Technical Analysis for Gold Spot/USD (1-Hour Chart)Current Market Overview Current Price: $2,646.34 Market Trend: Bearish with a range-bound consolidation phase after a strong decline. Key Support and Resistance Levels: Resistance: $2,646.34 (current zone), $2,692.50, and $2,725.84 Support: $2,632.71, $2,613.26, and $2,602.79 Bullish Scenario Technical Factors Price Action: Price is stabilizing above $2,632.71, a key support level, with a small bounce attempting to hold around the current range near $2,646. Multiple rejection wicks below $2,640 signal buyers defending this region. Volume Profile: The green delta volume spike near $2,632.71 (41.54K volume) suggests buyers stepped in at this support. Indicators: The pink EMA cloud still indicates bearish pressure, but it is flattening, suggesting the bearish momentum is losing steam. A close above the bearish cloud and price sustaining above $2,646 could signal a reversal. Support Zone: Strong buying demand is seen between $2,632.71 and $2,613.26. Probable Entry Points Entry: Early Entry: Near $2,640 to $2,646 once price consolidates and shows bullish candle formations (hammer, engulfing). Confirmed Entry: Break and close above $2,652 with strong volume. Take-Profit Targets Short-term TP1: $2,660 (recent minor resistance). TP2: $2,692.50 (15% delta volume zone). Extended TP3: $2,725.84 (higher resistance and key supply zone). Stop-Loss Place SL below $2,632 to protect against further downside. Bearish Scenario Technical Factors Price Action: Price remains under pressure below the pink EMA cloud and has struggled to close above it since December 16th. Lower highs continue to form, confirming bearish structure. Volume Analysis: Strong selling pressure is evident near $2,646.34, shown by red bearish delta volumes. Sell zones around $2,646 to $2,660 are seeing repeated rejections. Resistance Zone: $2,646 to $2,652 acts as immediate resistance, and failure to break above this level could trigger further selling. Bearish Continuation Signal: A close below $2,632.71 will confirm bearish continuation to lower support zones. Probable Entry Points Entry: Aggressive Entry: Near $2,646 (sell at rejection or bearish engulfing candles). Confirmed Entry: Breakdown and close below $2,632.71. Take-Profit Targets Short-term TP1: $2,632.71 (immediate support). TP2: $2,613.26 (key support zone). Extended TP3: $2,602.79 (final strong support and green demand zone). Stop-Loss Place SL above $2,652 or $2,660 to protect against a bullish reversal. Summary: Trading Plan Scenario Entry Zone Stop-Loss Take-Profit Targets Bullish $2,640 - $2,646 Below $2,632 TP1: $2,660, TP2: $2,692, TP3: $2,725 Bearish $2,646 - $2,652 Above $2,660 TP1: $2,632, TP2: $2,613, TP3: $2,602 Conclusion Bullish Bias: If price closes above $2,652 with strong volume, expect a move toward $2,692 and higher. Bearish Bias: A rejection at $2,646 - $2,652 or a breakdown below $2,632.71 will likely push prices toward $2,613.26 - $2,602.79. Recommendation: Watch price behavior at $2,646 and $2,632.71 for confirmation. Use proper risk management and wait for clear breakouts or rejections.

Mean Reversion CME GAP at FOMC -> Pump until BOJ Rate DecissionHello guys! I will share a mean reversion idea on Bitcoin with you today. I expect Bitcoin to close the CME Gap, that got made at the beginning of the week. Currently we are very close to starting the recovery process. The CME Gap closing aligns very good with a mean reversion to the 50EMA on the 4hr timeframe. This could be an indication for a trend continuation of Bitcoin to the upside until friday when the Bank of Japan (BOJ) will decide their rate policy. We will look into the chart from a new perspective on friday so take this trade idea as a short term one. I mentioned in the chart that we have an unrecovered pink vector candle at the top. This could be an good area to aim for in the reversal process to take profit. With good execution this could be an good trade from 102k to 108k. Me personal, I don't think we will see a rate cut and if so only a small one. So nothing that will shake the markets to hard. I hope. Trade SAFE!

