GOLD → The market is waiting for the news. What could happen?FX:XAUUSD in consolidation ahead of the news. The price after strong sell-offs is accumulating potential, traders are not doing anything yet, at the same time the dollar is breaking trend support. Stalemate situation. A consolidation range is marked on the main chart. It is acceptable to trade from the boundaries of the range either breakout or false breakdown. The complexity of the overall situation is that the news is an unpredictable part of trading. On the technical side: Gold is weak, there is no strong buyer in the market yet (Maybe they are waiting for news). But based on TA, I would see the market as preparing for a break of 2325 followed by a fall to 2300-2275. Fundamentally, the US still has high inflation and the regulators will not let the dollar fall much. DXY is breaking the upside support (which is supposedly a downside signal) but it still has not reached the support and liquidity zone, which is also a sign of a strong index. Resistance levels: 2341, 2351 Support levels: 2325, 2315 Based on the technical behavior of the gold price, a break of 2325 and consolidation of the price below this area will provoke sales. Breakout of 2345-2350 will provoke buying. The situation is complicated by the upcoming news. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → Consolidation before NFP. What to prepare for?FX:XAUUSD is strengthening after a false breakdown of range support and is testing resistance with a subsequent bounce. Price is forming a flat and is not ready to go up or down yet. There are reasons for this: Traders are waiting for news that will start to be released in the second half of this week starting Wednesday. The focus is on ISM PMI, Initial Jobless Claims, NFP. Accordingly, I would recommend watching the flat for now: 2354 - 2328 (2320). Most likely the price will be inside this consolidation for some time, the dollar is also standing still. Perhaps there will be an attempt to breakout (false breakout) or even a retest of more distant levels, but in general, due to the fact that there are no major players in the game yet, who are not eager for pre-temporal action, the price will consolidate within the specified range. Resistance levels: 2354, 2374 Support levels: 2328, 2322, 2315 A quick approach to the liquidity zone may lead to a rebound or a false breakdown, accordingly, there is a chance to see local strengthening. We are looking at an intra-range trading strategy. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → Correction for liquidity. Should we wait for the fall?FX:XAUUSD has been updating the low to 2314 since the opening of the session and is forming a correction within which it is testing the previously broken consolidation support. The fall may continue from the liquidity area. The fundamental and technical background for gold is negative at the moment. A possible area of interest for the market may be the area of 2305 - 2280. Accordingly, based on the general data, we can assume that a retest of the resistance area 2328-2336 may end in a false breakdown with a subsequent decline to the targets indicated on the chart. There is a possibility of price entry into the range and an attempt to rise to 2354, but in general, it will be regarded as an attempt to gather a more liquid position before reaching a global and promising target. Let me remind you that globally we have a bullish trend, within which a local bearish trend is forming. Resistance levels: 2328, 2336, 2354 Support levels: 2306, 2285 It is worth to keep an eye on the mentioned resistance areas. False breakdown followed by price consolidation below the mentioned zone will be a confirmation of bears' readiness to go down. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → The calm before the storm. 2400 or 2200?FX:XAUUSD reduces volatility and shrinks into a narrow range before the news. US GDP did not play any role and traders are waiting for the general fundamental background. Locally, the downtrend. The trend is downtrending, but on yesterday's news the price is trying to break the channel resistance, forming a consolidation of the price above the line. But if the price returns to the channel, due to the formed consolidation, the market may see a strong momentum towards 2280. Ahead of the news, traders are waiting for PCE. But, the market believes that the index will remain at the same level and this generally complicates the situation because if in fact the situation changes it may trigger a violent reaction Resistance levels: 2354, 2374 Support levels: 2328, 2306 Globally bullish trend, but there is no strong buyer yet. Everyone is waiting for the news. Locally the trend is bearish, to confirm the change of the trend to a local bullish one, the price should overcome the area of 2354 - 2364 and consolidate above, in this case - the way to 2400. But, a break of 2328 will make the market panic Regards R. Linda!

