Where do you set the profit target between the H4 and H1 chart.
I mean...
Let's assume USD/JPY bounce off upwards.
This is H4 chart.
This is H1 chart.

If you pick the H1 target then you will reach your target sooner but get less profit, if you pick the H4 target it will take significantly longer to reach (a few days) and also may have several larger pullbacks on the way but your patience should be rewarded in the end, since it goes with the rules for H4.
I would personally go with the bigger H4 target, also for another reason - that usually the price reaches the upper trend line of the ascending triangle (or other trend lines which act as resistances). So I think that a TP of 84.480 should be a good place because it's just below 84.500 which is a round number and therefore another potential resistance too, and since it is close enough to the other targets - the top of the last light blue H4 zigzag and the dark blue upper line of the ascending triangle.
p.s. That specific trade is no longer valid because it crossed the bottom trend line, but my advice would be valid if it would have bounced, instead.
