XAU/USD 19-23 May 2025 Weekly AnalysisWeekly Analysis:
Swing Structure -> Bullish.
Internal Structure -> Bullish.
Analysis and bias remains the same as analysis dated 16 March 2025.
In my analysis dated 27 October 2024 I mentioned (below) that price could potentially print higher-highs in order to reposition CHoCH. This is exactly how price printed. CHoCH positioning has been brought significantly closer to current price action. CHoCH positioning is denoted with a shortened blue dotted horizontal line.
The remainder of my analysis and bias remains the same as analysis dated 09 February 2025.
Price has printed a further bullish iBOS.
Price is currently trading within an internal low and fractal high. CHoCH positioning is denoted with a blue dashed line.
Price Action Analysis:
In my analysis dated 27 October 2024, it was noted that the first sign of a pullback would be a bearish Change of Character (CHoCH), indicated by a blue dotted line. Price's consistent upward momentum had repositioned previous CHoCH much closer to recent price levels as expected for weeks. Current CHoCH positioning is quite a distance away from price, therefore, it would be viable if price continued bullish to reposition ChOCH.
Note:
It is highly unlikely price will "crash" as many analysts are predicting. My view is this is merely a corrective wave of the primary trend.
Given the Federal Reserve's dovish policy stance alongside heightened geopolitical risks, market volatility is likely to remain elevated, influencing intraday price swings.
Price could also be driven by President Trump's policies, geopolitical moves and economic decisions which are sparking uncertainty and potential repricing of Gold.
Weekly Chart:
Daily Analysis:
Swing -> Bullish.
Internal -> Bullish.
Analysis and Bias remains the same as Analysis dated 11 May 2025.
Since my last weekly analysis price has finally printed a bearish CHoCH.
This is the first indication, but not confirmation of bearish pullback phase initiation.
Price is now trading within an established internal range.
Price should now technically trade down to either discount of 50% internal EQ, or Daily demand zone before targeting weak internal high, priced at 3,500.200.
Note:
The Federal Reserve’s continued dovish stance, coupled with escalating geopolitical uncertainties, is expected to sustain elevated market volatility, influencing both intraday and broader trend developments.
Additionally, price action may be further shaped by U.S. policy decisions, including measures enacted under President Trump. Shifts in geopolitical strategy and economic policymaking could introduce further uncertainty, contributing to the ongoing repricing dynamics within the gold market.

Price has now printed a bearish CHoCH according to my analysis yesterday.
Price is now trading within an established internal range.
Intraday Expectation:
Price to trade down to either discount of internal 50% EQ, or H4 demand zone before targeting weak internal high priced at 3,500.200.
Note:
The Federal Reserve’s sustained dovish stance, coupled with ongoing geopolitical uncertainties, is likely to prolong heightened volatility in the gold market. Given this elevated risk environment, traders should exercise caution and recalibrate risk management strategies to navigate potential price fluctuations effectively.
Additionally, gold pricing remains sensitive to broader macroeconomic developments, including policy decisions under President Trump. Shifts in geopolitical strategy and economic directives could further amplify uncertainty, contributing to market repricing dynamics.

H4 Chart:
M15 Analysis:
-> Swing: Bullish.
-> Internal: Bearish.
In my analysis from 12 May 2025, I noted that price had yet to target the weak internal high, including on the H4 timeframe. This aligns with the ongoing corrective bearish pullback across higher timeframes, so a bearish internal Break of Structure (iBOS) was a likely outcome.
As anticipated, price targeted strong internal low, confirming a bearish iBOS.
While a bullish Change of Character (CHoCH) has printed, I am exercising discretion and not marking it as such, given the shallow nature of the pullback.
Additionally, another bullish CHoCH has printed, with price now trading within a defined internal range. I will continue monitoring this closely, particularly in relation to the depth of pullback.
Intraday Expectation:
Price to continue bullish, react at either premium of internal 50% EQ or M15 demand level before targeting weak internal low priced at 3,120.765
Note:
Gold remains highly volatile amid the Federal Reserve's continued dovish stance and persistent geopolitical uncertainties. Traders should implement robust risk management strategies and remain vigilant, as price swings may become more pronounced in this elevated volatility environment.
Additionally, President Trump’s recent tariff announcements are expected to further amplify market turbulence, potentially triggering sharp price fluctuations and whipsaws.

As mentioned in yesterday's analysis that I would continue to monitor price and depth of bearish pullback following previous bullish iBOS.
Price did not pull back with any significance, therefore, I will apply discretion and not mark the previous iBOS. I have however marked this in red.
Price continued bullish and subsequently printed a bearish iBOS to indicate, but not confirm bearish pullback phase initiation.
Price is now trading within an established internal range, however, I will continue to monitor depth of pullback.
Intraday Expectation:
Price to trade down to either discount of internal 50% EQ, or M15 supply zones before targeting weak internal high priced at 3,435.055
Note:
Gold remains highly volatile amid the Federal Reserve's continued dovish stance and persistent geopolitical uncertainties. Traders should implement robust risk management strategies and remain vigilant, as price swings may become more pronounced in this elevated volatility environment.

