All This Argy-Bargy IS Creating A Potential Opportunity

With the North Korean rhetoric pushing capital into the safe havens such as CHF and JPY a need for a cool head is needed. Money has been made be on the risk-off environment, however this will not last and the current movement should be seen as a shorter term pullback in the midst of bigger trending moves. In this context, let's examine EURJPY on multiple time frames.
Monthly
-
This is a monthly heiken ashi chart.
-
The current candle is blue.
-
This indicates a long term monthly uptrend is underway.
Weekly
-
This is a weekly candlestick chart.
-
There is a higher trough followed by a higher peak.
-
Therefore there is a weekly uptrend in force.
4 Hour
-
This is a 4H candlestick chart.
-
EURJPY has pulled back into a strong resistance turned support area (blue rectangle).
-
This area has acted as support (green arrows) and resistance (red arrows) multiple times.
-
It is certainly a level that the market has been taking notice of.
Conclusion
- Look for a change from a risk-off to a risk-on environment.
- When this happens we should see a bounce off current support levels as bulls take advantage of value.
