JPY can be scary however you can test gbpusd in my opinion.I generally scalp EUR/USD but now I am also trying to scalp GBP/JPY.
Both are paired with the USD so can be good for shorting these days as the USD is already making highs due to the uncertainty of war conditions.My favorite pairs are EURUSD and AUDUSD. Can rely on them.
That's the case with almost all the pairs out there. Predictions are never foolproof.i have a same condition like you. but sometimes it causes a great risk most of the time.
