XAU/USD: Accumulating Strength and Awaiting a BreakthroughFrom the perspective of intraday trading rhythm, gold has continued its recent pattern. It rose sharply in the morning and then declined, fluctuated during the European trading session, and stabilized and surged during the US trading session. Based on this rhythm, today we can mainly focus on the effectiveness of the support level at $3,300. If this support level can still hold after the fluctuations in the European trading session and the price stabilizes at this level during the US trading session, one can consider going long on dips. As the consolidation period continues to lengthen and the trading range keeps shrinking, it indicates that the market is about to break the current volatile pattern. After the impact of Trump's tariff policies gradually fades away, the market is re-pricing gold, and it is inevitable that the trend will be erratic during this process.
Regarding the subsequent trend, we should focus on how gold tests the resistance levels above. Once it breaks through $3,330 and even further breaks through $3,352, it will signal that the bottom structure is becoming more stable. The current repeated fluctuations are actually about constructing a new upward support platform, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent upward trend.
Overall, there is no need to be overly concerned about the short-term fluctuations, as the overall upward rhythm of gold has not changed. Investors can closely monitor the breakthrough of key levels and seize trading opportunities.

Gold moves sideways ahead of US GDP news. What's next?OANDA:XAUUSD Optimism about US trade talks with major partners boosted risk appetite and supported the dollar. The US Treasury released a report that talks with India made good progress, while President Trump softened his rhetoric on China, which also boosted the dollar. Meanwhile, traders are on the sidelines ahead of the release of US first quarter GDP data. If the data is weak, gold as a safe haven asset may rise sharply. Therefore, the gold market remains sensitive to trade news and macro data, especially in the context of market rebalancing at the end of April.
Currently, as part of the current momentum and correction, Quaid expects gold prices to rise from the 0.5-0.7 Fibonacci area. Gold prices may test 3325-3330 in the consolidation range and then resume the correction.
Resistance: 3325, 3350, 3370
Support: 3290, 3270
Traders please wait for the resolution of the tariff dispute and the economic data to be released tomorrow. However, during price consolidation, Quaid expects the price to bounce off the support levels. If the price continues to squeeze towards any boundary, giving priority to the support level, the possibility of breaking out of the consolidation bottom may increase.
4/29 Gold Trading SignalsThe buy orders initiated around 3273 yesterday have already delivered solid profits.
After a slight rally at today’s opening, gold prices have pulled back.
Currently, the candlestick formation shows no clear directional trend, while some short-term technical indicators are pointing downward.
Before any corrective signals appear, we need to closely watch the support near 3306.
As long as this level holds, the short-term bullish momentum still has a chance to continue.
On the news side, today's scheduled data releases are of minor impact.
Focus instead on developments regarding the India-Pakistan situation and US Treasury Secretary Bessent’s press conference.
If geopolitical tensions escalate, gold may break out to new highs.

Buy within 3258-3223 zone
Flexibly trade between 3346-3313 / 3378-3336 / 3273-3316 zones

XAUUSD:Reference for today's trading strategyYesterday, gold opened at $3,331 and trended downward unidirectionally until it rebounded strongly after hitting the key support around $3,260. The upward momentum continued at night, surging to $3,353 and then pulling back slightly, closing at $3,343. This morning, it opened flat at $3,343, quickly came under pressure, and entered a deep correction. Now it's fluctuating narrowly around $3,310 with bulls and bears in a stalemate.
From a comprehensive analysis of technicals and market sentiment, though bulls are active and have the momentum to challenge the $3,370 resistance, due to the upcoming NFP data, market wait-and-see sentiment is strong and volatility has increased notably. Historical data shows gold prices often fluctuate sharply before major economic data releases to digest risks in advance.
Considering the current K-line pattern and volume changes, it's likely that gold will experience a deep correction and retest the $3,260 support before breaking through the $3,370 resistance. This "accumulating strength through correction" can relieve profit-taking pressure and build up momentum for a future breakout.
Given the increased market uncertainties, today's trading strategy suggests being cautiously bullish and strictly controlling risks. Investors should set stop-losses rigorously to guard against sudden sharp fluctuations before the NFP release. Also, avoid aggressive bottom-fishing, closely monitor the market, and wait for price stabilization or clear technical signals before entering the market.

