GBPUSD: The price increase is not enough to reverseHello traders, in yesterday's trading session, after a slight increase in price towards the activity zone of the GBPUSD EMA, it quickly returned to a downward direction. The price action seems to lack enough strength to sustain the upward movement, indicating a possible reversal for this currency pair.
Currently, the price is trading around the 1.217 level with a target to continue declining. The support level at 1.206 is being targeted at this time.

USD/JPY remains capped below the 150.00 markThe USD/JPY pair is still limited to a narrow range of about 149.75 during the first trading hours in Asia on Wednesday. The yield of US Treasury bonds has strengthened the main pair of money. At a level of 150.00, investors still prevent the possibility that the Japanese government intervenes.
However, the greener has attracted some buyers thanks to the optimistic US data on Tuesday, but the impact exists only in a short time.
In addition, US industrial production increased by 0.3% compared to the previous month, stronger than expected. Finally, the capacity used increased to 79.7, better than estimated. Meanwhile, the higher interest rate of US Treasury bonds can limit the discount of USD and act as a support factor for USD/JPY pair.
BTCUSD continues to increase in a positive wayHello dear friends. BTC is currently emerging as a new trend as investors are pouring their capital into BTC as a safe haven while the market becomes unstable.
Currently, BTC is trading at $27,242. It can be seen that the cryptocurrency is continuing to recover after a decline and encountering the trendline.
Regarding prospects: the price in the week will be influenced by important news to note this week:
- Retail sales MOM announced on 17/10
- Speech by the Fed chairman announced on 19/10
If it is good news, it is obvious that BTC will have the potential to surpass the barrier of $28,000 and continue to increase rapidly.
EURUSD: Long discount has not endedHello dear friends!
Currently, EURUSD has started to retreat from its uptrend breakout and is now heading towards a prolonged downward journey. The price is currently trading steadily at 1.0551, with a slight increase, testing the area of operation of EMA 34 and 89. However, there doesn't seem to be any signs of recovery as there hasn't been any reversal from the two EMA lines.
Therefore, the downward trend is expected to begin soon, with price targets at 1.0496 and even lower at 1.0448.
What are your thoughts on the upcoming movement of EU?
EUR/USD holds higher ground below 1.0600 amid softer US DollarHello dear friends,
Currently, the EUR/USD is holding at a higher level but still below the 1.0600 mark in Asian trading on Wednesday. The flow of risk is dominating and weighing on the US Dollar, especially in light of optimistic data from China. The speeches by Lagarde and EU/US data are being closely watched.
On the 1-hour chart, the price is well supported with technical indicators showing an upward trend. The current resistance level is around 1.0600, and breaking through that level will attract attention to 1.0630. Closing above that level will pave the way for further profits.

Update GBPUSD: Continue to plunge into the abyssHello dear friends. Today, GBPUSD continues its downward trend with prices trading around the 1.220 level and there are no signs of a halt yet.
From the technical analysis chart:
It can be seen that after forming the ABCD pattern, with wave D ending at a high of 1.315, GU started a prolonged SELL movement for several months, despite some upward movements, it was not enough to reverse the direction of this currency pair.
With this decline, GU is currently aiming for lower levels, with the nearest target at 1.203 and then 1.180. The resistance level is at 1.231.
USD/JPY Side Way at the end of the weekHello everyone!
USDJPY is trading quietly as it fails to break through the strong resistance level at 149.85, as the Bank of Japan (BoJ) is expected to release inflation forecasts for fiscal years 2023 and 2024 earlier than anticipated.
In terms of technical analysis:
- In the short term, I believe that the USD/JPY pair will fluctuate within a sideways range around the price level of 149.85 and 149.40, as the market seems to lack any significant volatility.
- In the long term, I believe that once it breaks out of this barrier, this currency pair will continue its positive trend with an expected increase towards 150.00.
Clear target for USDJPY to rise to $150.00 USDGreetings, dear friends! Today, the USDJPY has continued its upward trend as expected. Upon examining the 1-hour chart closely, it becomes evident that the pair has yet to surpass the nearest resistance zone located at 149.43. At present, the pair is trading within a range around 149.12. The formation of a sustained uptrend has provided support for the pair, while the closest support level at 148.99 has played a significant role in driving its upward movement.
