MarketBreakdown | GOLD, GBPUSD, DOLLAR INDEX, EURAUD Here are the updates & outlook for multiple instruments in my watch list. 1️⃣ #GOLD XAUUSD 1H time frame 🥇 Earlier on Sunday, I shared a completed head & shoulders pattern on Gold. Its neckline was respected and the price bounced from that, setting a new historic high. That same neckline is now a perfect base for a new head & shoulders pattern. The plan remains the same, if the price violates and closes below that a correctional movement will be expected. 2️⃣ #GBPUSD daily time frame 🇬🇧🇺🇸 GBPUSD looks weak and shows a clear signs of a strong overbought state. We see a breakout attempt of a rising parallel channel at the moment. Daily candle close below that will trigger a correctional movement with a high probability. 3️⃣ DOLLAR INDEX #DXY daily time frame 💵 Dollar Index shows clear strength after 2 recent US fundamental releases. The last obstacle for the bulls is the underlined blue resistance, its breakout and a daily candle close above will trigger more growth. 4️⃣ #EURAUD daily time frame 🇪🇺🇦🇺 It feels like the pair is returning to a global bullish trend. The price has recently retraced and perfectly respected the underlined support. With a high probability, we will see a test of a current high soon.

GOLD → Fading out before the news. Possible long-squeezeFX:XAUUSD continues its bullish trend, but locally, the movement is in a very narrow channel (wedge). To form a potential for further movement, the price may form a long-squeeze before or at the time of news... Fundamentally, gold remains a bullish asset due to the Fed's rate cut forecasts and economic risks associated with Trump's tariff policy. Gold hit a new high on Wednesday after the Fed reiterated plans to cut rates twice this year, raised its inflation forecast and worsened growth and employment estimates.The price is further supported by escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, with Israel announcing the resumption of ground operations in Gaza. Gold is forming a bull market. Before further growth (before the news) the price may enter the liquidity zone (fvg, 3028, 3024), after which it will continue to grow. Dollar enters local correction before the news, which creates pressure on gold Resistance levels: 3046, 3051, 3056 Support levels: 3038, 3030, 3024 Price is forming a retest of the wedge support, which increases the chances of a breakdown. If the support fails to hold, the price may go down to the above support before rising further. But! If gold bounces from 3038 and consolidates above 3044, the growth will continue without a deep pullback Regards R. Linda!

Charting the Path Forward: Key Levels to WatchPrevious Analysis: Successful Bullish Breakout In our previous analysis, we identified a Falling Wedge pattern accompanied by bullish divergence, forecasting a breakout above 147.807. The price hit our target, confirming the bullish momentum and reaching key Fibonacci levels. What’s Next: Upon analyzing the chart, we observe that price has found support at 147.535 after a pullback during the American session. We anticipate the price to reach our first target, and after consolidation and a possible pullback, we expect to hit our second target near the upper line of the channel. However, if the price declines from the first target and breaches support at 147.535, the next key support level is at 146.306. Remember to follow your risk management strategies to protect your capital.

GOLD → Consolidation ahead of Fed rate meeting...FX:XAUUSD goes into consolidation 3038 - 3024 before the news - Fed rate meeting. The situation is generally predictable, but gold is reacting to rising geopolitical risks. Gold is stabilizing before the Fed decision , markets are waiting for the data. The regulator is expected to keep rates, but Powell's forecasts will determine further dynamics. “Hawkish” tone of the Fed may lead to the strengthening of the dollar and gold correction. “Dovish” signals about economic risks will support the growth of metal prices. Geopolitical tensions and Trump's tariffs continue to have an impact.The market is preparing for high volatility on the background of the Fed's decision and events in the world Resistance levels: 2038, 2045 Support levels: 3024, 3015, 3004.9 Several scenarios can be considered for trading: Breakdown of resistance 3038 - 3045, consolidation of the price above the level with subsequent growth to 3050 - 3060. Or wait for the reaction to the news and with a possible breakdown of support to look for strong levels to trade a false breakdown, for example 3024, 3015, 3005. Regards R. Linda!

