THE KOG REPORT - UpdateEnd of day update from us here at KOG:
Following on from the initial KOG Report we've not done too badly managing to plot the path for the move and jump on board with it over the week. Yesterday we wanted that pullback into the 2685-90 region to continue with the bias and the bias levels which didn't hit exactly but the move continued and we've completed all of our targets for the week.
Now, again we're a bit high, so if you're looking for trades the only option is to wait for the pull back, or for those on the boxes and scalping, look for a reversal from above, if not broken, support has flipped 2710!
For us, a great week on the gold and the rest of the markets, we'll be taking it easy tomorrow.
KOG’s Bias for the week:
Bullish above 2650 with targets above 2700✅, 2706✅ and above that 2716✅
Bearish on break of 2650 with targets below 2640 and below that 2635
RED BOXES:
Break above 2690 for 2700✅, 2703✅, 2706✅, 2710✅ and 2724✅ in extension of the move

GOLD 1H CHART ROUTE MAP UPDATEHey Everyone,
This is an update on our 1H CHART route map shared on Sunday. This chart has been playing gout perfectly.
We started the week with the retracement range test followed with the bounce into our bullish target 2691. EMA5 cross and locked above 2691 opening 2706 and 2719. This was hit perfectly today completing this range.
We are now looking for ema5 lock above 2719 to open the range above for a continuation or failure to lock above will follow with a rejection here.
We will keep the above in mind when taking buys from dips. Our updated levels and weighted levels will allow us to track the movement down and then catch bounces up.
We will continue to buy dips using our support levels taking 30 to 40 pips. As stated before each of our level structures give 20 to 40 pip bounces, which is enough for a nice entry and exit. If you back test the levels we shared every week for the past 24 months, you can see how effectively they were used to trade with or against short/mid term swings and trends.

EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 2691 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGET

EUR/USD : Approaching Critical Demand Zones! (READ THE CAPTION)By reviewing the #EURUSD chart in the three-day timeframe, we can see that the price has currently reached a very important demand zone, and the probability of a price reversal from this level is high! However, note that I personally have another scenario in mind, which is that after an initial short-term rise in the current area, the price will decline again to the very important demand zone of 1.005 to 1.007 , and then, with a suitable trigger in this area, we can look for an attractive BUY position !
All key levels and important zones have been marked on the chart! If you have any questions, be sure to ask, and I will try to respond as soon as possible!