XAUUSD LONG SIGNALUnder current market conditions, the area near 3315.25 has been identified as a critical support zone, where the AI model detects a high-probability trade setup.
From a technical perspective, a clear directional bias based on recent price action patterns. Suppose the market demonstrates increased volume and price stability above key moving averages in the 3315.25 area. In that case, traders are advised to monitor for trend-continuation entry opportunities in alignment with the prevailing momentum.
Profit targets are defined at 3352.88 and 3401.74, corresponding to logical technical resistance zones. These levels are designed for staged profit-taking across different trade management styles. Stop-loss should be strictly enforced at the designated level; once breached, the strategy is considered invalidated in order to limit potential downside.
Gold's counterattack? Today's market analysisGold has repeatedly tested the 3260-3270 area to gain support. Gold has formed multiple bottom structures in the short term, so the short-term adjustment of gold may end.
Gold has formed multiple bottom structures in the 1-hour, and the 1-hour moving average has also begun to gradually turn. If it can turn upward and form a golden cross, then the 1-hour bulls of gold will exert their strength again. Stimulated by risk aversion, gold in the U.S. market once again broke through and rose, and finally broke through Monday's high. Then the first-line suppression of gold near 3335 did not form effective resistance. When gold fell back in the Asian market, we first followed the trend and went long. Gold quickly bottomed out at 3320 first-line support in early trading and then rebounded quickly. Then gold should only be operated in the short term or go long on dips.
Operation ideas:
Short-term long: 3310-3315 long, stop loss 3300, target 3350-3370;
Short-term short: 3350-3360 short, stop loss 3365, target, 3315-3310;
Friends, don’t be afraid of missing the market, wait patiently for your own opportunity, the market will never neglect those who are prepared.

XAUUSD: Massive Volatility, Weak Support at 3270!Last week was extremely volatile for Gold, with incredible swings that caught many traders off-guard. After reaching a new all-time high at 3500, the price dropped by more than 2000 pips in less than 24 hours!
After this crash, the market settled somewhat, and towards the end of the week, Gold established a strong ceiling around 3370 – exactly as we discussed in last week's analysis.
The key question now: Is the correction over or is there more downside coming?
At the same time, we can clearly observe a floor around 3270, a level that Gold is testing again at the time of writing.
Here’s why I believe the correction is not over yet:
- Price action remains vulnerable below 3370 resistance.
- The support at 3270 looks fragile, with pressure building for a break.
- Market volatility is still extremely high, favoring continuation moves.
Trading Plan:
I am looking to sell rallies above 3300, aiming for a target around 3200.
Due to the recent wild volatility, I will adjust my stop losses accordingly, allowing enough room for noise without exposing the position to unnecessary risk.

