Broken out of down channel. But 114 providing resistance. might be best to play it cautious with this breakout as it may be a trap. USDJPY Channel breakout.png;2185599 {image}
I definitely think price will go down, at least short-term, towards that lower channel line. It's just a matter of time.

yes it looks like it can go down to 112.5 if monday low breaks

pretty good supports on h4 down below to choose exits

I too like that 112.50 level, for chance to get long that is...but it sticks out like a sore thumb right now...I'd maybe take a shot at it if we got to it in this fashion however...

Closed longs @114.5
Expect retrace to the 112.8 to reopen. Target 115.3
Probably will take a little short.

What I call a modified or "irregular" Wolfe wave. Pretty simple trade looking for some short pips. Decent symmetry, had to pull the trigger here.

Had longs at 113.6 from Monday, quite happy to see it move up to 114.5, I was hoping for 114.49 which is the start of S/R area on my chart. I saw it bounced off the previous downtrend upper channel line last night as well (last night AUD time), which made me confident to keep this into the FOMC stuff.

Not sure what is immediately next, however would anyone agree with me that's there's a bullish bias on daily, 4h now?

Unsure, could drop down some, maybe to around 113.7 - 113.8, then start up again during Asia session. Could just start rising from this 114.25 area also without moving down at all. I am hoping it drops down so I can load up more. Tomorrow's US data is critical. If the numbers come in as expected or better, I expect it to rise tomorrow and hit 115 or possibly continue higher to 115.5 or 116 by the end of the week. The chart is telling me it's going to continue up in the next week to two weeks, as long as the US data continues to meet or exceed expectations.

Gold, Bonds, and the other majors are all poised to favor a stronger dollar, all depends on the data for the most part.

Asians may try to push down early to blow through USD bull stops so they can load up for the up move at a better price imo.

I'm thinking the same.
As long as the US data is in line and Trump keeps his mouth shut, 115 should be an easy hit.
Let's see if it can stay above 114.2 in the Asian session.

I'll give up my bearish stance if price exceeds the 1/27 high. Else, I'm staying put...

where the next resistance at ? 114.76 perhaps, not seeing much that's near by anyway...I cant read the PA up there, too messy..not worth trying, better to wait for something cleaner....

Perhaps NY session will paint a clearer direction. My guess is that it will try to test 115.
