Once it broke 114.70 that was my short bias finished.
Still playing it in both directions but no bias whatsoever.
I'm absolutely convinced 120.30/40 (120.39 is the price I'mn keeping an eye on) will now
be touched though.
News spike on Weds or a creep up till new year?
Who knows
Where price is now, it has been before, and will be again.

Red pinbar on the daily chart causing conflicting signals with weekly/monthly.

Best to stay away until the Fed on Wednesday. Lots of time between now and then, but I'd expect downwards grind no further than 114 to maintain momentum on the weekly candles, then you could see big spike up on the announcement, but I'll share my feelings closer to that time.

Last week the JPY remains bearish for the last consecutive five weeks and it still seems unpredictable, let see how it goes. Either it will meet the expectations of the Japanese Yen traders and global investors keeping an eye over it.

Dollar up = oil down and vice versa (most times). As for the Fed on Wednesday I will be watching to see if they surprise everyone with a 1/2 point increase. Otherwise 1/4 is priced in and probably will only bring about a short term correction to UJ.
Right i cannot agree more
that is what will happen (Hopefully) because 0.25 increase is already priced in 100%
so if Yellen cannot convince there will be more in first half of the 2017 USD correction might happen and winner will be YEN of course
that is what i am betting on..

I never hold trades into FED meetings. Probabilities are never good. A guessing game I can do without.

The problem with fed days is even if you are right, the initial burst of volatility takes out all stops first and then goes in the direction of choice.

Finally put a short on at 1.27062. SL 5 pips locked in already so that's cool.

I'll agree with you to an extent. observing price movement during the last three days price movement is mixed especially on an intra day basis but long term says buy the USD.
So in times as this I observe sentiment which from my point of view I believe there would be a correction or a short term dollar bears like a sort of balancing of books ahead of end of 2016 with that mind its now about picking the right currency at such volatile season for me I already sold usdjpy although I already closed some usdjpy positions so even if my stops are triggered I wouldn't lose .my theme for such periods is play safe and don't get greedy

I forgot to add you'll need some pain killers for times as this because nothing you predict is certain.

Bounces are not good enough for the past 2 days, it needs a dip down

And Tomorrow fed red will be well contained as it has been priced in for the past few weeks

No surprise if it is a non event
