Poundyen
short poundyen on previous structurechart is pretty clear, this is the 8th time we are testing this area. already TP1 and 2 on previous trade and looking to re-enter.
we may expect some drawdown, but continued political uncertainty should way on the pound.
do keep an eye on upside break should BOE surprise and the global tradewar worries ease and equities (and yen) strengthen.
GBP/JPY long from demand zoneHere we have a demand zone on the Pound/Yen daily chart. I'm really liking this zone and think it will hold true. COT Data suggests that the GBP could be turning soon and that also is taken into account for this trade. Commercial traders have increased their net long to over 60,000 on the, taking profits as the Pound has been taking a beating, while large speculators are net short about 50,000 and have actually been increasing their shorts along the way. Large speculators are wrong about the markets almost all the time and tend to add to short positions as price continues to fall. Using knowledge of how commercials traders are positioned gives great insight for predicting possible future movement. Furthermore, doing the opposite of Small Speculators can prove to be valuable as they also tend to be wrong a majority of the time.

Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. Past performance is not indicative of future results. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to invest in foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite. The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with foreign exchange trading, and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.

GBP/JPYJust want to point out that GJ is approaching the 200 MA on the daily and the 4 hr. Watch the price action on those, should at least get a sell scalp off it. Look to retest level, might get a very nice sell if you let some ride (managed properly of course). It is possible considering all this pair has done is w-x-y'd for like... ever... Obviously it is long right now, but price action is choppy. 200 MA confluence daily-4hr. All I can say to look for at this point is a small sell (off daily 200). Market is just getting kicked off. Hopefully I will have time to post some more specific trades midweek off price action, but I may not have proper analysis time until next week.
GBPJPY Creeping Towards My Take Profit Then What?As predicted, GBPJPY is slowly creeping towards my Take Profit which is at the previous high level 148.000. When price reaches this level, I will bank the remaining portion of my position and look for signs of supply for a short setup. This setup will take place in the form of a bearish structure formation and I will enter the short upon confirmation of the break.

GBPJPY long opportunityThe pound just broke a resistance. i believe the pound is only going to continue to strengthen over the next week or so, but not after an exhaustion to at least the .618 fib levels, a safe bet would be wait until the pair has retraced back and wait for the next bullish engulfing candle to go long on the two. Set stop loss a good distance under the new support.
GBPJPY long term ShortConfirmation for the short has occured from a bearish rising wedge in pund yen. This chart pattern symbolizes a continuation to the downside , which has been confirmed by a break of the bottom support and a retest of the new resistance. This pattern could still exhaust after the price pushed down a bit more, so look on the smaller timeframes to find a good entry point. currently on the 2hr chart price is in a wedge patten and looks like it may break upper resistance and make a shot term buy for lower timeframe traders. Keep an eye on the 150 area to make a re-entry on the long term sell and set stops 10 pips above the next highest resistance level.
GBP/JPY Short- Meltdown into 140.00sBased on Weekly Price action for GBP/JPY we can see that This pair has broken a weekly Major Trendline and Retested the Area with some Choppy Consolidation and Rejection. A 61.8% rejection is also in line with Key weekly levels that also supports the idea that the -27% extension passed 140.00s will be reached.
A quick glance over at the BXY will also show some Pound Weakness as well as the Pound Drifts further and further down to key monthly Levels.
I will be swing Trading this Trade hopefully down into the 140.00 with Possible Scale in Oppurtunities along the way.

GBP / JPY - Broke bearish wedge - SHORT I hate trading this bear when the Pound is so weak, but I shorted this pair at the top of the wedge @145.2 and we're now retesting the edge of the wedge again, we're consistently breaking lower lows, but it takes time to get there, takes ages to rise and then drops each time, just like this!
142 is the target, but with eyes on 140, this pair is hard-work, so unless you want to feel the highs and lows of this trade, don't trade it and certainly don't watch it. I'm hoping to be out of it by 3pm Friday. Review my long term view below.
pound yen long analysis Hi everyone
this is what I see at the moment :
I see pound yen in a long movement upward to either tp1: 153.70 or up a touch more to 154.20 marker is where I would sell off if we lower lows form as we are still in a weekly downtrend. overall pretty clear and simple , I would either wait till it goes up a bit then chops back to the median brown line and try an entry their for a few pips: remember the trend is your friend
Happy TRADING EVERYONE
pound yen long and here is why based on my weekly trendlines and pitchfork and projections: this would be a great buying opportunity with a 4 to 1 reward to risk trade. my tp is the square box with the orange lines are tps all the way up to either take profit off or renter a trade all depending on your trading plan