M15 Chart:
53000+ if we sustain above neckline!Banking stocks had been outperformers in 2023 but has been laggard until now in 2024! Things are about to turn around in coming week if we sustain above 48400 which is a "Neckline of an ascending triangle" formed on weekly charts of Bank Nifty. Indicators like RSI has already shown signs of a new rally by internal crossover last week. Target which will be activated would be 53000+ while stop loss at 47300.
Trendline and Channel Tutorial: Part 4All traders are different but I personally find it difficult to use standalone channels to consistently initiate profitable trades against. Not the least of the problem is that the channel continues to either rise or fall, making a secure place to hide a stop above/below more difficult.
But I find them particularly useful in three aspects. The first, and by far the most important, is that a channel allows one to quickly visualize the ebb and flow of supply and demand. As described earlier in this series, the relationship of price to the channel boundaries and the median line offer insight to the strength of the underlying trend (increasing or decreasing). The second is in the use of channels to rebalance existing positions against. I find tremendous value in trading around conjunctions with other support/resistance techniques. In other words, zones of support or resistance provided by the confluence of channels, horizonal patterns, fibonocci, momentum, and chart patterns result in more reliable entries than simply trading the width of the channels. In this piece we concentrate on finding suitable trading confluences.
Finding a confluence:
After the late March 2022 pivot (point A), the initial supply line A-C could be drawn along with a parallel initial projected oversold line from point B.
By early August the channel top (supply line) intersected price in the area around 4330. In the Wyckoff perspective, the downtrend represented the stride of supply and represented a significant chart reference.
In late May, price exceeded the initial projected oversold line, requiring a redraw from point D.
Between early Jan and mid July 2022 SPX declined from 4797 (A) to 3640 (D). The .618% retracement of the entire decline bisects around 4313.
From the low (1) on July 14, SPX rallied for 22 trading days. From July 26th an initial demand (uptrend line) could be projected. By the 29th an initial supply line (channel top) could be drawn. These two lines defined the minor channel.
By the middle of August, the minor channel intersected with the major channel in the area around 4332.
Price was also scraping across the top of the rising Bollinger band and the daily stochastic oscillator had been pinned in overbought since early August.
Levels:
4330 - Major channel top
4313 - .618% Fibonacci retracement
4336 - Upper channel (supply) line in the shorter perspective channel.
4332 - Bollinger Band top
Stochastic and other momentum indicators pinned in overbought.
As price moves into a confluence zone, I typically move to the chart of one lower degree and begin monitoring for a potential trade entry setup.
SPX Hourly:
In this perspective the channel becomes clearer. It is important to note that after August 8th, price never again approached the supply line and instead hugged the median line (inside the oval). This offered a clear indication of waning demand.
On August 11, I moved the supply line (red dashed channel top) lower, providing yet another layer of resistance.
Once price moves into a resistance confluence you may use your preferred method of trade entry and stop placement to initiate a trade.
Finally, most price action is only noise and there are only a few points on any chart where behavior becomes meaningful. Confluences, channel tops and trend lines represent one of instances. If no confluence exists, move your attention to a different chart. There is always a tradable confluence somewhere.

Bitcoin recovering from the support line of the rising channelBitcoin has been moving in a broad rising channel on the weekly chart that started since the April's peak. Recently, the price bounced on the support line of the rising channel. This pullback came in line with the primary bullish trend as the 20-week EMA is still moving over the 50-week EMA, which indicating that the bull market is still intact.
The appreciation can resume in the coming sessions as the market seems to be trading out of the oversold waters according to the Williams %R and the IMI. Yet, the support line of the ascending channel is safely driving the price northwards. Hence, the bullish move is intact unless the bears press the price below that support line and the most recent trough around $33,000 .
Currently, the price is testing the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level as well as the 20-week EMA at $46,762 where the price has dropped last week. Should the bull run continue, the door would open for the resistance level at $52,500 and then the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement levels at $55,273 . Additional gains from here would clear the way towards the tough resistance zone of $59,700 to all-time-highs in November 2021 at $69,000 .
On contract, if the bears take the upper hat again, the price may seek initially support at $40,000 and then the support line of the rising channel and the most recent low near $33,000 . Falling beneath $33,000, the spotlight will turn to the key support zone from $31,230 to $29,000 from January 2021.
Summarizing, the most recent trough in Bitcoin may live in the medium-term amid strengthening momentum signals, the upward trajectory could keep buying confidence intact, as long as the price holds above $33,000.
Gold is Testing an Important LevelGold after penetrated the resistance area around 1800 and rallied for few days, reversed below the longer-term Moving Average made a lower high around 1835. Currently, Gold is retesting the support area at 1800 forming small candles which indicates the strength of this area to push the price upward to 1835 and 1850. However, the oscillators started to provide negative signals make the bearish scenario, the violation the current support to the downside, is still hold, in this case Gold can be forced to test the upward trendline at 1753.

This is a single 'push' trade signal for CMTBTC.
I call this short-term not because of the amount of time it might take to hit the targets but because of the number of targets.
Remember that it takes TIME for these charts to develop.
Any trade can take days, weeks, and sometimes even months to fully develop.
Patience is absolutely necessary to be successful while trading crypto.
This is not financial advice.
Namaste.

It can take a few weeks before prices start to increase, so always keep in mind that patience is key.

Uptrend Channel on CMTHello Traders,
CMT at the daily chart seems to be inside the uptrend channel and testing the resistance of it on 1D timeframes.
Today's candlestick is called a dark cloud, which is a bearish sign especially by the fact that this movement is happening in a resistance zone.
Based on the daily chart, we can test the support of the channel one more time and still look at a bullish trend on the daily chart.
We going to pay attention to the green line when the price reaches that area The price will start to look bullish once again at this level but will be on a resistance zone on the daily chart.
.
UPDATE CMT\BTCCMT\BTC future strategies and trends
I hope we are surprised and the channels fail, if the channels are broken, more than 50% of the profit will be realized, otherwise it will follow the process predicted in the chart.
The purchase time announced in the previous charts is 133
Sales 159 - 177 - 191 respectively
The fall has also been seen on the chart.
