Default It's getting close!!!
It is almost time to short this pair.
Looks like it is topping out.
Does the 4h chart have a triple top?:D

Did it go somewhere?

I'm thinking there is more to come.

38.2% retracement of 110.65 to 87.12 at 96.10 but from other side if 96.10 will be really broken we can see move up to 100

I dunno, I must be mad!

Apart from that, take a look at this chart. Notice the resistance. Then look at the stochs, they're high, but crossing down. I entered a short at the first candle that closed red after testing the resistance. Placed two TPs. One at the 23.6 fib, the other at the 38.2 fib. My SL was at the resistance (i.e. the purple line).

Yes, you're right, USD/JPY has been trending up crazy of late, but I know if I got stopped out on this trade, I would have only risked less than 10 pips, whilst seeking a much higher reward.

Let me know if you're not clear about anything.

Is there any credence for a short of USD/JPY at around 100

Only that 100 is a nice big fat round number. I would expect some S/R around there, but I wouldn't go short just because of the number, unless I had several other indicators in agreement.

I am still long on USD/JPY long term. Weak JPY data is making the dollar go up again yen.
