SUPPORT AND RESISTANCE / PRICE ACTIONIn this analysis we are focusing on M30 time frame for XAUUSD. Here I'm using support/resistance and price action strategy. As we know that market trend was bullish and gold creates a new all time high. But now price is in consolidation range. Today I'm looking both opportunity bullish or bearish, If price break above the consolidation area than we look for buy but after strong confirmation. In other case If market price break below the consolidation area and close the candle below this area then we look for sell but first we take confirmation then we go for sell because we know that the trend was bullish and we also see the volume and momentum or RSI divergence. Let's delve deeper into these levels and potential outcomes.
Always use stoploss for your trade.
#GOLD M30 Technical Analyze Expected Move.
Liquidity
Bitcoin bearish scenario for the weekI made this analysis yesterday. In this case, we also expect a move closer to $62k, so based on this analysis, we have time to analyze until Tuesday to decide which way to go. The bears case explains the price action as the following. We broke out of last week’s consolidation with a manipulative move over the weekend/late Friday, so we trapped the longs by let the believing in higher prices by hold the price at the GETTEX:64K level. The EMA will not hold in this case and we go back to the lows of August 6 at around $51,000.
Bitcoin bullish case for the weekI did this analysis yesterday. The case is the following. I expected this drop to the current levels of $62,000 to lead to a meanreversion to the EMA50 on the 4-hour time frame. In the bullish case, we hold the EMA50 and see higher prices. The targets for upside continuation would be $66k and $69k for this week.
XAU/USD Strategy: Pattern Recognition and Trade ExecutionComprehensive Market Breakdown for XAU/USD (Gold Spot) Based on Multi-Time Frame Analysis
Overview:
The analysis of XAU/USD across multiple time frames (15-minute, 30-minute, 1-hour, and 4-hour) indicates a complex market structure with both bullish and bearish signals. This detailed breakdown will provide insights into the current market conditions, key patterns to watch, potential trading strategies, and risk management considerations.
1. 15-Minute Time Frame: Symmetrical Triangle Pattern
Pattern Details:
Symmetrical Triangle: This pattern is characterized by converging trend lines connecting lower highs and higher lows, indicating indecision in the market.
Apex Proximity: The price is nearing the apex of the triangle, suggesting a potential breakout is imminent.
Implications:
Neutral Bias: The symmetrical triangle does not inherently suggest a bullish or bearish bias but indicates a potential breakout in either direction depending on market sentiment.
Volume Confirmation: A breakout with a significant surge in volume will confirm the direction of the move.
Trading Strategy:
Bullish Breakout: If the price breaks above the upper trendline with strong volume, consider entering long positions targeting previous resistance levels.
Bearish Breakout: Conversely, if the price breaks below the lower trendline with increased volume, consider short positions targeting previous support levels.
Stop-Loss Placement: Place stops just outside the opposite side of the breakout point to mitigate risks from false breakouts.
2. 30-Minute Time Frame: Mixed Channels (Descending and Ascending)
Patterns Observed:
Descending Channels: Suggest bearish continuation if in a downtrend or a potential reversal if broken to the upside.
Ascending Channels: Suggest bullish continuation if in an uptrend but signal a potential reversal if broken to the downside.
Market Implications:
Corrective Phase: The presence of both descending and ascending channels indicates the market is in a corrective phase, oscillating between support and resistance levels.
Range-Bound Trading: Until a significant breakout occurs, the market is likely to remain range-bound.
Trading Strategy:
Range Trading: Consider buying at the lower boundaries of the channels and selling at the upper boundaries.
Breakout Preparation: Prepare for a potential breakout by setting alerts around key levels (upper and lower boundaries of the channels).
Stop-Loss Placement: Place stops just outside the channels to protect against unexpected breakouts.
3. 1-Hour Time Frame: Rising Wedge Pattern
Pattern Details:
Rising Wedge: This pattern is characterized by higher highs and higher lows within a narrowing upward slope, typically a bearish reversal pattern.
Implications:
Bearish Reversal: The rising wedge suggests that upward momentum is weakening, and a potential breakdown could follow.
Reversal Zone: The price is near the upper boundary of the wedge, which may serve as a reversal zone, especially if a breakout to the downside occurs on high volume.
