I’m not expecting any massive moves but with EUR/JPY looking decidedly toppy, and with heavy longs in pairs like NZD/JPY and GBP/JPY starting to exit the market, I’m still solidly in the bear camp for the short-term at least. Selling straight USD/JPY is probably the least risky way of playing this but pairs like CAD/JPY offer more volatility and more interesting risk-reward.

It is Friday after all the traditional risk-off day (although last Friday was completely the opposite).