Bitcoin - 300,000 USD by 2025, here is why!There is almost no doubt that Bitcoin will continue in the bull market in 2024/2025. After the ETF approval, Bitcoin is going up as institutional investors gain confidence in this type of investment. But what all people want to know is when to sell Bitcoin and prepare for the next bear market. Bitcoin's bear markets are very devastating, and the usual correction is around 80% - 70% from the peak. That's why it's good to time a good exit point if you are a trader. If you are a hodler, then you probably have your bitcoin in a Trezor hardware wallet and you don't care about volatility, even though it's not nice to see that your portfolio is down by 70%. To determine the exit point, we need to use technical analysis on a weekly/monthly scale. In the chart, you can see price action in recent years and all these swings during previous bear markets. We can draw a massive ascending parallel channel and take a look at the market cycles. Selling at the top of the upward-sloping trendline is definitely a good idea, but will Bitcoin offer this opportunity? Sometimes markets turn bearish just before key levels.  From a time perspective, October or September 2025 seems like the right time to sell Bitcoin and go into fiat or stable coins. Then buy again, cheaper after the crash. The 2021 peak is a strong level, and Bitcoin should never go below this level. I think Bitcoin volatility should decrease, and we should not see tremendous crashes anymore, but a 50% or 60% crash is something that is definitely very likely. Forget about 80% or 90% of the crashes that happened in 2015 or 2018. This chart is a representation of the logarithmic scale. If you switch to a classic linear scale, we get a target for the whole bull market of only around 130,000 USD. I will do a linear scale representation in one of the next analyses, so make sure you follow my account so you don't miss this very important analysis! Let me know what you think about my analysis in the comment section, and please hit boost and follow for more ideas. Trading is not hard if you have a good coach! Thank you, and I wish you successful trades.

Bitcoin - 10% crash is coming, buy at 62k (here's why)Bitcoin is preparing for a pretty significant crash (in June). Why do I think so? We need to look at the previous price action because in May, Bitcoin pumped by 25%. If we take a look at May's price action, we can see that the uptrend created a FVGAP at 62k, and these gaps tend to be filled sooner rather than later. This is, of course, not the only reason why I am bearish.  From the Elliott Wave perspective, Bitcoin finished the first impulse wave (1) and after such move we can expect a corrective ABC pattern because markets always move in waves. In general, a typical retracement for waves (1) is 0.618 FIB and also 0.382 FIB in strong bull markets. The 0.618 FIB overlays perfectly with the mentioned FVGAP, which gives us a pretty solid buying opportunity if the price reaches this level. The next good opportunity is to short Bitcoin on the futures market.  The next reason why I am bearish is this small red trendline. As you can see, the trendline is breaking down, which is, of course, a sign of weakness. This trendline is part of the rising wedge pattern, so it adds to the overall bearishness. Currently, I am bearish, so be careful during the summer as the price action is not the most volatile for Bitcoin during this season. Let me know what you think about my analysis in the comment section, and please hit boost and follow for more ideas. Trading is not hard if you have a good coach! Thank you, and I wish you successful trades.

GOLD → The news will determine the medium-term outlookFX:XAUUSD is updating the low and forming a false break of support. Fundamental and technical background is negative. A quick retest of 2328 may lead to a fall, but there is NEWS ahead! Before the news, gold goes into a local flat 2360 - 2330. The market is gathering potential and liquidity before the news. GDP and Initial Jobless Claims are ahead. This time traders expect an extremely low GDP: 1.6% This is generally negative for the US market, in general this figure is logical based on general market indicators, but traders pay attention to the actual data. It is also worth paying attention to Initial Jobless Claims. Technically, under the current circumstances, a decline is possible after a retest of resistance. But, if the news is contradictory, the price may break the resistance, consolidate above 0.236 Fibo and head towards 0.618 (25-30% probability). Resistance levels: 2343, 2347, 2354 Support levels: 2335, 2328, 2306 The gold market is dominated by bears on the background of general economic conditions. Globally, the trend is still bearish and a correction is forming within it. Today is a purely fundamental day and you should not get into the market before the news. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → Break of the support of consolidation. Next is 2300?FX:XAUUSD is still bearish. The price is trying to leave the corrective range, which is formed after the false breakdown of support. The market is preparing to go lower. On the 1H timeframe it is becoming clear who is showing dominance in the market. There is no strong buy yet, apparently, before the GDP and PCE publication on Thursday and Friday, no one dares to enter the market early. (Presumably, the dollar may get another dose of support, which could weaken gold even more). I think that in the short term the price may retest 2335. Resistance levels: 2354, 2364 Support levels: 2335, 2328, 2306 Consolidation of the price below the previously broken local uptrend support (dotted line), will be a confirmation of the market's intention to go down. A quick retest of 2335 may lead to a break of support and further fall to 2300 Regards R. Linda!

