You're absolutely right. Last time, after seeing the news about BoJ's intervention, I went long on JPY while I was on leave—and my account got blown out.

You need to sell US bonds and raise interest rates, empty talk won't help much.

Katayama is really nice and competent but she's not keen on the USD at all and is clearly forced to intervene. Just check her speeches and specially body language.

Stop playing forex XAUUSD! Retail is just a staple food for the global elite. Even a piece of fried news like this can cause a 300-pip price fluctuation. Gold is trash.

are we trading a different Xauusd? my chart didn't show any 300 pip fluctuation when this news came out. only earlier in the day like 5 hours ago with the usd news but that move could've been premediated with price action and indicators.

Be careful what you wish for - check out what happened when the Swiss bank capitulated in 2015 without giving a warning. Approx 3500 pip move in a few seconds, many traders were totally wiped out as stops couldn't be actioned, some brokers went belly up - which immediately closed all trading positions with those brokers no matter which way your trade was positioned or what instrument was being traded. Central banks wishing to avoid complete carnage will always give fair warning of potential action - the fact the Swiss didn't shows why.
