MARKET COLOR FOR THE WEEK 19TH JANUARY 2026
Jan 18, 2026 5:01 pm
Hi ,
Happy New Week!
How was trading at your end last week?
It was quite slow but profitable here, especially for those who followed our daily market colour.
Remember: "In trading, fortune only favours those who dare to take bold steps."
Hereโs our analysis for the week ahead at Value Flow Trading:
USD: Last week, the Dollar was bullish throughout the week, attempting to take out the buy-side liquidity, but with low momentum even at the release of the CPI and PPI data.
This week, we expect a continuation of the BUY, followed by a pullback.
This creates first SELL (SHORT) opportunities, followed by a BUY (LONG) on pairs such as GBP/USD and EUR/USD.
Check the chart below for detailed insights.
JPY: Last week, the Yen Basket was bearish, clearing the all-time low of 2024, and resumed the bullish move on Wednesday as there is now an intervention for the Yen.
This week, we anticipate a resumption of the bullish correction on the Yen, as it has already repriced properly into the weekly order block.
This presents long-term SELL opportunities on Yen-correlated pairs.
Charts below provide specific levels and structure.
GOLD: Gold was overall bullish last week. After taking out the all-time high at the market open, it remained in consolidation till the market close.
This week, we expect a pullback, followed by a continuation of the bullish trend.
Check the chart below for detailed insights.
Remember to trade cautiously and implement proper risk management this week.
