And the JPY is still moving. I so badly want to jump back in, but my gut tells me that I might be greedy, and nothing good comes from being greedy in this business. Anyone still in the JPY trades at this point?

Well I am looking at E/J price action touching the daily upper trendline that is around 125.60 area... If I still had some positions open that I wanted to close I would look to see if there was a failure to break this and if so close for profit. Live to fight another day... :)

yeah 125 is my target lol. it just feels weird being in a position that is actually doing what i want lolol

If everybody is selling the yen across the board.... it begs the question Who's buying it ?

I read Bob's assessment of the BOJ and Yen situation and took his advice to heart, recognizing that these opportunities won't come often. I scaled in heavily with both orders and lot sizing. It paid off.


Thank You Bob!!!
