Gold Eyes Upside Break – Bullish Outlook for Swing TradersGold (XAUUSD) continues to show strength on the 4-hour chart, maintaining its bullish structure and offering a compelling opportunity for swing traders. The market has recently rejected a key support zone, confirming buyer interest and momentum continuation. Key Technical Observations Support Zone Rejection: Price strongly rejected the $3,199–$3,265 support zone, forming a clear bullish response. This zone also coincides with the rising trendline, adding strength to the support. Trendline Confirmation: The dotted green ascending trendline has been respected multiple times, reinforcing the ongoing uptrend. Consolidation Breakout: After consolidating for nearly 3 days, price broke above the range, confirming bullish intent. All-Time High Target: The next major resistance lies near the all-time high at $3,504, which acts as the primary upside target. Trade Setup Entry Level: $3,338 (after breakout from consolidation) Take Profit (TP): $3,504 Stop Loss (SL): $3,265 Risk-Reward Ratio: Approximately 2.28 Gold is clearly bullish on the 4-hour timeframe. The trendline bounce, support zone defense, and breakout from consolidation provide a solid basis for swing traders aiming to capture a move toward the all-time high. As long as price remains above the $3,265 level, bullish positions remain valid.

Gold delivering excellent Trading opportunitiesTechnical analysis: Gold is consolidating on Hourly 4 chart after it entered my expected #3,342.80 - #3,322.80 Neutral Rectangle zone with #3,342.80 as an possible stop and local High’s. Upper maximum extension can reach #3,352.80 benchmark / Hourly 4 chart’s extension if Resistance breaks. Both ways, I doubt that Neutral candles will last for long as Gold will be ready for another Buying or Selling sequence, where another slide might be in the aftertime. It is important to note that DX found the Support and engaged the spiral recovery (# +0.81%) which can add Selling pressure on Gold. I will use this configuration and observing market closing (closing below #3,312.80 confirms the downtrend extension), where Gold is Technically ready for #3,300.80 - #3,252.80 benchmark test. DX however remains merely Neutral on bigger charts however near Lower High’s peak, adding Volatility on Gold counterbalancing mixed values on Yields. This gives me the impression that Gold has at the moment more probabilities to a Short-term uptrend than break below the Support zone. Gold continues to be contained within parabolic uptrend however isolated within Neutral range for the last #1 - #2 consecutive sessions. Daily chart is on (# +0.58%) switch and represents an cautious fractal. Keep in mind that the Medium-term pattern on Daily chart is an Ascending Channel and Gold is on its Higher High’s decimal zone with Lower levels being a potential Lower High’s Target. Total Neutrality and balance between the Support and Resistance lines is consolidation phase of next major move ahead. My position: I have expected #3,300.80 benchmark touch throughout yesterday's session where I engaged Selling order on #3,345.80 (entry point). Due news outcome, #3,352.80 was tested which triggered my Stop-loss and left me without any orders. Later on, Gold dipped towards #3,300.80 benchmark (what I did expect) as I managed to re-Sell Gold on #3,322.80 and close the order on #3,307.80. I am without any orders as Gold is Trading within Neutral Rectangle. I will Trade the break-out of values I explained above.

Pay attention to 3360 and go short if it does not break🗞News side: 1. China and the United States hold talks on trade issues 2. India-Pakistan conflict escalates again 3. Geopolitical risks 📈Technical aspects: At present, gold has fallen below the trend line support. In the short term, we should focus on the battle for 3360. This point is not only the previous support-to-resistance level, but also the key signal for judging the trend reversal. If it cannot hold on to this position, the short trend will continue; if it recovers effectively, it may return to above 3400. Before losing the defensive line (the last starting and falling point) 3360-3362, the bears will still have the upper hand. It just so happens that the 4H lifeline is also in the 3360-3362 area. If the suppression is successful, the price will enter the 3362-3284 area from the lifeline to the lower track. The rebound layout of the US market operation is short-selling, with the target at 3340-3330, and further support at 3310-3300. If you agree with this view, or have a better idea, please leave a message in the comment area. I look forward to hearing different voices.