Gold is trying to break through the upward channelGold started the new week on a bad note, hitting a low of 3260 in the morning, followed by a small shock adjustment; then it began to rise sharply. As of press time, it has risen to around 3350 and tried to break through the upward resistance.
Although some of gold's safe-haven appeal has weakened, its overall forecast and price trend remain optimistic. Until we see clear lower highs, lower lows, and a solid trade agreement rather than more political bragging from the Trump administration, the possibility of gold setting new highs cannot be underestimated.
Surface calm hides potential risks
Although last week's market movements and today's early trading performance show that the market is calming down, any sense of security is fragile. Under the surface, key risks remain: trade tensions, recession concerns, and uncertainty about monetary policy are real. Ongoing trade negotiations remain a key factor. If the United States sticks to its position on tariffs or the negotiations break down, risk aversion may quickly pick up, boosting demand for gold again.
Quaid's analysis:
Based on last week's market situation, Quaid conducted an analysis of gold's trend this week over the weekend. As I predicted, gold is trying to break through and try a new high.
Gold has risen to around 3350, and 3365 is a key resistance level in the upward trend. If the gold price breaks through this position and can maintain horizontal development, it will continue to rise in a stable situation.
From the upside, the initial resistance level is $3365, followed by $3430. If the bullish momentum is restored, it may soon hit the historical high of $3500 again.
On the contrary, if the price fails to break through the 3365 resistance level, Quaid believes that it is necessary to pay attention to the key support at the 3285 position.
Gold trend picks directionGold fell by 230 USD in a row on the daily line. Currently, 3500 is under short-term pressure. Today, we will focus on the continuity of the decline. It directly rushed from 3288 to 3310 in 5 minutes after opening. Yesterday, it hit the lowest point of 3258 above the 0.5 division of 2956-3500. This position is temporarily supported and rebounded, but whether the adjustment is over is still uncertain. It depends on the intraday closing pattern. If today's closing can stand above the MA5 daily moving average resistance of 3358 again, then there will be signs of the end of the downward adjustment, and the next day must be accompanied by a positive line. Pull up; on the contrary, if it closes below the 5-day MA, then there is a high probability that the 10-day moving average position will continue to decline, and then the 50-division position 3228 is further down, which happens to be the starting point of the big positive on April 16. This is likely to be the end point of this round of adjustment, or there will not be much room to go down, because from the standard wave pattern, it cannot fall below the first wave high, which is 3167, which is also the current middle track; therefore, either 3228 will stabilize on dips, or somewhere in the 3228-3167 area will stabilize, and then finally return to the bullish trend and pull up
The short-term 4-hour middle track 3380 has been lost and has become a key counter-pressure point. As long as it does not stand above it again, it will maintain a downward correction. After breaking 3292 below, the 66-day moving average of 3260 will be the loser or loser; the 1-hour K-line is under pressure from ma10 and ma5 and continues to fall. After yesterday's consolidation and pull-up, the K-line has now re-run above ma10, and the macd has formed a golden cross below the zero axis. This wave of 200 US dollars of rapid decline has almost corrected most of it. If it continues downward for another wave, or with the help of bottom divergence, it will slowly brew a short-term bottom; today's gold rebound focuses on the resistance below 3367, below the extreme middle track of 3380, and it is still bearish if it cannot withstand the pressure. If the strong support of 3260 or 3245-28 is stable, we will start to consider bottom-fishing.
Gold 100% Profit SignalFrom the current 4-hour analysis, the short-term pressure on gold is 3343-50, and the important pressure on 3360-66. The operation is still mainly short-selling if the rebound does not break. Below, we first pay attention to the short-term support of 3310-15, and the important support of 3260-68.
Gold rebounds to 3343-50 line short, rebound to 3360-66 line to cover short, stop loss 3372, target 3310-3315 line, continue to hold if it breaks
Gold Trading Plan: Liquidity Grabs, Pullback, and UptrendHello Ladies and Gentlemen!
Based on recent news and Trump’s turbulence, we are closely following macroeconomics, the ongoing tariff wars, and geopolitical events. Gold is showing signs of exhaustion after last week's pullback. While we see a recovery, we must remember that not everything we see can be trusted. However, based on our analysis of the current situation and an understanding of market execution and liquidity grabs, we expect a pullback that could confirm the uptrend — providing a potential opportunity to go long.
Here’s the plan:
1. Double check at the current liquidation level
2. Wait for a pullback around a key level below.
3. Confirm the continuation of the uptrend.
We must carefully monitor each market session and pay close attention to macroeconomic news releases, as the market may react sharply by grabbing liquidity. It will be interesting to see how far we can go from here with liquidity runs and whether additional pullbacks will occur. For now, we remain patient and wait for clear confirmation signals.

