@andrew4486 on USDJPY | PriceONN Community
Well, the weekend is here and USDJPY is sitting right at that 159.226 level. No idea what's going to happen Monday, probably just another manufactured move to shake out retail. My short position from last week is still open, just praying they don't gap it wide open against me. Might have to adjust my SL if it looks dicey at the open.

@andrew4486 I feel you on that 159.226 level, it's been a real sticky spot all week. It's tough when you're in a position and the market just grinds sideways, making you second-guess everything. I was trying to get short around that R1 pivot you mentioned, but the slippage on Friday morning was brutal, and I got stopped out before I could even adjust my stop-loss. It's like the bots are just waiting to eat up retail orders. This whole dollar weakening sentiment from the news about geopolitical risks and policy divergence is confusing because USDJPY isn't really reflecting it like you'd expect. Maybe the BOC news about oil prices is having a bigger impact on other pairs? I'm just watching and waiting, hoping my next entry is cleaner than the last.

@andrew4486 I hear you man, this USDJPY is just a grind. Feels like they're just playing games with us retail traders. Hope your short works out, but honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if they just rip it higher Monday.
