Market Bulletin Jan 15: Stocks Struggle in Tug-of-War, Bitcoin Hits New All-Time High.

Release Time: 10:00, January 15, 2026 Issuer: Mr. Loki

1. Stock Market:

Vietnam Market: The market is currently struggling around the 1,900-point threshold and temporarily closed in the red. Higher liquidity compared to the previous session indicates that profit-taking pressure persists, putting short-term pressure on the index. Fluctuations within the 1,870–1,920 range (the upper boundary of the medium-to-long-term price channel) may continue. However, the market still has chances of finding support during corrections thanks to active cash flow and efforts to absorb supply.
US Market: On Jan 15, Wall Street retreated from record highs due to heavy selling in the tech sector. The S&P 500 fell ~0.53% to ~6,926.6, the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped ~0.09% to ~49,149.6, and the Nasdaq Composite lost ~1.00% to ~23,471.8. This reflects clear caution following a strong rally as investors await new economic data.

2. Forex:

AUD/USD: Primary trend is Bearish. Daily Resistance: 0.66800; Daily Support: 0.66700. Consider Buy positions if price breaks above the daily resistance.
EUR/USD: Primary trend is Bearish. Daily Resistance: 1.16600; Daily Support: 1.16300. Consider Buy positions if price breaks above the daily resistance.

3. Gold:

Performance: After failing to conquer the $4,640 mark, Gold turned sharply lower, breaking through short-term support levels. It is currently trading at $4,595.
Structure: A negative signal appeared as the price pierced the EMA 28 (yellow line) at $4,619. The short-term uptrend structure is broken, shifting into a deep correction phase.

4. Oil:

XTI/USD: Primary trend is Bullish. Daily Resistance: 62.30; Daily Support: 60.20. Consider Buy positions if price breaks above the daily resistance.

5. Bitcoin:

Performance: BTC reached a new All-Time High (ATH) around $97,442, but profit-taking has pushed the price back to $96,508.
Structure: Despite the correction, BTC maintains a solid Uptrend. The price is leaning on short-term EMAs (blue/red). The EMA 28 support (yellow line) at $95,784 will act as a "cushion" if a deeper correction occurs.
