GOLD → Pressure from sellers. The decline will continueFX:XAUUSD is falling in Asian and European trading, hitting new lows and confirming the downward trend. The reason is the de-escalation of the tariff war... The price of gold fell to $3,250 due to increased risk appetite after positive news from US-China trade talks. Investors are hoping for a quick agreement, reducing demand for gold as a safe-haven asset. However, tensions between India and Pakistan, as well as Russia and Ukraine, continue to support interest in gold and prevent further declines. Market participants are also watching US negotiations with Japan and the EU, where the threat of new tariffs remains. Resistance levels: 3250, 2369 Support levels: 3222, 3193, 3167 GOLD is testing support and forming a false breakdown relative to 3222. There is a possibility of a correction to 0.5 - 0.7 Fibonacci. However, if there is no pullback and the price begins to break support, gold will continue its decline to 3190 - 3170 Best regards, R. Linda!

GOLD Correction Complete - Rally Toward $3,450 AheadOANDA:XAUUSD is trading within a well-defined ascending channel, signaling ongoing bullish momentum. The price has continued to respect the channel structure, printing higher highs and higher lows, a clear sign of an intact uptrend. The recent retracement represents a healthy correction, potentially setting the stage for another bullish leg. Price is now approaching a key support zone, marked by the lower boundary of the channel and a previous demand area. If this zone holds, it may offer a strong re-entry opportunity for buyers. The projected upside target is $3,450, which aligns with both the midline of the ascending channel and a previous resistance level. As long as the price remains above the support zone and the ascending trendline, the bullish scenario remains valid. A break below this level, however, could invalidate the setup and increase the likelihood of a deeper retracement. Always confirm your setups and trade with a proper risk management. Best of luck!

Lingrid | GOLD Accelerating BEARISH Momentum in the MARKETOANDA:XAUUSD recently faced rejection at a lower high within the resistance zone and is now trading beneath a firm downward trendline. After a failed attempt to hold above $3,264, price has dropped sharply, signaling continuation of the bearish momentum that began after the breakout failed to sustain. The downtrend remains intact with sellers eyeing deeper support unless bulls reclaim $3,264 with momentum. 📌 Key Levels Support zone: $3,150 Breakout target: $3,150 Invalidation level: $3,264 (local resistance / trendline retest) ⚠️ Risks Short-term rebounds may test the trendline before continuation False breakdown risk exists near $3,150 without volume support Unexpected bullish reversal above $3,264 would invalidate bearish bias Traders, if you liked this idea or if you have your own opinion about it, write in the comments. I will be glad 👩‍💻

XAU/USD: Gold will fall ? (READ THE CAPTION)By analyzing the gold chart on the 2-hour timeframe, we can see that on Friday, after the price rose to $3248, it once again faced a correction and eventually closed at $3326. I expect that with the market opening, we’ll see further correction from gold, and the first potential target will likely be the $3213–$3216 area. The key demand zones are $3253–$3274 and the $3313 level. The key supply zones are $3355–$3369 and $3395–$3408.

GOLD ROUTE MAP UPDATEHey Everyone, Strong start to the week for our chart setup. Despite initial bearish momentum, price action aligned well with our dip buying strategy. The session began with the bearish target at 3307 being achieved, triggering a key price reaction. This was followed by a ema5 cross and lock, confirming the activation of the retracement zone, which was also tested and respected with precision. We have now observed a confirmed breakout from the retracement range, opening the swing range. This move delivered our textbook swing bounce, again supporting our dip buying strategy. The full extent of the swing range remains active, indicating continued opportunity for strategic dip entries while the range structure holds. We will keep the above in mind when taking buys from dips. Our updated levels and weighted levels will allow us to track the movement down and then catch bounces up. We will continue to buy dips using our support levels taking 30 to 40 pips. As stated before each of our level structures give 20 to 40 pip bounces, which is enough for a nice entry and exit. If you back test the levels we shared every week for the past 24 months, you can see how effectively they were used to trade with or against short/mid term swings and trends. The swing range give bigger bounces then our weighted levels that's the difference between weighted levels and swing ranges. BULLISH TARGET 3341 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 3341 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGETS 3372 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 3372 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGET 3414 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 3414 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGET 3447 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 3447 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGETS 3478 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 3478 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGETS 3502 POTENTIALLY 3525 BEARISH TARGETS 3307 - DONE EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK BELOW 3307 WILL OPEN THE RETRACEMENT RANGE 3281 - DONE 3254 - DONE EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK BELOW 3254 WILL OPEN THE SWING RNGE 3233 - DONE 3201 As always, we will keep you all updated with regular updates throughout the week and how we manage the active ideas and setups.

