Gold : When Could the Next Surge or Trend Begin...?At present, gold is experiencing a range-bound market, with the upper resistance level identified at approximately $2,754 and the lower support level around $2,710. This price consolidation indicates a period of indecision among traders, as they assess various economic factors and market dynamics. It is anticipated that a breakout from this range could occur soon, likely favoring an upward movement given the current market sentiment. This phase of consolidation is generally viewed as a positive development, as it allows for the accumulation of strength and provides a solid foundation for a potential new trend. Once a breakout occurs—whether to the upside or downside—it could signal a shift in market momentum, possibly leading to increased volatility and trading opportunities. Observing this range will be essential for traders looking to make informed decisions about entering or exiting positions in the gold market.

Gold Prices Rise, Promising Recovery After the ElectionHello everyone, The price of gold has risen slightly to $2,735 per ounce in the morning trading session on Monday after a slight adjustment over the weekend due to profit-taking pressure and a strong US dollar. The main driving force behind the increase in gold prices remains the political instability, particularly the ongoing election between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, which is prompting investors to turn to gold as a safe-haven asset. Additionally, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and prolonged inflation forecasts are also contributing factors supporting gold's upward trend. It is expected that gold price will continue to increase in the near future. The political instability and the need for deep assets in the context of global tensions will be the main driving force of this increase. If the economic indicators from the US are unfavorable, the gold trend may be further strengthened.

Is the bullish rally over?Gold continues to show upside potential, maintaining a bullish trend. It is currently supported around the 2731 level and may test resistance at 2758, followed by 2790. If it breaks through these levels, it could aim for a new all-time high around 2880. However, a drop below the 2731 support level would bring attention to the next support levels at 2708 and then a stronger support at 2685. Some indicators hint that a pullback might follow after testing these higher levels, signaling a possible shift toward bearish momentum.

GOLD → ATH Retest. Next $2800 or reversal? FX:XAUUSD is going to 2800 or??? The price is testing the ATH and does not show signs of reversal. A pre-breakdown consolidation is forming around 2758. Will there be another update of the highs? Traders remain cautious ahead of Thursday's PCE release followed by jobless claims and NFP. Profit-taking risks are increasing in both DXY and gold. It all depends on pre-news sentiment (background) as well as actual data. The overall environment is complicated due to the US presidential race. Gold is supported by the Middle East conflict, as well as hopes for more stimulus in the Chinese markets and economy. Technically, gold is returning to the ATH, forming a pre-breakdown consolidation, hinting that there may be breakout attempts for further gains. Accordingly, as we are testing the ATH, we need to be ready for all eventualities! Resistance levels: 2758, 2775 Support levels: 2745, 2728, 2724 Price has been in consolidation near resistance 2758 for the last 8 hours. It is gaining potential. Consequently: 1) If there will be an attempt to break through 2758 with the subsequent holding of the defense by the bulls above this area, then in the short term we should count on the continuation of growth to 2775-2800 2) IF a false breakout is formed and the price comes back down, forms consolidation below 2745, then further gold may go down to support before further growth. Rate, share your opinion and questions, let's discuss what's going on with ★ FX:XAUUSD ;) Regards R. Linda!

Update the latest gold price today. Today, gold prices rebounded, climbing over $48.4 to reach $2,708.8 per ounce. This rally, a gain of more than 1%, was fueled by a weaker U.S. dollar and the anticipated 0.25% rate cut announced by the Federal Reserve on Thursday. Currently, the market is pricing in the possibility of another 25 basis-point cut in December. However, if former President Trump returns to office, future rate cuts might face hurdles. Concerns over rising prices and persistent inflation could compel the Fed to keep a restrictive monetary policy longer than desired. This outlook poses a challenge for gold. If inflation worries prevent the Fed from lowering rates, prolonged high-interest rates would diminish gold's appeal compared to interest-bearing assets, adding downward pressure on its price.

