Hello. If I have euro , is it correct that I should bring euro and change in Japan (euro to yen direct) instead of changing locally in SG (euro-sgd-yen?) ? Or would it not make a difference? Thanks.

Don't worry lor! If yen really strengthen that much.

Maybe Japan will be back to few years ago scenario. Higher Cost = Less tourist = More enjoyable for those who can afford!

Last time i went Japan, much much less people. Can walk in kyoto and totally quiet. Now filled with tourists especially from China.

Actually I didn't predict. I got advise from people only. Actually all these crisis I was told few months ago.

The people advise you very zai, few mths ago can already predict china devalue yuan! Haha

Last night lowest it hit about 83 when $yen at that moment dropped 400pips.

Sea of red.

Those who know the market well, is it better to change now for your trip in Dec/Jan or better to wait a while? Wanted to buy when it reached 10.8x but the nearby money changers all sold out.

How do you calculate the difference between if changed at 11.3 & now (11.8)?

Like in that sense, how much we "lost"

 

[Vismark]

How do you calculate the difference between if changed at 11.3 & now (11.8)?

If you change at 11.3 you will get roughly 88.49
And if you change at 11.8 will be around 84.74

If change 1k sgd will have a difference of 3750Yen.

So lose 3750Yen.

Like in that sense, how much we "lost"

1/(11.3 or 11.8/1000) x (whatever amount u want)
then minus each other off. then take the diff and do simple yen to sgd conversion.

3750 yen is kinda sgd40+
