Today I attempted to sell CADJPY with a stop-loss order placed at 114.35 and a take-profit order at 113.97. On the M15 timeframe, CADJPY appears to be attempting to climb back toward the moving average (MA) line, but failed to make a significant breakout and instead showed signs of rejection. This reinforces the assumption that the primary trend remains bearish, and the previous uptrend could be categorized as a retracement or temporary correction rather than a trend reversal.

My open sell position on CADJPY hit take profit, resulting in a $1.20 profit. CADJPY on the M15 timeframe briefly dropped to 113.70, and there's a possibility that CADJPY will correct first, at least toward the nearest supply area.

Today I attempted to sell Bitcoin with a stop-loss order placed at 95742.60 and a take-profit order at 94974.67. On the M15 chart, Bitcoin experienced a sharp decline on the left side of the chart, followed by a prolonged period of sideways movement. Generally, this is a classic pattern: a large drop followed by consolidation. Typically, there are two possible outcomes for this type of structure: a further breakout downwards following the main trend, or a reversal if buyers begin to aggressively enter.

Today I attempted to buy Litecoin with a stop-loss order placed at 74.06 and a take-profit order at 75.86. Litecoin on the M15 timeframe: If we look closely, we see a small flag or pennant pattern after a sharp rise, where the price narrows within a horizontal range. This pattern often appears before a breakout in the direction of the previous trend. However, the continuation of this pattern is unclear as the price has re-entered a broad sideways phase without any impulse volume.

Today I attempted to buy Ethereum with a stop-loss order placed at 3298.48 and a take-profit order at 3329.92. As Ethereum approached the middle to end of the M15 chart, a gradual change occurred. The price began approaching the moving average (MA) and moved slightly sideways below it. Eventually, the price broke above the MA with a strong bullish candle, signaling a shift in sentiment from bearish to neutral or early bullish.

Today I attempted to buy Riple with a stop-loss order placed at 2.0547 and a take-profit order at 2.0828. Riple's price action on the M15 timeframe shows a fairly even battle around this equilibrium area. There is no absolute buyer or seller dominance while the price is around this line. However, judging by the candlestick pattern appearing at the very end of the chart, there is a tendency for a further rise.

Today I attempted to sell EURUSD with a stop-loss at 1.1708 and a take-profit at 1.1676. On the M15 timeframe, the current EURUSD market is trending towards a bearish consolidation phase or correction within the larger trend. Buyers are still seen defending the lower support, but there's no strong evidence of a bullish impulse capable of changing the market structure. Conversely, sellers appear to be consistently defending the resistance area and moving averages as the upper limit of price movement.

Today I attempted to sell GBPUSD with my stop-loss placed at 1.3448 and take-profit at 1.3416. GBPUSD on the M15 timeframe. From a candlestick pattern perspective, there are several signals worth noting. At the peak, a candlestick with a fairly long upper tail is visible, indicating price rejection at the upper level. This pattern indicates that every time the price rises to that area, sellers immediately respond aggressively.

Today I attempted to buy USDX with a stop-loss order at 98.61 and a take-profit order at 98.94. On the M15 timeframe, the USDX displayed a long-bodied bearish candle, indicating a strong selling impulse. Candlesticks like this usually indicate the unwinding of long positions or the entry of large sellers. After this impulse, the price entered a consolidation phase with small candles and relatively balanced tails. This pattern indicates the market is adjusting, gathering liquidity, before continuing its next move.

Today I attempted to buy GBPJPY with a stop-loss at 212.87 and a take-profit at 213.50. On the M15 timeframe, the GBPJPY moving average (MA) is moving up with a relatively gentle slope, indicating a steady but not aggressive uptrend. The price mostly moves above the MA, and whenever a correction occurs, the area around the MA often serves as a rebound point. This indicates that the MA serves as quite reliable dynamic support.
