27 January 2020, USD/JPY
USDJPY trading plan:
We are expecting a downtrend to develop. Investors increase short positions on stock markets. This is a negative signal for the USDJPY! The S&P 500 lost 0.9%, while the Nasdaq Composite fell 0.9% and the Dow Jones Industrial Average slumped 0.6%. Signs that virus is spreading took a toll on investor sentiment, with France reporting its maiden case of the outbreak and a second case identified in the U.S. Confirmed cases of the flu-like virus have reached 1000 so far, and are likely to increase further, intensifying fears that areas of the market sensitive to a decline in tourism and air travel are in for rocky ride.
Trading recommendation: Sell 109.15 and take profit 108.90.