Trading Strategy:
Short Entry on Breakdown: Enter short positions if the price breaks below the lower trendline of the wedge with confirming volume.
Target Levels: Target the lower boundary of the larger ascending channel or previous support levels as take-profit points.
Stop-Loss Placement: Set stops above the most recent high within the wedge to protect against false breakouts.
4. 4-Hour Time Frame: Broader Rising Channel and Nested Patterns
Patterns Observed:
Broad Rising Channel: Indicates a larger uptrend is intact, providing a bullish bias.
Nested Descending Channels: Smaller corrective patterns within the broader uptrend suggest temporary pauses or consolidation phases before potential continuation moves.
Key Levels to Watch:
Resistance at 2,540: A break above this level would suggest a bullish continuation and potential for new highs.
Support at 2,470: A break below this level would indicate a significant shift in market sentiment towards bearishness.
Market Implications:
Potential Continuation or Reversal: The larger rising channel gives more weight to potential continuation moves, but the presence of smaller corrective patterns within suggests caution.
Echo Phase: The nested descending channel could represent an echo phase, a corrective move within the larger uptrend.
Trading Strategy:
Long Positions on Break Above 2,540: Enter long positions if the price breaks above this resistance level with confirming volume.
Short Positions on Break Below 2,470: Consider short positions if the price breaks below this support level with increased volume.
Volume Confirmation: Ensure any breakout is confirmed with a surge in volume to avoid false signals.
Risk Management: Use wider stops given the higher time frame context to avoid being stopped out by market noise.
5. Synthesis of Multi-Time Frame Analysis:
Confluence of Patterns: The alignment of rising wedges, symmetrical triangles, and mixed channels across multiple time frames suggests a market at a critical juncture. The presence of both bullish and bearish signals indicates that the market is poised for a decisive move.
Key Takeaways for Traders:
Patience and Discipline: Wait for confirmed breakouts with volume before entering trades. Do not rush into trades without sufficient confirmation.
Adaptability: Be prepared to adapt strategies based on the direction of the breakout or breakdown. Use alerts and monitor key levels closely.
Focus on Higher Time Frame Signals: Higher time frame signals carry more weight and should be given priority when making trading decisions.
Risk Management: Employ tight stops and carefully manage position sizes to limit exposure in case of adverse market movements.
6. Final Recommendations:
Potential Bullish Scenario:
Watch for a break above 2,540 on strong volume across multiple time frames. A confirmed breakout could lead to a bullish continuation towards new highs.
Potential Bearish Scenario:
Monitor for a breakdown below 2,470, especially if supported by a break of the rising wedge and descending channel patterns. A breakdown here would signal a shift to a bearish trend.
By combining these insights with real-time monitoring of market conditions, traders can enhance their decision-making process and capitalize on high-probability trade setups in the XAU/USD market.
SPY LOVERS ALMOST ATH AGAIN!! But be very Careful read this... We are very close to the price reaching our institutional order block in the supply zone, where we could expect a small liquidity rejection upon touching it.
According to my forecast, the maximum rejection would be at 549.71, no more! This is a historically significant zone where the price has shown important impulses and patterns. Additionally, the price is moving with a lot of volume and buying strength. We are very, very close to reaching new all-time highs, but the big question is:
Will it surpass the all-time highs this week?
In my opinion, it might, but we must be very cautious as it could be an institutional liquidity trap leading to a strong pullback. So, we need to stay alert to any movement it makes.
Thank you for supporting my analysis; so far, everything has been going according to the forecast.
Best regards.
Macro Monday 61 - Fed Balance Sheet Signals Liquidity BounceMacro Monday 61
Fed Balance Sheet Hits Long Term Supporting Trend Line
The Federal Reserve Balance Sheet
The balance sheet is published weekly, typically on Thursday afternoons, and it provides valuable information on the direction of global liquidity and the fed’s monetary policy.
When the Federal Reserve’s balance sheet increases, it means that the central bank is acquiring more assets. This expansion can occur through purchases of Treasury securities, mortgage-backed securities, or other financial instruments. The increase in assets typically leads to greater liquidity in the financial system and can influence interest rates. Conversely, a decrease in the balance sheet indicates asset sales and reduced liquidity
The Chart - FRED:WALCL
▫️ Since April 2022 the Federal Reserve Balance Sheet has reduced from $8.973 trillion to $7.140 trillion (reduction of $1.833 Trillion).
