From Tokyo with Tech: Daily AI Scalping Signals for Profitable Trades (Thursday, April 17, 2025)

📊Today Forex Outlook - Updated for "Thursday, April 17, 2025💹"
Hello traders around the world, greetings from Tokyo—AI Trader KYO here.
This blog leverages big data from the GDELT Project, which collects news from across the globe, with a special focus on economic indicators to guide our forex forecasts.

Yesterday’s U.S. retail‑sales beat set the tone: a textbook 25‑pip pop in USD/JPY rewarded the pre‑release long. Staying in North America, a steadied hand from the Bank of Canada drove CAD strength and another tidy 20‑pip gain for our short USD/CAD. Not every play landed—Powell’s caution on tariffs clipped a 10‑pip loss in EUR/USD, and mixed Australian jobs data weighed on AUD/USD for –15 pips—but tight stops kept the day’s net at +20 pips. The results reinforce our edge in high‑impact data while reminding us that forward‑guidance events still demand disciplined risk control. Overall, the strategy closed the session 2‑for‑2 on first‑tier releases and continues to post a healthy cumulative win rate.

Japan AI Exo Scalp EA – An Innovative Solution for Implementing Trading Strategies

Japan AI Exo Scalp EA runs a six-step AI analysis process every time a new bar is confirmed on the chart.

[Bar Update]: Once a new bar is confirmed, automatic analysis begins.
[Technical Analysis]: Quantifies market conditions using trend, volatility, RSI, etc.
[Data Sent to ChatGPT]: The collected market data is sent to the latest GPT model (e.g., GPT-4.5, GPT-4 Turbo) to obtain optimal signals.
[GPT Trade Decision]: The AI returns instructions such as “buy,” “sell,” or “hold.”
[EA Signal Filtering]: Strictly checks safe trading conditions based on spread, RSI, and time of day.
[Trade Execution]: Executes entries with confidence once conditions are met.

Rather than aiming for ultra-fast scalping, it focuses on precise analysis and solid risk management to achieve stable entries in major currency pairs (EUR/USD, USD/JPY, GBP/JPY, etc.).
(Note: The figures and forecasts above are hypothetical; please consult the latest real data and forecasts from relevant institutions.)