Why Gold Is Pulling Back Now – May 2025 Update⚡️After surging above $3,500/oz in late April, gold has since declined over 8%, recently breaking below key levels and now trading near $3,210. The retracement reflects fading panic buying and growing attention to fundamental drivers: U.S. monetary policy, the strong dollar, easing geopolitical risks, and completed trade agreements. Here’s a breakdown of the leading catalysts and their current impact (ranked 0–10). 1. Fed “Higher for Longer” Bias Strength: 9/10 The Fed kept interest rates at 4.25–4.50% at its June policy meeting and reiterated its cautious stance. The absence of cuts combined with persistent inflation pressure is lifting real yields and undercutting gold’s appeal as a non-yielding asset. 2. U.S. Dollar Resurgence Strength: 8/10The U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) has climbed above 101 as investors digest the Fed’s hawkish tone. A stronger dollar reduces global gold demand, especially from non-USD buyers. 3. U.S.–China Trade Agreement Reached in Switzerland Strength: 7.5/10 A formal trade deal was announced in Geneva in May, easing longstanding tariff tensions. While specific tariff rollback details are pending, markets welcomed the de-escalation, pushing investors away from gold and into risk assets. 4. U.S.–U.K. Trade Deal Signed Strength: 7/10 The U.S. and U.K. finalized a bilateral trade agreement in early May, boosting global sentiment and further reducing the geopolitical premium priced into gold. 5. India–Pakistan Border De-escalation Strength: 6.5/10 After brief clashes in Kashmir in mid-May, both sides have since released statements of restraint. The calm has helped cap gold’s safe-haven bids. 6. Iran–U.S. Nuclear Talks Update Strength: 6/10 Talks resumed in Vienna in May with cautious optimism. While no concrete deal has been signed, progress and diplomatic language from both sides have eased fears of escalation. 7. Russia–Ukraine Ceasefire Developments Strength: 5.5/10 Localized ceasefires in eastern Ukraine, brokered by Turkey and the UN, have lowered near-term geopolitical risk. However, skepticism remains around long-term stability. 8. ETF Inflows & Institutional Demand Strength: 5/10 ETF inflows slowed in May (up just 48.2 tonnes), reflecting waning retail momentum. Still, central bank buying—especially from China—offers a medium-term cushion. Catalyst Strength Rankings (May 2025) 🔸Fed “higher for longer” bias 9 🔸U.S. dollar rebound 8 🔸U.S.–China trade agreement 5.5 🔸U.S.–U.K. trade deal signed 5 🔸India–Pakistan border easing 6.5 🔸Iran–U.S. nuclear diplomacy 6 🔸Russia–Ukraine ceasefire 5.5 🔸Global gold ETF & central-bank inflows 5 Where Next for Gold? ⚡️Current price: ~$3,210/oz 📉Recent support levels broken: $3,300 and $3,250 🎯Next technical floor: $3,150/oz ✨Upside triggers: Renewed dollar weakness, inflation surprise, or geopolitical flare-up Gold’s recent drop reflects the market's rotation out of fear-driven trades into yield-bearing and risk assets. While the Fed and the dollar remain dominant forces, any shock—whether geopolitical or inflationary—could quickly reignite interest in gold as a hedge.

