The new rally

megajorko Publier 12 juillet  dans #Trader's blog #Yen #Stimulus Program
Hello traders,
The yen has started strong depreciation due to rumors that japanese bank will resume stimulus program. I have entered several orders to test how big correction they can make (GBP/JPY, USD/JPY, EUR/JPY and AUD/JPY) but there was not enough acceleration force to let me leave the opened positions.
I suppose I will wait to see how far the main pair- USD/JPY can go and if it breaks 105 than I suppose I will search for new corrections to go with the trend up. The problem is that Japanes…

USD/JPY to trade lower in January

The pair broke above a strong cluster of resistance (trendline that contained long-term downtrend in years 1986, 1990, 1998; 23.6% retracement of the 1982 to 2011 decline; 2007 high at 124.14). The pair retested the cycle-high (~125.85) in August before it sold off strongly amid concerns about global growth, China slowdown, oil prices and Fed tightening.

UPDATE 5: U.S. labour market report for December came out much stronger than expected as implied by ADP Non-Farm Employment Change which was released on Wednesday. Knee-jerk was to buy the dollar but moves were quick to reverse in lower yielding currencies. A classical risk-off mode that will likely continue well into next week and perhaps beyond it, all things being equal.

UPDATE 6: There was quite a lot of movement for a Monday right after the open. Moves across major pairs were similar with the dollar gaining against higher yielding currencies and losing against lower yielding ones. The moves were then more or less reversed. USD/JPY lost some 50 pips and traded down to Daily Support 1 (116.70) before turning back up and recouping the losses.

al_dcdemo 18 jan

UPDATE 7: Currencies opened the week with with risk-off gaps: euro, franc and yen gained about 10 pips, pound lost a couple of pips while commodity currencies lost 20-60 pips. All gaps have been already closed as risk sentiment improved. U.S. banks will be closed today in observance of Martin Luther King Day - that means thin liquidity and tight ranges but not without a possibility of an outsized move.

al_dcdemo 21 jan

UPDATE 8: The Yen continues to make lower lows and lower highs. Today, it briefly traded below August 2015 low (~116.20) and pierced 116 level which is an upper extreme of a strong 115.5 - 116 support zone. The support zone is a neckline of a big head and shoulders pattern on the weekly chart. If it gives way, measured move would target 105 - 107 which also includes 38.2% retracement of the 2011 - 2015 uptrend (~106.65), 2013 high (~105.5) and October 2014 low (~105.2).

al_dcdemo avatar
al_dcdemo 25 jan

UPDATE 9: Major currencies opened with gaps again but this time around with smallish ones in what appears to be the quietest open so far this year. Improvement in risk sentiment seemed to come after China managed to stabilize its currency and stock market. Given the magnitude of the bounce in stocks, oil and risk sensitive currency pairs it seems that an interim bottom may be in place. However, all macroeconomic themes are still ongoing, so it may be too early to speak of a reversal.

USD/JPY to stay supported

UPDATE 5: Japan will release several lower-tier indicators next week but nothing market moving. U.S. macroeconomic data released in the week ahead includes: ISM Manufacturing PMI, ISM Non-Manufacturing PMI and NFP report, plus a testimony from Fed's Yellen. Unless the data or the ECB or any external shock makes it move, the pair will likely stay in its recent (122 - 124) range until Friday (NFP).

UPDATE 6: Final revision of Japanese GDP showed that the economy expanded in Q3 rather than contracted. Worries that the country entered a recession were diluted last week after much better than expected capital spending report. This may put some downside pressure on the pair. Technically, the pair has been confined to a 150 pip range (122.25 - 123.75) for nearly a month. 50, 100 and 200 DMA, which are just about to converge, are a part of support band between 121.50 and 122.00. 124.00 - 124.25, which includes a trendline drawn off of June and August highs, may prove to be a decent resistance.

al_dcdemo 16 déc

UPDATE 7: Sentiment in stock markets improved today while ten-year U.S. treasury yield gained 7bp. In addition, there was a broader U.S. dollar buying throughout the second part of the day - a lot if it must have been position adjustment ahead of tomorrow's big event. USD/JPY rallied 120 pips from the lows and gained nearly 70 pips on the day after it bounced from the trendline, drawn off of August and October lows. The pair is currently trading just above the confluence of 50, 100 and 200 DMA (~121-50), which will need to stay above if it wants to improve technical picture.

al_dcdemo 28 déc

UPDATE 8: This week is probably the lightest one for the year with regard to economic data and certainly the most holiday-packed. There's nothing on the calendar from Japan, after Retail Sales and Industrial Production data were released earlier today. U.S. will publish CB Consumer Confidence, Unemployment Claims and Chicago PMI, which may contribute to some volatility in these thin conditions.

al_dcdemo avatar
al_dcdemo 29 déc

UPDATE 9: Last two weeks of a year are known to be the quietest in most markets. Low participation means low liquidity and usually low volatility. However, it's easier to move markets in such conditions and if someone decides to execute a big order, the move could be big too. That move is more often than not faded or at least retraced to a great extent as liquidity returns.

