Here is my USD/JPY weekly candlestick chart!
The Japanese Yen has been hammered against its counterparts,forming a strong uptrend since November 2012! rallying 1300 pips with hardly any correction...
As you can see I have measured the high of March 2012 (84.20)down to the low of September 2012(77.00) thus giving us a 200% FIB extension at 91.30...
Fridays price action hit a high of 91.19...
As you can also see the last 3 weeks candles show large wicks to the downside..this is a strong price action indication of profit taking!!
I think this week we can reverse.. I will be selling from market open with a target of 87.00! After this correction I think we may rally gain up to 94.00 (Major resistance April 2010)
Happy Trading

Comment by Jess Simms on January 27, 2013 at 2:52pm I like ur thinking shaun.. i missed short at at 91.10 (forgot to place pending.. "ughhh") as resistance due to stall in June 2010... its daily Pivot Point is at 89.76..
As for your 87.00 target well i cant see that far, but i think 89.50 is obtainable (..but if it turns up from 89.50 its going to 93-94)... below 89.50 then who knows maybe 87
I need to to more research and watch its movement at start of week
Good Luck
Comment by Jess Simms on January 28, 2013 at 1:11am Well i took a short at 91.22... wiil wait to see if it falls below 90.80 then may add large... dont like trading too much against trend ... Good Luck Shaun

Comment by Jess Simms on January 28, 2013 at 10:57pm Well i like aud to 1.0475... Your NZD too tuff to call but ill be buying below 82.75... GBP just looks miserable but hopefully u get a nice bounce of the fib its due for one...
UJ back at the 90.63 mark once again... lets see what the asian session brings should smash thru 90.55 then its a free fall