EURUSD → False resistance breakout. Decline to 1.075?EURUSD is testing range resistance and forming a false breakout with further confirmation of the boundary. The bears are strong and are not letting the price beyond 1.0884 yet. On Thursday and Friday strong and important news are published. Traders are interested in US GDP and PCE. There is a high probability to see data that could be bullish for the dollar in the current circumstances. As for EURUSD - trading inside the range may continue. Technically, I am waiting for a bounce from the local trend support and a retest of the resistance before a further decline. Resistance levels: 1.0884, 1.0942 Support levels: 1.0802, 1.0736 False break of resistance is a confirmation that the price is not ready to go up yet. A breakdown of the scenario is possible, if the price breaks through and consolidates above 1.0884, but there are no reasons for that. We expect a breakout of 1.0836 with the purpose of further fall. Regards R. Linda!

EURUSD → A false breakout leads to a correction. 1.080?FX:EURUSD is forming a correction after a false breakdown. The movement is formed after updating the local highs. The fundamental background for the currency pair is positive. The false breakout occurs against the resistance at 1.0885, as well as the rising line limiting the trend. If the fundamental background persists, in this case the correction will not last long and the global bullish movement may start to recover. On H1 it is worth paying attention to the support: 1,080 (liquidity area), which the price may test. This boundary may become the lower zone of the new range, which may confirm the change of trend. Support levels: 1.080, 1.0766, 1.0736 Resistance levels: 1.0884, 1.0942 Technically, a false breakdown of resistance and corrective downward movement is forming. Today there is no strong news and movements can be calm. Regards, R. Linda!

NZDUSD → Trend Change. Consolidation before the impulse FX:NZDUSD is entering the consolidation phase after breaking the local trend resistance. On D1 the price enters a new range and on H1 a golden cross is formed. The dollar is standing still and losing positions since the opening of the session on the background of negative news. This is generally favorable for the currency pair. In this case, a retest of the support of the range forming above the bearish channel is possible with the aim of further growth. The currency pair has a potential and with the breakout of 0.604 the price may start to realize the accumulated potential and strengthen to 0.608 or 0.617. Resistance levels: 0.604 Support levels: 0.600, 0.5983 Most likely trading inside the range may continue. False breakdown of support and further strengthening to resistance is possible, but further price reaction to resistance will show us the readiness of the market to go in one direction or another.

GOLD - Will double in price in a few years! (cup and handle)GOLD is at its all-time high levels and will continue in the price discovery action. Why? On the chart, you can see a cap and handle formation that is currently breaking out on the monthly chart. This is a huge event for gold, and therefore the price can double in a few years from now. Does it mean that we will see a multi-year bull market? Definitely yes. This cup and handle formation is fully confirmed. The monthly candle closed above the neckline of this pattern with a bullish engulfing candle.  How to trade? If you are an investor, simply buy gold and hold, you can expect a pretty good and reliable return in a few years. If you are a swing trader, I recommend trading with the trend and going for buy/long only strategies. Do not short gold on futures, as it will lower the probability of success. And if you are a day trader, also focus on long-only strategies, and you can potentially short GOLD, but only with limit orders that you put above the current price. Avoid trading bearish breakouts, as they tend to take liquidity (stop losses) and reverse.  What is the profit target for gold in 2026 or 2030? There is no historical price action, so to determine our profit targets, we need to use the Fibonacci extension tool and Elliott Wave theory with simple trendlines. On the chart, you see my Fibonacci projection (wave 1 -> wave 2). Usually, the market tends to react to the 1.0 extension, the 1.618 FIB extension, and the 2.0 extension. These are strong levels, but only for a short-term bounce. As my title says, I am expecting a huge bull market, so do not forget to follow my account to stay updated!

