USDJPY – Our contrarian forex trading strategies are currently flat the US Dollar against the Japanese Yen, as indecisive traders give little indication on what to expect out of the volatile currency pair.  The ratio of long to short positions in the USDJPY stands at -1.08 as nearly 52% of traders are short. Yesterday, the ratio was at -1.23 as 55% of open positions were short. In detail, long positions are 1.7% higher than yesterday and 1.1% weaker since last week. Short positions are 10.6% lower than yesterday and 12.3% weaker since last week. Open interest is 5.1% weaker than yesterday and 5.5% above its monthly average. The SSI is a contrarian indicator and signals more USDJPY gains.
