Today's USD/JPY call: Buy.

Same as GBP/JPY, this has been a rise from a clear pullback, and there was a good trade opportunity around midday.
If the rise stalls around here, it’s a good place to take profit for now.

If you’re looking to enter from here, the ideal scenario is for price to dip once and form a pullback.
I’m watching the area around blue line B as a candidate for the pullback.

No trade.

Price pulled back to Line B, but I can’t buy with this pattern.
Ended the day with wait and see.
