JPYUSD trade ideas

USDJPY still has more downside on daily & weekly tfStructurally I'm looking for rejection at 147-149.8 range. Look for renewed selling action below 144 to confirm. Still seeing additional unwinding of the yen carry trade as highly likely over subsequent days & weeks. Targeting 136, 131, and 126 handles on weekly structure as we approach Q1 of 2025. Particularly as the US Federal Reserve is pressured to cut rates further with recent data. Entering short positions gradually but the majority is already in place.

Look around 140.260 for the second target position,then halve the warehouse and push for protection. If the price does not hit a new low, look for opportunities to go long in reverse.

YEN/USD short, USD long and making milkshake.Japan is stuck in a debt trap. Shorting the YEN/USD: Milkshake and Carry Trade going hyperpolic The Bank of Japan (BOJ) announced the end of its interest rate hiking cycle on September 20, 2024. This decision was made to stabilize the economy and prevent further market disruptions. The BOJ had to stop increasing rates at 25 basis points, or 0.25%. They can’t go higher to "normalize" their interest rates. Japan is stuck as a carry trade slave. Foreign investors borrow in Yen at low rates, convert the money into USD, and buy US Treasuries or other riskier assets with higher returns. A weakening Yen increases the weight of their foreign debt. Japan has the highest debt-to-GDP ratio at 261%, higher even than Venezuela which is at 240%. This is why the BOJ was trying to "normalize" its central bank interest rate, increasing it from the decimal 0.05% level. However, the BOJ announced on September 20, 2024, that they can’t go higher than 0.25% as this is bringing in too much inflation. So, in a nutshell, the BOJ can’t use its central bank rate to control inflation. Japan is stuck in a major debt crisis, and by trying to increase its interest rate for the first time in 17 years, it has exposed its central weakness. This is why foreign predatory investors and traders are going to exploit it at hyperbolic levels. The Dollar Milkshake Theory is in full effect here. It is no longer a "theory. The Yen Carry Trade hyperbolic mode has started. The US Dollar Milkshake on behalf of the Yen is ramping up fast. Operation Milkshake is a go! 😂 The Japanese are stuck in a deadly debt cycle. The situation is dire! OMS P.S. On SOFR, its spread over the Funds Rate is spiking and the highest outliers of the SOFR average rate are suggesting increasing counterparty risk on top of the elevated overall risk. Watching this like a hawk.

THREE AREAS TO POTENTIALLY BUY FROMUSD/JPY 4H - As you can see price has left without us, failing to trade down and into the two zones I had marked out below, instead price swept just above before taking its next hike. I dont want to miss the next bull-run and I believe price will have to come down and into the last sell to buy region we have here on the 4H timeframe, all I have done is gone ahead and refined the area slightly for us. I have marked out the hidden order block that lays in the same area as the last sell to buy region. I would like for price to clear this inefficient structure, pick up more demand and take off to the upside. We could look to short this market before we go long, but with it being a prevailing bullish trend as we know that is going to be somewhat risky, so its important that if we do go short we wait for confirmation first.

