Day Trade Strategy (Hourly)
The day-trade policy is range trading. The reaction to the Fibonacci level can be seen.JPY 139.37 corresponds to 61.8% and rebounded once. However, a break out of this price range could lead to a decline to around JPY 138.75. The atmosphere is likely to be that of an adjustment market to await next week’s FOMC and BOJ policy meeting.
Fibonacci Levels