Understanding Trading Leverage and Margin.When you first dive into trading, you’ll often hear about leverage and margin . These two concepts are powerful tools that can amplify your profits, but they also come with significant risks. The image you've provided lays out the essentials of leverage and margin: Leverage allows traders to control larger positions, Margin acts as a security deposit, Profit Amplification boosts potential gains, and Risk Amplification warns of increased losses. In this article, we’ll break down these terms and explore how leverage and margin work, their advantages and risks, and what to consider before using them in your trading strategy. What is Leverage in Trading? Leverage is essentially a loan provided by your broker that allows you to open larger trading positions than your actual account balance would otherwise allow. It’s a tool that can multiply the value of your capital, giving you the potential to make more money from market movements without needing to invest large sums of your own money. Think of leverage as “financial assistance.” With leverage, even a small amount of capital can control a larger position in the market. This can lead to amplified profits if the trade goes your way. However, it’s a double-edged sword; leverage can also lead to amplified losses if the trade moves against you. Example of Trading with Leverage Suppose you have €100 in your trading account and your broker offers a leverage of 1:5. This means you can control a position worth €500 with your €100 investment. If the market moves in your favor, your profits will be calculated based on the €500 position, not just the €100 you originally invested. However, if the market moves against you, your losses will also be based on the larger amount. What is Margin in Trading? Margin is the amount of money you must set aside as collateral to open a leveraged trade. When you use leverage, the broker requires a deposit to cover potential losses—this is called margin. Margin essentially acts as a security deposit, ensuring that you can cover losses if the trade doesn’t go as planned. Margin is usually expressed as a percentage of the total trade size. For example, if a broker requires a 5% margin to open a position, and you want to open a €1,000 trade, you would need to deposit €50 as margin. How Does Margin Work? Margin works together with leverage. The margin required depends on the leverage ratio offered by the broker. For instance, with a 1:10 leverage, you’d only need a 10% margin to open a position, while a 1:20 leverage would require a 5% margin. If the market moves against your position significantly, your margin level can drop. If it falls too low, the broker may issue a **margin call**, requesting additional funds to maintain the trade. If you don’t add funds, the broker might close your position to prevent further losses, which could lead to a loss of the initial margin amount. How Does Leveraged Trading Work? Leveraged trading involves borrowing capital from the broker to increase the size of your trades. This allows you to open larger positions and potentially gain higher profits from favorable market movements. Here’s a simplified process of how it works: 1. Deposit Margin: You set aside a portion of your own funds (margin) as a security deposit. 2. Leverage Ratio Applied: The broker provides you with additional capital based on the leverage ratio, increasing your trading power. 3. Open Larger Positions: You can now open larger trades than you could with just your capital. 4. Profit or Loss Magnified: Any profit or loss from the trade is amplified, as it’s based on the larger position rather than just your initial capital. While leverage doesn’t change the direction of your trades, it affects how much you gain or lose on each trade. That’s why it’s essential to understand both the potential for profit amplification and the risk amplification that leverage brings. The Benefits and Risks of Using Leverage Benefits of Leverage - Profit Amplification: With leverage, you can control larger trades, which means any favorable movement in the market can lead to greater profits. - Capital Efficiency: Leverage allows you to gain exposure to the markets without needing to invest a large amount of your own money upfront. - Flexibility in Trading: Leveraged trading gives traders more flexibility to diversify their positions and take advantage of multiple opportunities in the market. Risks of Leverage - Risk Amplification: Just as leverage can amplify profits, it also amplifies losses. If a trade moves against you, your losses can be substantial, even exceeding your initial investment. - Margin Calls: If the market moves significantly against your leveraged position, you may face a margin call, requiring you to add more funds to your account to keep the position open. - Rapid Account Depletion: High leverage means that small market moves can have a big impact on your account. Without careful management, you could deplete your account balance quickly. Important Considerations for Leveraged Trading 1. Understand the Leverage Ratio: Different brokers offer various leverage ratios, such as 1:5, 1:10, or even 1:100. Choose a leverage ratio that aligns with your risk tolerance. Higher leverage ratios mean higher potential profits but also higher potential losses. 2. Know Your Margin Requirements: Always be aware of the margin requirements for your trades. Brokers may close your positions if your margin level drops too low, so it’s essential to monitor your margin balance regularly. 3. Risk Management is Key: Use risk management strategies like stop-loss orders to limit potential losses on each trade. Don’t risk more than a small percentage of your account balance on any single trade. 4. Avoid Overleveraging: One of the biggest mistakes new traders make is using too much leverage. Start with a lower leverage ratio until you’re more comfortable with the risks involved in leveraged trading. 5. Only Use Leverage if You Understand It: Leveraged trading is suitable primarily for experienced investors who understand the market and the risks involved. If you’re new to trading, practice with a demo account to learn how leverage works before applying it in a live account. Final Considerations Leverage and margin are powerful tools in trading that can amplify profits, but they come with considerable risk. Using leverage wisely and understanding margin requirements are essential to avoid unnecessary losses and protect your account. While the prospect of profit amplification is attractive, traders should always remember that leveraged trading is a double-edged sword—it can lead to significant gains, but it can also result in rapid account depletion if not managed carefully. To summarize: - Leverage allows you to control larger trades with a small investment, multiplying both potential profits and potential losses. - Margin is the deposit required to open a leveraged trade and acts as a security against potential losses. - Use leverage responsibly and only after understanding the risks involved. Leverage can be a valuable tool in trading if used wisely, so make sure to educate yourself, practice with a demo account, and always approach leveraged trading with caution.

