EUR / JPY Update: Wednesday 12th December 2012 17:30hrs

EUR / JPY

Price has continued to make its way to the target of 108.80.

Today's high is 108.64 that is a profit in excess of 4%.

With the latest round of QE from the US I expect the target will be hit this evening

As you can see the Stochastic has remained overbought for the past 24hours, meaning that there has been no pullback, allowing a good risk reward entry.

If I had just jumped in at the market price of 107.05 the stop loss would have been 65 pips meaning a move of 325 pips would be required to make 5%

I was close, but no cigar on this occasion.

I will update again when the next strategy trade has been identified

Have a good evening