Gold - New All Time High in the making?market context and trend environment This 4-hour chart of Gold (XAU/USD) from OANDA illustrates a strong impulsive structure within a broader bullish trend. Following a sharp upward movement that broke through previous structure, gold formed a swing high before entering a corrective phase. The market has since pulled back and appears to be stabilizing near a zone of high confluence, suggesting potential for a renewed move to the upside. Price has respected key retracement levels, reinforcing the technical strength of this zone. fair value gap and fibonacci confluence A notable feature of this setup is the alignment between a visible fair value gap and the Fibonacci golden pocket zone, comprising the 0.618–0.65 retracement levels. This convergence of technical tools adds weight to the significance of the support zone around the 3,280–3,300 region. Fair value gaps represent inefficiencies in the market caused by strong institutional participation, while the golden pocket is historically known for acting as a magnet for reversals within trending markets. The presence of both in the same area increases the likelihood of price reacting positively here. liquidity sweep and structural reaction Before revisiting this key demand zone, price briefly swept below a local low, which may have served as a liquidity grab to fuel the next bullish leg. This liquidity sweep is followed by a sharp reaction, suggesting that downside pressure may have been absorbed by aggressive buyers positioned at the FVG and golden pocket. Price has since rebounded, and the subsequent price action shows a gradual formation of higher lows, hinting at a shift in short-term order flow back in favor of buyers. projection and bullish scenario The chart projects a potential bullish continuation move, with a series of higher lows anticipated to form en route to a break of structure above recent swing highs. Multiple buy-side liquidity levels (BSL) are marked, representing areas where buy stops are likely to be clustered. These zones offer clear targets for bullish expansion. The blue arrowed projection outlines a methodical stair-step advance, respecting interim levels before ultimately attempting to reach the prior high near 3,530. strategic framework and trader insight This chart offers a methodical roadmap for bullish continuation, rooted in the smart money framework of liquidity, inefficiency, and institutional order flow. The confluence between the fair value gap and Fibonacci retracement is particularly notable and serves as a key validation area for bullish traders. Rather than anticipating immediate breakout behavior, the projection emphasizes a progressive structure that aligns with how larger players tend to accumulate positions before moving the market. Patience and alignment with structure are emphasized as price prepares for a potential continuation move higher.

GOLD Rebounds from Key Support - Is 3,310 the Next Target?OANDA:XAUUSD is reacting from a significant demand zone, marked by prior price rejections and strong buying pressure. This area has historically acted as a key support zone, suggesting the potential for a bullish reversal as buyers regain control. The current market structure confirms that price has already bounced from this demand zone, signaling a potential shift in momentum. If this bullish reaction sustains, the market may continue higher toward the 3,310$, which represents a logical target within the current structure. However, a break back below this demand zone would invalidate the bullish bias and could lead to further downside. This setup reflects the potential for a continuation after the confirmed rejection, supported by both historical demand and the current rebound structure.

Natural Gas: Bullish Triangle PatternNatural Gas: Bullish Triangle Pattern Natural Gas (XNGUSD) appears to be forming a Bullish Triangle Pattern, suggesting potential upward movement. The price is currently around 3.9900 USD, and the analysis highlights two key targets: The breakout from the triangle pattern indicates possible price strength, meaning buyers are gaining control. The structure suggests that the breakout from the pattern is acting as support, while 4.1000 USD and 4.2000 USD are key resistance zones where price action may face resistance. While the price may continue rising toward the targets, minor corrections could occur along the way as traders take profits or reassess market conditions. First target: 4.1000 Second target: 4.2000 You may find more details in the chart!

