(XAU/USD) 3H Chart – Bearish Reversal Setup from Resistance Zon1. Entry Point (Sell):
Marked at 3,335.03
This is a key resistance level where price is expected to reverse downward.
2. Stop Loss:
Placed above at 3,354.88
This acts as a protection level in case the trade goes against the direction.
3. Take Profit Targets (EA Target Points):
TP1 (Downside): 3,245.65
TP2 (Upside - if Stop Loss is hit): 3,455.76 (in case of reversal or long position)
4. Price Action Observation:
Price is currently around 3,320.56, climbing back toward the entry zone.
The red 50-period moving average (EMA) and blue 200-period MA show convergence, often preceding volatility.
---
📉 Bearish Scenario (Main Setup)
Sell Bias is expected from the 3,335 region.
If price respects the resistance zone and breaks down again, the target is 3,245.65, yielding approximately 90-point move.
This is a risk-reward favorable setup, with:
Risk: ~20 points
Reward: ~90 points
RRR ≈ 1:4.5
---
⚠️ Bullish Invalidity (Stop Loss Hit)
If the price breaks and closes above 3,354.88, it invalidates the bearish setup.
Then, the market may shift towards targeting 3,455.76 — about 100 points to the upside.

🔧 Technical Factors Supporting the Setup
Supply zone marked by the purple box around the entry.
Trend previously bearish — recent upward move may just be a retracement.
Confluence with MAs: Price is testing MAs — rejection here would add bearish confirmation.

XAU/USD 2H CHART PATTERNXAUUSD 2H chart shows a clear trendline breakout after a period of consolidation, indicating a potential bullish continuation. The breakout occurred with strong momentum, supported by clear higher lows before the break, signaling buyer interest. Price action has closed firmly above the trendline, confirming the breakout structure and suggesting the potential for further upward movement if momentum continues. The breakout zone can now act as a support if price retests before continuation. The structure aligns with a bullish scenario, and the breakout level will be monitored for validation. A clean follow-through move is anticipated as long as the breakout structure holds, providing an opportunity for a controlled and patient approach toward the targets.

GOLD ROUTE MAP UPDATEHey Everyone,
Once again our chart idea and levels are being respected and playing out to perfection, allowing us to confirm continuations and rejections.
After completing our targets, 3324 and 3354 yesterday, we had no further cross and lock above 3354, confirming the rejection.
We are now seeing price play and consolidate between 3324 and 3354 and will need ema5 cross and lock on either level to confirm our next direction.
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 20 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.

Please see our 4H chart update, following on from our 1h chart update. Once again, no surprise with our levels playing out to perfection!!
We started the week with both our Bearish 3242 and Bullish 3301 targets hit. This followed with a ema5 cross and lock above 3301 to confirm a continuation into 3370. We got the push up, over 600 pips but just short of the full gap to 3370.
We are now seeing playing between 3301 and 3370, keeping in mind the full gap to 3370 remains open, as long as ema5 remains above 3301.

GOLD ROUTE MAP UPDATEHey Everyone,
Great finish to the week!!
We will now finish off with the Daily chart update, after following the 1h and 4h chart throughout the week. This will now remind everyone, how we broke down the overall structure into play.
The bounce scenario off 3272 has now officially played out, just as outlined.
After the clean rejection at the channel top near 3433, price moved precisely into the 3272 Goldturn support, where we were watching closely for structure to hold. That level held beautifully, providing a solid base for this week’s strong push upward.
This reaction once again highlights the precision and reliability of the Goldturn levels - 3272 acted as a critical pivot, and the market respected it perfectly. We didn’t get an EMA5 cross and lock breakdown, confirming that buyers were still in control at this support, and that was our green light for bounce structure to unfold.
As price grinds its way back up the channel, we’ll continue to monitor reactions at key resistance zones. The measured structural move from 3272 reinforces our approach of trading level to level with patience and confirmation, not emotion.
We’ll be back Sunday with a full multi timeframe analysis to prepare for next week’s setups including updated views on the higher timeframes, EMA alignments, and structure expectations going forward.
Key Levels to Watch:
Resistance: 3433 (channel top)
Support: 3272 (confirmed bounce zone)
Thanks again for all your likes, comments, and follows.
Wishing you all a fantastic weekend!!

