{quote} Didn't know you trade yen as well! Thought you only trade GBPUSD.
While it is true that I participate frequently in the cable thread, I trade any currency pair (28 to be exact).

Nice to know that. I always follow your post in the cable thread with interest. Now that I know you trade the yen as well, mind if I ask your view on the GJ ? It doesn't seem to be going anywhere. It has been in the same zone. I know you trade the breakout, would be interesting to see it from your pov / system.

Hi:

I don't limit myself to breakouts, I trade reversals too.

About your GBP/JPY question, do you want my opinion as a day trader? What time frame do you usually use?

Thank you for your comments.

Reserve Bank of Australia Meeting Minutes at 7:30 PM EST, this could move both the AUD and the NZD in a big way.

Stops for GBP/AUD and GBP/NZD now set to 40 pips to avoid spread spikes after 5PM (EST).
(Please trade at your own risk).

Short EUR/JPY at 120.10, 30 pip stop.
Out at 120.15, 5 pip loss, trade is going nowhere and just tying up capital.
