You ever trade something that you always loose at but still keep going back to the same trade; If you have not ( and I suspect a great many people have not; esp the experienced traders on this board) it's annoying. Not sure why I'm always bias in the wrong direction on the Yen; Smallest divergence leads me to the conclusion the carry trade is over (and why would it end...). Anyway.. If you have some experience w/ trading the yen for a multi day swing trades please provide some help here to a frustrated trader:0. (ie. tips on indicators; current analysis; pointers to strats...). -thx. and to all here have a happy new year.

jjc, Careful dude, an 'unregulated' forex market(s) means 'they' can do what the hell 'they' like(with NO! come back) I personally wouldn't touch "multi-day" time horizon with any currency...(but then,tis each to their own i guess) Try lengthen your time horizon to at least weeks,imvho..(you might fair better)......Well it works for me anyway. No offence,just advice that's all. Regards & Happy New Year...V
