Trading commodity futures and options involves substantial risk of loss and is not suitable for all investors. You should carefully consider whether trading is suitable for you in light of your circumstances, knowledge and financial resources.

Japanese yen futures rallied today (1/12) as the U.S. dollar index declined.
This move higher for March yen futures gives me a fresh buy signal on the daily chart. This is the first buy signal since the trend changed to the upside and comes after a week or so of apparent consolidation. The 50-day simple moving average is now pointing up on the daily chart. Although the trend is down on the weekly chart I did see a King’s Cross counter-trend buy signal two weeks ago on the weekly chart and the 50-period is pointing up on the weekly chart as well. There was a buy signal in January on the monthly chart for the yen and the trend remains up.
