GBPJPY: Sell the pull-back, targeting 147.700

Updated
Hey guys,

I am opening a new idea about GBPJPY so that you can zoom out on the multi-timeframe charts. As you know I am seller of this pair at the moment.

I will wait a pullback and will sell it.

I will target 147.700 but it could potentially go lower.

Happy trading

Jesse

Opened my position because it looks like this level is not supported by buyers anymore.

volume is decreasing, sellers should be back soon

Comment
This pair is really crazy lol

Adding more to my shorts

Sell it high!
Comment
Keeping my short position

For me it is an agressive pullback nothing else
Comment
Very agressive pullback indeed but The downside should resume
Comment
It has decided to test this top cluster again but volumes are not in = going down again
Comment
Look at this b*tchy pin bar on m15
Comment
Ok now let’s hope it reaches target as fast as it went up crazy over the last hour
Comment
I mean who would dare buying this seeing m15 candle ? It’s a 30-pip pin bar
Comment
oh oh!

Maybe of neckline testing but it should now go down for good !

PATIENCE GUYS! :-)

Yes it could be H&S with parallel shoulders, but of course on M1 it's not as powerful as on H1 or H4

Off the screens for a while, I will update soon
Comment
Going down nicely, finally

b*tchy pair
Comment
must have caught a few bulls in its way
Comment
The pair is playing with our nerves but for me technically it is bearish.

Last update for the day, I have got a bad headache today

Sorry wrong copy paste

H4 H1 and M15 are showing the same thing FYI
Comment
Hi guys

Big news on Brexit’s agreement during the Asian session ! This has been interpreted by the market as positive and therefore changed the setup unexpectedly!

Since I did not put any SL I am still in this trade, I will watch what happens during the London session. My view is still bearish though.

I will watch if it bounces from previous resistance or not.
Comment
Still stuck in this F**** Trade.

We are at a resistance zone again.

For those complaining in PM keep in mind that I am not God. I have used exactly the same strategy as with my other trades.

I don’t use SL because I consider SL are manipulated by market makers, they know where they are placed and play with them.

If you see a few bars ago on H4 the setup was indeed very bearish.

Thanks for all your support

Back in a while

Quick update ***

For those still in this f* Trade

Shorts just woke up. I hope they do it for real now.
Comment
Guys just read that:

´The up-move ran out of steam near the very important 200-day SMA after the UK PM office dismissed the report and the UK PM Theresa May reaffirmed the same by saying that the UK will be leaving the customs union.´
Comment
This is why it is going back down
Comment
The news was about GBPUSD, for your information
Comment
Thanks for your positive comments, you guys are amazing!

I will detail probably this weekend my strategy. The goal is for you to share those setups in my idea posts whenever you see them and to bring as much as information/inputs as possible in order to take a trade or not.

I believe that the more people are focusing on an idea, the more it has a chance to succeed.

We will work on a selected pairs only, but I will explain this later on.

Cause in the end we are all here because trading is a passion. We are also here to make consistent profits and money.

Looking forward to starting this new adventure with you guys.

Rejection at fib level + top of the channel

The target now could be seen lower.

snapshot
Comment
I have added two fib legs, and there is an interesting area for the target

Check this out guys

snapshot
Comment
So 147.300 could be the new target guys
Comment
The strategy I will describe later on are based on trades which are open max. 1 or 2 days targeting 1 or 2 fib levels only, especially with volatile pairs.
Comment
I am about to go out a couple of hours.

It is really sunny in Geneva today (we've had a couple of days of heavy showers) so I will take advange of this wonderful weather :-)

Before I go check this out guys.

This is what happens when the pattern and the volumes are diverging.

Does that remind you of something?

snapshot
Comment
I hope H4 stays the way it is now and doesn't want to and test the top of the channel again. But I doubt given the strong downside we've had over the last hour.

See you guys!!

On my phone right now. What a crazy f* pair !

Forming currently a potential hs on m15 but should not go higher

come on bears !!!! juste validate this lovely double top !!!
Comment
this is the only divergence in terms of volume which could TEND to say that bulls are maybe less agressive....

snapshot
Comment
Similar scenario, the 9th of May.

on M1, OBV divergence look what happened

snapshot
Comment
note that the divergence of these days is MUCH MORE important than the one I showed you previously.

