The USD/JPY phase switch whipsawed away from a three-day bear phase that carried the price down 0.4%.

The EUR/JPY pair, by contrast, prior to today's signal saw a substantial bear phase lasting 11 U.S. market days. In that period the price declined 2.5%.

NZD/USD whipsawed back to bear phase after three days in the bull column, a period that saw the price increase by 0.2% in a counter-signal.

The USD/MXN pair's bull phase kicked in during late trading on Tuesday. It ended a three-day bear phase that carried the price down 0.3%.

The analysis uses the daily Person's Proprietary Signal, developed by John Person, and the weekly Person's Pivot, which he also developed.

These are black box signals -- the "proprietary" means that Mr. Person knows how they work under the hood, and I don't. But they have shown a fair degree of success in identifying good entry and exit points, and I find them useful.

On the glance, "pps open" means the price at the start of trading in the United States on the day the signal appeared.
