i feel like going short again but i'm not sure

profit taking is going on and people are closing their long positions so it might be a good short

Stab at a short on at least potential gap close potential. Area in the rectangle could already be an obstacle though. Edit: Out. Price is bouncing off of an ignored supply zone.

Yeah, I'm kinda afraid to do it. I'm short on E/U right now, hoping for the gap to close (or at least a big part of it). But since "normally" U/J has an inverse relationship to the E/U, I'm kinda afraid to go short on BOTH of them at once. I know the past few days that relationship hasn't been very consistent, but still...

Hundreds of pips gap up on EuroYen..... Euro and DollarYen both moved higher.
There is going to be some nice moves this next session/day. I'm going to the small timeframes to catch these moves.

A huge gap up has closed a bit after the first round of French election result, but rally still intact and the pair stay above 110 level. The gap could be fully closed, focus stay on French election.

From what I understand, it involves "risk sentiment". When some great uncertainty or worry happens, people tend to look for "safer" investments, and apparently the Yen is considered one of them. So when there was a lot of worry that LePen would move into the second round of voting with a good chance of winning it all, that scared a lot of people (more likely that the EU would break up). So they were hiding behind the Yen. But with Macron being her opponent, most people seem to think he'll win, which means they're no longer as worried... and so they no longer feel the need to run to the Yen. (I may be totally wrong... )

french election = euro = EJ action

eurjpy is the driver here, wherever it gives a short or stops the north train only then uj can close the gap

plenty to collect when the dust settles,

EJ on the other hand has already completed 70% of its weekly range today itself, so it will not be helping much