Will yen leave the gravitation?

megajorko Publier 5 nov  dans #Trader's blog #USD/JPY #Fomc #Rate Hike #Stimulus Program
Hello traders
There are some signs of USD/JPY leaving the gravitational force of level 120. There is something similar to a double bottom formed. Everything depends on FOMC statement this month which will give a clue on possible interest rate hike in December. There are no signs of Japan stopping their stimulus program so if the price exceeds 4-5% (125-126) there will be clear sign for new bullish momentum. On less than 3% jump the attraction of 120 will still be in play. We must follow the indi…

The ADP day

megajorko Publier 4 nov  dans #Dollar #Euro #Rate Hike #Stimulus Program
Hello traders,
Currently traders, investors and other moneymakers, are waiting for the ADP employment announcment which means that the market is thin and Volumes are small before the large liquidity inject the market.
Until now we can see EUR/USD has a Bearish channel with a possible reversal, USD/JPY, GBP/USD ( first is up, second has rised during Markit/CIPS and sharply fall afterwards )
Shortly there are a lot of Bulls for USD and only if a worst than expected numbers come the US dollar can f…

UPDATE 4: In this mostly sideways week for the pair, yen lost half a cent against the dollar. Weekly range was about a cent and a half wide. The pair gapped down on Monday, but the gap was closed in a matter of hours and the pair rose to 123.25 by the end of that day. Thursday saw a bit of a correction which didn't manage to break below 122.50.

al_dcdemo 23 nov

UPDATE 5: In the week ahead Japan will report inflation data plus few other economic indicators. U.S. will publish several important data points: Prelim GDP, CB Consumer Confidence and (Core Durable) Goods Orders. Both countries will observe Thanksgiving holiday. Technically, the pair still looks bullish but recent failure to continue much past September 9th high warns that a near term correction may be in the making.

al_dcdemo 25 nov

UPDATE 6: The Yen is currently trading in the lower half of one of the smallest weekly ranges of this year. There were some geopolitical tensions yesterday but it wasn't enough to make any significant dent in risk trades, which soon rebounded. 122 is key to hold but below it we have possibly even more important 121.50 level where 50, 100 and 200 DMA may converge in the days ahead. On the upside the first stronger resistance is expected at 123.75 - 124.00 and then around 125.

al_dcdemo 27 nov

UPDATE 7: In another sideways week, the pair has barely managed to produce a 100 pip range. It closed the week essentially unchanged. After a quick surge at the opening, the pair started to fall and touched as low as 122.25 on Wednesday morning. Thursday's range was one of the tightest in months as it measured only 25 pips. A new range appears to be 122 - 124.

UPDATE 6: After it broke the symmetrical triangle pattern, the pair fell towards 118 and nearly touched the big figure. It was essentially a fake break below 118.25 - 118.75 support zone which was followed by a sharp reversal. The pair hit the above-mentioned pattern bottom on Friday, which behaved as expected. Next week will tell whether there's any downside left or the pair will return back to previous range with the mid point near 120.

al_dcdemo avatar
al_dcdemo 20 oct

UPDATE 7: The bottom of the symmetric triangle pattern, that was broken last week, has been acting as a tough resistance in the last three trading days. The pair is creeping below it but shows no intentions of turning back down. 50 DMA has crossed below 200 DMA on Friday after it has been below 100 DMA for nearly a month. Last week's breakdown roughly coincided with the cross but the pair wasn't able to produce a significant decline.

al_dcdemo avatar
al_dcdemo 23 oct

UPDATE 8: The symmetric triangle was resolved in the most "market" way. Several fake breakouts to either side were followed by a "real" break to the downside, which proved to be fake. The pair seems to have convincingly broken above 120 level helped by risk-on sentiment spurred by ECB's dovishness and PBOC rate cuts. Stock are rallying and 125 is back in focus. 122.00 - 122.50 is the first strong barrier on the way there.

al_dcdemo avatar
al_dcdemo 27 oct

UPDATE 9: Yen rose more than two cents last week. It traded up to 121.50 and closed above 200 DMA. However, it has been falling since the beginning of this week, to as low as 120.15 in today's trading, before stalling. The big figure (120), also the mid point of the 118 - 122 range, shall hold if the pair wants to maintain bullish bias. On a break below, retest of the lower extreme of the range will come back into focus.

Yen Pairs On The Move

Daytrader21 Publier 9 avr  dans #Trader's blog #Yen #Boj #Carry Trade #S P500 #Us Dollar #Risk Aversion #Stimulus Program
The big risk event from recent session was BOJ rate decision, but it only was of big importance because market participants assumed that the BOJ would follow up with an upgrade of his stimulus program. The BOJ did nothing however the yen pairs were sold of in a strong fashion way but this only happened during the NY session.

What we saw with the yen movements was not a general risk aversion theme because the S&P500 and also the US dollar were not confirming this mo…

No probem daytrader21, I think this armike speaking respectfully defending his opinion. Clearly not, stop hunting define the whole movement in the yen yesterday, and I think the same way that daytrader21 about this topic.Armike I think it is clear that in forex, even OTC, there are manipulations, a week ago came the news that the FBI was investigating big banks operating in forex, because their employees by messages through the Bloomberg or Reuters terminals, agreed positions market. This makes clear that there are manipulations in forex, but I think due to lower volume than other market.

Sorry guys,I think is onlz misunderstanding. My opinion is a bit damaged by professional deformation :). It is very hard to explain, when we are talking about different stuff. for example Market - Forex. Manipulation - SLH. I am talking about Forex and SLH and probability to see something like this by small investor eyes on daily basis. My opinion is that is no chance to see or prove any SLH technique just by the screening a chart. that's impossible. 99% of breakout spike are definitely not SLH, and movements about 100 points are not at all. Thats my opinion :)

independeceday32 avatar
independeceday32 9 avr

I agree with you Airmike, it is impossible for a movement of 100 points, is to SLH, and previously I did not mean that the whole movement yesterday the USD / JPY was due to SLH, it is impossible, I just used a colloquial talking.