GOLD → Consolidation before distribution. $2,400 or $2,300?FX:XAUUSD after a false breakdown of the support of the range is forming a correction, but within the upward consolidation channel. The fundamental background is still negative. There is no strong news in the next two days, so the fundamental background remains the same. There is no strong buyer on the market yet and thus, gold may continue its downward movement if it breaks through the support area: the rising line or the approximate area of 2340. A break of the local uptrending support line will move the market into the realization phase, which will be a continuation of the decline. The structure may be broken if the price rises and consolidates above 2354. In this case, the price may head towards 2374. Resistance levels: 2354, 2358, 2370 Support levels: 2340, 2335, 2325 I expect that with high probability the decline may continue. But in the phase of waiting for strong news (Thursday and Friday), the market may gather liquidity. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → Correction after strong sell-offs. What's next?FX:XAUUSD is trading in the range of 2335-2397. Bulls are trying to keep the price from falling, countering the market in the 2330-2340 area. A rebound may reach local liquidity zones. At the moment the market is bearish but also volatile. Any news could have a strong impact on the dolar and gold. In the mid-term, since after a false break of support a rebound is forming, which is developing within a possible fourth wave, this movement may reach the local liquidity areas 2354, 2368 before a possible further fall. It is worth paying attention to the nearest resistance areas and any market reaction in the form of weakness may give a corresponding reaction - a decline. Resistance levels: 2354, 2368, 2374 Support levels: 2335 Today is a holiday in the USA and the market volatility may be low. A correction is forming, the purpose of which is to collect liquidity. The fall may continue from local reversal zones. Regards R. Linda!

CADCHF → Realization phase. Growth after breakthroughOANDA:CADCHF may continue its growth after confirmation of bulls' intentions. CHF is weakening faster than CAD, which in general will favorably affect the currency pair. We expect the growth to 0.68 The price is breaking the global resistance, as well as moving the consolidation pattern into the realization phase. Consolidation of the price above the previously broken trend boundary will be a great sign that the currency pair is ready to go higher. Fundamentally, the situation is relatively stable, which is generally positive for us. Ahead of resistance 0.6722, the level can be broken after a quick retest. The formation of a bullish impulse is possible. Resistance levels: 0.6722 Support levels: 0.6694, 0.6655 Technically and fundamentally conditions are favorable. We are waiting for confirmation of the signal with the purpose of further growth to the previously mentioned targets. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → There is no big buyer in the market. Moving to 2300?FX:XAUUSD continues to update lows amid a bearish wave based on fundamental (economic) reasons. The market after a pullback may be willing to continue falling. On D1 the outlook and situation is in the hands of bears. There is no big buyer on the market, who could turn the market around (not yet). Accordingly, a correction is forming due to liquidity captured by the false breakdown relative to 2335. Within the counter-trend correction, the price may test the density zone of 2354 before further declines. A pre-breakdown consolidation or a quick retest of 2335 will form the potential for further decline. Resistance levels: 2354, 2374 Support levels: 2335, 2306 False breakdown and stop from 2335 is most likely temporary. Keep an eye on local resistances, a false breakdown could be a motivation for sellers. Regards R. Linda!

