Today I tried to sell EURJPY with a stop-loss at 183.07 and a take-profit at 182.29. EURJPY on the M15 timeframe. Looking at the price action, there was a significant moment when the price attempted to break through the moving average from below but failed to hold. As the price rose, the candlesticks displayed long upper wicks, indicating selling pressure each time the price approached the moving average area. This is a classic signal that sellers are holding the area as dynamic resistance.

Today I attempted to buy EURUSD with a stop-loss order placed at 1.1949 and a take-profit order at 1.2031. The EURUSD chart on the M15 timeframe exhibits an interesting structure, primarily due to a strong impulsive movement followed by a correction and consolidation phase.
