude to the JPY devaluation (BOJ+Abe Shinzo still expect a weaker yen in the years to come). Question is how many times will Fed talk about rates/actually hike rates in 2016.

The big whale investors tend to prioritize overall state of economy in the years to come over singular factors like cost of business.

Normally I'd say anything can happen, since I'm a daytrader and trade daily spikes/swings, but in this case for mid-term/long term, I just don't see any rational reason for JPY to continue to rise in value against the USD.

Fed hike will cause so called hot money to flow to US because of higher yields and that will drive dollar higher​

adapt your stop to current volatility, if stop too wide then lower size; try to use ATR parameters to calc your stop

Very informative. Today is going to be clear for the dragon. Either up or down. Either 184 or 194. So, trade carefully.
