Daily chart MACD double lines upwardThis week, the market focused on three core events, namely, the direction of Trump's tariff policy, the progress of the US-Iran nuclear negotiations, and the trend of the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision. Based on the evolution of these events, it is recommended that everyone should pay close attention to the trend of the US dollar. As for the performance of gold this week, we continue with our consistent views and adhere to the strategy of bullish but not guessing the top. The specific trading strategy is to wait for a callback before arranging long orders. Once there is an adjustment opportunity, we can go long on the bullish trend.
From the analysis of the 4-hour chart, the lower support is near the 3385-3393 line, and the upper pressure is around the 3440-44 line. Given that the current price is at a historical high, it is recommended to be cautious in chasing orders and wait patiently for sufficient adjustments before entering the market.
Operation strategy:
Gold is recommended to go long at the 3385-93 line, with a stop loss at 3378, and the target is the 3435-3440 line. If it breaks, continue to hold;

Gold opened higher this week with great momentumInterpretation of the news: U.S. President Trump’s extensive tariffs and uncertainty about his trade policy have disrupted global markets and dimmed the global economic outlook. This has prompted investors to withdraw from US assets. In addition, Trump's criticism of Federal Reserve Chairman Powell last week pushed the US dollar index to a low in more than three years, making gold denominated in US dollars more price-competitive for overseas buyers. I believe that the recent rapid rise in gold prices is mainly driven by three aspects: concerns about the global trade war, a weaker US dollar, and risk aversion caused by the high uncertainty of Trump's policies.
Analysis of gold trend: The current trend of gold is non-technical, that is, hedging due to tariff conflicts. With the escalation of tariffs, gold continues to be abnormally strong. With a slight easing, gold will also fall back quickly. Although there was no major fundamental event last weekend, the overall market sentiment is dominated by gold mainstream hedging, and potential concerns about the US debt crisis and the credibility of the US dollar continue! Last week, gold adjusted in the short term, falling directly from above 3350 to 3284, and then quickly rebounded due to the influence of fundamentals, which basically met the expectations of the day, but from the closing point of view, the weekly line closed with a large positive line with an upper shadow slightly longer than the lower shadow, and after such a pattern ended, gold is expected to continue to hit a new high at the beginning of this week.
The Dual Crisis of the US Dollar and US DebtGold has been strong recently, and both technical and fundamental factors show that bulls are in a dominant position. Although there is no clear reversal signal at the daily level of gold, the high-level pullback is more like a normal adjustment in the rising process rather than a trend reversal. We still need to remain vigilant and pay close attention to market dynamics, especially the risk of high-level reversal. At present, the upper resistance is 3485-3490, and the lower support is 3444-3440. In terms of operation, I suggest shorting on rebounds and long on pullbacks. Once the market direction changes suddenly, it is particularly important to withdraw in time and avoid risks.
Operation strategy 1: It is recommended to go short at 3465-3470 on the rebound, stop loss at 3480, and the target is 3445-3430.
Operation strategy 2: It is recommended to go long at 3430-3425 on the pullback, stop loss at 3417, and the target is 3450-3480, and the target is 3500 if it breaks through.
Will gold continue to rise after the correction?At present, the short-term support of 4 hours is at 3442 of the 5-day moving average. If the extremely strong pattern falls back to 3442, it will be more. Further support is near the early high of 3435, which is also the support level for falling back and long positions. At the same time, it is also near the middle track of the hourly level, and the maximum support level for falling back at the hourly level. The intraday watershed is the early low of 3412. If it is broken, the market will turn weak. From the perspective of time, gold will rise in the Asian session, and there will be a second high in the European session. Focus on the strength of the European session to layout the US session. Today, gold will rise to $3,500, and the expected rise this year is $4,200-4,700. On the whole, today's short-term operation of gold suggests that callbacks should be the main focus, and rebound shorts should be supplemented. The top short-term focus is on the first-line resistance of 3500-3530, and the bottom short-term focus is on the first-line support of 3410-3440. All friends must keep up with the rhythm.
Short order strategy:
Strategy 1: Short 20% of the gold position in batches when it rebounds to around 3500-3503, stop loss 6 points, target around 3470-3450, and look at the 3440 line if it breaks;
Long order strategy:
Strategy 2: Long 20% of the gold position in batches when it pulls back to around 3440-3443, stop loss 6 points, target around 3475-3495, and look at the 3500 line if it breaks;
Trump and Powell's "power showdown" ignites global risk aversion
📌 Driving events
On Tuesday (April 22), gold prices soared and set a new record high. Spot gold once hit the $3,500 mark, an increase of about 2.2%. US President Trump criticized Federal Reserve Chairman Powell for worrying the market, suppressing risk appetite and pushing investors to turn to safe-haven gold. After hitting the 3,500 mark, the price of gold fell slightly. Spot gold is currently trading at nearly $3,478.55 per ounce.
📊Comment analysis
KCM Trade Chief Market Analyst Tim Waterer pointed out that under the double blow of tariff concerns and the Trump-Powell farce, investors are fleeing US assets across the board. The continued weakness of the US dollar has created an excellent opportunity for gold to rise.
On Monday, Trump made a tough statement, asking the Federal Reserve to "cut interest rates immediately" otherwise the US economy will face the risk of slowing down. Powell insisted last week that interest rates should not be easily adjusted until the impact of Trump's tariff policy on inflation becomes clear.

