XAUUSD LONG AND SHORTHi Guys, its been a long time since i published an analysis. and I'm back again
Gold sore the other day and reached the 2379 level which was the resistance, and has managed to cool off those buyers.
As always there are some demand and supply levels to take trade from. Our immediate demand level would be around 53-49 which upon reaching, with confirmation we will take trades. If the level is breached other levels below would become possible long points.
Those who want to go short ,currently level around 73-75 is a suitable point and above that levels 85,93,403,412,....
My view is that Before continuing higher market needs to see lower prices and demand levels to test.
* As always add your own intuition and logic into this analysis and proceed with safety measures in place.
Be honorable

Gold Buyers Back in the Fight; H1 Supports Call for AttentionControl changed hands in the gold space (XAU/USD) last week; buyers strengthened their grip, adding +2.5% and snapping a two-week losing streak a whisker off all-time highs of $2,431.
Technicals Favouring Buyers
Last week’s move was (technically) aided by support on the daily timeframe coming in from $2,280, a level which the Research Team were watching closely and recently noted the following (italics):
A move lower will unlikely breach bids from daily support at $2,280, which is an area buyers could look to defend as dip buyers (trend followers) attempt to enter the trend from support.
The above-mentioned support benefitted from a 1.618% Fibonacci projection ratio at $2,293. Among the Harmonic trading community, this is also referred to as an ‘alternate’ or ‘extended’ AB=CD formation. You will note that price has rallied beyond the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement ratio at $2,336, ending the week at $2,371, a 61.8% Fibonacci retracement ratio. Both of the aforesaid ratios are derived from the legs A-D of the AB=CD structure and tend to serve as upside targets for Harmonic traders.
Having seen the AB=CD structure complete (both upside targets achieved) and taking into consideration that the price of the yellow metal remains entrenched within an unmistakable uptrend (no matter which trend identification tool you employ, it all points to the same thing), together with the daily chart’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) rebounding from a combination of the 50.00 centreline and trendline support (extended from the low of 19.33), this remains a buyers’ market. The caveat is the weekly chart’s RSI recently pulling back from overbought highs not seen since mid-2020, though let’s not forget that this indicator can, and often does, remain overbought for prolonged periods in trending environments.
Direction This Week?
Given the bigger picture demonstrating scope to explore higher terrain, shorter-term structure on the H1 timeframe highlights neighbouring demand at $2,347-$2,355 as a possible platform buyers may work with this week. Failure to hold here unearths two additional levels of support to consider at $2,326 and $2,344.
EUR/USD Echoing Bullish Picture Ahead of US CPI Data Europe’s shared currency eked out a marginal gain of +0.1% versus its US counterpart last week, marking a fourth straight week in positive territory for the major currency pair. This will be a watched market ahead of Wednesday’s US CPI print, with technicals suggesting a move higher in EUR/USD from short-term support.
Long-Term Picture
There is little change evident on the monthly scale; buyers and sellers continue to square off just north of support coming in at $1.0516. Overhead, the 50-month simple moving average (SMA) calls for attention at $1.1122, closely shadowed by a layer of resistance at $1.1233. Aside from the aforementioned structure, trend direction continues to lean in favour of bears, emphasising relatively clear lower lows and lower highs since 2008.
While a bearish vibe is realised on the longer-term chart, things are more optimistic on the daily timeframe. After recovering from a support area between $1.0726 and $1.0739, buyers appear to be at the wheel for now (early uptrend visible through higher highs/lows off the bottom formed at $1.0601). While Quasimodo resistance at $1.0802 (black arrow) could ‘throw a spanner in the works’ for further upside this week, any meaningful push higher may take aim as far north as daily resistance between $1.0883 and $1.0864.
Short-Term Picture
As far as the shorter-term picture goes, H1 resistance appears limited/weakened between the current price and the $1.08 big figure, which happens to coincide closely with daily resistance highlighted above at $1.0802.
US hours on Friday witnessed moderate selling, consequently directing the technical headlights towards H1 support at $1.0754. As a result, considering the room for daily price to run for at least $1.0802 resistance, H1 support from $1.0754 could be a location buyers make a show from this week, targeting at least $1.08.
Buy GBP/CAD UK GDPThe GBP/CAD pair on the M30 timeframe presents a potential buying opportunity due to a recent upward breakout from a well-defined bullish channel pattern. This breakout suggests a shift in momentum towards the upside and a higher likelihood of further price gains in the coming hours.
Key Points:
Buy Entry: Consider entering a long position (buying GBP/CAD) above the broken resistance level of the channel, ideally around 1.7120 after confirmation of the breakout. This offers an entry point close to the perceived shift in momentum.
Target Levels: Initial bullish targets lie at the following points, based on the channel and recent price movement:
1.7181: This target is obtained by measuring the height of the channel (from the base to the breakout point) and adding that distance to the breakout price.
1.7215: This is a further extension of the upside target, based on roughly twice the height of the recent price movement before the breakout.
Stop-Loss: To manage risk, place a stop-loss order below the broken resistance line of the channel, ideally with some buffer around 1.7105. This helps limit potential losses if the price unexpectedly reverses and breaks back downwards.

Will BNB maintain current resistance?Hello everyone, let's look at the 4H BNB to USDT chart, in this situation we can see how the price is moving in a sideways trend channel, staying below the local downtrend line.
Let's start by setting goals for the near future that we can include:
T1 = USD 579.2 at which the price struggles
T2 = $605.9
T3 = $623.6
AND
T4 = $648.3
Now let's move on to the stop-loss in case of further market declines:
SL1 = $570.1
SL2 = $539.4
SL3 = $518.2
AND
SL4 = $491.50
Looking at the RSI indicator, we can see that there is still room for price movement down, but when we look at the STOCH indicator, we can see that it has returned to the lower border of the channel, which may slow down the price decline.
GOLD pushing off the 382 fib level - bulls taking higher?Looking at the 4h and daily time frames we can see that price has bounced/rejected the 382 fib level and could be looking to push higher.
There was a small order block below around 2310 which price headed towards before making a reversal. This area presented the 382 fib level which has had some short term rejections. With this, the 382 is likely to predict a 618 extension which is 2366 region. Ambitious right now but still a very likely chance given the circumstances.
So we have a fib level rejection
Price rejecting order blocks
Price is currently at resistance and will need to break key levels above before this target is hit.

- Wait for a retest / roll reverse (lower time frames LL, MA crosses)
- Support levels at 2266 (previous low/Swing) and 2255 (deep daily fib level)

Gold breaks new low, goes short after reboundingGold's 4-hour moving average crosses downwards in a short position, and gold's downward space opens up. Gold's 4-hour double top continues to suppress gold's rise. Gold fell below the last new low of 2292, and gold has resistance at the 2300 mark. If it rebounds to around 2295, it can be shorted first.
Trading strategy: short gold 2295, stop loss 2305, target 2280-2275