▫️ Right now, the chart has signaled that we have hit a critical diagonal trend line support (red line on chart).
▫️ We have hit this red trend line twice in the past (Sept 2019 & Aug 2008) and on both occasions it bounced from the red trend line and the balance sheet thereafter increased significantly for 2 to 5 years.
If you follow me on Trading view, you can revisit this chart at any time and press play to get the up to date data and see if we have held the line or fallen below it.
What does the following mean to you?
✅High likelihood of interest rate reductions in Sept.
✅Apparent stabilization of the rate of inflation (U.S)
✅A current stable labor market in the U.S
⏳The possibility of the balance sheet bouncing from trend support and increasing from the support line as it did in the past for 2 years+ (Increasing Global Liquidity).
Versus
🚨 The yield curve un-inverting (moving above 0)
🚨 Sahm Rule Triggered
🚨 The marginal increase in the U.S. Unemployment Rate which is consistent with prior recessions.
🚨 U.S. Initial Jobless Claims and Continuous Jobless claims have had increases consistent with pre recession historic activity.
🚨Job openings reducing since March 2022 from approx. 12m to 9m (this would be the largest pre recession drop ever if followed by a recession.
🚨 Warren Buffet sitting on the biggest pile of cash ever.
Does this all say “soft landing” imminent or should we be worried?
In my opinion, we will know by Jan 2026. Its a big window of time, but the timing is the biggest challenge, and if we can take one thing from the above, volatility is guaranteed.
Happy Trading

MATICUSD tested the June 2022 Historic SupportMATICUSD has reached a demand zone last tested in June 2022. The market formed a long-tailed bar on the weekly timeframe, signaling a rejection of this level and the potential for a bullish move. Additionally, it broke and closed above the accumulation zone, which is another encouraging sign. If the price stays above the 0.400 level, the market could rise to retest the resistance. There’s potential for a breakout from the channel, continuing its bullish trend. Pay attention to the August close, as the monthly chart is shaping another significant long-tailed bar. The target is the resistance at 0.500
XAU/USD Technical Analysis: Ascending Channel with Multi-TouchThese charts depict an evolving market structure for XAU/USD (Gold Spot) and highlight significant zones and patterns across multiple timeframes.
1. Key Patterns and Channels:
Ascending Channel:
A dominant ascending channel is visible on multiple timeframes. This is a classic continuation pattern, suggesting that as long as price remains within this channel, the prevailing trend (upward) is intact.
The channel's lower boundary has been tested multiple times, reinforcing its validity as a support level.
Weekly Flag:
The “Weekly Flag” mentioned is a larger pattern that might suggest a continuation of a broader trend. Flags typically form after strong moves and consolidate before a potential continuation in the direction of the initial move.
The flag is being “correctively broken,” which hints at a potential retest of the lower boundary or a reversal if the flag fails to hold.
2. Liquidity Zones (LQZ):
15M LQZ / Reversal Zone:
This zone is near the current price and is a high-probability area for a reversal or significant price reaction. The price reacting to this level could determine the short-term direction.
1HR and 4HR LQZ:
These zones are lower and represent potential targets or areas where the price might find support if it breaks down from the current structure.
Daily and Weekly LQZ:
These are even broader zones of interest. Their distance from the current price indicates that if the price moves toward these levels, a significant trend change or a large corrective phase could be unfolding.
3. Potential Scenarios:
Bullish Continuation:
If the price holds within the ascending channel and breaks above the “corrective break” in the weekly flag, this could lead to a continuation of the upward move, targeting new highs.
Bearish Reversal:
If the price breaks below the ascending channel and breaches the 15M LQZ, it might move towards the lower liquidity zones (1HR, 4HR), indicating a deeper correction or a trend reversal.
Multi-Touch Confirmation and Advanced Pattern Recognition:
Multi-Touch Confirmation :
The chart shows multiple touches on the trendlines, especially on the ascending channel's lower boundary. These touches reinforce the trendline's validity and increase the likelihood of a significant move upon the next touch.
ADVANCED Pattern RECON:
The "corrective break" within the weekly flag and the smaller internal channels within the larger ascending channel provide a "pattern within a pattern" scenario, which often precedes significant moves.
