XAU/USD 17 April 2025 Intraday AnalysisH4 Analysis:
-> Swing: Bullish.
-> Internal: Bullish.
Analysis and bias remains the same as analysis dated 16 April 2025. You will note that CHoCH positioning has been brought closer to current price.
Price has printed according to analysis dated 14 April 2025, however, as I mentioned in my analysis yesterday whereby I stated that price has printed a bearish CHoCH and I would continue to monitor price.
Price has printed very minimal pullback and continued its bullish trajectory, therefore, I will again apply discretion and not classify a bullish iBOS. I have however marked this in red as a guide.
Intraday Expectation:
Await for price to print bearish CHoCH to indicate bearish pullback initiation phase. Bearish CHoCH positioning is denoted with a blue dotted line.
Note:
With the Federal Reserve's dovish stance and persisting geopolitical uncertainties, heightened volatility in Gold is expected to continue. Traders should proceed with caution and adjust risk management strategies in this high-volatility environment.
Price could also be driven by President Trump's policies, geopolitical moves and economic decisions which are sparking uncertainty.
H4 Chart:
M15 Analysis:
-> Swing: Bullish.
-> Internal: Bullish.
Price printed according to yesterday's analysis by targeting weak internal high and printing a bullish iBOS.
Price subsequently printed a bearish CHoCH to indicate bearish pullback phase initiation.
Price is now trading within an established internal structure.
Intraday Expectation:
Price to trade down to either discount of 50% internal EQ, or M15 demand zone before targeting weak internal high priced at 3, 357.775.
Alternative Scenario:
As we await for price to print a bearish CHoCH on H4 TF is would be necessary for price to print a bearish iBOS on M15 TF (this is the fractal nature of markets) therefore, it should not come as a surprise is price printed a brearish iBOS.
Note:
With the Federal Reserve maintaining a dovish stance and ongoing geopolitical tensions, volatility in Gold prices is expected to remain elevated. Traders should exercise caution, adjust risk management strategies, and stay prepared for potential price whipsaws in this high-volatility environment.
Trump's tariff announcement will most likely cause considerably increased volatility and whipsaws.

Gold hits resistance at highs, is the bull market over?The highest price hit the 3358 line in early trading, but we need to be wary of the risks of chasing higher prices. Tomorrow is Good Friday and the market will be closed for one day. There is a high probability that those who hold long orders may take profits and exit. Yesterday, the price of gold rose sharply after opening at US$3,230, with a single-day increase of more than US$100. The daily line closed positive, but it has fallen slightly after rising in early trading. From a technical perspective, if the price of gold falls below the early morning low of 3343, it may turn into a volatile pattern; if it holds this support, there is still a chance to challenge new highs. The key support is located at the top-bottom transition level of the 3310-3305 first-line area. If it falls further to $3270, we need to be alert to the risk of a short-term correction. The upper resistance is clearly at the intraday high of 3358
Intraday gold operation advice
1. In the short term, you can go short, target the 3310 line, and hold if you break the position.
2. If the support below is strong, go long 3300-3310, with the target at 3335-3345.
If you agree with this point of view, or you have a better idea, please leave a message in the comment area. I look forward to hearing different voices.

Gold is bullish but not high, but be careful to adjust the risk!
📌 Driving Event
Federal Reserve Chairman Powell made a clear statement at the Chicago Economic Club on Wednesday (April 16) that he would wait for more economic data to be released before deciding the direction of interest rate adjustment. He particularly emphasized that the recent market volatility is a reasonable response to the Trump administration's tariff policy, and bluntly denied the possibility of "Federal Reserve support". This hawkish speech directly led to
the expansion of the decline in US stocks and the continued surge in gold.
The US dollar index has risen in the past two days, and with the increase in tariff policies, there will be no unfavorable factors if the game between major powers does not stop.
📊 Commentary Analysis
Gold continued to rise unilaterally in the past two days, especially the full-day increase of more than 100 US dollars on Wednesday, which almost beat the shorts without any ability to fight back. At present, gold continues to rise and fall, setting new highs, and there is no way to see where the high point is in this rally. For the current market, the only effective trading strategy is to go long on the decline and continue to be bullish. If there is no adjustment and decline space, it is better not to trade.
