What’s up, everyone.

The global stock markets are gaining momentum before the non-farm payroll tomorrow. Taking a look at the Japanese and German stock market indices, both are offering nice setups to trade.

Nikkei – Weaker Yen Keeping It Bullish

Fellas, there’s a negative correlation exists between Japanese Yen and the Japanese stock index. Therefore, the weakness in Yen causes the bullish trend in NKY.
