It can be good to specify a price based on key points on the Candlestick (e.g., moving averages).When wanting to avoid sudden market fluctuations.Even during sharp rises or falls, it is possible to avoid the risk of being All Filled at an unintended price. Since slippage does not occur like it does with a Market Order, calm trading becomes possible.When dealing with stocks with low liquidity...

Interest rates are one of the important factors in investment, and it is essential to deepen understanding of the Bond market before the FOMC meeting that determines the policy interest rate.
In this FOMC meeting, 'holding the policy interest rate steady' is considered likely. Looking back at past cases, in markets where such expectations have already been priced in, there were instances where Bond prices rose (interest rates fell) after the FOMC.
In the current situation where concerns about a recession and expectations for interest rate cuts are affecting market psychology, learning about the factors that influence Bond yields will be useful for future investment strategies.

This is because expectations for the "Index Effect" suggest the possibility of price increase or decrease.Index Effectsuggesting the possibility of price increase or decrease due to expectations of the Index Effect.

In response to the shortfall of 18 seats needed to secure a majority, cooperation with the Constitutional Democratic Party and the Innovation Party is being explored. In this election, the Constitutional Democratic Party significantly increased its number of seats from 7 to 28, raising expectations for expansionary fiscal policies. As a result, there is a particular focus on the movements of the Constitutional Democratic Party. However, the formation of a coalition government has many uncertainties, and the possibility of a minority cabinet still remains.
