YEN: The Knight in Shining Armor ArrivesThe Japanese Yen is in uncharted territory with the Dollar absolutely POUNDING the Yen into submission. Today was the first time since June 1998 that the Bank of Japan announced it would purchase Yen in an attempt to slow down the depreciation of the Yen. Nobody gives a damn about Forex, so why is this important? Well 1) Yen makes up the second largest weighting in DXY 2) June 1998 marked a temporary top in DXY . Will history repeat itself? I'm not convinced. Yet. 1) Yen is going to have to confirm its monthly hammer 2) Yen is going to need to see some bullish continuation back above the .618 fib and hold it as support. There's a high volume node right at the .618 fib, so it'll be tough resistance to overcome. If these conditions are met, that should send the Yen spiraling upwards like it did in 1998, and mark a temporary top in the DXY allowing some breathing room for stocks, cryptos, and metals. Will the Yen save millions of portfolios? Hmm...

6J1! - Time To Get Very Long Yen6j1! having a nice little bounce here at support to pop back above the 20 year low also a 1:0.618 long term fib extension just below. This has already had the fear test plunge followed by rocketing automatic rally and now has pulled back to the 20 year low again. May meander, may pump - who knows really but this is the big one mark my non financial advice words. My pick for a FX pair is USDJPY because I think DXY has also hit a major top. Idea linked below. Not advice.

Japanese Yen Futures (6J1!), H4 Potential for Bearish DropType : Bullish Rise Resistance : 0.0074025 Pivot: 0.0073045 Support : 0.0072360 Preferred Case: with the price moving within the descending trendline and crossing below the MA, we have a bearish bias that the price may drop to the pivot at 0.0073045, where the previous swing low is. If the pivot is broken, we can expect the price drop to the 1st support at 0.0072360, where the swing low is. Alternative scenario: Alternatively, the price may break the descending tren and rise to the 1st resistance at 0.0074025, where the overlap resistance and 61.8% fibonacci retracement are. Fundamentals: The Tokyo Core CPI y/y is out today, which is at 2.6%, higher than the expectation, which is good for JPY, therefore, from fundamental view, please take note there's also a possibility that the JPY future may increase.

MICRO USD/JPY Futures (E71!), H4 Potential for Bullish MomentumType : Bullish Rise Resistance : 138.65 Pivot: 135.31 Support : 130.00 Preferred Case: On the H4, with prices moving above the ichimoku indicator, the MACD histogram is above zero and the RSI moving along the ascending trendline, we have a bullish bias that price may rise from the pivot at 135.31 where the 61.8% fibonacci retracement is to the 1st resistance at 138.65, where the swing high is. Alternative scenario: Alternatively, price could break pivot structure and drop to the 1st support at 130.00 where the swing low support is. Fundamentals: The latest monetary policy statement from the Bank of Japan indicates that the BoJ will continue holding short-term policy interest rates at -0.10% and purchase 10yr JGBs with no upper limit. The BoJ’s commitment to an ultra-loose monetary policy continues to diverge from the other central banks’ path of monetary policy tightening, leading to expectations for the Yen to continue weakening against the other major currencies.
