    It looks like I might get a chance to go short after all. A small bounce is occuring.

    Very nice trade! I am look for a long term short as well. I think around .8560. I would like to it move up there so I can hit my short at a better value. I think long term trend is down, and I dont wanna miss it.

    Regards

    I sold the bounce at .8525. I now have a loss. I did not think the bounce would be so much. I have a stop in place that has not been hit yet. I only did one contract. I will let you know when and if I get stoppped out.

    Regards,
    Steve

    My experience with the JY/USD over the years is that it can get you into more trouble more quickly than most of the other pairs--somedays having a range of 300 to 400 pips in a day. Sometimes tough for the position trader with that kind of range.

    All may not be lost yet Steve. Market shows weak divergences on 15 minute charts. Might be able to get back where you need to be.
