Today's USD/JPY call: Buy.

I’m keeping a bullish bias, continuing from yesterday, but since price has reached a key level on the 4-hour and daily charts, I have a feeling it won’t just break straight through.
My assumption is that it won’t clear Line A just yet, so I’d like to wait for it to form a pullback first.
The opportunity will probably come from the European session onward.

For the pullback, I’ll be watching the blue line near the letter B or around Line C as a guide.

No trade.

Just as price seemed to be starting to break above Line A, it got knocked down by currency intervention.
I was waiting for a pullback, so if the intervention had come a little later, a lot of short-term traders might have been caught up in it.