Even if you are bullish today, you should be aware that there will be room for adjustment at any time. If it falls below 3320, it will not be very strong. If it falls below 3280, gold may fall in retaliation. Therefore, don't be too bullish today and pay attention to the risk of high gold prices. Moreover, Friday is Good Friday, and the US market will be closed for one day. Beware of the risk of closing positions after long positions are profited. 🔶Personal
💰Strategy
Long position:
Gold is long near 3330-35, defend near 3320 area, and target 3360
⭐️ Note: Labaron hopes that traders can properly manage their funds
- Choose the number of lots that matches your funds
- Profit is 4-7% of the fund account
- Stop loss is 1-3% of the fund account
Gold Price Analysis April 16Gold price is at ATH and no stopping point is seen
safe trading strategy can only be waiting for retest of strong buying zones to BUY
There is no specific strategy when gold is at the current price range. Today's strategy focuses on Buy around 3275-3273. The best zone to BUY today is 3246-3244. 3313 is a notable Fibonacci resistance zone, breaking this zone Gold will head to the next Fibonacci zone around 3350.
wish you a successful trading day.
Gold has been crazy recently, how to trade it?
Gold's 1-hour moving average continues to be arranged with golden crosses upward. It is difficult for gold bulls to make a major correction. Gold's US market directly continues to break upward. Then gold's short-term 3317 will once again form a support. If gold falls back near 3320, it can continue to go long.
Although gold is going crazy now, when you are bullish, you should also pay attention to the opportunity for a pullback. Unless the strength is suddenly strong at that time, don't chase the bullish easily. Wait patiently for the chance of a pullback.
Tariffs accelerate gold's peakGold's 1-hour moving average is still in a bullish arrangement with a golden cross upwards. The strength of gold bulls is still relatively strong. Pay attention to the next adjustment. Pay attention to the support of the 3185 line below, and then gold will fluctuate widely to complete the adjustment. Then gold may maintain a narrow range of fluctuations above 3200, and then seek a breakthrough. In this case, gold is still in a strong form, and there will be a rapid rise after the adjustment.
Investment strategy: Gold 3220 long, stop loss 3210, target 3260
Bulls meet risk aversion to set new highsFrom the 4-hour analysis, the current gold bulls continue to sprint. For the time being, we will focus on the short-term suppression of 3290 and 3300 on the upper side. We will focus on the short-term support of 3268-70 on the lower side. The operation is mainly to go long when the price falls back.
Gold operation strategy:
1. Go long when the price falls back to 3268-3270, and add more positions when the price falls back to 3245. Stop loss is 3237, and the target is 3335-3345. Continue to hold if the price breaks through.
Gold signal, 200% profit in one weekGold hit the highest point of 3245 at the opening today and then began to fall back. This is what we have been saying that gold is going to start to fluctuate and adjust. Now it depends on whether gold starts to adjust by exchanging space for time or time for space. However, no matter which method is used, gold must patiently wait for the opportunity to fall back. The hourly moving average of gold is still in a bullish arrangement with a golden cross upward. Now the price is gradually approaching the moving average. If gold uses time to exchange space for adjustment, then gold will continue to resist falling at a high level. Then gold may start to exert strong strength in the European and American markets. At that time, just continue to follow the trend and buy more.
Judging from the current gold trend, today we still focus on the short-term suppression of 3245-3250, and the short-term support of 3200-3206, with a focus on the support of 3188-90. Don't chase the current high position. The daily level reversal and negative closing may occur at any time.
Gold operation strategy:
If gold falls back to 3200-06 and does not break, you can buy more. If it falls back to 3188-90, you can add more positions, stop loss at 3178, target 3248-3250, and continue to hold if it breaks;
XAUUSD Chart analysis Bullish Scenario – Breakout Above $3,300
Bias: Bullish (Trend Continuation or Breakout Play)
Entry Condition:
Price breaks and closes above $3,300 on the H1 or H4 timeframe.
Ideally accompanied by rising volume and no strong upper wick (shows strength).
Entry Point: Around $3,301–$3,305 after confirmation.
Targets:
🎯 Target 1: $3,320 – Near-term psychological level.
🎯 Target 2: $3,332 – Next resistance zone.
Stop Loss: Below $3,290 (to avoid false breakout pullbacks).
Can scale in more above $3,310 if momentum is strong.
❌ Bearish Scenario – Breakdown From $3,300 or Below Support
Bias: Bearish (Rejection or Breakdown Play)
Entry Condition:
Price fails to hold $3,300 and forms a bearish rejection candle (like a pin bar or engulfing).
OR it breaks below local support around $3,290–$3,285 with follow-through.
Entry Point: Around $3,288–$3,295 after confirmation.
Targets:
🎯 Target 1: $3,180 – Major support level.
🎯 Target 2: $3,170 – Clean round number / extension zone.
Stop Loss: Above $3,310 (invalidates bearish setup if broken).
