Heavy heavy resistance at 101. Bearish technical yet fear of BOJ action at 100. This pair is gonna offer a wild ride in next few days!
Its all in the mind.

It means NOTHING! For GBP/USD also was veeeery many longs at 1.29, but what happens? It felt to 1.2870 and if there wasn't good news, it droped 1.28 etc... And 70% USD/JPY long was yesterday also, but it reached 99.60...

I take holiday today and close all my trades till FOMC.

The multi year bull market for the dollar is definitely over, but retail is always catching falling knives, this is why they can't win.

green box at top is minimal target...

blue lines are st positions for longs.... green lines still stand from last posts... they offer best RR

Unlike others (seems like the 95% here) I use all the tools available and don't "knock it if I haven't tried it". Its almost always smart to go against the crowd.
