USDJPY Trade IdeaPrice is now at a strong resistance level and note the hanging man (hammer @ resistance) which printed - this is the sell signal.
Conservative traders will wait for confirmation (bearish candle)
Aggressive traders enter @ market price usually. This is for increased risk to reward ratio so
I am in short @ market price 111.952 and
SL above the high @ 112.227 and
TP at support lower down (and the next if the market keeps paying) @ 111.346
As usual don't bet the farm, good risk management won't kill you but the lack thereof could :)

USDJPY Bearish Potential SetupSalam and hi my name is Khalid Hamid. USD Index is showing a reversal, thus USD pairs might go down too (including USDJPY).
Early sign is there but still need to wait for a STRONG BREAKOUT signal to the downside.
Watch the video to understand. ;-)
Tomorrow is NFP and few other high impact data release so please be careful with your trades.
Good luck and happy trading everyone.

USDJPY - Pending SELLFX_IDC:USDJPY
I am trading on a small account, documenting my progress. This is not intended to be a signal!
Descending- H1 Channel
Awaiting Pull-back to retest upper channel, and fib level 0.382 were we have a sell limit placed. Take profit is at strong H4 Support.
Sell Limit - 110.380
SL - 110.816
TP - 108.500
USDJPY Trade IdeaWe saw a nice bearish move on Friday as money flowed out USD into safe havens like the yen and gold. The up channel has been broken and I am looking for a retracement to the 50.0 or 61.8 fibonacci levels.
Once price reaches the 110.396 level I will look to price action for a sell signal to short this pair:
IF the above happens I will have my stop above resistance at 10.885 and
my take profit lower down at 108.992 (support seen on D1)
As usual, don't bet the farm and exercise good risk management.

USDJPY Trade IdeaGoing long on USDJPY
1. Price pinned the 50ema
2. Bullish engulfing candle pattern completed
My stop is a tad below the moving average at 110.110 and
take profit below resistance at 111.042
This set up is purely based on doing buys if price is above the 200ema using it as a trend filter and then the 50ema for entries targeting previous highs.
This trade has a risk to reward ratio of 1:2

USDJPY Short FX:USDJPY
Welcome back to a new trading week :)
Following some bullish trade ideas from last week and the week before, long orders were closed with little profit as the charts slowed down on the bulls and started to bring signs of bearish price action to the charts...
I have applied the top down method in analysing to find on W1 and D1 time frame corresponding with my H4 view. Here we can see a short term trend line broken to the down side around a key level. On D1 I have noted that Friday's candle has pinned the 21 ema which is a great indicator to get in on a short of the trend is generally down.
Sell order opened @ market price 109.328 with
SL above the recent highs @ 110.272 and
TP around the swing low on the left @ 106.988
On this trade I am rising 95 pips for 235 on the reward end BUT if you check the recent swing low on W1 you will find that this trade has a 500 pip potential.
Don't bet the farm and always exercise healthy risk management!
Bullish flag breakout USDJPYBreakout from the bullish flag pattern on H4
Open buy @ market price 109.738
Stop loss @ 109.067 below the low and
Take profit at previous resistance @ 110.513
Note the hammer that pinned the 21 ema - buy signal...
Don't bet the farm and always exercise healthy risk management.
USDJPY recovery above long term trend lineFX:USDJPY
Price has just pulled back above the long term trend line drawn (on H4 and D1 tf) following the flash crash from last week.
Note the marked bullish engulfing candle pattern printed on support signalling the potential move higher.
I have opened a buy order at market price 109.042 with
*Stop loss below the support where I feel that the setup would become invalidated @ 107.771
*Provisionally targeting the 200ema @ 111.409 and then the major resistance IF price pushes higher to 113.589
Don't bet the farm, always exercise good risk management