Place long orders after the adjustment is over!After gold accelerated its rise in the Asian session, it fell back in the European session and temporarily entered an adjustment cycle, accumulating strength to provide power for the next round of launch. The short-term support in the US session is 3430 and 3412. In terms of operation, go long according to the strength of the decline. There is still no guess on the top, and gradually look to 3480 and 3500! Short-term volatility has increased, and the notice has been issued before the market!
Operation suggestion: Gold is long near 3410-15, and look at 3445 and 3455!
Gold's retracement is an opportunity to go longStay long and don't relax. Continue to buy gold when it falls back!
The gold market has fluctuated violently recently, with a rise of $100 and a fall of $90, which has brought great obstacles to our trading. Long and short positions with bad entry positions will be washed out, so we need to wait patiently for opportunities in operation. The strong market remains unchanged. Continue to buy when it falls back. Find the watershed position to participate in the transaction. It is better to miss it than to be too aggressive. In the Asian session, I will share with you the support of the 3405/3410 watershed of gold. I will rely on this position to buy when it falls back. Gold hit a high of 3499 during the day, which is one step away from 3500. The European and American sessions fell back by $90, which just happened to fall back to the watershed position shared with you in the Asian session. The long orders have also been realized at the target position. Friends who have participated should pay attention to protecting profits, and friends who are short should wait patiently for opportunities and not be too aggressive!
XAUUSD/GOLD Intraday Move 22-04-2025📊 XAUUSD Trade Setup – April 22, 2025
Analysis: Price is currently in a corrective bearish move after a strong bullish rally. We're seeing clear signs of a potential bullish reaction around key support zones. Two major demand zones are identified:
Zone 1: 3430 – 3435
Zone 2: 3405 – 3410
These zones align with previous consolidation areas and coincide with the lower Bollinger Band, increasing the probability of a bounce.
Expected Price Action:
A potential drop into the 3430–3435 zone may trigger a bullish reaction.
If this level fails to hold, the second strong buy zone lies between 3405–3410.
From either zone, a reversal and bullish continuation towards the 3460–3475 region is expected.

The pullback and adjustment encounter resistance.Today, gold opened with a direct rebound and rally. As of now, after gold reached a high of around 3,500 at its peak, it started to pull back and adjust. This also confirms what we said earlier that gold was aiming for the level around 3,500. I have repeatedly emphasized that one should not chase long positions at high levels. Taking long positions near 3,450 after a pullback is a more stable and secure approach. Moreover, today I also assisted many friends who contacted me in successfully unwinding their long positions at high levels. Right after the positions were unwound, gold began its pullback journey, reaching a low of around 3,443. In our actual trading, we entered long positions at around 3,448-3,450. We perfectly made a profit of ten US dollars and exited the positions. We will continue to focus on taking long positions after pullbacks. Try to avoid contrarian operations and chasing long positions at high levels as much as possible. Otherwise, the market will teach those who are not convinced a lesson.

