240 Minute Bars

Prepared by Jamie Saettele, CMT
I wrote last week that “corrections are tricky and I’d prefer to let it play out than try to trade it.” The correction may be complete as the sharp advance from former resistance (circled) is exactly what one would expect to see if the larger uptrend is indeed resuming. Today’s low (8154) is critical to the bullish case and I’d prefer to see the USDJPY hold the low for several days before trying the long side.
Bottom Line (next 5 days) – sideways/up?
