MARKET COLOR FOR THE WEEK 1ST SEPTEMBER 2025
Aug 31, 2025 5:01 pm
Hi ,
Happy New Month!
How was trading on your end last month?
The month was quite engaging as the first day of the week was NFP and the rest of the trading days in the month of August was a rebalancing of the NFP effect in the market.
Remember: "Risk what you can afford to lose; trade to live, not live to trade."
Hereβs our analysis for the week ahead at Value Flow Trading:
USD: Last week, the dollar was bullish as analysed but couldn't trade into our daily POI before the sell.
This week, we anticipate first the completion of the sell move, then a continuation of the bullish retracement.
This suggests first a BUY opportunity, then further selling (SHORT) opportunities on pairs like GBP/USD and EUR/USD.
Check the chart below for detailed insights.
JPY: The Yen basket was overall bearish last week with low volume, but yet to clear the weekly liquidity level.
This week, we anticipate a liquidity sweep, followed by a resumption of the bullish trend.
This presents an initial buying (LONG) opportunity on Yen pairs, followed by a potential selling (SHORT) setup.
Check the chart for specific details..
GOLD: Last week, the precious metal was bullish trading higher to take out liquidity on the buy side. However, it still remains within the trading range.
This week, we anticipate first a buy, followed by a potential sell-off, as detailed in the chart below.
Remember to trade cautiously and implement proper risk management this month.
