USDJPY: Longer term perspective is still bullish Long

U.S. Dollar/Japanese YenFXCM

Description

I've been watching this chart closely, and I think we might see a great buy setup in the near short term.
Eyeing the area between 121.43 and 122.34, with invalidation for this signal below 118.968, potential upside is 137.94 in 6 months or less.
We don't get significant trends in FX very often, and this is one of them. I'll be monitoring the Yen to enter a longer term position in it, since I consider the risk/reward and probabilities to be on the bullish side here.
The fundamental odds favor this position as well, I included The Working Trader's idea in the related ideas field since I consider his input valuable. It's good when both technicals and fundamentals agree, just have to be patient for the right setup to pop.
Good luck,
Ivan.

USDJPY might form a top soon, then retrace into my buy zone.
There's absolutely NO rush to take this trade.

Certainly Aggressive. But I Understand What You're Doing. Wishing You Good Luck, Coach.

Watching, might be able to buy lower.
Cancelled limit orders.

We bounced right off the linear regression channel...missed my entry by 15 pips!
There's a 4h uptrend which expires in 1 bar.
I'll look for a retracement to join the trend.

Didn't a get a fill yet, placed two buy limits at 121.915 and 120.644, stop at 119.372.
No tp.

Ok, large correction?

Check.

You can buy now, or wait a bit more.
The monthly entry is a bit lower, I'll start building the position soon.
A small risk entry now wouldn't hurt, but it's better to wait, since the correction looks incomplete:

Just bought a tiny 0.25% risk lot.
Stop under the recent low, price found support at a low volume area, and also a weekly range expansion support zone.
Short term long for now.