The bull market is extremely strong! Keep the rhythm right!Analysis of gold trend:
On Tuesday (April 22) in the Asian session, spot gold continued to rise. Fundamentally, on Monday, as Trump's comments on Powell damaged investors' confidence in US assets, the US dollar index plummeted to its lowest level since March 2022. The United States plans to impose new tariffs on solar products imported from four Southeast Asian countries. Trump's approval rating has dropped to the lowest level since returning to the White House. The market's risk aversion has increased, and gold prices have strengthened significantly. At present, global trade tensions will continue, and concerns about economic growth and inflation expectations will continue to support gold prices.
After rising to around $3,430 at the beginning of the week, the price of gold retreated slightly to around $3,406. Before the close, it was more of a shock operation at the high of the day. Including the idea given before the break at the beginning of the week, the price of gold will continue to break new highs on Tuesday. But it was not expected that the price of gold would rise to around $3,500 during the Asian session, which was indeed a bit unexpected. At the end of the Asian session, the price of gold retreated, retreating to around $3,461. This retracement came relatively late, breaking the normal operation system. Today, it is recommended to refer to the suppression range near 3490 US dollars and 3500 US dollars for shorting. If it breaks above, refer to the daily error band indicator near 3510 US dollars for shorting. If it breaks below, refer to the support near 3455 US dollars and 3444 US dollars for longing. If it breaks below, look at the 3437-3390 US dollars range for high selling and low selling.
The ultimate safe-haven gold price will not fall! Keep bullish!Remember that gold is currently the ultimate safe-haven asset. Any pullback is actually an opportunity for you to get on board. Before the current trade war eases, gold is still the most favored asset in the market. A year ago, people thought that it was not outrageous for gold to rise to $5,000 by 2030; now, this prediction has become "conservative".
Fundamentally, this is because the current rise in gold is a performance as a "monetary asset" rather than a "commodity asset". This redefinition of gold's "identity" - especially under the catalysis of major events in the past few weeks - has also triggered people's deep thinking about the future role of gold in the international monetary system. It may be moving towards a new positioning: the ultimate safe-haven asset.
The current retracement of gold has given you an opportunity, so don’t hesitate to enter the market directly at 3440-3450 for long orders, and buy directly at 3455-60 radically, and continue to watch the upward break to new historical highs!
Gold is rising step by step, and the 3500 mark is in danger
📌 Driving events
Geopolitical conflicts are escalating (such as the deterioration of the situation in the Middle East)
US CPI data is lower than expected (85% year-on-year)
📊 Comments and analysis
Although gold has experienced a correction, the price of gold has quickly risen strongly, and the positive fundamentals have pushed the market to set new historical highs. As of the end of the Asian market, today's gold trend is almost a replica of yesterday (the gold price continued to rise from the Asian market to the US market on Monday).
What is a bull market? It is to break the cognition of most people, and the rise makes people doubt their lives. Not seeing it does not mean that it does not exist. Empiricists are destined to be eliminated. The underlying logic of the rise in gold during the financial crisis in 2008 and the rise in gold this year has long changed.

Gold trading ideas for todayHello everyone. Let's discuss the trend of gold this week. It can be seen that gold has retreated to around 3452, and 3452 is also the support position of the AM10 moving average.
The next operation is actually very simple. If gold stabilizes at 3445-3430, it should continue to buy.
If it falls below 3430, then you need to wait for around 3400 to buy.
There is no need to look too far for the upper target price. Continue to look at the high point of 3500, or even the new high of 3520.
Gold bulls are unstoppableGold is now too strong, and the rise is not going to end. It continues to rise. Before the gold daily line reverses at a high level, the decline is just an adjustment, not a reversal. However, everyone should also pay attention to the reversal of the high level of the market at any time. Once the situation is not right, you must withdraw in time. With such a violent rise, if the market reverses next, it will also be very rapid.
Go long gold 3460-70, target 3495-3500.
Gold's short squeeze continues, and the rally is unstoppable!On Monday, the dollar index plunged to its lowest level since March 2022 as Trump's blast of Powell hurt investor confidence in U.S. assets.
Thanks to the weakening dollar and the inflow of safe-haven funds, spot gold opened higher and rose, breaking through the $3,430/ounce mark during the session, setting a new record high and rising by more than $100 during the day.
Today, Tuesday, gold continued to rise, and so far the highest has reached near the 3,500 mark.
From the hourly chart here: it can be seen that gold has just retreated to around 3,460, and 3,460 is also the support position of the am10 moving average.
If the 3,460 moving average cannot be broken here, then gold will continue to test 3,500, or even continue to set new highs.
On the contrary, if it falls below the ma10 moving average at 3,460, it may further touch the ma20 moving average support position near 3,440.
So, the next operation is actually very simple. If gold stabilizes at 3460-70, you should continue to go long.
If it falls below 3460, you need to wait for 3440 to go long.
There is no need to look too far for the upper target. Continue to look at the high point of 3500, or even the new high of 3520.
Risk aversion drives gold surging wildlyGold opened at $3,332 and closed at $3,424 yesterday, surging $92 throughout the day. The daily K-line formed a large bullish candle with minor upper and lower shadows, marking a nearly 3% gain and demonstrating a strong upward momentum.
Trump criticized Federal Reserve Chair Powell via social media, calling him a "big failure" and demanding immediate rate cuts, which intensified market uncertainty about the Fed's monetary policy and pushed the DXY lower.
The U.S. plan to impose new tariffs on solar products imported from Cambodia, Malaysia and other countries, combined with the long-term uncertainty of its comprehensive tariff policies, has fueled global risk aversion. Investors are withdrawing from U.S. dollar assets and turning to gold for hedging, serving as the core driver behind the sharp gold rally.
Overall, gold maintains a bullish trend in the long, medium and short terms, but short-term overbought correction risks need to be watched out for in technicals. It is recommended to focus on buying on dips, paying close attention to the retracement confirmation opportunity at the short-term support level of $3,440. Meanwhile, set reasonable take-profit and stop-loss levels to avoid volatility risks from chasing highs.

