Ok that seems to worry me about getting short on USDJPY in the near future.

Japanese Official: Recent FX Moves Are Rough, Closely Watching FX Market With Sense Of Urgency - RTRS

Does not bother the trend but certainly the 200-300 pip spikes are a concern if this happens. Maybe we should just watch, try longs around 110/111 but lets not get caught shorting when they do it haha

This pair having a much needed rest today. I filled my little short earlier, had to go out and missed programmed order to sell at 112.07 by a pip, then stopped out on that

false break up. Wondering if shorts are even a good idea now. I suppose BOJ could have a standing order to quietly eat everything up as the price approaches 112.2. The

BASTARDS have ruined the funnest game in town.

If I were the BoJ, I would short the yen for a clear cut through 113 and reverse this down trend.

I shorted and I'll probably keep it open until the pair reaches 110.00.
How is your short doing ?

Something to keep in mind here is that China may devalue their currency next week and if they do decide to devalue it the YEN may drop along with it.

Thanx for the info. Does anyone have ideas if 113 is a good short position?

A positive retail number means dollar can weaken. Good for Gold and Silver though

Just a short run on the last leg down before the rally.

I may stop by Hong Kong on my way to Germany next week. It is either a stop in Hong Kong or Thailand. I am still short YEN personally.
Will try and find out then update you. If you have Wechat pm me
