Nikkei: Short term short setup

Short
FX:JPN225   Nikkei 225 Index
The Nikkei is correcting the last upward leg in the daily chart after signaling a 3 bar daily uptrend, time expires today, and the 4h chart paints a clearly bearish picture.
The minimal target is on chart, and to enter the trade I'd look into selling a range expansion down bar out of the mode at 20785.
You would have to use my indicator and wait for a bar to turn red to market sell, or sell now if your strategy allows it.
Mine doesn't, as price sits in a triangle right now, with conflicting shorter term trends colliding, I'd advice against jumping the gun. The linear regression is another cue, a breakout and 1 bar close without touching the mode is the go signal.

Good luck!

Ivan.

PS: you can also use this chart as the opposite, a cue to go long Nikkei and/or USDJPY after confirming the selloff (which would take price into my buy area in the case of the Yen)
