XAUUSD 1-Hour Technical & Fundamental AnalysisXAUUSD 1-Hour Technical & Fundamental Analysis Gold prices have shown clear signs of exhaustion around the $3,370 level, suggesting a potential slowdown in bullish momentum. This aligns with the improving global economic outlook, which is reducing investor demand for safe-haven assets like gold, resulting in a notable pullback in price. On the 1-hour chart, we identified a well-formed Head & Shoulders pattern, signaling a potential trend reversal. The major key support at $3,280 has been tested multiple times, establishing its strength. Price recently broke below this level, confirming bearish intent and opening the door for potential further downside movement. On the 15-minute timeframe, signs of accumulation appeared, followed by a retest of the previous major support (now resistance). This behavior suggests a possible liquidity hunt, where institutional players may manipulate price to trigger stop-losses before placing large sell orders. 📉 Bearish Fundamentals for Gold Market Exhaustion: Gold is losing bullish strength around ₹98,000 ($3,370), as improved economic conditions make investors less risk-averse, reducing gold’s appeal. Federal Reserve's Hawkish Tone: The Fed plans only two rate cuts in 2025, a more cautious stance than expected. This boosts the U.S. dollar’s strength, adding pressure on gold prices. 💵 Bullish News for the U.S. Dollar Fed's Rate Policy: The Fed's less aggressive rate-cut path strengthens the USD, making it more attractive to global investors. U.S. Economic Resilience: Solid U.S. data and reduced recession fears continue to fuel dollar demand, giving it an edge over gold as a safe haven. 📌 Disclaimer: This is not financial advice.

EURUSD: Breaks Down : Is 1.11000 the Next Target?OANDA:EURUSD continues to follow its bearish trajectory after rejecting resistance within a clearly defined descending channel. At this key level, price formed a converging triangle pattern and has now broken to the downside, confirming strong selling pressure. If sellers maintain control at this zone, we could see price fall toward 1.11000, a key support level that aligns well as a short-term target within the current bearish market structure. However, failure to break below this support could invalidate the bearish outlook and signal a potential recovery. Traders should monitor for bearish confirmation signals, such as weak pullbacks, lower highs, or increasing sell volume before entering short positions. If you agree with this outlook or have additional insights, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments!

Gold price shorts stabilize, continuing to fall 💡Message Strategy Gold prices fell into a weak consolidation pattern as the U.S. dollar continued to rebound and market risk appetite increased, suppressing safe-haven demand. Although it rebounded slightly, it failed to stand firm at $3,300, indicating that the upper resistance is still strong. From a fundamental perspective, the recently released US durable goods orders and consumer confidence index performed better than expected, providing support for the US dollar. Specific data showed that US durable goods orders fell 6.3% in April, better than the expected -7.9%, although far lower than the revised value of 7.6% last month; core orders (excluding transportation) recorded an increase of 0.2%. In addition, the US consumer confidence index rebounded sharply to 98 in May, the largest monthly increase in nearly four years, reflecting the improvement of economic and employment prospects. Trump's postponement of the 50% tariff on the European Union until July 9 has strengthened risk appetite in the short term and weakened the safe-haven demand for gold. However, there are still major uncertainties in trade policy, coupled with the continued deterioration of the US fiscal situation and continued geopolitical risks, which provide some support for gold prices. In addition, the market generally expects the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates twice in 2025, and this prospect is gradually being factored into gold prices. In particular, if the "Beauty Act" is passed, it will aggravate the fiscal deficit, which may put medium-term pressure on the US dollar and provide long-term support for non-yielding gold. 📊Technical aspects On the technical level, gold prices fell below the short-term rising trend line on Tuesday and then fell further. It is currently testing the $3,300 level where the 200-period moving average of the 4-hour chart is located. Once the moving average is clearly broken and a valid close is formed, the short-term downward trend may be confirmed. The initial support level below is in the $3,250-3,245 area. This range has formed a consolidation platform in the past few trading days. Once it falls below or triggers more stop-loss selling, the target will point to the $3,200 integer mark. Therefore, for the next gold, the best way is to suppress the decline at 3320, break through 3285 (expand the range to find 3275), and successfully break through the downward switching space range of about 30-40 US dollars. If the price breaks through 3320, it will be treated as a sweep, waiting for the upper side to determine the higher resistance of 3330-3325, and then look down to 3285 (expand the range to find 3275), breaking through the switching space 💰 Strategy Package Short Position：3320-3330,3340-3350