THE KOG REPORTTHE KOG REPORT:
In last week’s KOG Report we said we would ideally be looking for price to attempt lower and reject at the red box giving us the opportunity to long back up into the key levels following the red box and Excalibur targets. We did open with a huge spike down, into the 2nd region we wanted and managed to the move we giving us a great start to the week. As you can see on last week’s chart we broke above the red box which meant shorting was not on the cards, and a continuation into the next level would be a preferable trade, also working well. The NFP bias was bearish below the red box, again, tap and bounce from Excalibur giving the move downside, but not completing at the level we initially wanted.
Not a bad week at all in Camelot.
So, what can we expect in the week ahead?
For this week we would expect cleaner price action but there isn’t a lot of news so we may see some ranging and sudden burst of volume which will be needed to drive price out of the range.
We have support at the 3330 level and the extension level which is around 3210, which if spiked and held, should give us a move into the higher red box level and resistance 3345-50. There is another extension level above, 3360-65, which, if there was a bias this week would be the bearish below level. This level, if approached needs to be watched carefully for a potential RIP and needs to be broken for us to see higher pricing in gold.
Volume indicators are suggesting a potential pull back on the open, so let’s see if we can find that support and as long as we don’t break below 3310-6 we may just see a more range play between 3365 resistance and 3310 support.
It’s a bit conflicting on the charts this week which is why we’ll say let’s play it day by day and we’ll update every one as we go through the week.
RED BOX TARGETS:
Break above 3350 for 3355, 3360, 3362, 3365, 3374, 3388 and 3396 in extension of the move
Break below 3335 for 3331, 3324, 3321, 3310, 3306 and 3293 in extension of the move

XAUUSD – Correction or Reversal? 1. What happened yesterday
As expected, Gold started to rise after finding support at 3250. The move up played out perfectly, reaching the resistance area highlighted in yesterday’s analysis — around 3320–3340.
________________________________________
2. The key question today
Is this just a correction in a bearish trend, or the start of reversal?
________________________________________
3. Why I remain bearish
• On the weekly chart, structure still leans bearish
• On lower time frames, the bounce looks corrective — not impulsive
• No breakout above 3360 yet, which would be needed to shift the bias
• A move back below 3320 would likely trigger renewed selling
• If that happens, 3250 could be tested again quickly
We need to respect the bounce — but not overreact to it.
________________________________________
4. Trading plan
My bias remains bearish as long as price stays under 3360.
However, if we get a daily close above 3360, I’ll pause and re-evaluate the short bias. The market would then be signaling a potential trend shift.
________________________________________
5. Final thoughts 🚀
This is a key moment for gold. We’re at resistance zone but not broken above yet.
Until proven otherwise, the trend remains down — and rallies into 3340 zone should be considered selling opportunities.

Gold is Nearing an Important Support AreaHey Traders, in today's trading session we are monitoring XAUUSD for a buying opportunity around 3,340 zone, Gold is trading in an uptrend and currently is in a correction phase in which it is approaching the trend at 3,340 support and resistance area.

Gold’s Trap Above QML: Bearish Play UnfoldingHello Guys!
Gold appears to be forming a textbook Quasimodo reversal setup after printing a lower high into a key supply zone. Price aggressively tapped into the QML area (around 3,350–3,360), where sellers previously stepped in, and we’re now seeing signs of rejection.
The engulf zone marked earlier confirms bearish intent. It broke structure and flipped momentum. Price is currently retesting below that engulf level, likely as a last attempt to grab liquidity before heading down.
The projected move suggests a drop toward the next significant demand zone around 3,295–3,285, where the price previously found a strong bullish reaction.
Bias: Bearish below QML
Target: 3,295 zone
Invalidation: Above 3,368 (high of supply zone)
GOLD DAILY CHART ROUTE MAP Hey Everyone,
Please see update and plans for the coming week on our Daily chart idea that we have been tracking.
After wrapping up last week and actively tracking the 1h and 4h structures throughout last week within the daily chart overall structure. This brings everything together and reminds us how the broader structure has continued to evolve in our favour.
The bounce off at 3272 that we outlined has now fully played out, showing yet again how critical these Goldturn levels are in guiding our strategy.
Following the clean rejection at the channel top near 3433, price moved precisely into the 3272 support, where we were focused on structure to hold. That level held beautifully, giving us a strong technical base for upward continuation.
As we head into the new week, we’ve once again seen price find support at 3272, with a clean bounce that opens up the potential for price to fill the gap back toward 3433, as long as EMA5 remains above 3272. This dynamic will be a key technical trigger for us to monitor in the coming sessions.
There was no EMA5 cross and lock breakdown, which confirmed that buyers maintained control at this level. That absence of breakdown was our confirmation that the bounce structure was not only valid, but likely to continue unfolding into the new week.
As price grinds its way back up the channel, we’ll keep watching for reactions at key resistance zones, with special attention to 3433, the channel top. The measured structural reaction from 3272 has been perfect and supports our method of trading level to level, always with patience and discipline.
Key Levels to Watch This Week:
🔼 Resistance: 3433 (channel top, gap target)
🔽 Support: 3272 (confirmed bounce zone)
Thanks again for all the support, likes, comments, and follows are always appreciated.
Wishing you all a strong start to the week ahead!