Gold Trading Strategy, May 7-8📊From the hourly level, gold formed a double-needle bottoming pattern near 3360 during the early morning correction, showing strong short-term support. At the same time, 3350, as the low point of yesterday's Asian session correction, also constitutes an important support area at present, which needs to be focused on in the short term. 📊Before the announcement of the Fed's interest rate decision, market sentiment is relatively cautious, and gold is expected to continue to fluctuate at a high level in the range of 3350 to 3400. In terms of trading strategy, you can continue to maintain the idea of ​​selling high and buying low in the range, that is, try to short with a light position near 3400, and try short-term long orders when it falls back to 3350. 📊If gold breaks below the 3350 support line, it means that the short-term structure will weaken. It is recommended to follow the trend and go short. The further downward target can focus on the 3290 line, which is an important platform support area in the early stage. ✅Short-term Trading Strategy: 🔰Within the range (3350-3400): mainly sell high and buy low; 🔰If the support of 3350 is broken: follow the trend and go short, the target is around 3290; 🔴Upper resistance level: 3400-3410; 🟢Lower support level: 3350, 3290. ✅Trading strategies are time-sensitive. We will provide members with real-time and accurate trading strategies based on market changes. Short-term trading requires flexibility, timely adjustment of positions, strict risk control, and ensuring that you are not affected by large fluctuations.

Gold – Focus on the Specific Details of US/China Trade TalksGold prices rallied 0.6% on Friday to close at 3325 as traders rushed to obtain some safe haven protection against the uncertainty of whether the outcome of trade negotiations between the US and China, taking place in Geneva over the weekend, may yield positive or negative results which could have significantly impact all markets on the Monday open. Roll forward 2 days and Gold has fallen to a low of 3259 (at time of writing) in early Monday trading as traders digest and then react to both the US and China reporting ‘substantial progress’ in their talks. This news seems to have initially boosted risk sentiment and reduced the need for traders to own Gold as a hedge, at least for now anyway. While light on detail, initial reports indicate that the trade teams from the world’s two biggest economies have agreed to create a mechanism for further talks. US Treasury Secretary Bessant and Trade representative Greer are expected to hold a press briefing later this morning to share more specific details, so there is room for disappointment, which could see Gold rally back to higher levels, or more progress than anticipated by markets, which may see Gold extend its sell off down to potential key technical support levels. Technical Update: Decision Making Progress Develops On April 24th 2025, we published a commentary on Gold, highlighting its inability to break above the psychological round number resistance at 3500, from which a sell-off was developing. Please look back at our timeline to read our thoughts at that time. The setback from these all-time highs at 3500 did extend further, and tests of 3228, which was equal to the 50% Fibonacci retracement (April 7th to April 22nd 2025 price strength) did materialise. After initially seeing the strong bounce from 3228 last week, it appears that traders may be focusing on this level as a possible important support over coming sessions. What is the Current Situation for Gold? While much will depend on future price trends and market sentiment, it could be suggested that recent price activity in Gold since the April 22nd session all-time high, has established both upper and lower extremes of a developing sideways range, between 3228 and 3500. This type of sideways activity represents something of a ‘balance’ between both buyers and sellers of Gold. Price strength has been met by selling pressure at 3500, while buyers have materialised around 3228, the 50% retracement level. However, it could even be suggested after the price weakness from last Tuesday’s 3435 session high, immediate resistance could now be lowered to this 3435 level. Predicting the direction of an eventual range breakout is difficult, and we must wait for either a confirmed closing break below 3228, or above 3435 to suggest the next possible direction of a more sustained phase of price movement. Until such a breakout materialises, extension of the choppy sideways activity, as seen recently, could continue. Upside Focus: If potential is to turn towards further attempts to extend price strength, it may well be suggested by closes above last week’s 3435 high. While breaks of these 3435 extremes won’t be a guarantee of price strength, it might lead to retests of the psychological 3500 high, even towards 3570, which is the 300% Fibonacci extension of the October 31st to November 14th 2024 decline. Downside Focus: To the downside, traders may well continue to focus on the 3228 Fibonacci retracement level as support, with closing breaks perhaps pointing to risks for further price declines. Such moves may then lead to weakness towards 3164, which is the lower 61.8% retracement level.