XRP Is Quiet—But This Calm Is Deceptive!Yello Paradisers—have you noticed how #XRP isn't on anyone’s radar right now? It’s not trending, no one’s hyping it, and to many, it’s just another slow mover. But here’s the thing: this type of silence often comes before the real storm, and the technical are quietly lining up. 💎#XRPUSDT is seeing now a period of consolidation The 1D bullish trend structure has been broken, and since then, price has entered into a tightening consolidation phase. While this may seem like indecision, it’s more likely a preparation for a potential high-probability upside expansion. 💎Price is now hovering just above the 0.786 Fibonacci level (~$2.25), which has started acting as a soft support. This is not a level to blindly trust, but one to monitor for reactions. If price manages to hold here, the next high-probability target lies at the short-term resistance around $2.5917, followed by major resistance at $2.9480, which aligns with a broader liquidity zone. 💎One key factor to keep in mind: the descending trendline liquidity has not been swept for a long time. That uncollected liquidity still sits just overhead, and markets usually don’t leave such inefficiencies behind forever. A spike toward that zone becomes increasingly probable the longer we range here. 💎At the same time, the MTF EMA on the daily chart is acting as a soft dynamic resistance, pushing the price down gradually. This setup increases the probability that we may see another touch of the 0.786 level. If that fails to hold decisively, the next likely area of interest will be the major support zone around $2.00. 💎Still, that major support remains unbroken and continues to act as a probability-backed structure for potential bullish defense. Until we get a clean daily candle close below $1.791 (invalidation level), this entire zone remains technically favorable for a potential reversal or liquidity sweep to the upside. We are playing it safe right now, Paradisers. If you want to be consistently profitable, you need to be extremely patient and always wait only for the best, highest probability trading opportunities.

$ZB - 30y Treasury Futures Sell off in Equity Risk OnThe 30-Year Treasury Bond Futures (ZB) sold off notably, driven by a combination of macro headlines and technical positioning. A key catalyst was the European Union’s decision to postpone the implementation of retaliatory auto tariffs until July 9th, which temporarily eased geopolitical tensions and triggered a risk-on rotation into equities — at the expense of duration-heavy fixed income assets. From a technical standpoint, ZB fell sharply from the upper 3 standard deviation Bollinger Band and found support near the 2 standard deviation band, where it stabilized. It then retraced roughly 50% of the move, tagging the 20-period simple moving average. Market participants are now closely watching whether the contract completes a full measured move lower to 111'19, a level that represents: The 100% Fibonacci extension of the prior decline A test of the lower 3 standard deviation band A notable inefficiency zone on the hourly chart While the MOVE Index has declined and is now tracking sideways — signaling reduced bond market volatility — traders remain focused on long-end supply, fiscal slippage, and global rate re-alignments. Until these themes settle, technical levels like 111'19 may continue to act as magnets for price discovery in long-dated Treasuries.

GER40 | Pullback From High – Retesting Recent Breakout AreaPrice recently printed a new high at 24,336.23 and is now pulling back. It's currently hovering around the 24,104.39 zone — a minor price shelf that formed before the final push upward. This level is being retested and may act as a pivot for the next move. Support at: 24,104.39 🔽 | 23,900.00 🔽 Resistance at: 24,336.23 🔼 🔎 Bias: 🔼 Bullish: If price holds above 24,104.39 and shows bullish candles, a move back toward 24,336.23 could follow. A breakout beyond that high would signal continuation. 🔽 Bearish: A drop below 24,104.39 — especially with momentum — could push price back to the 23,900.00 level, and potentially deeper. 📛 Disclaimer: This is not financial advice.

BTC Trap & Reverse: The Power of SFPs in ActionBTC continues to chop in a tight range near its previous all-time high. While price action may appear messy at first glance, traders using a combination of structure, Fibonacci levels, and order flow tools are spotting clean opportunities — especially through Swing Failure Patterns (SFPs). 🔍 What Just Happened? Bitcoin recently rejected from the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement level — a classic reaction zone. What made this move powerful was the SFP that formed at that level. Price swept above a prior high, triggering breakout buys, only to reverse. This type of move traps late longs and offers an ideal short entry. 🧠 Educational Insight: Why SFPs Are One of the Best Setups SFPs (Swing Failure Patterns) are some of the highest-probability trades you can take for a few key reasons: 1️⃣ Liquidity-driven: They form where stop losses cluster — above highs or below lows — creating a magnet for price. 2️⃣ Clean invalidation: The wick high/low gives a natural stop-loss level, keeping risk tight. 3️⃣ Fast reaction: Once trapped traders are forced to exit, price often reverses sharply — giving you strong follow-through. 4️⃣ Confirmable with order flow: Using tools like Exocharts, you can see aggressive longs/shorts piling in just before the reversal. This adds conviction to the setup. 📏 Current Confluence: Rejection from the 0.786 Fib retracement SFP confirmed on high volume 1:1 trend-based Fib extension sits at ~$105,410 That level also lines up with the 0.666 Fib retracement Anchored VWAP around $105K Liquidity pool right at that zone too — a likely magnet 🎯 Trade Idea: Short triggered at the SFP wick, stop just above it. First target: the 1:1 extension near $105.4K. Risk-reward is excellent with high probability if price continues to unwind late longs. ✅ Key Takeaway: In ranges like this, you don’t need to guess direction — you need to react to structure. SFPs give you that edge. When paired with real-time tools like Exocharts and anchored VWAPs, these trades become sniper entries rather than coin flips. Let the market show its hand — and trade the reaction, not the prediction. 📌 Summary: This is how you avoid overtrading in chop: wait for key levels, watch how price reacts, and let trapped traders create the move. If BTC revisits the $105K region, it’s a major area to watch for reaction — or to take partials if you’re in a short. The best trades come from patience + precision. _________________________________ If you found this helpful, leave a like and comment below! Got requests for the next technical analysis? Let me know.

