Well it looks like we've got two Central Banks at work in the market this morning, BOJ who want their currency stronger, and SNB who want to take some heat out of the Franc's recent rises.

Neither. BOJ and SNB are on the same side.

What happened in 1998 two months after the BOJ intervened? Wow....I'd better holding U/J short cuz we might see 120 again in two months...lol.

You know what they say? The bigger she climbs, the harder she falls. I can't wait to see all the big institutions start to unwind and send U/J down to 110 in a day.

SNB wants franc to fall vs EUR and not really the USD. Here BOJ wants Yen to rally against USD. Slight difference.

600pips move might mean the opposite, maybe its just for today

The cross market effect remains the same regardless of the motivation.

BOE will be a non event now. They should just cancel to next week
BOJ is hitting it hard. 142.79 was support before it give way.

How lo my can they keep this up though?
I prefer look for buy usd, bcs they real action in economy way, not intervene with this way ( currency exchange ). Boj never risa the rate, but always intevene like this, how long they can intervene without good solution in economy way ?

Looking at the stock market, i think your right. It went up!
Coordination...and collusion..

And right before the h4 close uj makes a 130 pip wick to the downside. Intervention does not beat true economic activity. And there is nothing fundamentally nor technically backing UJ shorts and a bullish yen. They can only intervene for so long.

Not going to happen. Trend will continue back bullish and no doubt there will be a huge weekly wick to the downside to confirm. They can only intervene for so long. It’s not a trend change.

does this make market choppy
Manipulation price. Market will rebound now
Interesting that SNB started selling CHF just one hour before BOJ started buying JPY. Everything was agreed between the two banks.
Yen is not so strong that USD/JPY can not fall 600 pips. Fill in blanks now start.
Well that's quite a bit of money moved around, but the fundamentals will always win over in the end! Japan still has a negative rate they have no plans to change and just about everyone else is increasing their rates and indicating a willingness to continue doing that. SNB will still continue to grapple with the problem they've been trying to address for a decade i.e. a strong Franc.

Plus ça change, plus c'est la même chose

Wait.....

500 pips is typical for this type of intervention but the BoJ/Government may have a short-term target in mind

BoJ raised the rate to 0.50% at their last meeting. First time +ve for many years.

Oops.... I just looked and seems the rate is still -0.1%

The last time it was up there was 2008.

You are correct ... I am confused with the SNB who just raised their rate to +0.50%

Wait until 30th Sept when BoJ annouce the size
manipulation ;-) 700 pips drop UJ Volatilty is king
I also don't understand the rationale behind SNB's move.

Their CPI was surprisingly higher at the beginning of the month, also their unemployment rate reduced by 0.1% recently .. so maybe they are trying to be ahead of the game.

However the Swiss don't seem to be suffering currency outflows so ....?
