Waiting for the Perfect Entry: XAUUSD Market Structure Breakdown🔍 Taking a look at XAUUSD today: it’s clearly in a downtrend 📉 on the 4H chart, with consecutive lower highs and lower lows 🔽. 📌 My bias is bearish, and I’m patiently waiting for price action to set up for an entry 🎯. If we get a break of market structure 🧱, followed by a retest and failure of the current range high 🚫, that could present an opportunity 👀 — not financial advice ⚠️.

Gold Loses Its Shine – Short-Term Sentiment Turns BearishHello everyone, great to see you again for today’s market chat! The factors that once made gold appealing — inflation fears, economic uncertainty, and the flight to safety — are gradually fading. As confidence grows that the Fed will maintain high interest rates for an extended period, capital is steadily moving away from gold and into more stable, yield-generating assets. Across the financial community, there’s growing consensus: gold is no longer a top investment priority. The U.S. dollar is gaining strength, Treasury yields are rising, and gold’s support structure is weakening. While investors await the Fed’s next move, many are staying on the sidelines — or even leaning toward a bearish outlook. Notably, the rebound in the DXY is also playing a key role in adding pressure. Gold is currently lacking momentum, lacking support, and most of all — lacking conviction. At this stage, the trend is no longer a debate, but a widely accepted short-term reality. What about you — where do you think gold is headed next?

Precision Over Emotion – XAUUSD 1H Supply Zone📉 Trade Breakdown: Caught the first entry off a 1H supply zone which is on my previous post “Bait. Trigger. Collapse!” but price came back up, tagged my entry, and stopped me out at breakeven. No overreacting. No revenge. Just stayed patient and focused. Now price is pushing back into a new 1H supply zone (📍3324–3330) with clean structure and confluences — setting up for a high-probability second shot at the play. ⸻ 🔍 Key Confluences: ✅ Clean 1H Supply Zone: 3324–3330 ✅ Still in bearish market structure — no bullish break ✅ Prior drop was impulsive, showing institutional rejection ✅ Current price action is slow and corrective on the pullback ✅ Zone aligns with previous imbalance and supply block = 🔥 smart money interest ⸻ 🎯 Trade Setup: Looking for confirmation entry inside the 3324–3330 zone. Avoiding early entries — focused on sniper execution only. ⸻ 📌 Execution Plan: 1. Wait for price to enter 3324–3330 → No entry until price fully taps the zone → Be patient, no front-running 2. Watch for confirmation on the 5m–15m timeframe → Bearish engulfing → Long wick rejection → Break of structure or internal shift 3. Enter with tight stop above 3330 → SL: ~5–8 pips above 3330 (depending on rejection) → TP1: 3305 → TP2: 3284 → TP3: Let runner breathe to 3270s if momentum is strong 4. Manage risk dynamically → Break even after 1:1 → Trail below 15m highs once TP1 hits → No overexposure — this is a sniper play, not a lottery ticket ⸻ 🧠 Mindset: I already got stopped once — but I don’t fold. Every setup either pays or teaches. I don’t chase. I wait for price to earn my entry. This time it’s cleaner. This time it’s patient. And this time, it’s calculated. “Trade Simple. Live Lavish.”

Technical analysis guide for gold in the US market!Technical aspects: The gold daily chart shows an obvious shock consolidation structure, and is currently running between the middle and lower tracks of the Bollinger Bands, with an overall weak trend. Since hitting a high of $3499.83, the market has fallen into a sideways consolidation range, with top resistance concentrated in the $3400-3450 range and bottom support at $3250. The recent price retracement to around 3250 failed to effectively break below, forming an important support level. The MACD indicator crossover continues, the green column is enlarged, the double lines are downward, and the momentum is weak. The RSI indicator runs around 44, and does not show oversold or rebound signals. The price is still in a weak consolidation stage. Analysts believe that if it falls below the 3250 line, it may open up further correction space, and pay attention to the 3170 area support; on the upside, if it can effectively stand above 3400, it is expected to retest the 3450 line high.

Gold Expecting bullish Movement Price is currently showing strong momentum with visible rejections and key zone reactions. According to my analysis First Resistance Zone: 3382.70 Second Resistance Zone: 3360.50 Support Zone: Around 3330.50 Yellow Arrow: Indicates possible early rejection and a move toward the support zone Blue Arrow: Suggests price may bounce back from the 3330.50 support and retest upper zones As long as price remains below the 3360.50 resistance zone, my bias remains bearish However, if price breaks above this level with strong volume, we may see bullish continuation

Data is about to be released. Where will gold go?Yesterday, the market expected a trade agreement between the United States and its trading partners, which boosted risk sentiment, and the strengthening of the US dollar and the rise in US bond yields further added pressure on gold prices. Gold fell 1% during the day and once lost the $3,300 mark during the session. After gold bottomed out and stabilized at 3,320 on Monday, it fell sharply above 3,320 again on Tuesday and has now completely fallen below 3,320. The position of 3,320 is very important. In the 3,320-50 range, it chose to break down at 3,320 again. Today, the Federal Open Market Committee of the United States will release the minutes of the June monetary policy meeting. Although Federal Reserve Chairman Powell remained neutral on the June interest rate decision, many Federal Reserve officials released dovish signals. Federal Reserve Board member Bowerman has turned to support the possibility of a rate cut in July. From a technical point of view, the market has penetrated into the area around the lower support of 3,275-3,295. The rhythm of the entire market is still a process of oscillating decline. From the perspective of pressure position, the daily MA5 average line has not fallen below, and may fall again to around 3270. Once the market falls too fast and approaches this position, there is a high probability that there will be a rebound demand. Operation strategy: Buy near 3375, stop loss at 3365, profit range 3315-3320. Continue to hold position after breakthrough.

