Actually, AUDJPY fell almost 100 points yesterday.  But, if Yen is 
weakening I don't know how that could be.  Fundamentals make no 
sense.  I was correct about being short and predicting a trend-
change.  I unnecessarily got stopped out at entry point.  But, my 
daily resistance 1st and 2nd level both got penetrated quite a bit.  
That is to be expected.  My entry points were ok and I just need a 
mental stop about 1 full point above/below entry. I may not need the 
weekly pivots, but there are instances where in conjunction with 
fibonacci retracements, it can be used to predict tops and bottoms...