THE KOG REPORT - Update End of day update from us here at KOG: What a day on gold. We wanted this to go higher into the order region to enable us to short it in to the level we wanted following the path. Market glitched, we didn't get the move we wanted, completed all the bearish targets for the week but then....we managed to get a nice long trade from the lows into the resistance level above. Now 3230 turns into resistance with many traders chasing the gap early session likely holding on to trades. As you can see, the red box broke early session, that was the signal to maintain the move into the levels. So we'll stick with it at the moment as long as that 3255 level holds us down. An undercut low takes us into 3190-5 which is where we may see price hold for CPI tomorrow. All bearish targets done in one swoop! KOG’s bias of the week: Bullish above 3310 with targets above 3335, 3345, 3350, 3350, 3362 and 3370 Bearish below 3310 with targets below 3306✅, 3301✅, 3297✅, 3285✅ and 3274✅ RED BOXES (TAKE NOTE) Break above 3335 for 3342, 3350, 3354, 3365, 3370. 3373 and 3385 in extension of the move Break below 3320 for 3310✅, 3306✅, 3298✅, 3293✅, 3285✅ and 3279✅ in extension of the move As always, trade safe.

Gold Bulls Are Loading — Don’t Miss the Fair Value Launch Zone🔍 XAUUSD 30M | Smart Money Breakdown Gold just gave a liquidation + FVG bounce setup with a high-probability bullish reaction. Let’s break it down like a sniper 🧠👇 🔻 1. Falling Channel Structure Gold’s been grinding down in a neat descending channel, consistently taking out liquidity beneath swing lows. This compression usually ends in aggressive expansion — and Smart Money knows it. 🔁 2. FVG Reclaim = Institutional Entry Zone The chart shows a Fair Value Gap (FVG) perfectly respected around $3,226 – $3,236. Price dipped into this imbalance and is now reacting — textbook Smart Money entry. You're seeing clear demand stepping in after a sell-side liquidity sweep. 📈 3. Target = Upper Channel + Imbalance Fill If momentum holds, Gold likely reaches for the upper channel resistance and fills the imbalance zone up to ~$3,280+. That’s your primary draw on liquidity. 🎯 4. Trade Plan (RR ~3:1) 📍 Entry: Around FVG zone ($3,226–$3,236) ❌ Stop-Loss: Below the FVG zone ✅ TP: $3,280 (upper channel tap) Smart Money is entering early while retail waits for confirmation breakouts 👀 🧩 Key Confluences: ✅ Falling Channel ✅ Fair Value Gap Tap ✅ Bullish Engulfing Response ✅ Clean RRR Setup ✅ Liquidity Sweep Prior to Entry 📊 Summary: This setup screams Smart Money Accumulation. Gold hunts the lows, reclaims the imbalance, and is now gearing up for a bullish run. The reaction off the FVG is your golden ticket. Let price work — don’t chase, just manage risk like a pro. 💬 Comment “💰 XAU Sniper Setup” if you caught this one early! ⚔️ Follow @ChartNinjas88 for elite Smart Money plays. 👀 Tag a trader still shorting this range 😅

Gold - Follow The Macro Trend!Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst. 📈 GOLD has been overall bullish from a macro perspective trading within the rising wedge pattern in orange. After rejecting the $3,500 round number and upper bound of the wedge, XAUUSD signaled the start of the correction phase as marked by the red falling channel. Moreover, the $3,100 - $3,150 zone is a strong support. 🏹 Thus, the highlighted blue circle is a strong area to look for buy setups as it is the intersection of support and lower orange trendline acting non-horizontal support. 📚 As per my trading style: As #XAUUSD approaches the blue circle zone, I will be looking for bullish reversal setups (like a double bottom pattern, trendline break , and so on...) 📚 Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management. Good luck! All Strategies Are Good; If Managed Properly! ~Rich Disclosure: I am part of Trade Nation's Influencer program and receive a monthly fee for using their TradingView charts in my analysis.

