I am starting this thread to talk about GBP/JPY aka The Orient Express.

Currently trading @12305. . . It's starting to look like a bargain. Of course it could go lower, but let's start watching it now and see what happens.

 

 

The first chart is the 4 Hour. I have drawn a preliminary TL.

This next chart is the 15M.

I have drawn a TL on this as well. Notice on the left side that the 15M starts on a point of the 4 Hour. The 4 Hour runs along the top, almost parallel to the 800 SMA ( black dashed line ).

 

If you noticed my "Radar Screen", you will see that price has been away from the 800 SMA for 2231 candles. Way oversold.

 

Also, not visible on the chart, above the 800,This week's Pivot. ( over time I have found that the GBP like's to hit it's pivots ).

 

We have 3 strong targets should we have a close above the TL on the 15M.

Still no pop to the upside... so her is a TL on the 1 min.

 

We went down thru S3 today. so TP would be The Daily Pivot @12257 or, play it safe and go for the 800 SMA on the 1 min, 40 pips above but not visable on the chart. Better to play it safe. Remember, Greed Kills.

We are witnessing an ab=cd harmonic pattern on the H4 TF. the expectation goes for the bearish case if the ground is ready and the supply excels to the demand.

I had a pending short 161 hit to 160.5 TP

 

An long pending 161.4 to 162 TP

 

thought we would see a bounce before it climbs again.

 

Since it does move a lot like the EUR/YEN

 

That is trading for you,to many pending orders in too many charts

 

Still reckon small shorts above 161 will be taken out any sudden down moves....

Hi Roobin,

 

 

I sometimes view the GJP/JPY as a proxy for risk. At the moment the markets do not seem very "risk - averse ". However, I do agree with you that G/J is due for a "Correction".

In your opinion, how far do you see it going down ?

I have broken it down to a 30 min TF and added some trend lines I see as some important areas of support.

Radar Screen:

Second line: number of candles price has been away from the 800 SMA.

Also notice that there is an as yet unhit WP between price and the 800 SMA

The price is moving inside a bullish equivalent channel on the H4 TF. A reversal will be on sight if the Ab=cd harmonic pattern is formed and its time is fulfilled. We are expecting to have the price dropped to the lower channel line by having the supply pressure in the market.

Here's a possible swing trade I am watching on GBP/JPY. Similar to the EUR/AUD trade we had last week.

 

 

Sell G/J @16970 S/L @ 1703 Close half and move stop to BE@16940 Final target16625.

 

 

Well so far we are moving in the right direction. The holiday week's, back to back , usually throw the timing out a bit. Thank goodness we will return to normalcy next week.

    • Date: 2nd January 2025. The USD Retraces But Can The AUDUSD Correct To 0.62320?   The AUDUSD trades at a 27-month low as the Australian Dollar struggled to maintain momentum in December and the Dollar has risen since the US elections. However, the Australian Dollar is increasing in value during this morning’s Asian Session due to positive Chinese Manufacturing data. Will the AUDUSD hold its bullish momentum to the mean (0.62340) of the most recent price range? AUDUSD - The Australian Dollar continues to struggle for sustained momentum! The primary reason for the increase in the Australian Dollar is the positive Manufacturing Data from China. The performance of China is known to be closely linked to the performance of Asian currencies such as the JPY but also the AUD and NZD. The Australian Dollar is the best performing currency of the day and is increasing in value against all currencies except against the JPY where it moves sideways.   The US Dollar on the other hand is performing relatively poorly, and is retracing after yesterday’s gains. However, traders should note that the bearish price movement is relatively weak compared to the recent Dollar trend. The US Dollar Index rose in value for 4 consecutive weeks before retracing this morning. Therefore traders need to be cautious that the Dollar potentially may regain momentum. However, if the Dollar continues to decline a potential target may be seen at the average price of the previous range. The previous range formed between the 19th to the 30th December with an average price of 0.62320. The US Dollar Index reached its highest level since November 6th, 2022 Experts anticipate that Trump will reinforce protectionist policies, potentially reigniting active trade wars as he has done in the past. He previously announced plans to raise import tariffs on goods from China, Mexico, and Canada, while excluding European imports. Shifts in foreign trade are also expected to influence the US Federal Reserve's rhetoric. The December median interest rate forecasts indicate only two 25 basis point cuts in 2025, with any easing of policy not expected to begin before June. The hawkish Federal Reserve is able to support the US Dollar in the longer term and potentially tariffs may trigger a lower risk sentiment. The lower risk sentiment also may trigger a higher demand for the US Dollar. However, this would depend on the upcoming Trump policies. In the short-term, the US Dollar will also be influenced by this afternoon’s US Weekly Unemployment Claims release and the Final Manufacturing PMI. However, higher volatility is not likely to return until tomorrow’s trading sessions. AUDUSD - Technical Analysis In terms of technical analysis, the price of the AUDUSD is trading within a retracement of the day’s impulse wave. However, the price continues to remain at a lower high and lower low. In addition to this, the AUDUSD is also trading below the main Moving Averages and below the neutral level on most oscillators. Therefore, if bullish momentum is regained, traders potentially may focus on a correction to 0.62320 at first. If the price rises above 0.62142, the price will see stronger signals indicating a correction to this level.   Conclusion: The US Dollar Index rose to its highest price since November 6th 2022 before the markets closed for New Years Day. The Australian Dollar is the top-performing currency in this morning's Asian session, recovering from its decline in December. Positive Chinese Manufacturing data boosts Asian currencies including the AUD, NZD If the price rises above 0.62142, it will signal a stronger correction to this level.
