Gold Setup: Bullish Reversal or Bearish Continuation?🌀 XAUUSD 1H – Key Decision Point Ahead | Bullish or Bearish Continuation? Gold is currently trading around the $3038 mark after a sharp bearish impulse. Price is now reacting to a significant demand zone near $3020–$3030, which has previously acted as support. 📍 Scenario 1 – Bullish Play: If price holds above the $3030 zone, we could see a recovery toward the $3047–$3067 supply area. A clean break and retest of $3067 could open the door for a bullish continuation toward the $3140–$3160 zone. 📍 Scenario 2 – Bearish Continuation: A clean break below $3020 could trigger further downside. Watch for a bearish retest of the broken structure, targeting $3000, and possibly $2960 liquidity levels below. 🔁 Bias: Neutral for now, awaiting a clear breakout and retest confirmation from the key levels. 🧠 Patience is key here—let price action guide your entry, especially around the $3020–$3047 reaction zone. ✅ Like, follow, and drop your thoughts in the comments — are you leaning bullish or bearish?

Gold: Watch for Selling OpportunitiesGold remains under pressure around the 3100 level, where previous trapped buyers are creating significant selling pressure. The heavier resistance zone lies between 3127–3146, so if you’re holding long positions, don’t be greedy — this is a crucial area to watch! Tomorrow during the U.S. session, we’re expecting major economic data and headlines. The market will likely see high volatility, and instead of a clear one-way trend, there’s a higher chance of a two-way sweep (both up and down). Trading Advice for Tomorrow: Avoid chasing price or getting caught in emotional trades. Control your position size — even if you end up holding during turbulence, a small and managed position won’t hurt you. You might even come out profitable. But if you enter with full margin and no risk control, the result could be heavy losses or even blowing your account. This is my honest advice! During the Asian and European sessions, the technical outlook favors short positions. Consider selling around the 3103–3123 zone, with support levels at: 3078 / 3066 / 3051 / 3027 / 3011 I will release updated strategies for the U.S. session tomorrow based on key data releases. Stay tuned and feel free to reach out if you have any questions. Good luck and trade safe!

Gold's target next week is 3400+Gold's target next week is 3400+ Gold, which has lost control, has completely entered the trend pattern of direct breakthrough of the V-shaped reversal structure. As shown in the figure: A=B Next, the gold price will have a greater probability of entering a crazy stage and rising rapidly. I don't recommend that you blindly follow my advice to go long. But the strategy I give is: go long at a low price. Current support level: 3220--3205---3150. As long as the gold price is above 3220, go long without thinking. Of course, those who set stop losses are smart. It's that simple. I wish you all a happy weekend.

Are You Taking the Right Risks in Trading? RISK Per Trade Basics What portion of your equity should you risk for your trading positions? In the today's article, I will reveal the types of risks related to your position sizing. Quick note: your risk per trade will be defined by the distance from your entry point to stop loss in pips and the lot size. 🟢Risking 1-2% of your trading account per trade will be considered a low risk. With such a risk, one can expect low returns but a high level of safety of the total equity. Such a risk is optimal for conservative and newbie traders. With limited account drawdowns, one will remain psychologically stable during the negative trading periods. 🟡2-5% risk per trade is a medium risk. With such a risk, one can expect medium returns but a moderate level of safety of the total equity. Such a risk is suitable for experienced traders who are able to take losses and psychologically resilient to big drawdowns and losing streaks. 🔴5%+ risk per trade is a high risk. With such a risk, one can expect high returns but a low level of safety of the total equity. Such a risk is appropriate for rare, "5-star" trading opportunities where all stars align and one is extremely confident in the positive outcome. That winner alone can bring substantial profits, while just 2 losing trades in a row will burn 10% of the entire capital. 🛑15%+ risk per trade is considered to be a stupid risk. With such a risk, one can blow the entire trading account with 4-5 trades losing streak. Taking into consideration the fact that 100% trading setups does not exist, such a risk is too high to be taken. The problem is that most of the traders does not measure the % risk per trade and use the fixed lot. Never make such a mistake, and plan your risks according to the scale that I shared with you. ❤️Please, support my work with like, thank you!❤️ I am part of Trade Nation's Influencer program and receive a monthly fee for using their TradingView charts in my analysis.

Gold’s rebound correction falls into shock?The market has been volatile recently, which is consistent with the properties of gold. When all assets are sold, the safe-haven property of the currency is highlighted. The sharp drop is accompanied by a fierce rebound, and the amplitude is not small. This was the case last Thursday, Friday and today. The current market is defined as a volatile market, which means operating at a certain position. The short-term resistance is 3025/3030 for shorts, and the support for pullback is 2980/2977 for longs. The limit is 2970, and trading is maintained at these positions. I think it is mainly a wash. The long-term price of gold has not changed, and what is more concerned on that day is the current long-short conversion. Today, the resistance of gold focuses on the pressure area of ​​3025-30. Remember, this adjustment is over after the break of $3055. Today's short-term gold operation ideas suggest that callbacks should be the main focus, rebounds should be shorts, and the top short-term focus should be on the first-line resistance of 3025-3030. Short order strategy: Strategy 1: Short 20% of the gold position in batches when it rebounds to around 3025-3030, stop loss 6 points, target around 3000-2990, and look at the 2980 line if it breaks; Long order strategy: Strategy 2: Long 20% ​​of the gold position in batches when it pulls back to around 2978-2980, stop loss 6 points, target around 3005-3015, and look at the 3025 line if it breaks;