GOLD - Price can break support level and continue to declineHi guys, this is my overview for XAUUSD, feel free to check it and write your feedback in comments👊 Recently price entered to triangle, where it at once bounced from support line, which coincided with support level. Price rose to resistance line, breaking $3400 level, but soon turned around and dropped below, breaking this level again. Next, Gold made a gap and continued to fall in a triangle, and later it reached $3215 level, after which bounced up. Then price exited from triangle, rose to $3400 level and made fake breakout, after which started to decline in falling channel. In channel, price fell to $3215 level, where at the moment continued to trades close and trying to break this level. I think Gold can break this level and continue to fall in a falling channel to $3140 If this post is useful to you, you can support me with like/boost and advice in comments❤️

XAU/USD..1h chart pattern..**short trade on gold (XAU/USD) from 3272 with a target of 3200**—a **75-point drop**. Let’s break this down: --- ### **Trade Analysis: Sell Gold @ 3275 → Target 3200** 1. **Potential Profit**: - **72 points** (3272 – 3200). - If trading 1 lot (100 oz), this is **$720 profit**. 2. **Key Levels**: - **Entry**: 3275 - **Target**: 3200 (support level) - **Stop-Loss (SL)**: Should be above a recent swing high (e.g., 3300–3320). 3. **Risk-Reward Ratio**: - If SL = 3320 (48 points risk), Reward = 72 points → **1:1.5 ratio** (acceptable). 4. **Technical Justification**: - **Bearish Scenario**: Gold fails to break 3300 resistance, pulls back to 3200. - **Support at 3200**: A break below could lead to 3150 or lower. - **Confirmation Needed**: Look for rejection at 3272 (bearish candlestick patterns, RSI divergence). 5. **Fundamental Factors**: - **Strong USD** → Gold weakens. - **Fed Hawkishness** (rate hikes) → Negative for gold. - **Geopolitical Calm** → Less safe-haven demand. --- ### **Trade Execution Plan** - **Entry**: Sell at **3275** (or wait for rejection confirmation). - **Stop-Loss**: **3300–3320** (adjust based on volatility). - **Take Profit**: **3200** (first target), then trail if momentum continues. - **Alternative**: Partial profit at 3225, move SL to breakeven. --- ### **Caution** - Gold is volatile—unexpected news (war, Fed pivot) could spike prices. - If 3200 holds as support, consider closing the trade or tightening stops.

XAUUSD TRADE Entry from Support with Targets at 3,347 and 3,503Entry Point: 3,219.45 Stop Loss: 3,171.35 Target Point One: 3,347.49 EA Target Point (Final Target): 3,503.87 Trade Plan: Risk Zone: Between entry (3,219.45) and stop loss (3,171.35). The trader risks roughly 48.1 points. Reward Zone: From entry to: Target Point One: ~128 points. Final Target (EA Target): ~284.4 points. Risk-Reward Ratios: To Target Point One: ~2.66:1 To EA Target Point: ~5.9:1 Indicators and Signals: Price appears to be bouncing off a support zone near 3,212–3,219, indicating a potential reversal. 200 EMA (blue) and 50 EMA (red) are shown; price is slightly above the 200 EMA, suggesting long-term support. There is a downtrend before the bounce, so this might be a counter-trend trade or the start of a new trend. Summary: This setup is a classic bounce from a demand/support zone with a clear upside potential. The risk is tightly managed, and the reward is significantly higher, aligning with favorable risk-reward principles. However, the position is speculative and relies on bullish follow-through from the support level. Watch price behavior near the 3,288 and 3,347 resistance zones to assess momentum.

Hellena | GOLD (4H): LONG to resistance area of 3495.The design of the previous idea had an error in the table of contents and I decided to make a new one. The price has reached the support area 3240 and at the moment I expect the price to start an upward movement in the wave “3” of the middle order - it will be a continuation of the wave “5” of the higher order. The target is the same - the maximum of wave “3” 3495. Manage your capital correctly and competently! Only enter trades based on reliable patterns!

