For a clear assessment of the risk impact of this intervention, look at oil. It's barely changed much, actually dropped a bit. That tells us there's only USD strength but no optimism or risk on yet. The rise of the nikkei is purely mechanical as it ...

I think it's gonna last for quite a while

EURUSD

Ah yes! I actually see what could happen. Now if the USA keeps complaining about yuan manipulation, the chinese can just say "Well japan weakened the yen vs the dollar to help their economy, why shouldn't we weaken the yuan to help ours?" It gives ...

EURUSD

Don't think so, not yet. I have short US equities, which I'm comfortable holding for now. Not sure what's going to happen now re JPY. But I don't think it's a good sign when a CB intervenes and creates market disturbances. I have a feeling China and ...

Id say going long USD/JPY you can't go wrong rigght now, this being the initial stage of BOJ intervention. i'm not taking it personally tho, as I've missed the entry by ... a few seconds?!

EURUSD

The Boj have a style of running long interventions that can last for quite some time and uusally happen in a few rounds. Let's see what impact this has.

Let's see how the market reacts! Nikkei rallying ofcourse, but let's see if the BOJ can win. Boj vs market, let's see round 1!

EURUSD

EURUSD

I think we might actually see these guys a bit later today. Ever heard the term "Samurai bounce"? image

EURUSD

Ah man the JPY is hammering the Nikkei.

EURUSD

Hahaha just watch the japanese get seriously pissed. The Nikkei is having a bad trip on the JPY surge.

EURUSD

There we go! See how uneasy the nikkei gets whenever we dip below 83.00? Interesting what happens if we dip well below that. and even more so if BOJ finally intervene at some point. All this volatility, currencies, stocks, gold, oil... that's a ...

USD/JPY guys, thats the hot stuff this session, it has the potential to move the stock market sufficiently in any direction.

EURUSD

watch USD/JPY closely. There's bound to be spectacular action there soon I think. Actually I'd join gladly the fun, but my account is loaded up already to my usual position size.

EURUSD

Haha Karl Marx
