Also, you should master the relationship of news and PA. Price reacts to news and there is always a run-up that could last for a day or even a week.
When I say ADR, I do not just mean it. I mean it in relation with the London closing time. Learn about it, it will greatly improve your trading. Not to forget about the thousands of hours staring at the screen.. the more associations you can think about the better your results will be.

That wasn't major news that moved USDJPY, and it moved upwards on negative news, opposite of what it "normally" would do, just as it's done in the past.......

It's nothing new and it's all been covered in the thread before.

There are so many posts on this, I posted a pattern and a level count myself. Yes, I could have been wrong all the way but I am not suprised, I was long and closed my last position at 104.36 today because it has hit the 5D ADR line. I do not know what next is. Need to look into it, I am busy with other trades.

Apologies for the confusion, I reacted to mti's comment with no reference to today's move. I have no idea what moved the UJ pair today, although I think that the interest rate issue gives a lot of room to the price movers.
