XAUUSD trade ideas

XAU move sideways, awaiting US CPI todayGold prices declined amid the extended US-China tariff truce, yet they remain highly volatile ahead of today's US CPI data. The market anticipates the July US CPI to rise to 2.8% from May's 2.7%, with Core CPI also expected to increase to 3.0% from 2.9%. Higher inflation could reduce the odds of a Fed rate cut, strengthening the dollar and pressuring gold. Conversely, a larger-than-expected inflation increase could fuel stagflation concerns, potentially supporting gold prices. Another factor that could support gold is the meeting between US President Trump and Russian President Putin this week in Alaska. A lack of a final agreement to end the war in Ukraine could prompt the US to increase sanctions on Russian goods, which could further exacerbate gold prices. Technically, XAUUSD is trading in a tight range, holding above the 3345 support level and below its EMAs (21, 78), suggesting a continuation of sideways movement. A breach below 3345 could see the price retest next support at 3285, while a sustained hold above this level could prompt a correction towards the 3402 resistance.

XAUUSDXAUUSD Basically Trend RPrice has formed strong support above 3350 and upcoming US CPI + volatility in the US session could drive upward momentum. Trade Plan: Buy Trigger: Above 3445. Invalidation: If price breaks below 3340 / 3330 support zone. If I were to frame this as a clean intraday plan, it would look like: Since CPI tends to cause fast spikes and reversals, the key risk here is slippage. Best to wait for a confirmed break & retest above 3445 before entering — otherwise it could be a fakeout.

Gold prices fluctuated significantly. Here comes the analysis.Last week's volatile rise in gold wasn't entirely smooth, with several minor pullbacks. However, each pullback was relatively limited, and upward momentum quickly resumed, resulting in an overall step-by-step upward trend. This trend shows that the bulls had a certain advantage at the time and buying was relatively active. But the market situation on Monday took a fundamental turn. After the Asian market opened, the price of gold began to fall under pressure, with selling pressure continuing to emerge during the session and buying power clearly insufficient. By the close of trading, prices had fallen sharply, not only giving up all of last week's gains but also breaking through multiple moving average support levels in one fell swoop. From a technical perspective, the uptrend line on the daily chart has been effectively broken, signaling the initial formation of a short-term downtrend and a clear sign of weakening. On Tuesday, watch closely to see if the downtrend continues. If the price can find support near yesterday's low of 3341 and rebound above it, then we need to pay attention to the resistance near 3365, 3375 and 3385 on the upside. If the market continues to fall, then the support around 3340 and 3330 should be watched below. This range is the second rising position after the impact of non-farm payroll data. Strategy: Short around 3365, stop loss at 3375, profit range 3340-3320 Long around 3330, stop loss at 3320, profit range 3340-3465

XAUUSD falls on easing geopolitical tensionsXAUUSD falls on easing geopolitical tensions Gold fell below 3,380.00 on August 11 as reduced geopolitical tensions weakened its safe-haven appeal, following President Trump’s announcement of an August 15 meeting with Putin in Alaska to discuss ending the Ukraine war, potentially avoiding new U.S. sanctions on Russia. Losses may be capped by ongoing trade concerns, expected Fed rate cuts, and uncertainty over U.S. tariffs on gold bars after a recent agency ruling. Technically, XAUUSD failed to hold an intermediate 3,380.00 level and develop a bullish momentum towards 3,440.00, which means the start of the sideways market in the asset. Next possible target is 3,000.00 level.

Gold: tariffs confusionGold prices continued with an uptrend during the previous week, closing the Fridays trading at the level of $3.398. However, the most important information that shook the market sentiment was a potential for U.S. tariffs on gold imports. Namely, last week the U.S. Administration imposed a 39% tariffs on imports from Switzerland, while the Swiss Precious Metals Association commented that gold was not exempted from it. The White House commented on the issue, noting that next week it will issue an executive order clarifying this “misinformation”, as they called it. The RSI continues to move above the level of 50, indicating a potential move toward the upside in the coming period until the overbought market side is reached. The MA50 modestly slowed down its divergence from MA200, but two lines are moving in parallel with an uptrend. A potential for a cross is still not indicated on charts. The week ahead should bring the clarification from the U.S. Authorities whether the gold is affected with tariffs or not. This might imply a modest decrease in the price of gold, in case that it is exempted from the application of imposed tariffs. In this sense, the gold might ease till the level of $3.360, as per current charts. Still, regardless of tariff application, charts are pointing toward the probability of higher grounds for the price of gold. The concrete catalyst for such a move is unknown, but it should be considered that the US July inflation data is scheduled for a release in a week ahead. Any surprises in inflation figures might push the US Dollar to lower grounds and the price of gold to higher.

Gold Spot (XAU/USD) Analysis – 30-Minute TimeframeGold Spot (XAU/USD) Analysis – 30-Minute Timeframe At present, the price is fluctuating within a range between a key support zone and a key resistance zone. The overall market structure has taken on a ranging pattern, and traders are waiting for a breakout from either side. 🔹 Bullish Scenario: A breakout and consolidation above the current resistance could lead to a move toward higher resistance levels and eventually the main supply zone. 🔹 Bearish Scenario: A breakout and consolidation below the mid-range support could trigger a decline toward lower support levels and even a retest of recent lows. Given the current situation, the price reaction to these zones will likely determine the next market direction.

XAUUSD Gold Trading Strategy August 8, 2025XAUUSD Gold Trading Strategy August 8, 2025: Gold prices have approached the 340x area and have fallen sharply to the 338x support area at the beginning of today's trading session. Basic news: President Trump announced to double tariffs on Indian goods to 50% in response to continued oil imports from Russia. Reports show that Trump may meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin as early as next week. Technical analysis: Gold prices are currently in an uptrend channel, but the trading range is showing signs of narrowing. The possibility that the price will correct at this 340x area is very high; if the gold price creates a double peak pattern in the H1 frame, the price range of 3375 - 3380 will confirm the pattern and create a strong downward force for the gold price. If gold forms a double top pattern here, this correction could take gold to the 3350 or even 3330 area. Important price zones today: 3375 - 3380, 3405 - 3410 and 3420 - 3425. Today's trading trend: SELL. Recommended orders: Plan 1: SELL XAUUSD zone 3407 - 3409 SL 3412 TP 3404 - 3394 - 3374 - 3354. Plan 2: SELL XAUUSD zone 3423 - 3425 SL 3428 TP 3420 - 3410 - 3390 - 3370. Plan 3: BUY XAUUSD zone 3375 - 3377 SL 3372 TP 3380 - 3390 - 3400. Wish you a safe, successful and profitable trading weekend.🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