Gold market analysis referenceThe recent gold fluctuations are really violent and fast. If you hesitate for a moment, you will basically miss the market. If you are too impatient, you will easily hit the stop loss. Now the fluctuations in a few hours are equivalent to the fluctuations in the past month. The stop loss of 3-5 US dollars can be easily swept. The market is changing, and the corresponding stop loss should also be enlarged.
Gold opened higher and hit 3336 in the morning on Monday, continuing the decline of last week. The idea in the morning was to be bearish directly at the analysis point of 3332. After hitting the lowest point of 3268, it fluctuated upward. The European session also fell to 3273 and then rebounded. The highest point in the US session just reached 3336 again, a standard bottoming and rebounding trend. Since it is an adjustment structure, let's re-analyze the idea. The gold price fell at 3500 and rebounded at 3260 last Wednesday. The rhythm was volatile. It rebounded above 3260 many times below, and did not cross the first rebound high of 3367 above. From a technical point of view, the gold price needs to effectively fall below the 3265-3260 US dollar range in the short term before it can confirm a larger correction downward. Once it is confirmed to fall below, the gold price may quickly fall to the 50% retracement level near 3225 US dollars, further pointing to the 3200 US dollar mark. If it loses 3200 US dollars, it will suggest that gold may have peaked in the short term.
For the current gold, the 4-hour chart is stuck in a wide range of oscillations between 3260-3338, and is currently at the edge of the lower track. Gold has formed a multi-round back-test support area at the 3270 price level. Although the price has touched this level several times, it has not effectively broken down. The bulls have launched a phased counter-attack. In terms of technical form, the double pressure characteristics have appeared near the previous rebound high of 3370. This area has the dual attributes of the second wave rebound target and the right shoulder pressure level of the head and shoulders top pattern. Today, we mainly focus on the closing price. If it stands firmly at the 3336 line, then we will adjust our thinking tomorrow. On the contrary, it encounters resistance at the high point of today's morning session at 3336 and then falls back, and goes to the 3278 line. Tomorrow we will continue to look at the idea of swinging and falling. On the whole, today's short-term operation strategy for gold is recommended to be mainly short-selling on rebounds, supplemented by long-selling on pullbacks. The short-term focus on the upper side is the 3338-3340 line of resistance, and the short-term focus on the lower side is the 3265-3260 line of support.
Strategy 1: When gold rebounds to around 3338-3340, short sell (buy short) in batches, 20% of the position, stop loss 6 points, target around 3300-3280, break to 3270
Strategy 2: When gold falls back to around 3265-3270, buy (buy up) 20% of the position in batches, stop loss 6 points, target around 3300-3320, break the position and look at 3330
Gold 100% Trading StrategyGold prices continued to fluctuate this week. Last Thursday, gold prices stabilized and rebounded near $3,284, and remained strong after breaking through $3,300. During today's Asian session, gold prices repeatedly hit the 3,385 pressure level but failed. After retreating to around 3,369 and gaining support, they rebounded again to around 3,396. The current price faces technical repair needs, but the overall upward trend has not changed, and the probability of breaking through the $3,400 mark is still high. The support level of the retracement is focused on the Asian session low of 3369 US dollars and the 4-hour MA5 moving average of 3360 US dollars. You can arrange long orders on dips; the upper pressure focuses on the 3396-3400 line. After breaking through, you need to be alert to the pressure of the daily error band indicator of 3425-3430 US dollars. At present, you can go short at the rebound of 3395 in the short term. The general trend is still dominated by low and long.
Gold recommendation: Go short near the rebound of 3395-3400, stop loss 3405, target 3370, strict stop loss for large fluctuations
Gold operation: Go long near the retracement of 3370-3375, stop loss 3362, target 3400, strict stop loss for large fluctuations
Gold 100% Profit SignalGold has retreated from $3,500, is the price near a top? Possibly. But I wouldn't sound the alarm bells just yet. This is most likely due to some regular profit-taking. The high indicators are more of a warning than a call to arms. Rather than "get out of here," it's more of a "stay alert."
At present, the initial support below is in the 3405-3400 area. Further down are the two key support levels of 3380 and 3357. 3380 is the support level near the middle track of the 4-hour level, and 3357 is an important top and bottom conversion position in the previous period. These two positions still provide strong support for the future market rise. At present, the 4-hour level high has closed in a bearish pattern of Yin engulfing Yang engulfing, and the K-line is negative. The short-term is expected to improve and fall back. Short-term operations will mainly rebound from high altitudes. Pay attention to the resistance near 3435 and 3450 on the top and do not break the air. Pay attention to the support near 3408-3400 on the bottom. If it breaks, adjust the position and continue to look at 3380.
It is advisable to adopt a short-selling approach.Today, gold opened and rebounded to a maximum of around 3,336 before falling back. As of now, gold has touched the bottom again, with the lowest point reaching around 3,368 before rebounding. In our actual trading, we directly entered a long position at around 3,280 - 3,283. The long position has now been closed with a profit at around 3,394. Currently, although the price of gold has rebounded after hitting the bottom, everyone should not think that this rebound means a change in the trend. The overall trend is still to take short positions on rebounds

#XAUUSD:From Our Last Analysis 534+ Pips What Next?We published our analysis on gold on April 24th, highlighting the bullish market presence. The price indeed reversed from our zone, enabling us to make a significant move of over 234 pips. We anticipate a continuous price increase from our entry zone, potentially reaching 3500$. There are several reasons behind this belief. Firstly, the escalating war-like tension between India and Pakistan could lead to a surge in gold prices, potentially surpassing the previous high. Secondly, the heightened tensions among global investors are expected to result in an extreme bullish movement in gold prices.
Given the volatility of gold, we recommend trading cautiously and taking extra precautions while trading gold.
Wishing you good luck and safe trading!