Will gold fluctuate significantly today?
In the early Asian session on Wednesday (January 15), spot gold fluctuated slightly and is currently trading at $2,683 per ounce. Gold prices rebounded slightly on Tuesday, closing at $2,677.22 per ounce, after U.S. inflation data was slightly lower than expected, giving investors a faint hope that the Federal Reserve will continue to lower interest rates in 2025, and the U.S. dollar fell in response. The strengthening of the U.S. dollar and rising U.S. Treasury yields may still be unfavorable factors for gold in the first half of this year, but the demand for gold as a diversified investment tool will be enough to outweigh these unfavorable factors. On Tuesday, the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield continued to rise, once refreshing a more than 14-month high of 4.820%. This yield is regarded as a risk-free yield, the opportunity cost of holding gold in the market, and the rise in this yield will reduce the attractiveness of gold. In addition, concerns about Trump's policy uncertainty also provide support for gold prices, but U.S. Treasury yields continue to climb, which makes gold bulls cautious. Investors are currently waiting for the Consumer Price Index (CPI) on Wednesday to analyze the Fed's policy path.
U.S. President-elect Trump will return to the White House on January 20. He has previously vowed to impose additional trade tariffs. Analysts expect this will trigger a trade war and reignite inflation. President-elect Trump said on Tuesday that he would set up a new department called the External Revenue Service, "to collect tariffs, import duties and all taxes from foreign countries." Trump is preparing to impose new import tariffs before taking office next week. In terms of geopolitical situation, negotiators are trying to agree on the final details of the Gaza ceasefire after marathon talks in Qatar, with mediators and both warring parties saying they are closer than ever to reaching an agreement. However, after more than eight hours of talks, a senior Hamas official told Reuters reporters late on Tuesday that the group is still waiting for Israel to submit a map for its withdrawal from Gaza. U.S. President Biden attended the talks together with envoys of President-elect Trump. Investors need to pay attention to relevant news. In addition, New York Fed President Williams and Chicago Fed President Goolsburn will deliver speeches on the trading day, which investors need to pay close attention to. In addition, pay attention to the release of the Beige Book of Economic Conditions by the Federal Reserve.
Gold market trend analysis:
Gold technical analysis: The gold range has contracted and fluctuated, the daily physical K-line is small, and the short-term space has become passivated. If the space cannot be walked out, it will fall into a narrow range of contraction and saw-saw oscillation, and it is not strong or weak. The daily structure enters the triangle range. Although the low point is upward, forming a small step upward, the resistance at the upper track has not been effectively broken through, and there is no upward space for the time being. In the short term, it will continue to fluctuate back and forth within the range. If the gold rebound and rise is not sustained, then gold will continue to be a volatile market. Gold has poor sustainability recently. Don't chase the rise easily. Continue to short gold at a rebound high.
The gold 1-hour moving average is about to enter a dead cross downward. If the gold 1-hour moving average forms a dead cross downward, then the gold downside space will be further opened. The market is changing rapidly. Gold is now a volatile market. Gold rebounds high and continues to short. On the whole, the professional and experienced gold analyst team recommends shorting on rebounds as the main strategy for short-term gold operations today, and long on pullbacks as the auxiliary strategy. The short-term focus on the upper side is the 2676-2680 resistance line, and the short-term focus on the lower side is the 2645-2650 support line.
Gold operation strategy:
1. Go long on gold when it falls back to the 2660-65 line, stop loss at 2655, target at 2675-80 line, and look at 2690 line if it breaks;
2. Go short on the 2690 line when gold rebounds for the first time, and cover short on the 2704 line when it rebounds, stop loss at 2711, and target at 2665-70 line;
Oil Short 4HI’m excited to share my next setup for Oil. This trading idea is based on correction levels.
The main idea area is between 80.35 and 80.25. However, since oil tends to react to the 50 levels, I prefer to focus on the 80.5 level for my entry.
For the 4-hour entry, I am waiting for the formation of an M pattern with a lower peak at the second base. I’ll be looking to take scalp sell at the levels of 80.25, 80.35, and 80.5 for the first touches. after that, I'm going to wait for the confirmation to take the main Sell.
Please note that, typically, upon the first collision, we could experience either an impulse or a rejection entry. At the second base, we should wait for a consolidation area to confirm our entry. For a better understanding of this setup, please refer to my previous oil chart.
TP1: 79.9
TP2: 79.2
TP3: 77.4
SL: 81.35

Analysis of gold review in simple languageHello guys
We came with gold analysis.
We have two scenarios:
1_ According to the upward trend, let the price reach the resistance range and maintain the range from there to open a sell transaction.
2- Let the price reach the support range and open the purchase transaction while maintaining the range.
In our opinion, the first scenario is more tolerant.

SPY/QQQ Plan Your Trade For 1-16 : Momentum Rally PatternToday's pattern suggests the markets will continue a rally phase - trending on the momentum from yesterday. It is likely the SPY/QQQ will attempt to rally and break away from the downward-sloping price channel I show on my charts.
Remember, my broader cycle pattern research suggests the SPY/QQQ will attempt to rally into Jan 20-23, then peak and roll downward/sideways into a Feb 9-10 V-Bottom pattern.
As I highlight in this video, the markets appear to be moving into a consolidation phase within the current downward-sloping price channel. I'm watching to see if the new Trump administration brings a BUMP (like last time) that breaks the US markets away from this consolidation trend.
Remember, the data on the US economy and earnings continues to be strong. A Trump-Bump will likely happen again, pushing the US markets into even greater dominance as the 900-lb Gorilla compared to other global economies.
However, until global central banks can move their economies to become more independent of US economic demand and imports, the process of working through the excesses of the COVID/Spending-spree administration (Biden) will continue as long as wealth in the US goes unchallenged (by some crisis or economic event).
So, again, expect the 900lb Gorilla to continue to dominate while there is no major crisis event in the future.
Gold and Silver should rally today on a RALLY pattern as well.
I believe BTCUSD is struggling to find support and may move downward over the next 10+ days.
We'll see what happens.
Get some.

