Potential Reversal in Gold After Completing Widening Formationhello guys!
The 4H Gold/USD chart exhibits a classic Broadening Formation (also known as a Megaphone Pattern), marked by higher highs and lower lows, reflecting increased volatility and market indecision. This pattern is identified with three key swing points on both the upper and lower trendlines:
Point 1 and Point 2 formed the initial boundaries of the pattern.
Point 3, recently touched, completes the structure by testing the upper boundary of the formation near $3,238, suggesting a potential bull trap, as illustrated in the schematic overlay.
just look at:
The price has sharply rallied to the top of the widening pattern, aligning with the third high, often a strong signal for reversal in this setup.
A rejection from this level is anticipated, supported by the bearish projection arrows targeting multiple demand zones.
Bearish Target Zones:
$3,180 – $3,160: Previous consolidation zone.
$3,140 – $3,120: Mid-pattern volume area with past price sensitivity.
$3,060 – $3,040: Major support zone with a strong volume node and previous reaction area.
Volume Profile Insight:
The volume profile shows significant activity in the $3,040 zone, reinforcing it as a major demand area where buyers might step in again.
__________________________
Summary:
This setup suggests a potential bearish correction after a strong upward move. If price action respects the pattern, traders may look for short opportunities from current levels with the outlined targets. Watch for confirmations such as reversal candlesticks or breakdowns of minor support levels.
Goldshort
GS raises gold target to $4,000, UBS to $3,500 Goldman Sachs and UBS have issued another round of bullish forecasts for gold, citing ongoing market uncertainty (i.e., tariffs).
Goldman analysts now expect gold to reach $3,700 per ounce by the end of 2025, with a potential rise to $4,000 by mid-2026. UBS holds a slightly more conservative view, projecting $3,500 by December 2025.
Technically, gold has pulled back from new all-time highs seen during the Asian session but potentially remains in a strong uptrend. With prices trading well above both the 50-day EMA and 200-day EMA, shallow retracements may find support, especially as tariff-related risks persist for at least the next 90 days.
What Goes Up Must Come Down – Gold on the Edge?After a parabolic run to new highs, gold is flashing signs of exhaustion.
📌 Price is hugging the upper Bollinger Band on the daily chart.
📌 RSI is in overbought territory (currently around 68.2) — similar to previous local tops.
📌 We're forming a steep, almost unsustainable channel — historically, these tend to break hard when they do.
If we see a break below $3,086 and lose that trendline, eyes shift to:
🔻 $2,932 — key support
🔻 $2,787 — prior breakout retest
🔻 $2,532 — long-term trendline support
Still bullish long-term, but short-term? A pullback might be healthy.

Golds about to CRASH next and here's why....Gold has been in a sustained uptrend for some time, but it appears we may now be approaching a significant resistance level. I believe the market is either set for a correction or will enter a broad consolidation range, and we are currently trading near the upper boundary of that range.
GOLD (XAU/USD) at ATH – Two Key Scenarios to WatchGold has reached ATH, and we're currently testing a critical resistance zone. Look at my previous published post, perfectly played out and we're just getting started.
📈 Scenario 1: If the 1H candle body breaks above resistance with a confirmed close, we’re likely to see a push toward the $3,300 level before a potential pullback toward $3100
📉 Scenario 2: If we fail to break resistance, a pullback toward the $3,100 zone is expected before a bounce back to $3,350.
Wait for a retest confirmation on the 1H candle body closure before taking any position.
Updates will be published!
Gold sell setup Why We Would Sell (Short) XAUUSD in This Setup:
Strong Resistance Zone:
Price is approaching a clear resistance level around 3,250, marked by multiple rejections in the past.
This zone acted as a ceiling for the bulls — each time price reached this level, it got pushed back down, showing strong selling pressure.
Double Top Formation (Potential Reversal Pattern):
The price formed a potential double top near 3,250.
This pattern often signals a shift from bullish to bearish momentum.
Bearish Rejection Wicks:
Candlesticks near the resistance show long upper wicks, indicating that buyers are getting weak and sellers are stepping in.
Lower High Forming:
After the second peak, price failed to make a new high, suggesting buying momentum is weakening.
The current price action is forming a lower high, which is a bearish signal.
Bearish Price Projection (Arrow Path):
The blue arrow suggests a retest of the resistance zone followed by a strong drop down to the support zone at 3,187.
This offers a good risk-to-reward ratio for a short trade setup.
Trade Parameters:
Stop Loss above resistance (around 3,250).
Take Profit around 3,187 (previous support).
This setup offers a clear invalidation point if the price breaks above resistance.
XAUUSD SHORTSolid market moves the past few days, I thought it was going to continue and it was safe because market started to stabilize again. However, as expected, one word from Trump and made the market spiraling again. Because of the hold on tariff announcement, we are now back to 3170 level again. Howver, for me, moves like these are always good opportunity for retracement. Opening at 3170// first TP at my prev opening then final at 3000 so we can still be in profit and croos out the previous one. setting a long SL on this one just to be sure at 3270. Let's see how this rolls

XAUUSD ShortWhat a Monday that was! Price broke way below 3000 and even hit 2954 level. It was a little shaky so I opt to not put in my positions, even if my predictions were correct, I chose to play safe. Today, price is still a little unstable but placing a position so to catch some pips if ever. Iv placed an SL just for Tradingview purposes, here's my position info: Open at 3014// SL 3164//TP 2964. As usual we decide as we go, but let's see how this trade rolls :)

XAUUSD SHORTXAUUSD short again, 9yr high for Gold and still holding on to my shorts. another day, another entry. Setting my position at 3138 // TP 3000 SL 3238
A lil discouraged with the current rallies, however, this is what trading is like, you take your L's, gather your emotion, recalculate and execute again(when you're less emotional). Sticking to my Short positions because I believe that this will reverse, it may take a while but im willing to wait. Setting my TP to my previous target to cover previous losses and SL a lil bit further to secure my positions. This isnt a trading or financial advice but my personal trading plan. Let's see how this trade rolls.

Gold --> Consolidation before the news. Increase trendOANDA:XAUUSD entering a strong growth phase after a false breakout from support as part of the correction process. The previous high at 3127 is now acting as a robust support for buyers. Strong news is about to be released...
Fundamentally, the market is shifting towards defensive assets amid speculation from the WSJ that Trump is considering imposing global tariffs of up to 20% on most of the United States' trading partners while rejecting plans to scale back tariffs. This could create inflationary pressure and stagnation, weakening the dollar and bond yields, thus supporting gold prices.
Central banks and investors continue to build positions in gold, but there may be some adjustments before the announcement of tariffs and the release of U.S. economic data. Theoretically, any reaction to U.S. data is likely to be short-lived, as the main event risk on the so-called 'Liberation Day' is Trump's major tariff revelation.
The strong resistance level is at 3135. A breakout and consolidation above this level would foster continued growth. However, given the upcoming news, gold may test the area of interest and liquidity between 3025-3020 before further advancing.
