Hello Ray
I am also still waiting for another top in USDJPY, hopefully between 104.5 and 104.97 (remember 104.97 was our "rubicon" as one of our friends called it) to complete minuette wave 5.
At that point the correction will be finished.
Justy presented a nice chart here a couple of days ago and it is playing out nicely.
After that, i will go short in a big way

Gbp Jpy

Hello guys;
you know that i have been following this pair for a while now.
Here is my take, further to similar chart two days ago, with the recent update.
We are still waiting for the leg C correction to play out, so far we completed wave i and ii of the C wave. It looks like we should see a value of 206.50-207 before the pair will tank.
BTW: at 206.90 leg A = leg C

Agree, I still see a need for another spike down to complete the minor pattern. My mathematically derived value is around 1.967 or lower for this minor bottom (mathematically derived values are ok, but as a general guide only).
After, we should see a bounce to around 1.99, i figure.

(BTW: It might correspond nicely with the bounce that I expect in GBPJPY of another 100 pips, as per my chart above)

I think it's time to pack up my crayons and find another place to play until the picture is more clear.

I still have a short USD/JPY position open, and still feel the dollar rally is corrective and will lead to to a new low. I'm going to wait for a clear sign that the dollar has bottomed and then take long positions. Until then, I'm focusing on markets I've had more success in the past few weeks, like precious metals and the stock indexes.

It is really sad to see that you are leaving us, my friend.
I really enjoyed your posts, you knowlege and you insightful arguments.
I guess, after being here for the last few months, is that you cannot "force" the trade, you cannot force the security to do this or that. market has its own mind; all we have to do is follow what it is telling us through its pulse, called The Waves. It is like the doctor trying to read ECG. Everybody can see waves, but it takes large degree of skill to interpret.
All we have to do is listen to the message that the waves are communicating.
In any case, keep in touch and good luck with your other trading.
Mike

Ray, do not force the market.
It will go down on its own terms. Just wait and things will come to you. I learnt that I must not jump the gun. Patience is definitely a virtue in trading.
I will present my GBPUSD wave count in minor intervals (like 10 min or so). I still believe that we haven't seen the bottom of minuette wave iii, then we need to see minuette wave iv and v.

Here's my take on a possible count I like in a pair that I follow. It may not be too familiar to many of you, but I think it can be a profitable pair once you get to know it. EUR/CHF.

I see strong resistance right here and what could be a completed pattern. So far resistance is holding. There is the possibility of a further breakout to the upside. However, indicators are very stretched and I believe R/R favors a short trade which I have initiated at 162.35.

This is an hourly chart.

I'm a longer-term trader, looking at bigger picture/daily charts, thus I've been bearish on eurusd for a long time. I never saw the risk/reward (nor a good count) for being bullish. I cost-averaged on the way up so I am being rewarded very well today for my patience. So now I can show a profit for April and my wife can get off my back for another month.