XAUUSD ICT Analysis | Smart Money Concepts | 15m ChartThis chart exemplifies classic ICT methodology and Smart Money Concepts (SMC) in motion. Here's a breakdown of the zones and logic: Current Market Structure Market swept a prior low (liquidity grab) near $3,015, indicating Smart Money accumulation in the breaker block. Bullish reaction occurred precisely at the breaker + demand zone, suggesting accumulation by Smart Money. Price is currently respecting a short-term higher low, with probable retracement toward premium levels. Key Zones Marked Breaker Block ($3,015–$3,036): Entry area where price reversed after liquidity sweep. High Probability Reversal Zone (~$3,061–$3,075): Aligned with 0.382–0.5 Fib + internal liquidity. Pullback Zone (~$3,090): 0.618 Fib retracement & previous inefficiency (FVG close). FVG (Fair Value Gap) (~$3,100–$3,135): Anticipated magnet for price to rebalance inefficiency. Order Block + Rejection Block (~$3,135–$3,167): Strong resistance zone. High chance of rejection. Expected Play Liquidity Sweep Below -> Accumulation in Breaker Block Bullish Repricing Toward FVG + OB Reaction in Pullback Zone / OB Likely Smart Money will look to offload longs in the OB/Resistance Zone, potentially triggering a bearish rejection. Macro Fundamentals (April 2025) Recent Geopolitical & Economic Drivers: 1. Middle East Tensions: Escalation between Iran and Israel has increased risk-on demand for gold. 2.USD Weakness: Mixed US labor data released April 4 showed slower job growth, reducing Fed’s tightening stance. 3. Gold Reserve Accumulation: Recent reports indicate China & Russia continue increasing gold reserves, supporting medium-term bullish bias on XAU.

Lingrid | GOLD Pre-NFP Price ACTION in the MarketOANDA:XAUUSD market has spiked down, dipping below the 3100 level. The previous daily candle is a large doji, indicating that the market is consolidating. I think the price may continue to move sideways until the NFP data is released. It’s possible that the price will create a triangle pattern, with the current weekly candle closing near the previous week’s high. The price has almost tested the 3050 level and subsequently bounced off that level, suggesting that there may be potential for a continued upward movement. Overall, we should watch for developments around these key levels, especially as we approach the NFP release. My goal is resistance zone around 3129 Traders, if you liked this idea or if you have your own opinion about it, write in the comments. I will be glad 👩‍💻

Perfect ending, gold trend analysis and layout for next weekEarly layout plan for gold: 3.31-4.4 Reviewing this week, a total of 20 layouts were arranged, and the overall harvest was 1245pips! This week can be called a super week. After the tariff fundamentals were implemented, the market started the callback mode, and there was a big sweep in the middle. It is unrealistic to say that we can win all the games. The number of mistakes we made this week has also increased. This is normal, but our eye-catching operations are even more dazzling, and we have gained more. Overall, I am quite satisfied. I will continue to work hard next week. Analysis of gold market trends next Monday: Technical analysis of gold: The gold market on Thursday and Friday this week can be described as thrilling, with a rise and fall of more than 100 points in two days! The gold market suddenly changed, and there was an extremely violent sweep. First, it rose rapidly to 3136 without any signs, and then fell back quickly at lightning speed, and fell below the intraday low. After a series of big negative declines, the current short-term trend of gold is bearish. The daily line has a big negative downward trend, breaking the short-term moving average and piercing the middle track, leaving a lower shadow below. The pattern shows a bearish signal of Yin engulfing Yang. In the short term, it may rely on the support of the middle track to confirm the 10ma resistance and fall again. The 4-hour Bollinger band opens and extends downward. The K-line continues to decline, and the trend is bearish and downward. The callback space is larger than the rising space. Falling below the previous day's starting low of 3054 is a short-term empty point, and the lowest retracement is around 3015. The daily line is in a partial adjustment in the short term. Combined with the falling wave space of the 4-hour chart. The 3000 integer mark is the support position of the golden section point 0.5. The 4-hour Bollinger Bands open downward, and the K-line continues to decline. The downward trend is obvious. The focus below is on the break of the 3000 mark. As long as the 3000 mark is held, the short-term bullish structure will not change. The market will continue to rise to new highs. If the 3000 mark is broken, the market will form a large-level adjustment structure. The short-term operation is mainly to buy on dips above 3000, and to sell at high altitudes. The upper resistance is around 3054-3057-3072, and the lower support is 3015-3000. On the whole, the short-term operation of gold next Monday is mainly to buy on rebounds, and to buy on callbacks.

Will gold fall after its strong rise?As long as the 4-hour cycle falls back to the unilateral moving average support, it is an opportunity to go long. The lower support is around 3070, and the rise of the hourly cycle is around 3060. Therefore, today's gold bullishness is expected to consider 3080 or 3070 points. The rise will still focus on 3130.

Gold platform diving has peaked in the short term!Gold is now covered by dark clouds at its daily high level, and a rebound will give shorts an opportunity. The 1-hour moving average of gold has begun to turn downward, and the bulls have suffered a heavy blow. After the rebound is repaired, the only way to go short is to continue. The support below the range of gold 1 hour ago was 3135. Now the US market rebounded and was under pressure for the second time, so the short-term support of gold at 3135 has formed an effective suppression. The US market rebounded at 3135 and continued to go short under pressure. Today's short-term gold operation ideas suggest that rebounding is the main focus, and callbacks are supplemented by longs. The upper short-term focus is on the 3135-3138 first-line resistance, and the lower short-term focus is on the 3054-3066 first-line support.
