Recent Blow-off Move in USD/JPY?

Currencies / Japanese Yen Mar 25, 2011 - 12:29 PM GMT

By: Seven_Days_Ahead

Currencies

After some of the dust has settled since last week’s sharp, brief sell-off some initial ideas have formulated. These might begin to excite the bulls, but it is too early to draw conclusions yet.


The FX Specialist view


 WEEKLY CHART

The recent sharp sell-off saw a test of the projected bear channel base before recovery was seen.

First main resistance here comes from the late 2009 84.81 low, and a push through this would be a bull sign.

 

DAILY CHART:

In the FX Specialist Guide we have wondered whether or not the sell-off amounted to a blow-off move, paving the way for a better recovery on this chart.

In these situations such sell-offs seem to begin near the future 38.2% retracement level...

S/term note initial resistance emerging from the area of the old rising support/return line and 23.6% level – the first positive sign would be a clear close through this, followed by further recovery through that 38.2% level.
