GOLD: Day 3 breakout traders long up high, NFP day!Hello everyone and welcome back to my channel, please don't forget to support my hard work, and feel free to share your observations if you have any, sharing is the key of improvement! Gold, since the beginning of the week is creeping breaking higher, potentially trapping volume up high for a great, amazing sell off by the end of the day, completing the weekly pump and dump scenario. To understand better the logic behind this forecast, let's analyse the week and remember two very important things! 1. I'm not trying to predict the market, my observation is not regarding any direction move, but I'm underlining the SETUP I'm looking for, more probable and profitable for the day. 2. I would never take any trade before NFP release! Let's see deeply the week: Monday, opening range of the week, established the high low of week, placing a peak formation high and a peak formation low. Tuesday, eventually broke higher and dumped back down into Monday's high, consolidating just above that level, typical of trend trade template. Wednesday a long setup went through the high of week (HOW) and as well broke higher the previous HOW, the trend trade setup was identified as a dump and pump in the day itself. The day closed back inside the daily range, and a peak formation high was in place. Thursday, the market pumped again into the HOW, breaking higher and triggering for the third time breakout traders long in the market, closing the day out of balance (out of the previous weekly boundary). Today, Friday, the market retested again the HOW, essentially is still in breakout and still trending higher, but this kind of behaviour, where the price action is mostly "creepy" and not really strong trending, is very similar to past scenarios already happened where NFP cleaned all the traders long which they didn't take profit or still holding hoping for more profit. How can you take advantage of this? I want to see the market consolidating up high till the NFP release at 8:30am NYT, looking for a sell high opportunity. If not, because the market can be really volatile during this day, after the news I can be looking for a short continuation. What about a long thesis? Can the market keep going higher? The answer is, absolutely yes, the market can explode in the long direction, forecasting is just the same as gambling. So, the real question is, which setup do you have and which setup are you hunting!? In the next update, I will share the potential 2 setups for the day Gianni

XAUUSD - The NFP indicator will determine the direction of gold!Gold is above the EMA200 and EMA50 in the 4-hour timeframe and is in its ascending channel. In case of weakness in the data of the employment market and increase in the unemployment rate, you can look for opportunities to buy gold. A lower-than-expected unemployment rate release and a strong NFP headline will lead to a breakout of the bullish and bearish channel in gold. While most major economies are expected to pursue expansionary monetary policies this year, the pace of these measures will likely slow. According to Bloomberg’s forecast, the overall interest rate index in advanced economies is projected to decrease by only 72 basis points in 2025, which is lower than the rate of decline in 2024. Donald Trump, with his electoral promises and economic policies, has become a source of concern for central banks worldwide.If Trump enforces his threats to impose trade tariffs, these policies could harm economic growth and, in the case of retaliatory measures, drive up consumer prices. Analysts at Bank of America (BofA) highlighted the “complex” impacts of Trump’s proposed tariffs on metal prices in a recent note. The proposed 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada—two of the main suppliers of metals to the U.S.—are expected to have both direct and indirect effects on the market. The bank identified two main concerns. First, the potential negative impact on global growth and the fundamentals of the metals market, particularly if the tariffs escalate into a full-blown trade war. However, BofA predicts that a more “measured approach to trade barriers is likely to prevail,” which would mitigate the overall damage. Second, regional metal prices will need to adjust to the potential tariffs. Bank of America warned that tariffs could strengthen the dollar, increase inflation, and lead to higher interest rates—all of which could pose challenges for the U.S. economy. Nevertheless, they concluded that metal prices are likely to stabilize after the initial volatility subsides, especially if the tariffs are targeted and investments in energy transition continue. Jerome Powell, the Federal Reserve Chair, downplayed expectations of continued monetary easing in 2025 during his December 18, 2024, press conference. Cleveland Fed President Loretta Mester’s dissenting vote against a rate cut was surprising, but the major shock to markets came from the Fed members’ projections (dot plot). The Fed members forecast only two rate cuts for 2025, signaling that the monetary easing cycle, which began in September 2024, will slow significantly in the coming year. Powell also admitted that inflation forecasts for the end of the year had been overly optimistic, suggesting that inflation is not yet fully under control. The Fed is increasingly concerned about Trump’s policies, as tools like tariffs could raise import prices and, subsequently, inflation. Forecasts for Friday’s NFP data: • Average estimate: 165K • Lowest estimate: 120K • Highest estimate: 190K The importance of the labor market for monetary policy has slightly diminished following Powell’s December 18 press conference. This indicates that the Fed has some confidence in easing price pressures stemming from the labor market. However, recent data suggests that the labor market has not fully cooled. The upcoming NFP report is expected to show a 160,000 increase in nonfarm payrolls, while the unemployment rate and hourly wage growth are likely to remain steady at 4.2% and 4%, respectively. If these expectations are unmet, especially with job growth below 50,000, the likelihood of a Fed rate cut in Q1 2025 will increase. Currently, markets anticipate a 25-basis-point rate cut by June 2025, but this move could occur sooner if labor market data remains weak.

