Not a Fan of that Resistance or PerformanceWhile there is much room to go before we hit resistance, I am really not a huge fan of this overall lackluster performance. Keep in mind, the BoJ owns upwards of 80 percent of the entire Japanese ETF market. 80 percent. Let that sink in. Also, export data is weak in an economy where exports make up 18 percent of GDP. If we gain five percent from today, nobody will be happier than me as my overall macro view will gladly change. I can sleep at night being wrong on five percent. But really though what could possibly lead to that given the last three months where some Asian markets like the Shanghai Composite would gain 5 percent in a single day while Japan is asleep? Just not convinced. More fundy and technical analysis on Asian markets as they move today here: anthonylaurence.wordpress.com

NIKKEI approaching resistance, potential drop! Nikkei is approaching our first resistance at 20899 (100% fibonacci extension, 50% fibonacci retracement, horizontal pullback resistance) and a strong drop might occur below this level pushing price down to our major support at 18995 (61.8% fibonacci extension, horizontal swing low support). Stochastic (21,5,3) is also approaching resistance and we might see a corresponding drop in price should it react off this level. Trading CFDs on margin carries high risk.

Might be a good chance for a short on NikkeiNikkei looks to be on a desceding trend on the hourly chart. As we can see it broke downwards it's ascending trend and continued it's global image searching for lower lows, as it broke downwards an ascending trend developed in the daily chart. What we're looking here is that price has respected it's current trendline and failed to breakout ema's 50 giving out a tiring candle signal, that's the first bell indicating that a reversal is likely. According to it's current trend searching for lower lows, the price may search for a lower low around the orange indicated section as it is an important support, which is also close to fibbonaci's level 1.272 coming from the downward breakout from the previous uptrend. I'll operate this trade once the candle in the hourly chart closes red or giving a japanese pattern of reversal.
