Today I attempted to buy EURJPY with a stop-loss order at 170.51 and a take-profit order at 171.03. On the M15 timeframe, the EURJPY candlestick pattern formed during the consolidation phase appears relatively neutral, but several candles with long lower tails indicate buying pressure that appears every time the price tries to decline. This indicates that buying interest is still quite active, although there are no large candles indicating further breakout momentum.

Today I attempted to buy EURUSD with a stop-loss at 1.1561 and a non-profit at 1.1594. The EURUSD chart on the M15 timeframe shows that the price experienced downward pressure, then began to form a gradual recovery pattern with higher lows and higher highs. Although a truly strong uptrend is not yet visible, the breakout from the previous consolidation area and the price now above the moving averages are early indications that buyer strength is beginning to emerge. The market structure is starting to form a higher base, and this strengthens the possibility that the short-term trend is likely bullish.

My open buy position on EURUSD hit my take profit, earning me a profit of $1.50. Buyers are still dominating the EURUSD market, and it's currently at 1.1661, with a potential further rise today.

On the M15 timeframe, GBPUSD didn't show any major reversal patterns like bearish engulfing patterns or pin bars, which would indicate significant selling pressure.

Today I attempted to sell Gold with a stop-loss at 3378.84 and a take-profit at 3366.14. Gold on the M15 timeframe. Trend-wise, the chart shows that the price experienced a very sharp surge, then declined, and is currently testing the moving average area. Previously, the price was moving in a significant upward trend, but after reaching its peak, selling pressure emerged, causing the price to gradually decline.

My open sell position on gold hit my stop-loss, resulting in a loss of $7.30. I believe gold is likely to decline today, as it's moving below the 200-day moving average (MA200). However, for confirmation, it's best to wait for the support area at 3366.63 to be broken.

Today I attempted to buy GBPJPY with a stop-loss at 195.96 and a take-profit at 196.51. The previous GBPJPY price movement on the M15 timeframe indicated strong bearish pressure, forming a low around 195.25. However, after reaching this low, the price began to rebound gradually, forming a series of higher highs and higher lows. This price increase indicates buyers' attempt to take control of the market, further reinforced by the breaking of the moving average line from bottom to top. The visible red moving average line also indicates a beginning of an upward turn, signaling a potential bullish trend change.

My open buy position on GBPJPY hit my take profit, resulting in a profit of $1.83. There's a possibility that GBPJPY will continue to rise today, as buyers are currently dominating the GBPJPY market.

Today I attempted to sell USDCAD with a stop-loss at 1.3780 and a take-profit at 1.3759. On the M15 timeframe, USDCAD price movement shows continued strong seller dominance. This is evident from the price consistently remaining below the red moving average line, which is likely the 200-day moving average (MA). This line shows a fairly clear downward slope, indicating a bearish medium-term trend. Every time the price attempts to rise and approaches the MA line, selling pressure always arises, pushing it back down. This indicates that the area around the moving average is a fairly strong dynamic resistance.

My open sell position on USDCAD hit the take profit, resulting in a profit of $0.87. Sellers appear to be dominating USDCAD today, as we saw USDCAD drop to 1.3733, and there's a possibility it will drop further today.