The price of XAU/USD continues to reach new highsThe threat of tariffs is still spreading further. 🚩 The European Union expects that the US tariffs will persist because the negotiations are progressing very slowly. 🐢 At the same time, officials of the Trump administration have hinted that most of the tariffs imposed on the EU will not be lifted. 😒
These are the two phenomena we are currently observing: 👉
The yield of US Treasury bonds is rising, which is a typical sign of panic sentiment. 😨 This is because maturing debts need to face the situations of rolling over or being repurchased. But under the current circumstances, it is obviously impossible without higher interest rates. If the yield of US Treasury bonds continues to rise, what can be used to make up for the interest gap? 🤷♂️
The credit system of the US dollar is further weakened. Then, the natural substitute and hedging product is gold. 🌼 The flow of funds is just like what propelled the cryptocurrency market last year. Gold continues to have great room and possibility for a significant upward movement. 📈

Gold Price at a Crossroads: Awaiting the Next MoveCurrently, I foresee two possible scenarios for XAUUSD. In the more optimistic scenario (black label), the recent correction is assumed to be wave ii of wave (v), which suggests that XAUUSD still has the potential to strengthen toward the 3,177–3,306.
However, attention should also be given to the bearish scenario (red label). If XAUUSD fails to break above the 3,167 resistance level, it is likely that wave 3 has already been completed, and the current movement is part of wave 4. In this case, XAUUSD may decline toward the 2,489–2,832.
Gold XAUUSD Possible Intraday Move 16.04.2025🟡 XAUUSD (Gold) Price Action Analysis – April 16, 2025
This setup is based on simple and pure price action—nothing fancy, just clean structure, breakout behavior, and the well-settled $25 range principle when Gold is out of consolidation.
✅ Buy Signal Zones (Based on Pure Price Action)
📍 Buy Zone 1: $3,270 – $3,275
Potential retest of the previous minor structure.
Buy on bullish reaction or rejection.
📍 Buy Zone 2: $3,240 – $3,245
Strong support aligning with 50% Fibonacci.
Previous resistance turned support—perfect for deeper pullbacks.
📍 Buy Scenario 3: No pullback, direct continuation
Buy on strong breakout above $3,299 targeting $3,325.
This aligns with the $25 range principle—a settled rule when Gold breaks out of range.
🎯 Target: $3,325
Pure price action logic: From the current structure, the next clean target lies at $3,325, exactly one $25 block higher.
📝 Summary:
✅ Buy from $3,270–75 or $3,240–45, with confirmation.
✅ Buy on breakout above $3,299 targeting $3,325.

The risk-averse frenzy has triggered a massive explosion of gold
📌 Driving Event
The US government's tariffs and rare earths have doubled, highlighting the safe-haven properties of gold.
The Trump administration has recently launched national security investigations into semiconductors, pharmaceuticals and other fields, indicating that the second wave of tariff wars is imminent. Former US Treasury Secretary Yellen bluntly stated that this "self-harming" tariff policy not only fails to achieve the return of manufacturing, but may lead to a break in the global supply chain and push up inflationary pressure. The market's expectations for "stagflation" in the US economy have increased, and gold, as a dual tool for anti-inflation and risk aversion, has significantly increased its appeal.
📊Comment Analysis
At present, gold has basically rushed to the sky. In April, you can basically see the fluctuation range of gold within 70-100 points every day. In this market, you say that fixed points are sometimes really fleeting, and the optimistic resistance is like paper that can be broken at the touch of a button. So is gold really going to the sky? Labaron can only say that under such favorable conditions, it is really hard to see gold fall!
💰Strategy Package
Long position:
Gold is long near 3310, defend near 3290 area, and the target is 3330-37

Gold Dips From PRZ – Will Supports Hold for New ATH?Gold ( OANDA:XAUUSD ) started to correct again from the Potential Reversal Zone(PRZ) and near the Resistance lines . The question is, can Gold create a new All-Time High(ATH) again?
In terms of Elliott waves , Gold appears to be completing a main wave 4 . This main wave 4 is likely to complete near the Support lines and Support zone($3,168-$3,133) .
I expect Gold to either rise again after breaking the Resistance zone($3,220-$3,211) or near the Support zone($3,168-$3,133) and Support lines .
Do you think Gold can create a new All-Time High(ATH) again?
Note: If Gold breaks the Support zone($3,168-$3,133), we should expect a further correction from Gold.

Gold's bullish trend remains unchanged!Gold prices continue to perform strongly and hit new highs. All moving averages are in a bullish pattern, and the bullish outlook is good. If there is a pullback, it is also an opportunity to enter the market. Pay attention to the 3292-3288 area and 3278. If it stabilizes on dips, it will continue to rise. The target is 3317, and the breakthrough is 3329.