Taking a look at Fibonacci in Technical AnalysisIn the world of technical analysis, traders are always searching for tools that provide an edge in the markets. One such tool, which has stood the test of time, is Fibonacci retracement. Derived from a series of numbers discovered by the Italian mathematician Leonardo Fibonacci in the 13th century, the Fibonacci sequence has been applied to various fields, from nature to finance, and plays a significant role in predicting market movements. This blog will explore how Fibonacci retracement works, why it’s relevant for traders, and how you can incorporate it into your trading strategy for better results. ________________________________________ What is Fibonacci? The Fibonacci sequence is a series of numbers where each number is the sum of the two preceding ones, starting with 0 and 1. So, the sequence looks like this: 0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, and so on. The magic of Fibonacci for traders lies in the ratios derived from this sequence, which are commonly referred to as the "Golden Ratios." The most important Fibonacci ratios used in technical analysis are: • 61.8% (also known as the Golden Ratio) • 38.2% • 23.6% These ratios are used to identify potential levels of support and resistance in the price of a financial asset. Fibonacci Retracement in Trading Fibonacci retracement is a popular technical analysis tool used to find potential levels where price pullbacks or reversals might occur. The idea is simple: when a market moves sharply in one direction, it’s likely to retrace part of that move before continuing in the same direction. Key Levels in Fibonacci Retracement: • 61.8%: Often regarded as the "golden retracement level," this ratio is believed to be the strongest predictor of price reversal points. • 50%: Although not an official Fibonacci ratio, traders frequently use this level to gauge whether the trend will resume or reverse. • 38.2% and 23.6%: These levels represent smaller pullbacks and often signal short-term corrections. By plotting these levels on a price chart, traders can get a better sense of where the price might pause, reverse, or find support/resistance. How to Use Fibonacci Retracement in Your Trading Strategy Let’s break down how Fibonacci retracement works in practice. Step 1: Identifying a Trend The first step in using Fibonacci retracement is identifying a strong upward or downward trend. This could be a swing high to swing low (in an uptrend) or a swing low to swing high (in a downtrend). The trend is essential because Fibonacci retracement levels are applied to find where pullbacks might occur during this trend. Step 2: Plotting Fibonacci Levels Once you’ve identified the trend, plot the Fibonacci retracement levels using the highest and lowest points of the move. Most charting platforms, have built-in Fibonacci tools to help with this. For example, in an uptrend, select the lowest point (swing low) and drag the tool to the highest point (swing high). The software will automatically calculate and plot the key Fibonacci levels: 23.6%, 38.2%, 50%, 61.8%, and 100%. Step 3: Analysing the Price Action Now that the Fibonacci levels are in place, watch how the price interacts with these levels. If the price retraces to 38.2% or 61.8%, it might find support and continue moving in the direction of the trend. Traders often look for other confirmation signals (such as candlestick patterns, volume spikes, or moving averages) at these levels before making a trade. Using Fibonacci in Conjunction with Other Indicators While Fibonacci retracement is a powerful tool on its own, its effectiveness increases when combined with other technical analysis tools. Here are some common pairings: • Moving Averages: A bounce off a Fibonacci level that coincides with a key moving average (like the 50-day or 200-day MA) is often seen as a strong buy or sell signal. • Trendlines: If a Fibonacci retracement level aligns with a major trendline, this increases the likelihood of the level acting as strong support or resistance. • Candlestick Patterns: Reversal patterns like Doji, Hammer, or Engulfing candles at a Fibonacci retracement level can provide additional confirmation for your trade setup. • RSI/Other Oscillators: Overbought or oversold conditions shown by the Relative Strength Index (RSI) around a Fibonacci level can signal potential price reversals. On the USD/JPY weekly chart we have an engulfing pattern and a diverging RSI at the 61.8% which adds weight to the idea that the market was likely to hold in this vicinity and recover. Conclusion: Fibonacci as a Core Tool in Your Trading Arsenal Fibonacci retracement is a versatile and widely trusted tool that can help traders identify potential price reversal levels. By understanding how to apply Fibonacci ratios and combining them with other technical indicators, you can improve your chances of success in the markets. Remember, no tool is perfect, and using Fibonacci retracement effectively requires practice and confirmation. Incorporate it into a broader trading strategy, and you’ll be able to make more informed and profitable trading decisions.

USDJPY / UNDER BULLISH PRESSUE / 4HUSDJPY / 4H TIME FRAME HELLO TRADERS after breakout from a channel, leading to a price increase of 1.82%. The breakout signals potential for further upward movement. The price is expected to retest a Fair Value Gap (FVG), which is a technical term in trading that represents an area on the chart where price moved quickly, leaving little to no volume. The specified FVG zone is between 145.303 and 144.367. A retest of this area could indicate the market finding support here. If the price remains above this FVG area and stabilizes, there is an expectation of further increases, potentially reaching the supply zone between 147.602 and 149.360. This suggests that the supply zone is where there could be selling pressure. A break above the supply zone would indicate even more upside potential for prices. On the downside, if the price closes a 4-hour candle below the FVG area, the expectation is for prices to decline. This could lead the price to a demand zone between 142.672 and 141.736, suggesting buying interest might come in at this level. Supply Zone : 147.602 and 149.360. Demand Zone : 142.672 and 141.736. FVG : 145.303 and 144.367.
