The USDJPY had a mini fake break today…

The USDJPY fell below the 100 hour MA and a broken trend line earlier in the NY session which should have been more bearish.  When the dust settled a bit, the price break failed and we are seeing a modest rebound.

In our trading, sometimes what we see and hear from the market price action, doesn’t do what we think it should do.   We get those false/fake breaks that are frustrating, but they also tell us a story about the sellers (and the buyers).  We need to listen and make a judgement from what we see.
