Nikkei - 4 Hour - Triangle Breakout We're seeing this setup across a few indices but here on the Nikkei we've recently had a completed ascending triangle pattern which has broken to the upside & is now starting to consolidate.
My initial prediction was that IF we break to the upside from this ascending triangle THEN we're likely to continue higher.
Now the question is IF we're likely to continue higher THEN where are we likely to go & how are we likely to get there.
The answer to the first question is our most recent major level of structure resistance & the answer to the second question is either by a pullback to previous structure resistance (now turned potential support) or by the formation of a high & tight flag pattern followed by another breakout.
Hope this idea was helpful. if you have any questions, comments or want to share your opinion fee free to leave them in the comment section below.
Also, if you're around I host a TRADE OF THE DAY Live Stream here on Tradingview each Tues, Wed & Thurs at 7:30 am NY, 12:30pm UK time. Feel free to join the discussion.

Japan offers an avenue in a violent global value rotation2022 has marked a turn of events for Japan. The once regarded safe haven yen, has declined the most (-11.3%) among G101 currencies this year2. A large part of the Yen’s decline is rooted in the widening of policy divergence between the US and Japan.
China, alongside Japan, is the only real major economy easing policy in 2022. The Bank of Japan (BOJ) also recently announced unlimited buying of 10-year Japanese government bonds (JGBs) to stem any movement higher in long-term borrowing costs above 25 basis points (bps). This divergence in policy stance is even more apparent with the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) plan to reduce its large balance sheet through a “fast runoff” that might pressure the long end of the US yield curve higher. Historically very low interest rates in Japan made borrowing in Yen attractive. But now with other currencies in a similar position of offering zero (or negative) rates on the currency many years out, the Yen lost its competitive edge on the famous carry trade.
Hedging costs are now rising along with global short-term rates, particularly in the US. This could cause even more Yen selling as investors’ demands for US dollars increase, and they seek the higher levels of interest rates available in the US markets without hedging the currency’s movements.
The weaker Yen bolsters the case for Japanese exporters
The weaker Yen has widespread implications for the Japanese equities since Japan is a market that generates a large portion of its revenue from global markets. So, a weaker Yen supports its profit outlook, thereby making Japanese exporters more competitive than global peers. This theory was validated on March 25, in an address to the Japanese parliament by the Bank of Japan Governor Haruhiko Kuroda who said, “There is no change in the basic structure that a weaker yen has positive effects on the Japanese economy by pushing up the overall economy and prices.” A January report from the BOJ estimated that a 10% depreciation in the yen would push up Japan’s gross domestic product (GDP) by 1%3.
Japan’s energy sector to witness a shift to nuclear power
While much of the attention remains on the weaker Yen’s impact on exporters, it’s important to note that a weaker Yen also raises the costs of imports. Japan’s trade deficit widened to US$3.2Bn in March largely due to soaring energy costs. However, Russia’s war in Ukraine strengthens the case for Japan to shift its energy policy in favour of restarting nuclear power. During a speech in London on May 5, Prime Minister Fumio Kishida said that Japan would turn to its nuclear reactors to help reduce the country’s dependence on Russian fuel. He asserted Japan’s commitment to carbon neutrality by 2050 and the goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 46% by 2030 while ensuring a stable energy supply.
Growth in Japanese dividends lure investors
Inflation has remained worryingly high in the US and Europe and surprisingly low in Japan. Owing to which, high dividend paying strategies have thrived in 2022. Interestingly, since the pandemic, Japanese dividends have grown more than major regions from the US to Europe and emerging markets. While European dividends have contracted more than 10%, Japanese dividends have grown almost 18%, measured in local currency terms. Given the conservative pay-out ratios of Japanese companies—which helped buffer dividend cuts in 2020—Japan tends to have a lower dividend yield than Europe, where dividend payments can be more cyclical.
Adopting a hedged Japanese exposure
Amidst rising geopolitical risks, Japanese equity markets performance have withstood the ensuing volatility better than most of its developed market peers in 2022 in local currency terms. However, when measured in foreign currency terms i.e., the US dollar or EUR terms the losses are magnified on the downside due to the weakness of the Yen (as shown below).
This goes to a point we often make - currency changes do not need to impact your foreign return, and you can target that local market return by hedging your currency risk. A hedged Japanese dividend paying equity exposure could enable an investor to hedge their exposure to the Yen. Valuations remain attractive both historically and compared to developed markets. US equity earnings multiples are trading at a 20% premium while Japan is priced at a 15% discount to its historical medium . The ensuing rotation from growth to value remains an attractive environment for value-oriented cyclical and industrial companies which are dominant in Japanese equity markets.

Historic bull failure signal - 1990Here's where the big breaking of the bull trend came in the Nikkei of 1990.
Here's where the big breaking of the bull trend came in the DJI of 1929.
The breaking of this 161 level has been the best leading signal of major market failure.
DJI
Nikkei
SPX?
Here we always bounce from the 161 to just over the 127 fib. If this signal is in play, someone would be able to make a forecast of the hard crash coming from around 4150.
Historically markets top when they reject the 161 of the last big drop, and they capitulation when they break the 161 of the topping swing.
We have both of these now.
NIKKEI 7th JUNE 2022Asia Pacific stock markets were mostly bullish on Monday (June 6th) morning as China eased COVID-19 restrictions, giving hope for the global economic recovery. Also, the upbeat US jobs report opens the door for the US Federal Reserve to remain decisive on inflation.
Nikkei has breakout the resistance area. After several months inside the falling wedge area. So technically the price will be higher in the future.

How we made 7.26% in May with 63% win rate while markets fell Last month when markets took a beating, we were able to make 4% within 11 days of trading using trading view to help track our trades.
The month of May was a really volatile month and it took some courage to get back to where we are today. As you can see from our equity curve, we were down about 7% midway through the month and staring down a gun barrel.

Here are some very important lessons that we learnt from our trading from the month of May.
1) Do not get into markets that you don't understand before testing them out thoroughly. - We started getting into indexes and especially the JPN225. What we didn't realize is that this pair moves really fast and can either wipe you out and make you lots of money. We lost 4% on the first trade but made 12% on the next. Still not sure whether we should trade this but if a good opportunity comes up why not? Just keep your positions super small.
2) Risk control is so important even if you are losing - - It is so easy to lose your marbles when you are down 7% in the first 15 days. However we need to accept that losing trades will happen and the only way you can control it is by not risking too much. Your account will ebb and flow. Some weeks are just flat. Sometimes you can have a quarter where you are totally flat and I am sure that will happen for us soon as well.
3) Winning percentages means nothing - We have always been taught in school that you are a loser if you do not get 80% and above. In trading, losing 40% of your trades is still okay as long as you lose with dignity. This month we lost 37% of our trades but yet made 7.26% by holding on to our winners.
Where do we see the market going in June 2022?
The past 2 weeks has been bullish. This is not the end of the market crash unfortunately. It is call a bear rally or a bull trap and we are likely to see the markets being pushed down to the previous lows. We still believe the target for DJIA is 26,000 and the S&P will reach 3600 within the next 3-4 months. In the meantime, we plan to take small trades to help us grow our equity as we have done in the last 45 days.
In the meantime, we are looking at a sell of JPN225 at the level marked out but it is an uptrend so we may go long until this price is reached for the sell.
Good luck!
