The Nikkei 225 INDEX continues to move chaotically in highly unpredictable and fragmented fashion. At the moment it's been falling for 2 weeks (CC=-2 to be confirmed on Friday).
Since the index is in a phase where it keeps going up and down with no trend, we see an opportunity to accumulate short-term LONG positions on the current pullback.
A small bounce from current levels, rising towards the 41k target, could generate some good returns in a short span of time. This would be a reversal trade.