7/9: Failure to Break Above 3321 May Lead to a Drop Toward 3220Good morning, everyone! Yesterday, gold tested support and attempted a rebound but failed to break through resistance, followed by a second leg down that broke the support zone, invalidating the potential inverse head-and-shoulders pattern and resulting in a drop below the 3300 level. On the daily (1D) chart, price has now broken below the MA60, signaling a further confirmation of the bearish structure. However, due to the sharp drop, a double bottom or multi-bottom structure is forming on the 30-minute chart, which may be building momentum for a potential test of the 3321 resistance zone. 📌 Key focus areas: If 3321 is broken and held, there is room for a short-term rebound to extend; If 3321 holds as resistance, the current rebound is likely a short-selling opportunity. Technically speaking, without the support of bullish news, if gold fails to reclaim and sustain above 3321, there is a strong chance of a further move lower—potentially down to 3220, where the weekly MA20 is located. A deeper decline could even test the 3200–3168 support zone. 📉 Therefore, the primary trading bias remains bearish, with sell-on-rebound as the preferred strategy until a stronger bullish signal emerges. Monitor the 3321 zone closely for direction confirmation.

Gold Returns to the $3,300 per Ounce ZoneOver the past two trading sessions, gold has depreciated more than 1.5%, as a consistent bearish bias begins to emerge in price action. For now, selling pressure has remained steady, supported by a temporary decline in global economic uncertainty and a recent rebound in U.S. dollar strength, factors that have led gold’s upward momentum to steadily weaken. Lateral Range Remains Intact Recent price action in gold has defined a well-established sideways channel, with resistance near $3,400 and support around $3,200 per ounce. So far, price movement has been insufficient to break out of this range, making it the most relevant technical structure to monitor in the short term. As long as price remains within these boundaries, neutrality may continue to dominate. Technical Indicators MACD: The MACD indicator continues to oscillate near the neutral zero line, signaling that momentum from moving averages remains balanced. If this pattern persists, the sideways range could extend further. RSI: A similar pattern is unfolding with the RSI, which is hovering around the 50 level, indicating a constant balance between buying and selling pressure. Sustained moves at this level could reinforce short-term price neutrality. Key Levels to Watch: $3,400 per ounce: This historical high acts as the most significant resistance in the short term. A breakout above this level could trigger a stronger bullish bias and revive the upward trend stalled in recent weeks. $3,300 per ounce: The current level aligns with the 50-period simple moving average. Price movement around this zone could extend market neutrality. $3,200 per ounce: A key support level and recent low. A retest of this area could trigger a more decisive bearish bias in the short term. Written by Julian Pineda, CFA – Market Analyst

Following Price Flow to the Next TargetPrice swept liquidity below the previous day’s low and then powered back up, breaking structure to the upside. Now it’s sitting above the 50 EMA, moving through fair value gaps left by the rally. I’m watching for a possible pullback into the FVG zone near the EMA. If that level holds, price could look to reach for the liquidity above around 3,365. But here’s what matters most. Even if this ends up being a losing trade, I’d rather take that loss knowing I stuck to my plan than catch a random win by breaking my rules. Because long-term, winning trades that come from impulse actually set you up for future damage. They teach bad habits. Losses that happen inside your system? Those are simply the cost of doing business. They protect your discipline and keep your edge intact. Over time, that’s exactly what allows you to stay in the game and grow your account.

The following are the key points and forecasts for next week's trend: (1): Divergence in interest rate cut expectations: The probability of a rate cut in September has dropped to 47%. (2): Weaker US dollar index: If the Fed postpones the rate cut, the US dollar may rebound in the short term, suppressing gold prices. (3): Geopolitical risks: The situation in the Middle East has eased, and gold prices may fall due to safe-haven demand. Russia-Ukraine conflict: If the ceasefire negotiations make progress, the safe-haven premium of gold may further subside. (4): Central bank gold purchases and market supply and demand Global central banks continue to increase their holdings: In the first quarter of 2025, global central banks net purchased 289 tons of gold, but the People's Bank of China has suspended its purchases for two consecutive months. The market is paying attention to subsequent trends. Gold ETF fund outflow: SPDR Gold Trust holdings fell to 942 tons (the lowest since November 2024), indicating the withdrawal of short-term speculative funds. (5) Technical analysis Key support level: US$3,310. If it falls below, it may fall to US$3,280. Resistance level: US$3,360. A new round of gains can only be confirmed if it breaks through US$3,400. 4. Investment advice Short-term trading: Pay attention to the breakthrough of the US$3,300-3,350 range and adopt a high-sell-low-buy strategy.
