Try USDJPY again...

Broker says nothing is wrong, and I currently have a short coming into this level of entry I was able to place with no issues. I think it may have been a deviation on th order type issue on my end.

Looks like we have pulled a successful reversal through the start of the week, we have a trend line coming up to meet with at a level, which tend to be great signals on the JPY, looking to go long two levels up, hedge down below for the long order.

Entry spotted at 131.8, with a sell hedge at 131.45. Target for the long will be 133.78

Short will be made risk free soon if it continues into the trend line below.

Note