Profitable SMC Smart MoneyConcept Strategy Explained I will teach you how to trade liquidity grab, a trap, inducement, order block and imbalance. I will share with you my Smart Money Concept strategy for trading forex & gold. We will study a real SMC trading setup that I took on a live stream with my students. Trend Analysis With Structure Mapping The first step in our trading strategy will be the analysis of a market trend on a daily time frame with structure mapping. Analyzing GBPNZD on a daily time frame, we can see that the conditions for a bullish trend are met. Liquidity Zones Analysis The second step will be to find liquidity - supply and demand zones on a daily time frame. According to our rules, here are 3 liquidity zones that I spotted on GBPNZD. We see 2 demand zones and 1 supply zone. Test of Liquidity Zone The third step will be to wait for a test of a liquidity zone. And on that step, we should remember an important rule: We will wait only for a test of a liquidity zone that ALIGN with the market trend. It means that we will wait for a test of a demand zone in a bullish trend. We will wait for a test of a supply zone in a bearish trend. The only demand zones that meets these criteria on GBPNZD is Demand Zone 1. It aligns with a bullish trend. We don't consider Demand Zone 2, because a bearish violation of a Demand Zone 1 will be a Change of Character and a violation of a bearish trend. And here is how a test of a liquidity zone should look like. The price should simply reach that. Liquidity Grab & Imbalance After we identified a test of a significant liquidity zone that aligns with a market trend, we will start analyzing lower time frames. We will look for a liquidity grab, order block and imbalance on 4H and 1H time frames. Here is a liquidity grab that is confirmed by a bullish imbalance. We see a false violation of a liquidity zone, followed by a high momentum bullish candle. It will be our strong bullish signal. Order Block Zone In order to identify the entry point, the next step will be to identify the order block zone. According to our rules, here is the order block zone on a 4H time frame. Entry Level Our entry level will be the level of the upper boundary of the order block zone. Here is such a level on GBPNZD. A buy limit order should be set on that level. Please, note that in that particular case we don't need a 1H time frame analysis, because we have a confirmation signal on a 4H time frame. We will analyse an hourly time frame only when THERE IS NO SIGNAL on a 4H time frame. Stop Loss & Take Profit Safe stop loss should be below the lowest low of a bearish movement. To safely calculate a stop loss in pips for the trade, simply take 0.5 ATR - Average True Range. For Average True Range indicator , take the default settings - 14 length. Here is a safe stop loss level on GBPNZD. ATR is 55 pips. Our stop loss for the trade is 28 pips. Take profit for the trade will be based on the closest 4H liquidity - supply zone. That is the closest supply zone that I spotted on GBPNZD on a 4H time frame. Your target level should be a couple of pips below a supply zone. Look how perfectly the market reached the target! As you can see, that trading strategy is quite complex and combines different important elements. But what I like about this SMC trading strategy is that it truly makes sense. The intentions of Smart Money are crystal clear here and the trade execution rules are straight forward. ❤️Please, support my work with like, thank you!❤️

The economy is looking to the FedThe Fed has started its two-day policy meeting and is expected to cut interest rates by another 25 basis points. However, the focus will be on the Summary of Economic Projections (SEP) and dot plot, which provide guidance for interest rates in 2025. While US Treasury yields and real yields both edged lower, the US dollar remained steady. The 10-year Treasury yield fell to 4.379%, while the DXY index rose 0.07% to 107.01. On the technical front, gold prices maintain their long-term uptrend but are under pressure in the short term. The key support level now is $2,600/ounce, which corresponds to the 100-day simple moving average (SMA). A break of this level could send prices lower to $2,531 – the August 20 high. Conversely, if the price breaks above $2,650, the next target will be $2,670 (50-day SMA), and then $2,700. In addition to the Fed’s decision, investors are awaiting the release of the core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) price index, the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge, to gauge the future direction of policy. Signs that the incoming Trump administration may push for expansionary fiscal policy have raised expectations of a change in the Fed’s stance in the near term.

World gold price todayGold prices continued to weaken today due to stronger-than-expected important US economic news. The US retail sales report for November showed an increase of 0.7%, 0.2 percentage points higher than the forecast increase of 0.5%. This information made some gold investors worry that the FED may postpone the 0.25 percentage point interest rate cut after the end of the monetary policy meeting in the early morning of December 19. Since then, many people have temporarily stopped trading gold. On the other hand, gold is also likely to have limited purchasing power due to some forecasts of rising inflation in the US, a slowing labor market..., prompting the FED to stop cutting interest rates early in 2025. At that time, the USD could increase in value very strongly, negatively affecting the world gold price trend. The question now is whether the Fed will be more hawkish or dovish than the market has been expecting. Investors are now expecting the Fed to be more cautious in easing monetary policy, given the impact of Donald Trump’s agenda on inflation.

Gold Influenced by Various Factors, Focus on The Fed's DecisionGold prices need to clear $2,664-$2,664 levels for investors to gain control of the short-term market. From a technical perspective, any subsequent up-move might face hurdles near the weekly highs, around the $2,664-$2,666 area touched on Monday, ahead of the $2,677 area. A sustained strength beyond the latter should allow Gold prices to reclaim the $2,700 round figure. The up-move could extend towards the monthly swing highs, around the $2,726 zone, above which XAU/USD is likely to resume its upward trajectory. On the flip side, the overnight swing low, around the $2,633 region, now seems to protect the immediate downside ahead of the monthly trough, around the $2,614 zone. This is followed by the $2,600 level, which, if broken decisively, will be seen as a fresh trigger for bearish traders and make Gold prices vulnerable to extending the recent sharp decline from the one-month highs touched last week.