Based on the above analysis, it is apparent that Alselv's target lies at 150.00. Alselv has previously identified this target by successfully surpassing the current nearest resistance level at 149.71.
Gold's short-term decline is expected to reach 1900 USDHello everyone, today the gold market is quite calm as there is little macroeconomic data from the United States being released. The market is waiting for information from the Chairman of the Federal Reserve, Jerome Powell, on October 19th when he speaks at the New York Economic Club.
Due to this reason, gold sellers continue to push prices down, and gold is currently at $1920 with an expected decrease to $1900. This downward trend will continue until any positive developments occur that could lead to a price increase.
EURUSD - Price may test resistance and then continue to declineHello dear friends!
EURUSD today has undergone a significant short-term recovery and is currently trading calmly at 1.0550 since the time of writing. The tensions in the Middle East and higher-than-expected inflation figures in the United States have boosted the demand for the safe-haven US Dollar.
From the analysis chart, we can observe that a downward trend channel has formed with a breakout level at 1.0604. Despite some short-term rebounds, there isn't enough momentum to escape the downward trend.
The target for this week is 1.0448. The important levels to consider are:
Support levels: 1.0495, 1.0450, 1.0400
Resistance levels: 1.0570, 1.0610, 1.0650
EURUSD - Pay attention to the ZEW surveyHello dear friends, the EURUSD pair today continues to rise as predicted. It is currently trading at 1.0549. However, market participants are awaiting the ZEW Economic Sentiment Survey in October, which is expected to improve from -8.9 to -8.0. The major currency pair is currently trading around 1.0559, down 0.02% for the day. This could be seen as a sign of restraining the future rise of Gold in the near and short term.
For the above reasons, the expected downward trend is likely to start soon, with a projected price of 1.0494 and possibly even lower at 1.0449.
Gold's recovery is uncertainHello dear friends! Let's explore and share our opinions here. Gold has made a significant recovery above the $1857 mark. The precious metal continues its journey to conquer $1880.
Due to concerns arising from the Israel-Hamas conflict, investors have been prompted to buy more. Wednesday and Thursday will bring us market news.
As a result, the short-term surge in gold buyers has pushed the price of gold to $1900. Although this recovery is not yet certain, there may still be price drops in the future.
Fed's influence in the near futureHello dear friends!
Today, Gold continues its downward trend, currently trading at $1913. The main reason for this is the technical selling pressure following the previous 3% surge, driven by safe-haven demand.
In addition to the developments in the Middle East, investors are also paying attention to the US monetary policy stance, with Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell's speech later this week. According to the CME FedWatch tool, markets are predicting a 90% chance that the Fed will keep interest rates unchanged at its policy meeting next month. This will have some impact on gold. In the near future, the market may retest the previously broken resistance level. In the long term, the market may receive support from various factors, including the buying activity of central banks. The strong and sustainable gold buying by central banks has provided a solid foundation for the recent price surge and will be the main driving force pushing the precious metal to new all-time highs in the new year. On the other hand, central bank buying could be the reason why gold has maintained a significant support level of $1800/ounce during the selling pressure caused by rising interest rates.
Next goal 30,000 USDHello dear friends, BTC continues to rise as predicted yesterday.
Looking at the technical picture on the 4-hour time frame, BTC has reached the target of $30,000. However, it quickly retreated and is currently trading at $28,299.
In the short term, BTC may experience a slight decline before the long-term upward momentum towards $30,000 occurs.
New trading strategy for gold: increase prices to new high levelHello comrades, Today gold continues to trade around the 1913 USD mark with not much change compared to yesterday.
From the 1D chart analysis, it can be seen that gold, after a strong price increase last Friday, is showing signs of price retesting after breaking out of the downward trend at 1910 USD.