Conclusion:
Monitor the 15M LQZ closely as it's a crucial area that could determine the short-term direction of the market. If price reacts strongly at this level, consider the implications for either a continuation (bullish scenario) or a breakdown (bearish scenario).
GBP/USD SELLswept highs and instantly rejected forming a bearish pattern (wicked liquidity zone followed by a bearish candle). We are in a bullish trend as of now but I don't think it has enough fuel to target the Daily swing highs right now so the only way left to go is down for liquidity and a cheaper price so that the big guys can enter in. As always this idea can be 100% wrong because.. forex so use your own analysis for confirmation.
Bitcoin Contracting before ExplodingBTCUSD has seen a solid rebound off a crucial support level, successfully capturing liquidity at the previous month's low. Over the past week, the daily chart displayed choppy price action, leading to a period of consolidation within a tight range. Notably, the weekly timeframe has formed an inside bar pattern, signalling potential indecision among traders. A break and close above 63,000 could provide a strong bullish signal, potentially driving the market toward the next resistance level at 73,000. The upward momentum could persist, especially if the market rejects the prior week's low. On the 1H timeframe, a classic triangle pattern is unfolding, suggesting the price may continue oscillating within this structure before making a decisive move. The target is the resistance zone at 63,400
GBPUSDGood morning traders, new week sale of new opportunities, I hope you have a week full of many profits. Today without any fundamentals in the middle we can see that the price can give very interesting entries both in sales in the London day and some succulent purchases for the NY day. Remember that we react, we do not predict.
Gold Teeters on the Edge: Major Reversal or Breakout?The charts provided for XAU/USD (Gold Spot) on various time frames present a comprehensive analysis scenario where several key patterns and zones align across different time frames.
Analysis Breakdown:
1. **Daily Time Frame (1st Chart):**
- Rising Wedge Pattern: This is typically a bearish reversal pattern, especially when it forms after a significant uptrend. The price is nearing the upper boundary of this wedge.
- Daily Liquidity Zone (LQZ) at ~2,484, The price is within a critical liquidity zone. This zone often acts as a magnet for price action, where significant buying or selling can occur. A reaction here could signal a reversal, particularly since it aligns with the top of the wedge.
2. 4-Hour Time Frame (2nd Chart):
- Continuation of the Rising Wedge: The 4-hour chart mirrors the daily chart, emphasizing the wedge pattern's significance. The price is testing the upper boundary of this wedge, which could result in a breakout or a reversal.
- Confluence at LQZ: The price is closely interacting with the daily LQZ, reinforcing its importance. Multiple touches near this area might suggest either absorption of liquidity before a breakout or a potential exhaustion leading to a pullback.
3. 1-Hour Time Frame (3rd Chart):
- Bearish Flag Structures: Two bearish flags are visible, which are typically continuation patterns indicating the possibility of a downward move. These have occurred within the broader rising wedge.
- Approach to Key Resistance: The price is at a critical juncture where the rising wedge's upper boundary coincides with a strong resistance level.
4. 15-Minute Time Frame (4th Chart):
- Breakout and Retest Scenario: On the lowest time frame, a breakout from the bearish flag is evident, with the price retesting the structure's top. This may indicate either a continuation to the upside or a failure and reversal, depending on how it interacts with the liquidity zone above.
Potential Trading Scenarios:
- Reversal Scenario: Given the rising wedge pattern and its bearish implications, combined with the proximity to a significant liquidity zone, there's a strong potential for a reversal. Watch for a clear bearish signal on the 4-hour or daily chart, such as a bearish engulfing candle, which could confirm the reversal. A break below the wedge's lower boundary would be a stronger confirmation.
- Breakout Scenario: If the price breaks above the wedge's upper boundary and holds, especially on the daily chart, it could signal a continuation of the uptrend. However, be cautious of potential false breakouts, especially around such strong resistance and liquidity zones.
- Entry Considerations: If considering a short entry, look for a rejection from the LQZ on the 4-hour or 1-hour chart, ideally supported by bearish confirmation patterns (e.g., engulfing candles, pin bars). A reduced-risk entry could be taken on a lower time frame after the breakout and retest of the wedge or flag structure.
