{quote} It's still not too late to buy. This thing is going back to 125.
How can you tell it's going back to 125? What timeframe are you looking at?

Look at the price action on the Monthly chart. And the double bottom on the Weekly chart. This pair has already bottomed.

I see it now, thanks for the sharing!

I've not traded a weekly/monthly timeframe before. In your opinion, if I'm seeking to TP at 125, should I be putting my SL in the region of 99 to 99.5?

At the 1H timeframe, it has tested the 103 floor twice over the past 24 hours, am I correct in my observation? If it breaks the 103 floor, should I be looking at the next floor to be 102.4 or 101.8?

Hi there,

Sorry for the delay. I don't trade the Monthly/Weekly time frames either, but I use them in my analysis quite frequently. It helps to have an idea of what the long term trend is so that you can avoid going against it.

I don't use stop losses in my trading and I would not recommend it. It is much better to use mental stops. Just have an idea of the biggest loss or maximum price you are willing to take and check your trade every so often to make sure it's staying on track. If it's not, then you'll want to check it even more often until you have a clear idea of what to do. Trade management is key.

Please understand that it will take some time to hit the 125 level. In fact, it's more of an "investment" than a "trade". It could take 12-16 months or longer, but it will get there eventually. Be confident in your analysis and own the trade, do not let anything stand in the way.

If you were to use a stop loss, I personally would put it at 95. But again, I don't recommend using one. I also don't expect it to fall below 100, so you should be fine using 99 - 99.50.

In the near term, it is likely U/J will fall below 103 although not guaranteed as the pair remains strong. I would not say it has really tested the level yet, but moreso a hiccup or pause. If it does drop below 103, I would watch the 102.80 and 102.40 levels for the next floor, ie: support. You can also add 101.80 to the list if it gets that far, but I wouldn't count on it.

I hope that helps. Good trading and best of luck to ya !

Had a friend who put in a fundamental buy USD/JPY at 100.5 and has taken half his position out now, I wish I had followed his trade there!

After reaching 103.50, UJ need some time to cool off. BOJ is unlikely to intervene at this level.

I see 103 - 103.50 play for the rest of the week. Before buyers comes again. And let BOJ and everybody assess the situation.

Sell if 104. SL 104.50. TP 103.50.
