    Short USD/JPY

    I am now short this pair on the surge up. Hopefully, we will move down to towards the bottom of the value curve. If not, we may be moving to the moon. Good luck. Not sure how to say that in Japanese. DRT

    Some tips on dealing with these bold blue and magenta lines. Although it certainly can, does and will happen. Generally, these lines do not have price travel through like a caffeined induced traders index....rather There is generally a surge, then a reversal and then value builds around these...

    Good morning everyone.... Long 50 contracts of EC at 2604. (Equates to long EURUSD around 2558). Long 30 contracts of JY at 8450. (Equates to short USDJPY around 119.45) The EURO trade is within my theme, most likely a little early but I am okay with it. I decided to get ahead of the...

    I am not jesting, Patrick. Maybe guessing would be a better word. Let's just trade in the present for now using what we know. DRT

    Also, on the USDJPY I am sure everyone is aware of the N. Korean Nuclear threats. This could really throw things out of whack. If there was JPY selling last week and a favorable outcome to the crisis is in sight, then these shorts may be unwound. I remember reading somewhere a comment by a...

    Week Oct 8... USDCAD This one is tough for me right now. I see good signs of a breakout upward happening now, but I also see the distinct possibility of a move back down thru 1250 to 1145 in the near term. If the break does come, I see it coming above the 1305 area. If we move into...

    Week of Oct 8... USDJPY I am overall bullish on this pair. We are way up at the top of value right now and could very well break thru, but I do not think just yet. The Northern border of the distribution I am working is coming in around 119.58/119.18 at the very top then down to the...

    If you ever check in here at the Chronicles of a former Idiot..... You know I get these feelings from time to time. It happens often when I am staring at the charts. I have put a sign out front advertising psychic reader, but so far no one has stopped by. I can see a huge run back to the...

    Week of October 8... EC levels in brackets [xxxx] EURUSD/EC We have traded down to the lower end of the current distribution range. North border around the 2840[2890] area and the south end comes in around the 2530[2576] area. Midrange still around the 2725[2774] area. We are faced...

    Short USD/JPY

    Key in on 119.10 area. If it holds then we may move down to 117.33 area. If 119.10 breaks then 119.58/63 area is the key. I look for this to hold in the near term. I am bullish this pair, but I think we have to build some value down below first. I think the real move may come from the 116.27...

    Weekly Re-Cap Week 1 - Closed trades P&L = $68,187 Week 2 - Closed trades P&L = $56,000 Cumulative total = $124,187 Last 10 EC contracts which were short from 2850 were closed today at 2712 for a net profit of $17,250. So now I am completely flat. A lesson in humility...

    One thing that is interesting on this run.....if you study the price action at the data announcement on the EURUSD, you will see that prices rocketed all the back to our midrange of near 2720. This is the area I saw the move up to earlier. I think what happened in a value sense is that there...

    The EUR and JPY are nearing the levels I described above. What will usually (and I use this term loosely at a breakout level) happen is price will bounce solidly out of these levels. Then there will be a retest. You can look to setup on the retest if the drama is too much for your blood...