#XAUUSD: Early Mitigation Or Sellers Trap! Let's See Gold dropped after touching 3365 taking price to 3318.Currently ranging market showing confusion over how gold would react to NFP data which is coming out tomorrow. At this moment we are quite certain that price would drop tomorrow either from entry one or entry two. Please use accurate risk management while trading.
Good luck and trade!

#XAUUSD:First Buy, Then Sell Swing! Big Move In Making! Gold failed to decline further as previously predicted in our analysis. Instead, it continues to exhibit bullish sentiment. The current price trading in a critical region between 3350 and 3360, where significant resistance is observed. We anticipate that the price must pass through this region before it can clearly surpass the 3400 mark.
When this occurs, it is advisable to implement precise risk management strategies while trading gold due to its volatile nature. Additionally, the DXY index is experiencing a decline and currently trading at its all-time low since 1976. This development will likely have a substantial impact on the gold price.
We wish you the best of luck and ensure safe trading practices.

GOLD MONTHLY CHART LONG TERM/RANGE ROUTE MAPHey Everyone,
We’ve just released our new Monthly Chart idea, which we’ll now be tracking following the successful completion of our previous long term monthly chart idea. That one played out beautifully, and now it’s time to shift focus to the next big setup.
Currently, price is trading above the channel midline, and we’ve also seen an important EMA5 cross and lock above 3099, with a candle body close confirming a long term gap above at 3557.
While this confirms the bullish long term structure, we’re also mindful of the potential for a short term retracement, particularly around the EMA5 detachment zone (highlighted with a circle on the chart). This would offer a healthy dip opportunity, aligning perfectly with our strategy to buy into weakness on the way up.
For the bigger structure to remain intact, we’ll be looking for 3099 to continue holding as key structural support. As long as that level is respected, the long term gap toward 3557 remains firmly in play.
This is a higher timeframe idea that we’ll be building on as structure continues to unfold.
We will continue to use all support structures, across all our multi time frame chart ideas to buy dips also keeping in mind our long term gaps above. Short term we may look bearish but looking at the monthly chart allows us to see the bigger picture and the overall long term Bullish trend.
As always, we will keep you all updated with regular updates throughout the week and how we manage the active ideas and setups. Thank you all for your likes, comments and follows, we really appreciate it!

Hellena | GOLD (4H): LONG to resistance area of 3450 (Wave 3).Colleagues, it seems that the correction turned out to be a little deeper than I thought. This means that wave “1” of the middle order has been formed and now correction wave “2” is ending. I still expect an upward movement.
I believe that the maximum of wave “1” — the resistance area of 3450 — will be reached within wave “3”.

GOLD 4H CHART ROUTE MAP UPDATE & TRADING PLAN FOR THE WEEKHey Everyone,
Please see our updated 4h chart levels and targets for the coming week.
We are seeing price play between two weighted levels with a gap above at 3301 and a gap below at 3242. We will need to see ema5 cross and lock on either weighted level to determine the next range.
We will see levels tested side by side until one of the weighted levels break and lock to confirm direction for the next range.
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 20 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.

Gold: Eyes on QML Zone for Potential Reaction Before Deeper DropHello guys!
Let's go deep into the GOLD chart!
Price has completed a liquidity grab near 3440 (marked as "a hunting") and is now heading downward toward a key QML zone.
First, a reaction is expected around the QML area (3180–3220), where previous structural interest and demand may cause a temporary bounce.
After this reaction, the price is likely to retest higher, potentially forming a lower high.
Then, the dominant bearish structure is expected to continue, with a possible sharp drop toward the final demand zone around 3050–3080.
This movement represents a classic manipulation.
Gold setup: ascending triangle and Trump’s debt bombGold just formed an ascending triangle, and a breakout could send it $300 higher. In this video, we analyse the new pattern, the key breakout level, and why Trump’s new tax bill and Powell’s potential replacement could spark a major move. Will fundamentals match the technicals? Watch to find out.
Gold will exit from pennant and then rise to resistance levelHello traders, I want share with you my opinion about Gold. Recently, the price formed a pennant pattern after a sharp bullish impulse from the buyer zone (3275–3285 points). That upward movement started after the price bounced off the strong support level (3285) and broke out from the wedge structure formed earlier. This bullish momentum indicated strong demand near the lower boundary, reinforcing the current market structure. Now, the price is consolidating inside the pennant formation, slowly approaching its apex. At the same time, we are still above the support trendline and close to the upper border of the pattern. This suggests a possible breakout to the upside. I expect that gold will soon exit the pennant and start rising again toward the resistance level at 3385, which also matches the seller zone (3385–3395 points). This area previously acted as a major reversal zone, so if price reaches it, I will consider locking profits at that point. Given the breakout structure, recent bounce from the buyer zone, and current bullish consolidation, I remain bullish and expect GOLD to continue growing toward TP 1 at 3385.