XAUUSD Faces Resistance: Pullback or Breakout?The 4-hour chart of XAUUSD on November 6 shows gold encountering strong resistance at 2,756.216 USD/oz, with the 34 and 89 EMA lines forming a major barrier. If the price fails to break through this level, there is a high probability of a pullback to the support zone around 2,729.381 USD/oz, potentially dropping further to 2,717.105 USD/oz if selling pressure increases. Investors should watch the price action at these support and resistance levels for informed decisions, especially as the USD remains strong due to monetary policy factors and geopolitical risks.

Gold within stagnation zone due ElectionsTechnical analysis: Trading continues on very Low rate and Volatility on most levels is easing. Since #2,752.80 benchmark I mentioned many times on my remarks got invalidated and Gold is unable to stage recovery attempt above it, Bearish pattern on Hourly 4 chart reversed the Price-action towards #2,722.80 Support extension (Monthly Low's) and besides Sellung pressure evident throughout yesterday's and today's session, that was maximum for Buyers (at least for for current fractal). Daily chart is even more Bearish than its Moving Averages suggest (and break of former Ascending Chanel and trendline) so another candle is required to cross in Bearish values and reveal true Nature of the future trend which will restore the Selling bias according to my estimations. I am still looking for a complete frame fill at #2,700.80 benchmark first then #2,652.80 benchmark in extension if post-Election candles arrive and global economy feels significant relief which will add confidence into all asset classes and safe-havens such as Gold may lose (Investors losing interest). My position: As it was the case many times before, pre-Election candles carry thin Volume usually so I will monitor the Price-action from sidelines.

Gold has a Shooting Star on weekly The ancient 3 candle formation suggests the start of a big correction for the precious metal. If so then the Fibo lines and Fractal dotted lines are the projected stops/targets/pivots. Nevertheless the Shooting Star is subject to Technical Analysis fallacy and caution is strongly advised. Do not forget the unfolding of a move on Weekly takes weeks time & distance and the same goes for the confirmation or not of the suggestion to short gold. Needless to say that in the less probable case the formation doesn't unfold and instead swallowed then flip side to ride the continuation rally which has shown us to persist for even more time & distance 😎

Take-Profit Target: The first profit target could be set around 2664, where the next support lies, aligning with a favorable risk-to-reward ratio. Stop-Loss: Consider placing the stop-loss above the 0.5 Fibonacci level at 2699 to minimize risk if the price breaks higher.

Gold : A Perfect Buy Opportunity Amid Expected Pullback!Yesterday, gold prices surged above 2700, rising $60 from open to close. Following such a significant increase, some pullback is likely in today’s session. However, this does not signal the end of the uptrend but rather a natural price correction. After the pullback, gold is expected to resume its upward momentum, with potential to break above 2730. Based on this analysis, today’s strategy is to continue buying gold. The ideal buying range is between 2688-2674, with a target set between 2725-2732. This pullback presents an excellent entry point for bullish positions, creating the potential for further profits!

XAUUSDGold (XAU/USD) is one of the world's most widely traded precious metals and a traditional safe-haven asset. As an inflation hedge and store of value, gold often attracts investors during times of economic uncertainty or market volatility. The price of gold is influenced by multiple factors, including interest rates, currency strength (particularly the US dollar), geopolitical events, and supply and demand dynamics. When the US dollar weakens, gold typically becomes less expensive for holders of other currencies, potentially increasing demand and driving up prices. Similarly, lower interest rates tend to make gold more attractive since it doesn't generate yields like bonds or savings accounts.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