World gold prices increased despite the high USD.Gold prices hit a near four-week high on safe-haven demand amid financial market turmoil. Investors sought safety amid concerns about Britain's finances and President-elect Donald Trump's economic policies. In Britain, concerns about the budget deficit sent the pound to its lowest in more than a year against the dollar, with 10-year government bond yields rising to 4.92% and the FTSE 250 index falling for a third straight day, raising concerns about the risk of global financial contagion. Meanwhile, market attention turns to Friday's US nonfarm payrolls report, which is expected to show the number of new jobs in December fell to 160,000, compared with 227,000 in November. 🔥 XAUUSD SELL 2677 2679🔥 💵 TP1: 2665 💵 TP2: 2655 💵 TP3: OPEN 🚫 SL: 2687

NFP focus, GOLD is reaching initial bullish conditionsOn Asian markets on Friday (January 10), OANDA:XAUUSD Spot delivery maintains the intraday recovery trend and gold price is currently at about 2,672 USD/ounce, a range of about more than 1 dollar during the day as of the time of writing. Market participants turned their attention to the US nonfarm payrolls report. Today (Friday), the United States will release the closely watched non-farm payrolls report, which is expected to cause a big move in the gold market. Authoritative surveys show nonfarm payrolls in the United States would have increased by 160,000 last December, following a whopping 227,000 increase in November. US unemployment rate expected to fall maintained at 4.2% in December. The survey found that average hourly wages in the United States are expected to increase 0.3% month-over-month in December, following a 0.4% increase in November. Annual wage growth is likely maintained at 4%. Better-than-expected US nonfarm payrolls data is seen as positive for the dollar and vice versa. And of course, this greatly impacts the gold price trend. From a technical perspective, OANDA:XAUUSD is heading for the 4th consecutive day of increase but the real uptrend has not yet been clearly formed. However, the daily chart of gold prices has also achieved the initial technical conditions for a possible increase in price with price activity above EMA21, POC Volume Profile and the 0.50% Fibonacci retracement level. Currently, these indicators are becoming the closest support. An important factor for the uptrend to form is the level of 2,693USD, which is considered a technical confirmation point for a newly formed uptrend. Once it is broken above and gold sustains activity above this level, the next target is around $2,730 in the short term. The relative strength index RSI has also risen above 50. However, the slope is not large but it is still considered a positive signal for gold prices in the near future. During the day, gold had initial bullish technical conditions and notable levels are listed below.

GOLD → False Breakout. Can Buyers Recover?Hello, dear friends! Ben here! Gold has made a false breakout at $2,637 and is now searching for strong support. The current situation is highly complex, both fundamentally and technically. Fundamentally, the situation remains challenging. Gold's weakness is influenced by the Fed's hawkish stance and the strength of the US Dollar. However, upward pressure on gold persists due to other factors, including the escalation of conflicts in Eastern Europe and the Middle East, Trump’s protectionist policies targeting Europe and Asia, and rising geopolitical risks worldwide. Technically, after the false breakout at $2,637 (previously a resistance level), the price is now heading toward a new testing zone around $2,622. Below that, the ascending channel support at $2,606 could act as the lower boundary where buyers may start an aggressive play. Key Support Levels: $2,622, $2,606 Key Resistance Levels: $2,637, $2,647, $2,665 Overall, I lean toward a medium-term bearish trend. However, the local situation remains tense and complicated. If the bulls manage to hold their ground within the ascending channel, gold may continue its upward move. But! If buyers fail to maintain their position within the channel, a correction could extend the downward momentum further, leading to deeper declines. Best regards, Bentradegold!

