USDJPY Bearing Crab

21 Kas 2016

Here we have another harmonic pattern completing itself on the USDJPY; this time, the Crab. The last pattern I posted on this pair did not complete, thus a trade was never entered. This pattern is almost complete and an eager beaver might even take an early entry! Price is reaching key resistance at the 112.00 level So a short position will be taken from there- STAY PATIENT! As of today, 21/11/16, the US FED has doubled their interest rate, cause the economy to slow, while the BoJ has in fact lowered their interest rate from 0.1% to a flat 0%. This will cause the US to weaken slightly, ultimately continuing the downwards trend. I will enter this trade and take the exit level as per usual. However, long term we could be looking at some consolidation before an upwards trend.
