Volatility continues to rise across all markets and USD/JPY continues to lead the way

As the US stock markets prepare to reopen in the red we have seen some sharp and volatile moves in the US equity futures over the past hour and more so since the last update here noted the opening outlook for the S+P 500. At the same time the swings in the USD/JPY have been plentiful and in truth it has been anything you want it to be inside 153.25 and 154.25 over the past 3-4 hours. That makes for plenty of opportunity, but as repeated here again yesterday, you need to be dexterous and not greedy and bank those gains when you have them. Do not beat yourself up because you think you left stuff on the table. A win is a win and there will be plenty more buses along for you to catch a ride. However, beware volatility is on the rise people and you need to adjust your tactics across all markets accordingly. The USD/JPY is currently trading at 153.98
