USDJPY - 4hr Timeframe -Update on Buy opportunities

Long
OANDA:USDJPY   U.S. Dollar / Japanese Yen
Following our daily overview and 4hr timeframe analysis (www.tradingview.com/...n-Buy-Opportunities/), we believe that USDJPY could still be going for a major uptrend very soon. For the moment, the pair hasn't been going far or trending at all, in reality. However, not every uptrend begins impulsively, as some pick up strength after a slow start. We have to be ready therefore, as once this pair will take off, it will certainly go very fast.
For those who aren't in the trade from the bottom, monitor closely now: the pair has broken to the downside what seems to be a leading diagonal pattern, but that does not invalidate the corrective structure so far, as it could still resume it's minor trend to the upside, completing a running flat pattern.
From now on therefore, we will be looking for buy setups, on this pair: watch out for ending diagonal formations and other price action patterns for an entry point on their break. For a more conservative approach, wait for a first impulse to the upside, wait for a small correction of said impulse on the 60min timeframe, and buy the break of said correction with a stop loss beneath it.

Comment:
To all of those who are in the buys from our first or second entry points, congratulations! Watch it now, as the current correction could be developing in the shape of a small running flat, which would be another buy opportunity. However, the pair could also go for a deeper correction. Let's see which one plays out. Updates will follow.