GBPUSD → A false breakout draws a pin bar. Sellers are winning FX:GBPUSD is forming a test of the resistance level at 1.271. There is a struggle for the level during the week and apparently the sellers are winning (pinbar is formed and consolidation under the level). Technically, the downtrend was broken earlier, but there was no confirmation of the boundaries and confirmation of the trend change, so the area of 1.271 may become the zero point for the beginning of the correction. The currency pair on the background of fundamentally strong dollar may go down to 1.2664 with the subsequent breakout and fall to 1.257. Overall, the environment is unstable due to high inflation and regulators' decisions. Resistance levels: 1.271, 1.28 Support levels: 1.2664, 1.257 I expect the beginning of correction to the support area, although the bearish channel was broken earlier, but there are no strong bulls in the market yet.

GOLD → The mood has shifted to bearish. A correction?FX:XAUUSD is forming a bearish wave, within which it is declining from 2400 to 2350. The price is testing strong support amid the changing sentiment. Within a bullish trend, after testing the high of 2450, the market catches up with a correction wave based on fundamentals. The market is caught by a wave of sell-offs, which can be continued after a pullback and retest of local areas of liquidity. From 2354 we expect a rebound to the above-mentioned areas and further we should follow the price reaction to the liquidity areas. Initial Jobless Claims and Purchasing Managers' Index are ahead. Traders are neutral towards the dollar, but amid the general policy, the dollar index may get support, which may have a peculiar effect on the gold, until the market finds new reasons to rise. Resistance levels: 2374, 2383, 2397 Support levels: 2354, 2336, 2306 Technically and fundamentally the market is still bullish, but a correction is forming within the uptrend, which may take a little longer.

USDCHF → False breakdown gives bullish momentum ↑FX:USDCHF is forming a false breakdown of range support and uptrend, which opens the market to buy potential. CHF is weakening stronger than the dollar and this could support the uptrend. On D1, the price tested the MA-50 ascending average with a false breakdown, as well as a strong support area at 0.900. Liquidity capture and candlestick set-up form the price reversal and bullish momentum, which, from the point of view of trading inside the range, can lead the price to the upper boundary - 0.9216 Resistance levels: 0.910, 0.915, 0.9216 Support levels: 0.9075, 0.900 A break through the nearest zone 0.910 will accelerate the price strengthening.

BITCOIN → The bulls are ready to break resistance. 71K or 73K?BINANCE:BTCUSD , after a shake-up (False Breakout), relative to the liquidity zone of 59-60K, is forming a bullish impulse, which is also favorably influenced by fundamental reasons On the local timeframe there are signs of the end of the locational correction and the beginning of the formation of the third wave. The bullish trend is starting to revive, but there are quite a few key areas ahead that can hold the level. Yesterday, after the bulls held the defense above 64500-65000, the buyers started to push the price up and tested the resistance 67250 with a false breakdown. There is no fall after the false breakdown, a pre-breakdown consolidation is forming. Bulls are still collecting positions with the breakout target and are ready to go all the way. On W1 the picture is very interesting and this correction has the character of consolidation. Huge volume is being collected from the strong buyer side. The distribution phase that will start after the consolidation is over could continue the bullish trend if the buyers are persistent. Resistance levels: 67250, 71500, 73700 Support levels: 65250, 64500, 61500 Bitcoin looks quite bullish right now. High interest, favorable fundamental background can affect the strengthening of the price.

Bitcoin - Pullback is required, buy again lower!In my previous analysis, I suggested buying cheap Bitcoin at 67k and now the price has gone up to 71k in a single day: What now? Will this pump continue? It's possible, but I am waiting for lower prices because the current pump has created a huge FVGAP on the daily chart. These GAPS tend to be filled sooner rather than later. What's more, the price hit a critical point of resistance that you can see on the chart. We have 2 parallel channels, and the price is currently at this critical point. My suggestion is to wait for lower prices, 68k seems to be a strong support, but also the bottom of the ascending blue parallel channel. Bitcoin is very bullish on the weekly chart, so there is a strong probability of prices above 100K this year. What is my ultimate target for Bitcoin for the whole bull market? I will soon share my special technical analysis on the monthly chart, and you will see a detailed graphic representation of it.
