Gold Testing All Time High LevelsIt is no secret that the precious metals have been at the forefront of traders' minds over the past year with Gold and Silver showing significant gains near all time high levels. The Gold market today is up over $50 on the February contract and is now trading near the all time high levels achieved in October of 2024. Looking at the economic data, initial jobless claims came in better than expected while GDP came in worse than expected. Along with the economic data, the Fed met this week and kept rates unchanged, and the CME Fed Watch Tool is now pricing in the first rate cut of the year to come in June. This estimation can change over the course of the next few months based on many different indicators such as unemployment and inflation, but precious metals traders will be keeping an eye on guidance from the Fed to see if the current run in Gold and Silver will continue.

GOLD - WEEKLY SUMMARY 3.2-7.2 / FORECAST🏆 GOLD – 13th week of the base cycle (15-20+ weeks), 3rd phase of the cycle. The pivot forecast on February 3 worked as a reversal of Monday’s overnight tariff hysteria. The major trend from the December 18 extreme forecast continues. ⚠️ By Friday’s close, we saw a breakout of the previous top at the October 28 extreme forecast level (2800 on the current futures contract). This level may now become strong support. I believe strong hands didn’t fall for the tariff hysteria and held their long positions from the January 29 extreme forecast. Next extreme forecast: March 3. Next pivot forecast: February 11.

Gold vs UNI – Is UNI in the Early Stages of AccumulationThis comparison between Gold (MGC1!) and Uniswap (UNIUSDT) on the weekly timeframe suggests that UNI could be in Phase 1 of a buy program, similar to how gold accumulated before its major breakout. 📌 Key Observations in the Chart Comparison: PHASE 1: The Accumulation Zone (Green Highlighted Area) Gold went through a long accumulation period (2013–2017), trading in a sideways range before its parabolic impulse leg kicked in. UNI is currently in a similar consolidation phase, potentially in the early stages of accumulation. The monkey face + pointing emoji suggest a "stealth phase" where most retail traders remain unaware of the underlying accumulation. Old High & Market Structure Gold formed a major high, crashed, and accumulated before breaking out. UNI also reached an all-time high (~$44), crashed, and is now ranging in what looks like a potential accumulation phase. Similar structural formation suggests UNI could be following gold’s footsteps. Impulse Leg & Breakout Potential Gold’s first major breakout came after a long accumulation, followed by a massive impulse move (Phase 2). If UNI is mirroring gold, the next breakout could start the impulse leg leading to a retest of old highs and beyond. Standard Deviation Extensions (STDVN) – Potential Price Targets Gold reached 0.5 and 1 STDVN levels after its breakout, which became short-term targets before continuation. If UNI follows a similar trajectory, targets could be $44.77, $64.98, and eventually $85+ if the accumulation plays out. 🔮 What This Means for UNI? Early accumulation phase means the smart money is likely positioning. Price compression leads to expansion—UNI could be preparing for an explosive move. Similar to gold, UNI could break above accumulation and enter Phase 2, targeting 0.5 and 1 STDVN levels. If UNI truly follows gold’s structure, long-term price discovery is on the table. 🚨 Lord MEDZ Trading Perspective "Not financial advice, but let’s keep it real…" Gold showed the exact same pattern before making a historic move. UNI is mirroring the early accumulation phase. This is the shakeout before the breakout. Smart money is accumulating while retail panics. Patience = Wealth. Stay ahead of the crowd. 🚀 UNI could be setting up for something massive. 🚀

Ethereum vs. Gold Chart Comparison – Potential Explosive The comparison between Micro Gold Futures (MGC1!) and Ethereum (ETHUSDT) on the weekly timeframe suggests that Ethereum could be mirroring gold’s price structure before its parabolic breakout. Key Similarities Between Gold & Ethereum: Impulse Leg Formation 🔥 Both assets formed a strong impulse leg after a significant low. The Ethereum impulse leg started from the ~$1,530 low, pushing toward ~$4,000 before retracing into accumulation. Gold followed a similar pattern, forming a strong rally before consolidation. Accumulation Range Both charts show a clear accumulation phase after the impulse leg. Gold accumulated sideways for an extended period before exploding to the upside. Ethereum is currently within its accumulation range, suggesting that it could be preparing for a similar breakout. This is a shakeout phase designed to trap weak hands before the real move. Standard Deviation Extensions (STDVN) & Key Levels 🎯 Both charts use standard deviation extensions (STDVN) to project potential short-term targets. 0.5 STDVN & 1 STDVN levels are crucial areas where price could react. Gold blasted through these levels after breaking out of accumulation. If Ethereum follows suit, 5,288 (0.5 STDVN) and 6,605 (1 STDVN) could be in play. Previous Highs Acting as Support/Resistance Gold broke past its old high, retested, and surged. Ethereum is still hovering below its previous major high (~4,800). If Ethereum flips this level into support, it could send price into price discovery mode. What This Means for Ethereum 🚀 Gold already showed the path—Ethereum is lagging but setting up similarly. Volatility is part of the process—shakeouts happen before the breakout. Holding ETH through this phase could be crucial if history repeats itself. A breakout beyond the accumulation range could send ETH towards $5,200 - $6,600+ in the short term. Beyond 1 STDVN, ETH enters uncharted territory—an all-time high breakout could be explosive. Final Thoughts from Lord MEDZ 👑 Not financial advice, but I’m holding ETH through the chop. The last shakeout before an all-time high run is often the toughest. But the chart comparison is clear: Gold did it first. Ethereum could be next. 🔥 Patience. Conviction. Execution. 🔥