Gold bullish trend remains unchangedIn the short term, if the price goes up, the support level of 3278 will continue to rise. If the market goes up in the morning and continues to rise, there will be a second pull-up. At this time, is treated as a trap to lure the market into the market. The first support below is 3292-3288, which is the support near the 10-day moving average and the low point of the sharp drop in the European session. The strong support is the confirmation point of the upper rail of the blue channel at 3278. It is temporarily not visible below. Combined with the segmentation of 3266-3317, the resonance of these two supports can be found. Therefore, pay attention to the 3292-3288 area and 3278, and continue to rise if they stabilize on dips, with the target at 3317 and the 3329 line if they break through.
Will gold rise or fall today?At the hourly gold line level, there were some negative news over the weekend. Today's opening gapped down to 3209, which was also the starting point of last Friday. Since the previous period was a strong trend, it is easy to fill the gap if it opens low first. It can continue to test the key channel upper track in the chart. Finally, it is in line with the prediction that 3245 will be in place as expected. Here, it is suggested to suppress and then look for a decline. Pay attention to the support above 3200 for buying on dips. The channel counter-pressure point moves up to 3247-3250. If it still cannot be suppressed here, it will fall back on highs and treat it as a high-level consolidation. If 3200 cannot be maintained, pay attention to the stabilization of the support near the daily average line of 3180-3150.
Gold rose by 100 points to a new highAs the former US Treasury Secretary pointed out, the Trump administration's erratic rhetoric and ever-changing tariff policy measures are gradually eroding the global market's trust in the US dollar. Investors are therefore seeking asset allocations with safe-haven properties. Gold, as a traditional safe-haven tool, naturally becomes the first choice. From the perspective of technical analysis, the bullish trend of gold prices is strong. After the opening, it has shown a unilateral upward trend, with significant intraday gains. In this market situation, it is particularly important to follow the price trend, and counter-trend operations often face greater risks. Based on the current market trend, the gold bull market is still expected to continue, and may even further hit higher points. In terms of trading operations, it is recommended to take a dip and buy more after a pullback to the key support level as the main strategy.
Today, gold rose to a new high, reaching 3317, and the increase was close to 100 points. The strength is beyond words. After the previous sideways accumulation, it continued to rise by inertia. It continued to be bullish and long. In the 4H cycle, it broke through the upper track of Bollinger, driving the moving average to turn upward, but the indicators diverged. It is prudent to buy more on the decline. The support below is maintained at 3288 and 3270. Buy more according to the strength of the decline. The upper side will gradually look to 3300 and 3320. Don't blindly guess the top!
Operation strategy:
1. It is recommended to buy more gold near 3270-72, stop loss at 3264, and target at 3300 and 3320! If it is very strong, rely on the support of 3288-90!
Will gold rise again?Gold rose during the day and broke through a new high, reaching 3317, which is close to a hundred points. The strength is beyond words. After the previous sideways accumulation, it continued to rise by inertia. It continued to be bullish and long. In the hourly cycle, it broke through the upper track of Bollinger, driving the moving average to turn upward, but the indicators diverged. It is safer to fall back and go long. The support below is maintained at 3288 and 3270. Go long according to the strength of the fall. The upper side will gradually look to 3300 and 3320. Don't blindly guess the top! Operation suggestion: Gold is long near 3270-72, stop loss at 3264, and look at 3300 and 3320! If it is very strong, rely on the support of 3288-90 to go long!
Gold bulls are on full fire!Gold prices rose sharply after correction. Stimulated by the global trade war caused by tariffs, gold prices have maintained a strong posture and continued to rise. If the market breaks through the previous high, the resistance level of the previous high of 3245 will be converted into a short-term support level to continue to see if 3298 can be reached. The main idea is to wait for the retracement below to touch around 3255 to go long, stop loss at 3245, and target point 3275; after breaking the position, wait for the retracement to 3268 to continue to go long and bullish, and look at the position of 3298; if it fluctuates above 3252 during the day, it is recommended to go long directly.
Gold fluctuates at high levels and is under pressure to adjust!Gold's 1-hour moving average has begun to turn gradually, and the bullish force has begun to weaken. It may continue to adjust in the short term. The 1-hour short-term double top structure, the rebound did not continue to set a new high, and the rebound began to fall under the pressure of 3232. The trend of the small-level cycle maintains a slightly stronger trend along the short-term moving average. Pay attention to the short-term adjustment. It is still mainly short-selling on the rebound, and it is still maintained near 3227-30 to participate in short orders. It is expected that gold will continue to adjust in the future, and 3200 is likely to be broken. On the whole, it is recommended to mainly short-sell on the rebound, and to buy on the callback as a supplement. The short-term focus on the upper side is 3230-3232. The short-term focus on the lower side is 3200-3210. Gold operation strategy reference: Strategy 1: Short (buy short) two-tenths of the position in batches near 3227-3230 of gold rebound, stop loss 6 points, target near 3215-3210, break to see 3200 line;
