9285 is even better... 9275 swing is very small scale to stop against... expect buffeting from EURJPY (EDIT: EURCHF not JPY) as USDCHF has been acting off lately caused by EURCHF turbulence...

9275 stop if you took that.... EURCHF is revaluing after the Imposed 120.00 floor.. above 9275 invalidates pattern I'm trading.... because I'm undersized in EURUSD having taken partial profits already

Target set on EURJPY longs at 122.92... 123.30 is the target everyone is trying hit... there may be a stall at 123.00, and its Friday... Stop moved to 120.60 just below entry swing...

Just booked half position profits at 3460 + 107 pips.... Still think this only top of wave 3... but if it is its the 2.618 extension of wave 1, and the likely limit of wave 3.... Other half stays in play trying for 3480
