OANDA:EURJPY The pair is extremely overbought also shows signs of divergence. A clear doubletop is forming. At the moment the price action is largely dependent on BoJ decision, but it seems that it is ready to support the Yen. The trade is risky, but the reward is considerable.

At the end of this week there will be a meeting of the Bank of Japan, where the interest rate will be decided, and most importantly, the immediate prospects for monetary policy will be announced. A large number of market participants expect intervention from the Bank of...

The trade is moderately risky as we have no means of knowing when and how the BoJ will...