Gold Price Update: Potential Bullish ContinuationGold prices are showing signs of a potential bullish continuation. The price has retraced to the 0.5 Fibonacci level at 2,677.26 USD after a strong upward move and appears to be stabilizing around this support.
The current consolidation above 2,677.26 USD suggests the possibility of another upward push toward the 1.0 Fibonacci level at 2,697.98 USD, with further resistance levels at 2,718.71 USD and 2,729.08 USD. However, if the price fails to hold above 2,677.26 USD, the next support level to watch is 2,666.89 USD.
Key Levels:
Immediate Resistance: 2,697.98 USD (1.0 Fibonacci level)
Support Zone: 2,677.26 USD (0.5 Fibonacci level) and 2,666.89 USD (0.25 Fibonacci level)
Potential Targets: 2,729.08 USD (1.75 Fibonacci level)
This setup indicates a bullish outlook if key support levels hold. Should monitor price action closely for confirmation of the next move.
GOLD approaching key short-term resistance. What's next?Gold is moving in the upwards direction, despite the higher US CPI reading, which benefits the US dollar. However, there is a possibility that the higher inflation reading was already priced in and maybe this could lead to slower upside pace for the US dollar. Let's dig in...

XAGUSD Silver BEARISH - Head & Shoulders and Wedge BreakSilver has two patterns on the Daily TF that indicate a bearish direction ahead.
There is a complete Head & Shoulders pattern and also a Rising Wedge pattern that has been broke. Silver (XAGUSD) has recently had a bullish retracement to re-test both patterns and should start falling soon.
Short-Term TP = $28
Long-Term TP (from Head & Shoulders) = $24.60
Long-Term TP (from Wedge) = $20.70
I expect the short-term TP to be hit at least. The longer-term TP's may or may not be reached. What will probably happen is that the Head & Shoulders target will be reached and Silver will hold up around the $25 level.
NOTE : I personally love Silver and think it's a great long-term investment. I also consider it a highly manipulated market. I am bearish now based solely on the chart, but keep in mind that anything can happen with Silver!
GOLD at Key Resistance Zone – Potential Bearish CorrectionGOLD is at a significant resistance zone, marked by historical price rejections and heightened interest from sellers in the past. If the price confirms a rejection from this resistance level, I anticipate a short-term bearish move toward the 2,692.88 level, which represents a logical target within the current market structure. This setup aligns with the expectation of a correction after a sharp rally into resistance.
Traders should monitor this zone closely for rejection signals, such as bearish candlestick formations or increased selling pressure, to confirm the likelihood of a pullback.
Ride the Silver Surge: A Strategic Long-Term Trade Opportunity! 🚀 Silver: Bullish Setup Targeting $34.86 🚀
Silver presents a strong buy opportunity with bullish momentum building both technically and fundamentally. Here’s the updated setup:
Key Levels
Entry: $30.60
🎯TP1: $32.10
🎯TP2: $34.86
🛑 Stop Loss: $28.54
Why This Trade Looks Promising
1️⃣ Trendline Support: The price has rebounded strongly off a key ascending trendline, signaling continued bullish momentum.
2️⃣ Industrial Demand: Long-term demand for Silver is fueled by clean energy initiatives, including solar panels and EV production.
3️⃣ Bullish RSI: The RSI is trending upward, confirming growing buyer strength and potential for further price gains.
4️⃣ Long-Term Setup: This trade requires patience and is more suitable for traders with larger accounts, as the stop-loss is set wider to accommodate market fluctuations.
Market Context:
Silver remains fundamentally supported by rising industrial demand, inflation hedging, and the prospect of a weaker US Dollar in the months ahead. This longer-term setup aligns with both technical and macroeconomic trends, offering significant upside potential.
⚠️ Note: Please ensure this trade aligns with your account size and risk tolerance. For smaller accounts, a tighter stop-loss or different setup might be more appropriate.
GOLD - Potential Bullish Break & Retest SetupGold is currently trading above the $2,700 level, which previously acted as resistance and could now serve as support. If the price pulls back and buyers defend this level, it could confirm bullish momentum, leading to a continuation toward the next target at $2,712. However, failure to hold above the zone may invalidate this setup and signal potential bearish pressure.
This scenario aligns with the broader ascending channel structure, suggesting the potential for further upside if key support holds.
USOIL Will Fall! Sell!
Please, check our technical outlook for USOIL.
Time Frame: 1D
Current Trend: Bearish
Sentiment: Overbought (based on 7-period RSI)
Forecast: Bearish
The market is on a crucial zone of supply 79.103.
The above-mentioned technicals clearly indicate the dominance of sellers on the market. I recommend shorting the instrument, aiming at 74.465 level.
P.S
Please, note that an oversold/overbought condition can last for a long time, and therefore being oversold/overbought doesn't mean a price rally will come soon, or at all.