THE KOG REPORT - UpdateEnd of day update from us here at KOG: A good start to the day with us hitting not only the red box target we wanted but completing the Excalibur target that was active giving a nice long. After that, we identified the pull back into the bias level 3305 which only gave us a 50pip bounce into the target. We then said price shouldn't go back to 3310, if it did we would break, which consequently happened, thankfully we had stopped trading and called it a day by then. The range continues and price is accumulating, this range now with support 3290 and resistance 3310 could be the play towards the end of the session, so anyone long, we would say watch this levels on the red boxes for a break either side. As always, trade safe. KOG

How to draw support and resistance levels the right way? 1️⃣ Why Are Support and Resistance Levels So Important? Support and resistance levels show where price has reacted strongly in the past. These are zones where many traders including large players have placed buy or sell orders. Support = where buyers step in and push price up Resistance = where sellers step in and push price down These levels are important because they act like decision zones: - Price might bounce from these levels - Or break through and start a new move - Or even fake out traders before reversing again Knowing where these levels are gives you an edge: - You can better time your entries and exits - You avoid chasing price in the middle of nowhere - You prepare for market reactions not random guesses Think of them like traffic lights for the market when price hits them, something important usually happens. 2️⃣ Three Main Types of Support and Resistance There are 3 key types of support and resistance levels traders commonly use: - Level-Based: Horizontal zones drawn from key highs and lows - Pattern-Based: Support/resistance found in chart patterns like triangles, flags, etc. - Channel-Based: Diagonal trendlines showing support and resistance in a channel Today, we focus on level-based support and resistance horizontal lines drawn on key price zones. 3️⃣ How to Draw Support and Resistance Levels Use daily, weekly, or monthly timeframes to find major zones. These higher timeframes give you stronger, more respected levels. Look for: - Candle bodies that close and open around the same price - Strong wicks rejecting a certain level - Zones where price has bounced multiple times in the past I often pick: - The close of a red candle - The open of the next green candle These spots usually show where sellers lost control and buyers stepped in — or vice versa. 4️⃣ Timeframes and Their Strength The higher the timeframe, the stronger the level: - Monthly = very strong, long-term zones - Weekly = strong and reliable - Daily = useful for swing trading - Lower timeframes (15m, 5m) = more noise, less reliable unless you're day trading or scalping Pick levels based on your strategy: - Swing traders = use daily/weekly/monthly - Scalpers = lower timeframes with extra confluence (volume, structure) 5️⃣ Don’t Use Support/Resistance Alone Support and resistance are helpful — but not enough by themselves. Always combine them with: - Market structure (higher highs/lows) - Volume confirmation - Indicators or price action signals You want to watch how price reacts at your levels. Wait for confirmation before making decisions. 6️⃣ Common Mistakes Traders Make Mistake 1: Drawing too many levels clutters your chart and creates confusion. Mistake 2: Keeping old levels that have already been broken or invalidated. Mistake 3: Ignoring volume. Just because price hits a level doesn’t mean it will reverse. You need volume to back the move. Also: Don’t enter blindly on breakout, breakouts can fail. Wait for confirmation. Don’t assume a level is strong just because it’s touched once — look for multiple rejections. 7️⃣ Example: How I Draw Support/Resistance Let’s say I’m looking at a daily chart. - I find a red candle that closes at 42,000 - Then a green candle opens at 42,000 and pushes higher That tells me buyers stepped in at 42,000 — this is a potential support. I draw my horizontal line across that level. Then I zoom into 30m or 15m charts to watch price behavior when it comes back to that level. If price respects it again, I may enter a trade based on the reaction. This technique gives me more confidence and clarity. I know where liquidity might be waiting. I can combine it with indicators or volume tools. I avoid random trades. 🔄 Summary Identify a timeframe – Use the monthly, weekly, or daily chart. Look for two candles – Draw your support or resistance line at the point where one candle closes and the next one opens. Make sure the level hasn’t been hit yet – This helps you spot areas where liquidity grabs might happen. Wait for price to reach the level – Once price touches the support or resistance zone, watch how it reacts. After price touches the level, remove it – Once tested, that level is no longer fresh and should be cleared from your chart. Support and resistance isn’t magic — but used with confluence, it becomes a powerful guide. Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!
