1️⃣ USD/JPY (Dollar/Yen)

Current price: about 159.50 to 159.70 yen

? Market structure and big players’ targets

Beyond 160.00 yen, intervention risk and sell orders line up, while around 158.80 yen (S1) there are buy orders and at the same time “short-term long stops (sell liquidity)” concentrate. Big players tend to sweep through liquidity-thin periods (sweep) and trigger counter-trades as volume surges.

? Strategy and liquidity approach

• Daily:Uptrend persists but higher wiggles in the high-price zone reduce chasing liquidity. Wait for liquidity recovery around S1 (158.80).
• 4-hour:Box: 158.80–160.20. Observe whether selling pressure subsides near S1.
• 1-hour:When rebounding to 160.00 (R1), confirm “buying exhaustion” as volume drops sharply, then sell back on strength.
• 15-minute:If price breaks below S1 and momentum continues, follow with a short. If volume surges after the break and then reverses to form a long upper wick, consider liquidity recovery and switch to a long quickly.
• 5-minute:Watch the first waves of liquidity around fixings (9:55) and London Open (16:00). After the first wave is negated, wait for a counter-move with a 5-minute candlestick pattern in the opposite direction and ride it.

2️⃣ Nikkei Stock Average (Nikkei 225 Futures)

Current price: about 64,800 to 65,000 yen

? Market structure and big players’ targets

Last night’s futures plunge left the order book sparse. At the open, even small orders can move prices considerably, so fixed-line counter-orders are extremely risky. Large players aim at liquidity-thin price bands to push prices down and target stops around 64,500 yen (S1). They watch for liquidity to accumulate there and plan to sweep higher.

? Strategy and liquidity approach

• Daily:64,500 yen (S1) is the absolute starting point of the daily trend. If broken, the trend hinges on whether the body holds or ends with a wick.
• 4-hour:Declining waves prevail. Check for thin buy orders during autonomous rebounds, and the basic strategy is “mean reversion selling” at R1 (65,300)–R2 (65,800).
• 1-hour:If gains stall near 65,300 and sell orders thicken rapidly, confirm a short with a bullish candle pattern.
• 15-minute:If you break below the recent low of 64,800 and momentum continues, follow with a short. If big buy orders appear immediately after the break and invalidate the move, exit promptly and switch to a long.
• 5-minute:From 9:00–9:30 liquidity is volatile and ranges are wide—avoid forcing trades. After 9:30, break the 5-minute range with price action and follow volatility in the direction of momentum.

3️⃣ GOLD spot / XAUUSD

Current price: about 4,380.00 to 4,410.00 dollars

? Market structure and big players’ targets

Major institutions such as Goldman Sachs set a 4,900-dollar target for 2026 and maintain a medium-term to longer-term bias to buy dips; in the short term, this asset experiences the most frequent stop-hunting. Large players intentionally push below 4,380 (S1) or 4,335 (S2), triggering stops from individual investors, then absorb liquidity and aggressively buy up in one sweep.

? Strategy and liquidity approach

• Daily:4,380–4,335 dollars is a thick daily buy zone. Treat the whole zone as a region, not a single point.
• 4-hour:In moves testing the low, look for volume concentration around the prior low (4,335) or just below it as large orders are placed.
• 1-hour:After breaking R1 (4,430) on the 1-hour, enter on a test of 4,430 again rather than fixed orders, watching for a long signal from a candlestick lower wick.
• 15-minute:If price breaks S2 (4,335) and selling momentum does not accelerate (no follow-through), it’s a big-liquidity trap. When a long lower wick forms on a 15-minute chart, consider a liquidity-recovery long.
• 5-minute:If the lower wick appears repeatedly and price does not drop, do not lock in profits with fixed targets; instead, be flexible and exit as the 5-minute candle breaks or momentum fades.

4️⃣ Bitcoin (BTC/USD)

Current price: about 76,900 to 77,200 dollars

? Market structure and big players’ targets

The crypto market is full of highly leveraged individual investors, making it prone to cascaded liquidations when specific lines are broken, causing overshoots. The current dip below 77,000 dollars finds large players absorbing the liquidity created by forced selling of individuals at low prices.

? Strategy and liquidity approach

• Daily:76,500 (S1)–75,200 (S2) is a historically high-volume demand zone. Maintain a bullish bias.
• 4-hour:Watch for volume spikes during drops. After a clearing of liquidation, wait for the 4-hour body to be pushed back above 77,000 or more.
• 1-hour:If price breaks above 78,000 (R1) on the 1-hour and then holds, treat the prior decline as a liquidity-recovery trap and look for a long.
• 15-minute:If price makes new lows while oscillators and volume diverge, selling pressure may be exhausted. Consider a long on a bullish 15-minute candle.
• 5-minute:When the order book thins and volatility spikes, do not take profit at fixed levels; instead, exit mechanically at the moment the 5-minute candle breaks or momentum fades. Adjust profit-taking and stops flexibly to the liquidity waves.