USDJPY → Resistance retest (wedge) before the Fed meetingFX:USDJPY is forming a correction to trend resistance as part of the dollar index consolidation. An interesting situation is forming which could be a continuation of the downtrend. Fundamentally, today is an important day. The FED interest rate meeting is ahead. Traders are waiting, the dollar is consolidating at this time. Most likely the rate will remain unchanged, but in this key everyone is interested in Powell's comments on monetary policy and their future actions. USDJPY at this time is forming a correction to the bearish trend resistance, before the news the currency pair may test the resistance conglomerate: a wedge, 0.79 fibo, or an orderblock located outside the channel Resistance levels: 150.16, 150.95 Support levels: 148.92 False breakout of the resistance zone can provoke a fall, as well as breakdown of the support of the “wedge” with the subsequent consolidation of the price in the selling zone. The price may test the zone of interest at 147.6, 146.54. Regards R. Linda!

USD/JPY 4H – Short Setup at Upper Trend Channel Projection.USD/JPY 4H – Short Setup at Upper Trend Channel Projection USD/JPY is currently trading within a well-defined descending channel. Price is approaching the upper trend channel projection, a key area derived from parallel structure analysis. While this level has not been tested multiple times, it aligns with the broader bearish trend, making it a potential rejection zone. If price fails to close above this projection on the 4H timeframe, a short position will be executed with a stop-loss above the recent highs. The initial target is the previous lows at 146.60, while the extended target is the lower trend channel trendline. Watching for confirmation before entry.

What is Gold Waiting For? Is This the ATH 3045? In our group, we secured profits in two rounds when gold hit an all-time high of $3045. Currently, we are still focusing on selling at $3040-$3045, as this is the liquidity grab zone for sellers. I believe we can still trade within the sideway range, and be cautious of the two liquidity sweep zones as I have marked in the image. Sell Liquidity 3040-3045: We can place Sell Limit orders in this area. Buy Liquidity 3020-3025: We can place Buy Limit orders in this area. The reason for this sideway phase of gold is that the market is awaiting the Fed meeting at 1:30 AM tomorrow, March 20th. After that, a strong trend will emerge. My plan is still leaning towards the Buy side, as the market is currently concerned about a potential economic recession in the US. Therefore, we can focus on making small profits during this sideway period and wait for the next upward wave. Thank you for your review, and I hope you'll stay longer by pressing Follow.

Best GOLD XAUUSD Consolidation Trading Strategy Explained In article , you will learn how to identify and trade consolidation on Gold easily. I will share with you my consolidation trading strategy and a lot of useful XAUUSD trading tips. 1. How to Identify Consolidation In order to trade consolidation, you should learn to recognize that. The best and reliable way to spot consolidation is to analyse a price action. Consolidation is the state of the market when it STOPS updating higher highs & higher lows in a bullish trend OR lower lows & lower highs in a bearish trend. In other words, it is the situation when the market IS NOT trending. Most of the time, during such a period, the price forms a horizontal channel. Above is a perfect example of a consolidation on Gold chart on a daily. We see a horizontal parallel channel with multiple equal or almost equal highs and lows inside. For a correct trading of a consolidation, you should correctly underline its boundaries. Following the chart above, the upper boundary - the resistance, is based on the highest high and the highest candle close. The lowest candle close and the lowest low compose the lower boundary - the support. 2. What Consolidation Means Spotting the consolidating market, it is important to understand its meaning and the processes that happen inside. Consolidation signifies that the market found a fair value. Growth and bullish impulses occur because of the excess of demand on the market, while bearish moves happen because of the excess of supply. When supply and demand find a balance, sideways movements start . Look at the price movements on Gold above. First, the market was rising because of a strong buying pressure. Finally, the excess of buying interest was curbed by the sellers. The market started to trade with a sideways range and found the equilibrium At some moment, demand started to exceed the supply again and the consolidation was violated . The price updated the high and continued growth. Usually, the violation of the consolidation happens because of some fundamental event that makes the market participants reassess the value of the asset. At the same time, the institutional traders, the smart money accumulate their trading positions within the consolidation ranges. As the accumulation completes, they push the prices higher/lower, violating the consolidation. 3. How to Trade Consolidation Once you identified a consolidation on Gold, there are 2 strategies to trade it. The resistance of the consolidation provides a perfect zone to sell the market from. You simply put your stop loss above the resistance and your take profit should be the upper boundary of the support. That is the example of a long trade from support of the consolidation on Gold. The support of the sideways movement will be a safe zone to buy Gold from. Stop loss will lie below the support zone, take profit will be the lower boundary of the resistance. AS the price reached a take profit level and tested a resistance, that is a short trade from that. You can follow such a strategy till the price violates the consolidation and establishes a trend. The market may stay a very extended period of time in sideways, providing a lot of profitable trading opportunities. What I like about Gold consolidation trading is that the strategy is very straightforward and completely appropriate for beginners. It works on any time frame and can be used for intraday, swing trading and scalping ❤️Please, support my work with like, thank you!❤️ I am part of Trade Nation's Influencer program and receive a monthly fee for using their TradingView charts in my analysis.

