Hey people! There are some reports coming out marked with orange and red on 25 (soon). What do you think about it? Who's gonna trade it? Any recommendations?
It will defintely move the JPY (sideways).

Bet 50% equity on EURJPY; straddle +20, -20 and hope to catch any movement outside 10 pip range.

Sorry for stupid questions, or maybe "non-native-english-speaker" question...
What do you guys mean by "straddle"? Is that an amount of of MOVEMENT up/down you mean or the distance from current price before the news come out you suggest to put buy/sell stops?

ThankZ

Hello ltljon

straddle means u do (stop buy....stop sell) away from current price
IF GBP AT 1.8888
and someone said i gonna straddle with +20 -20 so this means

Buy stop at 1.8908
Sell Stop at 1.8866

If that number comes out higher then expected, watch the eur/jpy fall off a cliff...
The last time I watched USDJPY, it didn't react to the news release at all. Is there a chance we see some movents this time?
That's a holy grail, merlin

BOJ will make sure those numbers aren't higher then expected, at least not yet.. but sooner or later will get a repeat of Dec 13/05 (gbp/jpy).

Sorry for the post about this subject on the other forum.
Anyone have past charts for this news release?
Is it me, or JPY actually did not responded in a single pip from those "news"?
We still have another half hour before the news release.

jpy is going to come out with a smaller than expected cpi # IMO
i read where they took off 48 things that they used to use to calculate CPI
and they only added 33 things.
seen estimates that it should drop cpi .2-.3 below what was forcast before the changes were announced a week or so ago.
Once again, you all have 0 idea where the price is going to go. All the analyst remarks and predictions don't mean a thing. How can you know where the price is going to go when the price itself doesn't even know?