Gosh how many posts for one and only idea? hahaha
Comment
snapshot
Comment
Don't know why but I like the look of this hs pattern lol

Looks proper than the other one
Comment
If this HS pattern is valid we could have our reversal

snapshot
Comment
As long as price doesn't go beyond the right shoulder this pattern is still valid

Apparently not. What a f* pair
Comment
We'd better be rewarded for all this pain and patience LOL
Comment
Just got back in the pattern.

Expecting imminent downside otherwise the pattern is no longer valid........

snapshot
Comment
Bearish divergence formed on H1

Looks like the smart money is ready to sell anytime soon....


snapshot
Comment
For those of you who are PM me here is the reason why it is stuck at this level: we are at a fib retracement.

Expecting to go AT LEAST to the bottom of it very soon...

snapshot
Comment
Guys what is the impact of CPI on this pair usually, I mean historically? It is super violent ?

I don't like having open positions while I am sleeping
Comment
I am expecting an imminent drop !

snapshot
Comment
Would be great to have a lower low forming, it seems it has started

snapshot
Comment
lower high* sorry
Comment
Making lower highs verrry slowly
Comment
H1: 4 pin bars in a row

It has maybe started....

If it has to drop hard, it's today !

Are you guys ready for the drop ??? :-)

Happy friday
Comment
The slope of the wedge is nearly vertical, suggesting the drop is gonna be sharp
Comment
I have updated the chart according to my strategy. This will be discussed and used soon.

snapshot
Comment
Testing the bottom of the wedge. Should not go higher
Comment
Ready to drop, I have added some shorts

snapshot

*yawn*
Comment
If you check historically this pair usually likes to wake up a bit later than other pairs at around 10.30/11.00 Paris Time, so in about 15 / 45 Minutes. Let’s make another coffee

Come on ! Neef some excitement for the last day of trading!

149.800 being a new resistance

Comment
The game has started guys
Comment
Let’s hope now it goes down fast and does not create any sort of pattern inside the pattern until it reaches our target :-)
Comment
Ok now it’s Time to relax !:-)
Comment
Next week we will work on our entries, need to master them! Back in a while
Comment
Has room to go all the way down to 145, remember what did EUR/AUD (check the idea if you haven't yet).

But my target will be one fib higher, as shown

snapshot
Comment
Guys, hopefully it will go and test the bottom of the channel which is also a fib level.

I will therefore target this area FIRST. Wait for a pullback and short it again.

But my first target will be around 148.50 which is a confluence zone (channel+fib level). The fib level comes from the bigger structure on the left as shown.

snapshot
Comment
I meant today* obviously. Final target unchanged !
Comment
A little Zoom

snapshot
Comment
Closing your position at around 148.50 is the safer solution because a pullback will occur at this area.

Let's hope it goes all the way down within the next couple of hours!
Comment
I think it could touch this level by tonight.

It would be already a very nice profit and happy to book it in my account ! :-)

We should divide this long trade in two steps IMO...

snapshot
Comment
I think it's gonna make it guys, bears are being quite agressive lol

would be a wonderful end of week !
Comment
This is what happened a few days ago when price was at the top of the channel and went down, just as today.

Look how many hours it took to go from north to south.

4 hours !!

snapshot

The exact same story could repeat again today
Comment
Pulling back before going down again.
Comment
Volume on m5 and m15 bearish the downside is resuming
Comment
M5: Price just broke the flag
Comment
It could be a channel and not a flag..... in this case i doubt we will make it today.....
Comment
M5: Making lower highs. About to break down
Comment
Can’t show you the pattern I am at the gym ! Lol

It’s a nice triangle, we are soon going down again
Comment
Approaching the apex !!
Comment
Meaning it should be explosive again
Comment
In the Apex zone (termination of the pattern) price has no choice than to go down
Comment
It should be in a couple of Minutes the pattern is nearly at its end
Comment
This support should technically break....
Comment
Price is not respecting the pattern... wait and see then
Comment
Channel... the resistance of 149.270 shows bearish volume on m15 and m5. It should hold
Comment
It’s a channel and supposed to be a continuation pattern. I will see what happens around resistance zone, we could have a false breakout.

Depending on that I will book partial profits and let trade run until next week.
Comment
Looks like a false breakout
Comment
For me the picture is clear....

