DXY is still rising. Maybe that's the reason.

...now that it is too late, and I hope it comes back before you get margin-called, I also hope that you will only kick yourself over the loss and smile at the lesson.

It took me a while to realize that even though your have an account with 100:1 leverage the sensible thing to do is to use a tiny amount of that leverage. In fact I suggest 1:1 is a safe starting point.

There is nothing wrong with using most of your available leverage provided that you accept the risk, and probably use a stop-loss.

There is only one way to learn. It’s through action.

106.40 to 107.40 is 100 pips, is that not a movement at all?

If you pick the timeframe in a specific way, I suppose so. From another perspective, it's exactly where it was about 10 hours ago (which is when the post was made), and 14 hours ago.

Anyway, it is looking rather weak at the moment, so I think it's likely it will go lower soon.

I dunno. I was wrong so far about today but it still looks like this pair is ready for the rocket ship up

Data wasn't good, but is wasn't bad enough to drive this pair down for the day. Technicals will rule today.

The rocket ship will be loading up at over 107.41

Those who shorted the jobless claims look like they are trapped now. Maybe they provide the momentum needed to get this going up up and away. Eyeing 107.41 if it gets past their then retail short traders are gonna get pounded at least in the short term

If the rest of the day is technical then i would think 107.80 would get targeted and possibly beyond. bagholder shorts today below 107 will probably get stops triggered if this current move up holds.

Is it possible that financial institutions are buying because they believe oil will gain? I'm still new to forex and don't have to much experience trading USD/JPY. I just thought that people with money to back them up started buying because they believe oil is bottoming and USD/JPY would make for a good amount of extra cash.
The Yen depends on exports right?

We've quite a bit of time to see something happen. No way BoJ sits back and let yen get this strong. It'll wreck their already weak economy.
