Weekly DAO｜Next Week's Focused Currencies (Week 3 of September 2026)

～Interpreting Market Environment with DAO～

Hello.

Thank you again for reading “Weekly DAO” this week.

As September reaches its mid-month, we’re starting to feel the seasonal changes little by little. In the market, factors that can easily affect the currency market—US inflation and interest rates, crude oil prices, and Japan’s monetary policy—are piling up.

In such a situation, this week as well we will use DAO to organize our environment recognition for next week.

What this project places importance on is not predicting whether it will go up or down next week.

Right now, which direction is the long-term chart headed?
What about the short-term chart?
Where is the current price relative to the EMA20?

The purpose is to organize these pieces of information one by one and confirm what state the current market is in.

DAO is an indicator that I actually use in real trading. This article also shares my personal environment recognition and is not intended as investment advice.

Now, let's look at it from DAO this week as well.

This Week's DAO One Point

“Higher-Timeframe EMA20 Panel”

What I want to introduce is DAO’s “Higher-Timeframe EMA20 Panel.”

When you’re just starting to trade, you tend to judge only based on the time frame you’re looking at now.

For example, if you only look at H1 and it’s rising, but on D1 it’s downward, or conversely, if H1 is falling but W1 is rising.

DAO’s higher-timeframe EMA20 panel allows you to check EMA20 on MN1, W1, D1, H4, H1 all at once.

This is extremely convenient.

Not “buy because the current leg is up,” but

“What about the long term?”
“What about the medium term?”
“What about the short term?”

Can be checked at once.

In DAO, by looking at the “direction” for each timeframe, we organize the balance of power among market participants.

Are the directions aligned, or are opinions divided?

Even this alone can significantly change how the chart looks.

Top 3 Currencies to Watch Next Week

3rd Place

CADJPY

CADJPY this time is downward on MN1, W1, D1, H4, and H1, with DAO indicating “selling pressure.” The current price is 37.5 pips below the H1 EMA20, so in the short term it is a scene to see where it will rebound. The point of interest is that the direction is aligned from long to short term.

2nd Place

USDJPY

USDJPY also shows all timeframes from MN1 to H1 downward, with DAO indicating “selling pressure.” The H1 EMA20 is around 153.819, about 33.1 pips above the current price. The H4 EMA20 is around 154.063, nearby, making it easy to compare H1 and H4 EMA20 together. With many factors in the yen market, this is a currency pair to check separately from DAO and market environment.

1st Place

NZDJPY