Gold (XAU/USD) Breakout & Retest Trade Setup - Bullish Move!Gold (XAU/USD) has successfully broken out of the consolidation zone after a strong rally. The price action recently tested the previous resistance level, which is now acting as new support. Trade Setup: Entry: Price has retested the breakout zone and is showing signs of bullish momentum. Support: The previous resistance area (now turned support) is holding well. Stop Loss: Placed just below the support at $3,034.562 to manage risk. Target: A potential upside move towards the $3,055 zone, which aligns with the next key resistance level. This setup follows a breakout-retest continuation pattern, a classic technical strategy where price revisits a breakout level before resuming the trend. If bullish momentum continues, we can expect a move towards the projected target. 📌 Key Levels to Watch: Support: $3,034.562 Resistance/Target: $3,055 Current Price: $3,039.925 💡 Risk-to-Reward Ratio: Favorable, as the stop loss is placed strategically below support. ⚠️ Disclaimer : This is not financial advice.

Euro will rebound from support area and continue to move upHello traders, I want share with you my opinion about Euro. This chart illustrates how the price entered an upward channel and immediately broke below the 1.0500 support level. After trading for some time within the buyer zone, it dropped to the support line. Following this move, the Euro reversed and started climbing, eventually reaching the 1.0500 level again, breaking above it, and making a retest. The price then continued to rise and later reached the current support level, which coincided with the support area and the channel's trend line, where it traded for a while. Soon after, the Euro broke through the 1.0805 level and remained within the support area for an extended period before climbing to 1.0945. At that point, it reversed and started declining. The Euro quickly dropped to the support line of the channel and then bounced back up. However, it recently fell again to the support line of the channel, where it has been gradually moving higher since. Given this setup, I expect the Euro to decline to the support area before rebounding and continuing its upward movement within the channel. Based on this, my TP is set at 1.1150. Please share this idea with your friends and click Boost 🚀

HelenP. I Gold will continue to move up in upward channelHi folks today I'm prepared for you Gold analytics. Looking at the chart, we can see that the price entered the channel and began moving higher along the trend line. Soon, it climbed to Support 2, which aligned with the support zone, broke this level, retested it, and then continued its upward movement. Later, Gold reached Support 1, which also coincided with a support zone. Shortly after, it broke this level as well, reaching the resistance line of the channel before making a correction to another support zone. The price traded around this area for some time before making a corrective move below Support 1, even briefly breaking the trend line in a false breakout. However, it quickly resumed its upward movement within the channel. Gold then broke through Support 1 again, retested it, and rebounded from the support zone. Based on the current structure, I expect XAU/USD to make a corrective move toward the trend line before continuing its growth inside the upward channel. Given this scenario, my goal is set at 3070 points. If you like my analytics you may support me with your like/comment ❤️
