USDJPY Discussions

Recommended Posts

Concerns over the Thailand political crisis, as signaled by BoJ's recent release of minutes, became fuel for UJ. A break of 102.30 can be followed by 102.40, 102.50 and 102.65. On the downside, 102.20 and 102 level become renewed supports.

This consolidation period looks encouraging for a move up. I kind of jumped the gun but I am willing to wait. I think it will at least retest the 102.67-102.75 price levels

USDJPY pull-back could actually extend till 101.80-102.00, but the pair seems to have broken down from its recent trading range.

Would utilise this pull-back to initiate fresh short for initial downfall till 101.00-100.80 area and eventually to sub-100.00 psychological mark.

USDJPY showing clear signs of a break-down, but the same would be confirmed it breaks below the horizontal line support of the triangular pattern near 101.00-100.80.

USDJPY then could be vulnerable to continue drifting lower below 100.00 psychological mark.

Yen Rises to 5-Month High Versus Euro on Haven Bid

The yen strengthened to a five-month high against the euro after reports a Malaysian jet carrying 295 people was shot down over eastern Ukraine near its border with Russia, boosting haven assets.

 

The ruble weakened the most in four months against the dollar as the U.S. and European Union imposed extra sanctions on Russia yesterday over the Ukraine conflict. A gauge of the dollar dropped from a four-week high as a report showed U.S. housing starts fell to a nine-month low. Japan’s currency gained versus all of its 31 major peers as U.S. stocks fell with European and Asian shares and Treasuries rose.

 

“It certainly looked like we were going to have a little bit of a pullback, a little bit of a paring of risk, and it seems that has continued,” said Fabian Eliasson in foreign-exchange sales at Mizuho Financial Group Inc. in New York. “There’s been a little bit of yen buying and I would attribute that to a certain degree to a risk-off type of trade.”

 

The yen gained 0.4 percent to 137.01 per euro at 2:17 p.m. in New York after reaching 136.92, the strongest level since Feb. 6. Japan’s currency strengthened 0.4 percent to 101.30 per dollar. The dollar was little changed at $1.3523 per euro.

 

The Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index (SPX), which tracks the currency against 10 major counterparts, was little changed at 1,009.59 after climbing to 1,010.67 yesterday, the highest since June 20.

"TOKYO -- The Finance Ministry announced July 4 a reshuffle of its senior officials. Tatsuo Yamasaki, who was involved in a large yen-selling intervention, was named vice minister of finance for international affairs. Some market experts say Yamasaki's appointment shows the government intends to fight yen appreciation.

Japanese Yen Falls To Lowest Since 2008,

 

It was a banner week for the USD bulls as they pushed the euro (EURUSD, FXE, UUD, UDN) to the lowest level versus the USD since July 2013, and the lowest in the yen versus the USD since September 2008. It was euro and yen weakness that widened the spreads. Since the market was loaded with spec shorts, it has been a good week for those correctly positioned. Going forward, this means we are headed for trading sessions with increasing volatility. From personal experience, I know when traders have more equity in their accounts, they trade more.

 

The euro and the yen were both helped lower by government action to expand their respective money supplies. For the EU, this belated growth in the money supply is one of the factors which is sending the EU back toward another recession, but the ECB President Draghi's policies cannot be blamed. The US, UK and Japan were are all actively increasing the money supplies but this policy was opposed by Germany. As we have mentioned before, the German word schuld has two meanings, debt and guilt. This might explain the German reluctance to take on new debt. Now the entire EU is paying the price with slow or no growth and record high unemployment.

A good GDP print next week for the US will send this pair to 110+.

 

110+ is inevitable anyways.

 

Agree. Look at GBP/JPY... bounced off 17900 today. But I think a lot of folks holding their breath over Scotland vote.

    • The best and the most sure-fire way to avoid all these forms of nonsense is NEVER to send any money to anyone, no matter the circumstances they claim... Even your closest family members.   Whatever they claim will happen to them, let it happen.   There is nothing new under the sun...   You need to be extremely cruel.... Never send anything of value to anybody, no matter what they claim, even if they claim death.   If you can follow this GOLDEN RULE, you will avoid a lot of regrets, heartaches and disappointments from all areas.   I send money only to people I have promised before.... Or someone I am seeing face-to-face... Or someone I have confirmed beyond reasonable doubts from external/independent sources that they really need the money.   Otherwise, nobody under this heaven can come out of blue (unless my parents or wife), even my siblings and request money.   Over 90% of requests for financial assistance and are fraudulent.   After all, if you die today... The scammers (even in the family) will continue to live without you.   Those who are merciful, kind-hearted and soft-hearted are the easy preys and targets of these scoundrels - 419 scammers.   They like gullible people and hate tough/cruel people.   Do not allow anyone to cause you to feel guilty for what you don’t do… Those dubious people want to make you feel guilty for not helping. But you don’t need to feel guilty as long as you’re not the cause of their problems or the issues they have.   It is better to lose customers/friends/family members/anyone's goodwill and keep your money, than to lose their goodwill and also lose your money.   Because that is what will happen at last... I have lost count of how many people that are currently regretting giving out loans, just because they want to retain goodwill.   When you're trying to please people, you end up displeasing yourself... And you will discover that those who are encouraging you to be kind and generous are themselves wicked and stingy.   Esin o dede l’oro... Araye lo ko esin loro. (It's humans being that taught the horse how to be cruel).   The best way to avoid falling for scam is NEVER to send anything of value to anyone, no matter who the person is to you or how they relate to you on this planet...   And never try to get anything for free or reap where you don't sow and never try to get rich quickly.   Follow this: You will escape/avoid all scams, lies, pretenses, fakeries, headaches, sorrow, regrets, high BP, later in your life.   Ignore this rule at your own PERIL.   Have a nice day. PS: And scammers will be using AI also for impersonations, phishing attempts and deepfake tricks. Just delay indefinitely and make independent calls, research and investigation before you part with anything of value. If you can't go through the rigors, just ignore the deals. I hope the Western World will soon pass legislation to regulate AI and deal with those who use it for evil.  To get free, winning trading signals, please visit: https://t.me/predictmag
