  • "USDJPY: Retail trader data shows 48.6% of traders are net-long with the ratio of traders short to long at 1.06 to 1. The number of traders net-long is 0.7% lower than yesterday and 8.3% lower from last week, while the number of traders net-short is 1.6% higher than yesterday and 0.2% higher from last week."