But I am afraid we will not have time to get to our target, it's Friday night and people have something else to do than to kill this pair LOL

It should go down, let's see if it breaks the channel or not. I think it might just go up and down until the end of the session.

I will maybe book my profits, because I don't wanna get killed with the weekend spread.

I might get back in on Monday...

And you?

Comment
Hi guys

I have got a nasty cold today so won’t publish as much as usual.

Anyways do not hesitate to interact in the comment section.

My target is unchanged to 147.70.
Jesse
Comment
Are you guys gonna play it all they way down to the bottom of the pitchfork or playing a potential rebound at the support line?

I still don't know I am waiting to see if we have a strong bearish candle which breaks the pattern or not. If it's hesitating I will close the trade at the support line and will short again if it goes up to my target.

This is my plan.

Going back to bed...

The bigger picture

snapshot
Comment
OK guys, the fact that we have a potential HS on H1 and H4 made me adjust my pitchfork. I will post it in a couple of minutes but it looks like price could go and test the median line. As you may know, the median line acts like a magnet.
Comment
We have on H4 and H1 bearish divergence with volumes (price is going up volume not)
If you look at ABC on my chart price have always been pushed down to the median line
We have potential H&S pattern on H1 and H4

In this case, the target could be lowered at 147.00 which is the median line level

snapshot
Comment
we actually had the same scenario with two of my calls on EUR/AUD

One was from the top to the median line
and one was from below the median line to the bottom

I mean... well....

Boring. I will let the trade run. We are close to the trend line I am expecting the pair to break it....
Comment
Bears need to push it down agressively. Otherwise it can still go back and forth
Comment
OK I have analyzed volumes and they are not increasing. so here's my plan:

When we will get close to the trend line, IF WE BREAK IT, we need to see strong volume.

If I don't see a spike in volume, I will close the trade, wait for a pullback and short again.

Because if no strong volume = not enough power to pull it down.

here = at the support line
Comment
Very nice engulfing on H4

I will k eep the trade but will maybe close it before the asian session.

Because the structure (bearish flag) will be tested, I am pretty sure.

But since we have a bearish engulfing candle it could go lower so I will take my profit in max. 4 hours

snapshot
Comment
hopefully it goes to the next fib lower in the next 4 hours

snapshot
Comment
I don't see bullish divergence on M5, M15 or M30 so for me it's still a short
Comment
Price should re-test the support again.

If I see bullish volume I will close the trade, otherwise will let it run until next fib level
Comment
snapshot
Comment
Still no divergence on m1, m5 and m15 with price.

It should go lower
Comment
PB soon over.

Either will rebound from former support or break below

strong divergence on M1

still in the trade

snapshot
Comment
ok guys, last update for the day !

Since we will enter the asian session with no major news I will target the fib level at around 148.670.

If I get the chance to close the trade I will re-enter tomorrow.

Have a good evening/night !

Will even target 148.500, it's a psychological number and it has been reached many times in the past (see my chart).

What a nightmare to trade this pair over the last days....

Since I am stuck with this pair and that we are expecting volatility I am moving my TP to 148.200.

It's a swing low and an important fibonacci retracement from the top.

Good luck guys

snapshot
Comment
NEW TARGET: 148.200
Comment
This swing high shows a contraction in terms of volume in M15 and M5 suggesting price could fall from here

snapshot
Comment
ok guys, everything is explained in my below chart.

Probably one of the last posts regarding this idea!

Best

snapshot
Comment
very nice drop.

The pair should pullback and drop more, my target is 148.200
Comment
will add to my shorts at the level highlighted in blue

snapshot
Comment
Volume on ST suggests PB is on

snapshot
Comment
now let's see where it goes ideally not more than 23 or 38 %
Comment
Ok PB means coffee time :-)
Comment
snapshot

Looks like the pair wants to re-test the neckline of the H&S pattern which is also a fib level. I don't think it will go and test 61.8% level because it's too high.

I will place my shorts on 31.8 and 50 levels
Comment
PB is not over yet
Comment
OK looks like the PB is over. I hope you guys placed the orders according to the fib levels. Now it looks like serious things can start :-) Looks like bears are nervous!
Comment
The volume trend (bullish until now for the session) has been broken to the downside

This is the moment I've been waiting for a damn week !

M15 and M5, same story since one week