Currently, the immediate target for gold is gradually approaching the 1905 USD area (close to the operating area of EMA 34 and 89). If this target is achieved and gold maintains stable trading levels there, a new upward trend will occur with the nearest target at 1936 USD, followed by a higher peak at 1980 USD.
Gold price today: strong price increaseDear beloved friends, Currently, gold is showing a strong recovery trend as its price surged approximately 38 USD in a single day. It is expected that the price of gold will continue to rise up to 1920 USD, reaching the upper limit of the price channel from its high level of 2050 USD. This area also coincides with the operation zone of the EMA 89 line.
What are your thoughts on the future price of gold?
Gold price today: Buy it massively!Hello dear friends!
Today, XAUUSD is trading at the level of 1917 USD and there haven't been many changes compared to the previous trading session.
From now until the end of the week, the gold market is quite calm, as there is little macroeconomic data from the US being released. Currently, we need to wait for information from the Chairman of the Federal Reserve, Jerome Powell, on October 19 when he speaks at the Economic Club of New York.
It is expected that in the near future, the long-term downward trend of gold will continue. Political uncertainties continue to be factors driving the upward momentum of gold. It is anticipated that by the end of this week, the price of gold will trade in the range of 1,900 to 1,950 USD/ounce.
GBPUSD continues to decline as USD continues to dominateHello traders!
GBP/USD closed the last two trading days of the previous week in negative territory. Although this currency pair attempted a modest recovery at the start of Monday, it failed to gain momentum.
At the time of writing, GBP/USD continues to maintain a downward trend, with prices fluctuating around 1.217 and declining by 0.37% for the day. If safe-haven flows continue to dominate the market in the latter half of the day, the US dollar may remain resilient against its counterparts, making it difficult for GBP/USD to find support and continue its downward trajectory.
EUR/USD stays pressured near 1.0550Currently, most of the key economic indicators in the United States have exceeded expectations in October, highlighting the ongoing strength of the US economy and supporting demand for the EU. The dollar has been trading more firmly, although there is a risk that it may start to weaken "due to potentially less positive economic surprises from the US in the near future."
I maintain my strategic view on a lower EUR/USD exchange rate, as I still see the possibility of a weaker USD." The US retail sales data at 12:30 GMT may be the most important data released this week. The DXY dollar index rose 0.2% to 106.444, while EUR/USD decreased 0.2% to 1.0549 at the time of writing.
Will the DXY index increase?Hello dear friends, Currently, the DXY power index is trading at 106.313, continuing its downward trend and losing 0.34% for the day.
My goal after the slight price decrease of DXY towards the support level of 106.181 (which coincides with EMA 34 and 89) will be a price increase with a target of 107.168, followed by a breakthrough and reaching the end of the Fibonacci indicator at 107.565.
What do you think? Good luck with your trades!
GBPUSD continues to plummet downhillHello dear traders, today the GBPUSD pair continues its downward trend, currently consolidating its gains at 1.2198 and showing no signs of stopping.
My short-term target is at 1.2305. In the long run, this currency pair may continue its downward trend with a rejection at the previous resistance level. It is possible that GU will aim for the nearest low at 1.1800. This downward trend will continue unless there is any supportive news for this currency pair.
USD/JPY gains traction above 149.60 amid the renewed USD demandHello traders! The USD/JPY pair is holding steady at 149.60 during the first trading hour in Europe on Tuesday. The demand for the US Dollar (USD) and the recovery of US Treasury bond yields have provided some support for this currency pair.
Currently, market focus is on the Industrial Production and the speech by the Federal Reserve (Fed) of the United States later on Tuesday. On Wednesday, Japan's trade data will be released, followed by the National Consumer Price Index (CPI) report on Friday. These data points could provide clear direction for the USD/JPY pair, with the target still being to break above 150.000 for further advancement.
Gold decreased slightly in the last session of the weekHello dear traders!
Upon observing the D1 chart, we can see that a downtrend channel is currently in operation, and gold is still showing positive development this week with a high price of $1883. However, it has not yet broken out of the extended downtrend.
With an expected increase reaching 1912, it will be rejected on the downtrend channel and subsequently test the low level of 1855.