8 Tips to Optimize Your Tradingview for Clarity & PerformanceIn this video I share 8 ways to optimize your Tradingview for improve your performance.
Most people focus on strategy, but that is only a piece of successful trading. What I would argue is even more important....is your ability to execute.
Better execution is a result of - repetition, clarity, understanding
The things in this video will help you with clarity.
People make the comparison to trading and gambling all the time, for good reason.
But let me ask you this...
Have you ever taken a moment to look at your tradingview workspace and see how it's like walking through a virtual casino?
Think about it...
You have thousands of assets to choose from (machines & tables)
You have people with their ideas and chatter (forums, ideas, chats)
You also have sounds and stimulation everywhere (notifications, alarms)
This is not bad! But it's something to be mindful of as you design your work environment for execution.
We want to improve clarity, and simplicity. We want to eliminate as much noise as possible to improve your ability to focus on the task at hand, which is to execute your strategy.
Here are 8 tips to improve your performance:
(yes some of these are generic but they make a huge difference)
Turn off the Gain%, Change, Vol, and Last on your asset sidebar
On the same side bar, drag the news section down to the bottom so it's not visible anymore
Change the color of your candles to soft more soothing colors ( google search calming colors )
Turn off notifications so you don't get hit with other trader's ideas while you're trading
Use anchor text notes to put your plan for each asset right on the chart so you don't deviate
Remove news event from the bottom of your charts, reduces clutter (personal preference)
Create templates for each step in your analysis process
I realize now that there were only 7 not 8, but I recorded the video so it's too late to go back now lol.
I hope this helps you on your journey!
I'd love to know what helps you with clarity, and getting in flow state while you trade.

THE KOG REPORTTHE KOG REPORT
In last week’s KOG Report we said for the first half of the week we will be looking for the price to attempt the low-level support 2625-30 to complete the move from the week before which we achieved. We wanted this level to give us the bounce upside for the long, which was almost to the pip, hitting our target upside for another short completing the bearish targets.
We then updated traders with the long trade before NFP which we traded level to level until we released the NFP KOG Report on Friday. For this report we gave the levels of interest and our plan, and although we didn’t manage to capture the exact level for the long, some traders managed to get in on the move hitting the target on the nose. It’s at that red box level we then shorted again to close the week.
What a week in Camelot, not only a point to point moves across the week on Gold but we completed a whopping 22 targets across the other pairs we trade and analyse.
Well done to the community and traders.
So, what can we expect in the week ahead?
For this week we have the key levels above 2700 and above that 2710, which could be possible targets for bulls to attempt during the course of the week. Below, we have the key levels of 2665 and the key level 2650-55 which will be this week’s bullish above bias level. Ideally, on open we want to see a brief test of that high, if rejected we would like to see this come back down to complete the move downside from Fridays’ NFP. It’s these lower levels that need to be monitored, the 2665 region which is where if we want to go up, we don’t want to see a break below and below that, then the extension of the move into the 2645-50 region.
We’re a little too high to attempt the long and we’re also holding protected shorts from above, so a progressive move down would suit before then finding a base to attempt that long unless Excalibur says otherwise.
At present, we can not get to carried away with the long-term direction, a visit into 2700 with a strong break above 2720 is needed for this to continue the move upside, while a break below the 2640-45 region is needed for this to confirm the move further downside. It’s still possible we continue this range until a further breakout so for that reason we’ll play it intra-day for now following our trusted algo and additional tools we have in place.
KOG’s Bias for the week:
Bullish above 2650 with targets above 2700, 2706 and above that 2716
Bearish on break of 2650 with targets below 2640 and below that 2635
RED BOXES:
Break above 2690 for 2700, 2703, 2706, 2710 and 2724 in extension of the move
Break below 2680 for 2667, 2665, 2655 and 2640 in extension of the move

GOLD - XAUUSDWe will look at the logarithmic chart of gold starting from 1975.
We see the two cycles. I drew a line along the tops of these peak values and made a parallel one, thereby forming an upward trend channel.
If we talk about the Elliott Waves, then we'd the peak of the third wave in 2011 - the strongest wave and it's during the 2007-2008 crisis.
Now we're on the cusp of a real breakthrough and amid of the potential instability in the world, gold will be a protective asset. There are many fundamental factors for its growth.
On the other hand, if we talk about local movement, then we've broken through the resistance of triangle below and made the first wave up, after which there should be a correction - either in a small triangle or to the support line of the global channel, and after that, there'll be the strongest impulse of the third wave which will break 1900+.
In my analysis, I say that it's the global 5th uptrend wave and we'll see some updating of new highs over the next few years.
Best Regards EXCAVO.