Bullish or bearish? (Read description). As of May 7, 2025, the XAU/USD (gold) market is experiencing fluctuations influenced by a combination of geopolitical developments, economic indicators, and central bank policies.  ⸻ 📉 Recent Market Movements Gold prices recently declined by 1.3% to $3,383.88 per ounce, retreating after nearly a 3% rise the previous day. This drop comes amid growing optimism over U.S.-China trade negotiations, diminishing the appeal of safe-haven assets like gold. Additionally, markets are focused on the Federal Reserve’s policy decision expected later in the day, with the central bank likely to hold interest rates steady while maintaining flexibility due to uncertainties from the trade war.  ⸻ 🔮 Outlook for XAU/USD Despite the recent pullback, the long-term outlook for gold remains bullish. Goldman Sachs projects that gold will continue to outperform silver due to sustained central bank demand, which has structurally elevated the gold-silver price ratio. Currently, the ratio stands at approximately 102, up from 84.7 a year ago. Factors such as slowing Chinese solar production, high recession risks, and robust bullion purchases by central banks contribute to gold’s stronger performance. Goldman Sachs maintains a bullish outlook on gold, forecasting a base price of $3,700 per ounce by year-end and $4,000 by mid-2026.  ⸻ 📊 Technical Analysis A key resistance level is observed at $2,660, with support around $2,600. A breach below this support could lead to further downside towards $2,500.   ⸻ ⚠️ Key Factors to Monitor • Federal Reserve’s Policy Decisions: Anticipated rate cuts could influence gold’s appeal. • Geopolitical Tensions: Ongoing conflicts may drive demand for safe-haven assets. ⸻ ✅ Conclusion While short-term fluctuations are expected, the long-term prospects for XAU/USD remain positive, supported by strong demand from central banks and geopolitical uncertainties. Investors should monitor key economic indicators and central bank policies for potential impacts on gold prices.   ⸻

GOLD - FVG-Based Long & Short Setup Within Range ContextPrice action remains range-bound with well-defined FVG zones acting as both support and resistance, offering reactive trading opportunities on both sides. --- 1. Upper FVG as Resistance — Short Setup Trigger Zone The highlighted upper green zone marks: - Fair Value Gap (FVG): A clear inefficiency from the previous bearish impulse. - Structural Significance: Price has struggled to break and hold above, showing signs of supply reactivation. This zone is likely to attract sellers upon revisit, offering a clean risk-defined short opportunity. --- 2. Lower FVG as Support — Long Setup Zone The lower blue zone serves as: - FVG Rebalance Area: A region where price previously left inefficiency, now acting as strong support. - Accumulation Interest: Smart money often reloads in such imbalanced areas on retests. This zone is optimal for positioning into the next bullish leg should price dip lower. --- 3. Liquidity Sweep Mechanics — Trap Both Sides The market structure hints at: - Step 1: Induce buyers into breakout longs into resistance. - Step 2: Reverse from FVG, triggering short entries and trapping longs. - Step 3: Collect liquidity from lower range, potentially initiating new accumulation. This movement pattern is characteristic of engineered liquidity grabs in both directions. --- 4. Mid-Range Reaction — Key Pivot Area Price currently hovers around the mid-range zone: - Serving as a temporary balance point before volatility expansion. - Acting as a launchpad for the next impulsive move, depending on order flow dominance. Patience here is key — waiting for clean confirmations near FVGs provides optimal entry quality. --- 5. Summary: - Upper FVG Resistance → Short Bias - Lower FVG Support → Long Bias - Structured Reactions Around Imbalances Suggest Smart Money Activity This is a dual-sided setup ideal for reaction-based traders awaiting price confirmation at extremes.

Momentum Shift: Gold Holds Strong Amid Mounting Dollar PressureHello, 🪙 Gold Market Outlook – May 8, 2025 📈 Current Price Snapshot Spot Gold (XAU/USD): $3,302/oz Gold is holding firm above key support levels, signaling sustained bullish momentum. The $3,300 level has now been clearly breached and is acting as short-term support. If this level continues to hold, further upside continuation is expected, with a possible target of $3,500. 🧭 Technical Outlook 4H Major Support: $3,274.637 1D Floor Support: $3,265.328 1W Pivot Point (PP): $3,265.203 1M Pivot Point (PP): $3,248.445 "A test of the weekly/monthly pivot points is possible but uncertain, as current sentiment favors risk-on for gold, while the USD faces risk-off pressure." A pullback to support is possible, but it’s unlikely under the current macro and technical context. 💬 Macro Fundamentals Gold prices fell earlier today due to optimism surrounding a potential Trump–UK trade deal and easing geopolitical tensions. However, the market remains cautious as US-China officials are scheduled to meet in Switzerland. Meanwhile, China's central bank approved foreign exchange purchases by commercial banks, further boosting gold imports and supporting physical demand. "Such measures are likely to keep supporting bullion demand." — Han Tan, Exinity Group 🌍 Geopolitical Risk Factor India-Pakistan tensions have escalated, with Pakistan downing 12 Indian drones, which is contributing to increased safe-haven demand in the region. "Potentially leading to an unquantifiable level of safe-haven demand." — Ole Hansen, Saxo Bank Target: $3,500. The Support and Resistance outlined in green and red are the respective support/resistance for this pair currently for 1M-1Y timeframes! No Nonsense. Just Really Good Market Insights.
