First of all, on the Technical Side ; We can notice that the PA on the Daily Chart crossed below the 50 SMA. The 50 & 100 SMA also crossed over one another November 12th. That is our first indicator for a pullback PA was supported by the 100 SMA from September 28th to October 23rd. The PA went below for some time until the election we could see a big bounce (big green candle) on November 9th and the PA just crossed below 100 SMA few days ago as mentionned above. Though, we need more confluence before entering. My second indicator would be the Bollinger Band witha 20 lenght and 2 Standard Deviation ; I noticed that the PA touched the Higher band on November 9th (the big bounce) and pulled back on the same day on my 4H key level ( around 124.362). PA haven't touched the mid-band yet though but we from the November 9th Pullback, we can expect the PA to touch it or cross below it depending on the fundamentals. That being said, the BB indicator would have been more useful for intraday position throughout the month of October. Therefore I won't put too further attention on it. My third Indicator would be the RSI with a 14 period. I use 70-30 but I prefer looking the bigger picture ; 80-20. On the Daily chart, since the Big Bounce of Nov. 9th, RSI level could not break higher than 60. As a matter of fact, it kept descending since that day ( 8 consecutive days). Thus, I won't put too much attention on it because the Fundamentals could make the RSI go sideways/ reverse. This indicator only tells me that the trend is downward and if the fundamentals are not strong enough for a shift of the PA, it could keep going down so I'll keep an eye on it until some economic data comes out but I don't think the trend would change that much if nothing new happens.
Secondly, I'll have a look at the fundamentals ; For the JPY perspective, the last High Impact news (November 15th) was the GDP QQ & QQ annualised and both news had a Higher result than anticipated That resulted in a slight move upward for the PA but nothing big until the following day. When the Reserve Assets new came out from Europe which was higher than the previous one. That resulted in a move upward for PA which was maintainted for a day. The PA kept his path afterwards. We can tell that the JPY been gaining strenght even though the fundamentals from Europe had better results than the previous ones or the consensus. The following news coming out will be important turning points. We have some on the 17th from Japan and more from Europe on November 18th. I expect moves upward depending on the results from the Europeean news If the Actual is too weak, PA will keep it's movement downward. If the actual is better, I expect a slight move upward before a retracement downward as the trend is pretty much bearish. Lastly, if we look at the COT data, I noticed that some important factors ; JPY for the last 4 weeks
Clearly, the shift has happened. From 46.5k to 55.6k and a lot of short postions have been closed in the last three weeks. If we look at the Euro, the opposite has happenned ;
A lot of position have been closed in the Longs going from 229.8k to 202.3k in Longs and from almost 64k short to 67k. The shift has begun.
Now as the entry I believe everyone should have the proper technical tools to place an entry. I would personally go as the following : wait for the release of the European News on the 18th. If PA breaks above two 4H Key level, I will let the PA following it's impulse and wait for the RSI,Fib Levels and SMA 50 & 100 as well as my trend lines to have a good confluence point before placing an entry point. That being said, the Short position on my chart won't be accurate but I would definitly would be expecting the PA to go between 122.2 and 121.8 Therefore, my TP1 would be 122.2 My TP2 would be 121.8 My TP3 would be 121.45 With an entry at around 124.45
