The downtrend is at 1H, so the entry from the zone looked logical. It also gave confidence in the price slowing down when approaching the zone. Entering the shorts at 4 candles, as the supply zone was located below.I expected the rebound from this zone upwards, so it happened.

News on Euro and Swiss pound forced to focus on USD/JPY.
Long and strong downtrend at 1H. Zone 1 is a zone located on 1H and is a good supply area. I expected that the price will not be able to pass it and thus continue the downtrend at 1H. There was also a zone on M5, almost coinciding with the zone on 1H. I decided to look for entry points down near these zones.
1. In the first case, the price formed a sideways zone, where it saw the sellers' forces capable of pushing the price down. The entry is 25 minutes down. The price slowed down when passing the zone by 5M and the transaction closed by 3 pips higher than it was necessary. In any case, the entrance was too early and also did not take into account that the price could slow down when passing the 5M zone.
2. Entering on a very small rollback, consisting of one candle. Entrance down for 20 minutes.
3. The price went higher, to test zone 1H again. Entrance on the sidewall at 1M down for 25 minutes. That's lucky, and the deal closed in +. But in the evening part it will be necessary to find out why the zone was broken and what could help to notice this one before the breaking.

Marked the area on M5 (zone 1), the zone is important. The price approached it with a strong movement, slowed down being in the zone itself, and formed a sidewall (visible on 1M). Since the zone is originally a demand zone, the entrance is up by 3 candles. The movement turned out to be a little stronger than expected, but expectations about the price moving in a certain direction were confirmed. Then the movement turned into a big sideways. Now I look at it and do not understand why I did not take advantage of this situation.
2. Further, the price went for the third time to test zone 1. Here I already expected a breakthrough in the zone, because of the large number of tests and on 1H situation had to it. There was no entry at the breakthrough in the plan, so I was looking for a BPB set, i.e. breakthrough, rollback, and again a continuation of the movement towards the breakthrough. I found a rollback input (on 1M). Entered down by 5 candles.

The price broke through zone 1H and could not fix higher. After that, it formed a rollback and went down. Then it made one more attempt to go up to the zone 1H. Here I was looking for the point of entry down. I found it in the zone itself. Entered down by 5 candlesticks. The price went a little in the expected direction, but then turned around and the deal closed in a pair of points from the expected, that is -. But it doesn't matter if there is either a problem in the expiry or in the initial analysis, in general, we should look into it.

1. Even though the zone wasn't strong for me, I decided to go down from it. Waiting for the price to sink further into the formed, not big channel. Now I've described why I shouldn't have come in and why the price didn't go my way.
2. I was afraid to enter at the very top, because of the proximity of the next zone. I decided to wait and see how the price would behave near the lower zone. The price formed a setback. The entrance after it is down by 5 candles.

This area is strong, so I expected a bounce and was looking for the point of entry to the shorts. Found it on the price slowdown in front of the zone. Entered down by 4 candles, because of the proximity of the zone below.

1. A descending trend on 1H. Everyone was trying to catch a downward impulse near the zones. The first zone turned out to be an unsuccessful place to enter, it fully embodies my deal.
2. The second zone showed itself better and kept the buyers' pressure. Entering down by five candles.

Used a BPB pattern near an important area. On 1M you can see how the price slowed down when approaching the zone backwards. Entering down for 20 minutes.

EUR/USD

I have so far removed AUD/CAD and USD/CHF from my list of currency pairs, for some reasons. AUD/CAD: completely stopped finding TP deals there, I will look at my deals on this СP. Then I think, I'll return it. USD/CHF has a strong inverse correlation with EUR/USD, and when you follow them at the same time, it is hard to honestly find deals, I had a constant internal alarm, so I have removed it so far.

Today I have a good understanding of the EUR/USD structure. The price was approaching the important Zone 1 with a strong movement. At first, I expected a rebound from the zone. The price tested this zone for the first time and as you can see at 5M, it went very far and even broke through a bit. If you look at 5M, you can see that the last 3 candles in the impulse to the zone, suggesting a fading motion. At 1M, at the same time, we can observe the congestion formed at the top of the zone. After the congestion, the price went up, but it already showed the moments weaker than in the previous movement. Then, it expected the downside movement and the formation of a small pullback (weak candles from the buyers) to make sure the rebound. The price went down faster than I wanted to see. In the first trade, the downside entry was made, without any confirmation of a weak rebound. The entrance went down for 20 minutes. Next, the price forms a weak rebound, that is, my confirmation. The second entry down for 25 minutes. I chose the operation taking into account zone 2 as a possible place of price reversal.

There's a huge amount of news on the euro, so I couldn't trade it. On JPY, a downward trend. The price is locked in the sideways channel, between 2 zones. On the second test zone 1, the price came up with less strength and spent a long time in this zone. The entrance to the shorts was read according to the trend. But I didn't base on one trend, so I decided to wait and see how the price would show itself on a smaller TP. On the smaller TF, I saw the slowdown and pressure from the sellers, what I wanted to see.Entering the shorts by 4 сandles, I expected the movement to the lower zone.
