Yesterday, the USD / JPY pair faced a very interesting situation, which, in our opinion, is caused by the closure of short positions in the market. In that regard, traders can use this as a pivot, in order to take over the sell stops at 103.9.
In fact, since the quotes have formed three wave patterns (ABC), where wave "A" is the upward movement observed yesterday, the bulls can open long positions from 103.30-103.50, the target of which is a 50% retracement in the market. The risk for this transaction is 102.950, which is the low reached yesterday.
The main target is a breakout from 103.9, but if the quote reaches 103.350, take profit.
Price Action and Stop Hunting were used for this trading strategy.
Good luck and Happy New Year!