Gold Bears Aim for 3200 – Selling Rallies Remains the PlayIn my Friday analysis, I highlighted the potential for Gold to retest the 3270 support zone, and indeed, the Asian session and the opening of the new trading week confirmed this move, pushing Gold down to a low of 3255. The overall chart structure remains strongly bearish following the false breakout above the 3370 resistance and the spike above 3400. This suggests that sellers are firmly in control, with a high probability of further downside. I expect a break below 3270 support in the coming sessions, targeting the 3200 zone as the next major level for bears. For now, the strategy remains clear: Sell rallies as long as 3350 resistance remains intact. 🚀 Disclosure: I am part of Trade Nation's Influencer program and receive a monthly fee for using their TradingView charts in my analyses and educational articles.

Gold’s Short-Term Setup!!!Gold ( OANDA:XAUUSD ) started to fall today after the news " The United States has dropped its tariffs on Chinese goods to 30%, down from a brutal 145%, while China is slashing its own duties on US imports to just 10%, temporarily, for the next 90 days. " Gold is moving near a Heavy Support zone($3,198-$3,136) . In terms of Elliott wave theory , it appears that Gold has completed five downwaves , and we should expect Gold to rise at least to the Resistance zone($3,280-$3,245) . It is possible that selling pressure on Gold will increase again with the opening of the US marke t. But this analysis is in the short term , and it is likely to hit Target before the US market opens. The Bullish Engulfing Candlestick Pattern can also be a sign of Gold rising , at least in the short term . I expect Gold to rise to at least $3,241.890. Note: Stop Loss(SL): $3204.820 Gold Analyze ( XAUUSD ), 15-minute time frame. Be sure to follow the updated ideas. Do not forget to put a Stop loss for your positions (For every position you want to open). Please follow your strategy; this is just my idea, and I will gladly see your ideas in this post.

XAUUSD Daily Sniper Plan – Monday, May 12, 2025“Structure First. Noise Later. Gold Moves Clean When You Do.” ⚖️🧠 Intraday Bias: Bullish, short-term recovery inside broader pullback Structure: CHoCH confirmed at 3284 → market forming higher low structure 🔍 H1 Market Flow Overview: Price broke structure above 3284–3292, forming a clean CHoCH on H1. Since then, price impulsively pushed toward 3340, pausing around 3314–3318. EMAs (5/21/50) are starting to align bullish, with EMA5 now crossing above 21. Volume compression + wicks suggest potential accumulation in the 3314–3318 zone. 📌 Key H1 Zones (Above & Below Price) 🔺 Resistance Zones Zone Description 3340–3345 Friday’s high + intraday liquidity trap zone 3380–3395 Strong H1/Daily confluence resistance (OB + FVG) 🔻 Support Zones Zone Description 3314–3318 🔵 Micro liquidity pocket + HL accumulation zone – potential inducement/reentry base 3284–3292 🔵 CHoCH base – must hold for bullish structure to continue 3260–3265 🔵 Deep intraday OB + liquidity sweep zone 3220–3235 🔵 Major HTF demand – structural last line of defense 🔁 Scenarios for Monday (May 12): 🟢 Bullish Setup: If price holds above 3314–3318, we may see a reattempt toward 3340, then potentially push into 3380–3395. Retest of 3314 zone could serve as HL confirmation before breakout. 🔴 Bearish Setup: If 3314 fails and price closes below 3284, this invalidates current bullish micro-structure. In that case, we target 3260 or even 3235 depending on momentum. Rejection from 3340 or 3380 without BOS → short toward 3284 or 3250 Clean break below 3284 flips LTF bearish 🎯 Sniper Logic: Gold is trapped in a battle between Friday’s high and the CHoCH base. The true breakout will come once either 3345 is reclaimed clean, or 3284 fails hard. Until then, play inside structure — sniper entries only. 💬 Final Words: Gold doesn’t bluff — but it does bait and trap. Mark your zones, wait for confirmation, and let the impulsive ones get hunted. Gold doesn’t care about your bias — only about the zones that hold. If 3284 stays protected, bulls might reload. If it cracks, fade the optimism and follow the flow down. 🟡 Stay smart. Stay patient. And remember: clean structure = clean profit. ✨ Drop your thoughts in the comments, smash that like, and follow GoldFxMinds for sniper-level clarity every session.
