Consolidation with bearish tilt

Currency Pair:Usd/Jpy
Indicators: technical patterns and Sma50(red)+ Sma200 (blue)
Current price: 119.48
Trend: very strong uptrend
Possible trading range:115-121.80
Signals: At the first glance on the monthly chart it's seems that the upward move has reached its peak at around 121.80 and from this point a massive head and shoulders pattern can take shape only if the price decides to make a much serious pullback towards 113.
Fundamentals: The recent BOJ's stimulus will keep alive the bullish out…

update: Current price - 117.45.I was quite right saying that the upside looked limited at this stage (below 119) given the fundamentals which point towards even more downside correction.  Hope the price will remain in the current rangebound on Monday. IT's unlikely.

update: 5,4 pips in relative terms means a deviation of 4,6% from my target. It,s worth to mention that usd/jpy has opened with a very large gap lower at 117.06 and went even lower at 116.96  mainly on the back of poor data coming out of China. DUring the day the bulls managed to recover all the lost ground.

Geopolitical Risk Greatest Threat to Risk Aversion

Risk in the market remains elevate by current Russia-Ukraine conflict on the one hand and USA&EU vs Russia sanctions. I'm expecting this geopolitical risks to remain elevate in coming weeks as there are no sign of any de-escalation of this conflict. In this regard we should expect market sentiment to be in risk aversion mode as this is clearly suggested by the lower equity price and higher Treasuries.
Globally there is more than just Ukraine-Russia conflict we have Gaza-Israel conflict, Iraq, S…

Fed Tapers

The most awaited day of the month is here as Janet Yellen will chair her first meeting of the FOMC. In terms of market expectation the consensus is for another round of cut of $10B/month of assets purchases. Based on recent Bloomberg survey among economists 96% favors a $10B tapering (see Figure 1).
So despite the recent bad economic data from recent month due to bad weather and despite the geopolitical risk, Fed tapering should remain on autopilot and see a gradual move from his easing cycle.