New peak of $3,520! Waiting for gold price to reach.
New peak of $3,520! Six major events this week detonated gold prices, waiting for gold prices to hit
📌 Driving events
1. Geopolitical black swans fly frequently
The tariff war between China, the United States and Europe has escalated comprehensively. The United States has imposed a 104% tariff on China (involving rare earths, semiconductors and other fields), and the European Union has implemented a 21 billion euro retaliatory tariff. The World Bank predicts that global GDP growth may fall by 1.8%. The situation in the Middle East continues to deteriorate. After the breakdown of the US-Iran nuclear negotiations, Israel launched an air strike on Iran's nuclear facilities, pushing gold to rise by more than 3% in a single day. Historical data shows that the average increase in gold during geopolitical crises can reach more than 20%.
2. The Federal Reserve may change its coach
US President Donald Trump once again criticized Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, exacerbating concerns about the independence of the central bank, which has exacerbated uncertainty. Reports that the US government is exploring legal means to remove Powell will only deepen market uneasiness and enhance the attractiveness of gold as a tool to hedge policy and economic instability risks.
3. Global central bank gold purchases hit a record high
In 2024, global central bank gold reserves reached 4,974 tons, and China increased its holdings to 73.7 million ounces for 20 consecutive months (accounting for 4.9%). From January to April 2025, the central bank's net gold purchases exceeded 420 tons, accounting for more than 25% of the annual demand. After China's insurance funds enter the market, it is expected that 255 tons of new demand will be added each year.
4. Gold ETF funds are pouring in
In the first quarter, global gold ETF funds inflow exceeded US$5 billion, and SPDR's daily inflow reached 226.5 tons (a three-year high). The asset management scale of domestic gold ETFs exceeded 101 billion yuan, and the holdings increased to 138 tons. The holdings of post-00 investors surged by 300%.
5. Inflation and stagflation expectations are rising
The US CPI rose 3.5% year-on-year in March, and the core PCE price index hit a 32-year high. The risk of economic "stagflation" strengthened the anti-inflation properties of gold. Citigroup's model shows that if inflation is higher than 3% for a long time, the probability of gold price breaking through $3,500 is over 60%.
6. Technical breakthrough triggers resonance
After spot gold broke through the key resistance level of $3,250, it triggered programmatic buying, and speculative long positions accounted for 67%. COMEX gold futures open interest surged 18%, and the premium of the main Shanghai gold contract expanded to 5 yuan/gram, reflecting the strong bullish sentiment in the market.

Gold is continuously making historyToday, gold has reached a new high again, reaching 3,430 points at its peak. As for the current trend of gold, it is no longer technical. It is all about the safe - haven demand due to the tariff conflict. When the tariff issue escalates, gold prices will continue to rise. If the situation eases slightly, gold prices will also fall rapidly.
Next, maintain the strategy of going long on pullbacks, refuse to guess the top, and reduce trading risks.