Today analysis for Nasdaq, Oil, and GoldNasdaq The Nasdaq closed flat due to the U.S. stock market holiday and early futures market closure. The MACD has fallen below the zero line on the daily chart, indicating continued selling pressure. Today's non-farm payroll data will be a key event, as it may determine whether the Nasdaq breaks below the 60-day moving average and continues its decline. On the 240-minute chart, both the MACD and Signal lines remain below the zero line, indicating a persistent bearish trend. This suggests a possibility of further sharp declines, potentially expanding the divergence. Ahead of the data release, the pre-market is likely to remain range-bound. Focus on range-trading strategies but manage risks carefully as the non-farm payroll data approaches. Oil Oil closed higher, finding support near the 240-day moving average on the daily chart. After facing initial resistance around the $75 level, oil found support at the 240-day moving average, indicating a strong chance of another attempt to break above $75. Additionally, support near the 10-day moving average suggests the potential for another upward wave. On the 240-minute chart, a buying attempt is evident as the MACD moves closer to the Signal line. The chart resembles a head-and-shoulders pattern, where the neckline provides support, and the price may be attempting to form the right shoulder. Whether oil will surge beyond $75 remains uncertain, as the divergence in the MACD on the 240-minute chart and potential for time correction on the daily chart suggest caution. Avoid chasing prices at the highs; instead, confirm a breakout before taking action. Overall, buying on dips is the preferred strategy. Gold Yesterday, gold closed higher, continuing its upward trend on the daily chart. The MACD is approaching the zero line, and today's non-farm payroll data will determine whether gold moves above the zero line to resume a bullish trend or sharply reverses, resulting in a MACD dead cross and a bearish trend. On the 240-minute chart, the bullish momentum remains strong, but upcoming events such as today's data and next week's CPI report could create a turning point. Given the potential for trend changes, it’s better to react to established trends. While the short-term trend is strong, range-bound movement in the pre-market is possible, so trade accordingly. Buying on dips remains a favorable approach. As we approach the end of the trading week on Friday, heightened volatility is expected due to the non-farm payroll data. Manage risks carefully, and may you have a successful trading day! ■Trading Strategies for Today Nasdaq - Range-bound Market -Buy Levels: 21,190 / 21,120 / 21,065 / 20,990 / 20,945 -Sell Levels: 21,315 / 21,360 / 21,410 / 21,500 Oil - Bullish Market -Buy Levels: 73.90 / 73.50 / 73.00 -Sell Levels: 74.80 / 75.20 / 75.60 / 76.40 Gold - Range-bound Market -Buy Levels: 2,685 / 2,681 / 2,676 / 2,670 / 2,665 / 2,661 -Sell Levels: 2,700 / 2,705 / 2,710 / 2,716 These strategies are applicable only during pre-market hours.

BITCOIN BTC Machine Learning Approximation Strategy applied GOLDHey everyone. Here's a new trade idea potentially for Gold. I created a a new trading strategy script for Bitcoin, and I tuned the parameters for Gold. The original script is called the "BITCOIN BTC Machine Learning Approximation Strategy by NHBPROD." It implements a simplified Machine learning technique and then produces and output that can be used to buy and sell. The script is only for long trading. I'll attach a link: ( ) to the original strategy script. This is the strategy script, but I also have the indicator script which can be used to automate buy and sell signals directly to your phone, email, or your bot. Anyway, applying the idea to Gold, and tuning the parameters gives me a pretty good backtest, AND it shows that Gold has just entered a buy zone on the daily chart. On average according to the performance, the average trade profit is roughly 2%, so this could be a great time to buy Gold and expect a 2% gain.

GOLD → Resistance retest before falling FX:XAUUSD is consolidating and deliberately approaching the resistance 2667. The upward market structure is focused on a breakout of the resistance. But the other question is whether the breakout will happen, because the sticks in the form of economic data have been in the wheels for a long time now Based on the market behavior, we can assume that before the possible fall there may be a liquidity grab and a retest of the key resistance, as buyers became more cautious after the discouraging data on inflation in China and hawkish Fed meeting minutes. To be honest, gold's current rise is not clear to me as there is no reason for it except for Trump's tariff plans towards multiple countries. Fundamental data is negative, there is no new news from hot spots, the dollar is rising, global inflation is rising, the Fed has become hawkish, there are so many nuances providing resistance to the metal. Resistance levels: 2667, 2675 Support levels: ascending line, 2656 Technically the structure is bullish and in the short term I am waiting for an attempt to break the resistance 2667. In this case a retest of the zones of interest 2675, channel resistance or 2692 from which a correction can be formed is possible. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD ROUTE MAP UPDATEHey Everyone, Another Piptastic day on the charts today with our plans to buy dips playing out, as planned. After completing our 2661 bullish target yesterday, we stated that we now had ema5 cross and lock above 2661 opening 2681. - This gave us a nice run of over 100 pips already and the gap still remains open. Any rejections will be opportunities for us to buy dips, allowing us to safely catch pips rather than chasing targets from the top. 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. BULLISH TARGET 2661 - DONE EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 2661 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGET 2681 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 2681 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGET 2711 BEARISH TARGETS 2633 - DONE EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK BELOW 2633 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BEARISH TARGET 2611 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK BELOW 2611 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BEARISH TARGET 2593 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK BELOW 2593 WILL OPEN THE SWING RANGE SWING RANGE 2570 - 2551 As always, we will keep you all updated with regular updates throughout the week and how we manage the active ideas and setups.

Gold testing key resistance hereGold has been able to ignore the US dollar strength and rising bond yields until now. But since topping out in October, it has created a few lower highs, suggesting that the trend is no longer bullish as it was in the early parts of last year. The precious metal is now testing a bearish trend line derived from connecting the prior two highs. This trend line happens to cut through a key resistance zone between 2675 to 2685. What's more, the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level against the December high comes in around this area, at 2671. All this makes it an ideal area for the sellers to potentially step in. Can we see a potential drop here? Or will the bulls prevail despite all these technical hurdles? By Fawad Razaqzada, market analyst with FOREX.com
