4/25 Gold Trading StrategyYesterday’s long position strategy performed well—whether you closed your trades or continue to hold, the returns have been solid. Gold has now risen to the 3370 level, and technically, there's still room for further upside.
There is some selling pressure near 3370. If price breaks through decisively, we should watch for further resistance in the 3380–3400 zone. If bullish strength weakens, a pullback to 3368–3352 could occur.
If the market dips first, the 3345–3328 range is a key support area. A slow, corrective pullback to this zone could offer another buying opportunity. However, if the decline is sharp, we must monitor whether 3306–3288 can hold as a firm bottom.
From a trend perspective, I personally lean toward the possibility of gold pushing above 3400 today. Stay long-biased, but be flexible with high-level adjustments.
🔁Trading Recommendations:
Sell in the 3410–3440 range
Buy in the 3306–3288 range
Use 3380–3348 / 3328–3368 for flexible, intraday swing trades
XAUUSDG trade ideas
GOLD trades around $3,300, market lacks major impactOANDA:XAUUSD sare trading lower around the $3,300/oz flatline as easing US-China trade tensions dampen the appeal of gold as a safe-haven asset, while investors await US economic data to gauge the Federal Reserve's policy direction.
OANDA:XAUUSD have been trading in a narrow range recently as the market awaits details of the first trade deal, which is expected to be announced this week or next.
OANDA:XAUUSD has reversed to a downside correction since last week as Trump made some very positive comments and the risk of stagflation was further ruled out, and gold prices continued to fall. Stagflation has pushed gold higher and as the market starts to price in this risk, a correction is natural, especially considering that “buying gold” has become the top trade and it is technically in overbought territory.
Looking at the larger picture, gold prices remain in an uptrend as real yields are likely to continue to fall amid the Fed’s easing. But in the short term, more positive news on tariffs could see gold prices continue to fall as the market adjusts to the new conditions.
OANDA:XAUUSD , traditionally seen as a hedge against political and financial uncertainty, hit a record high of $3,500.05 last week amid heightened uncertainty.
Investors will be watching economic data for the rest of the week, including Wednesday's personal consumption expenditure report and Friday's non-farm payrolls report.
Technical Outlook OANDA:XAUUSD
On the daily chart, gold continues to move sideways as the accumulation state takes place as the market has no fundamental impact of any sudden change. With the current position, gold is not qualified to increase or decrease significantly with the sideway area of attention in the range of 3,371 - 3,292 USD being the positions of the Fibonacci retracement of 0.236% and 0.382%.
However, overall, gold is still inclined to increase in the long term with the price channel as the main trend and support from EMA21 as the main support. As long as gold remains above/within the price channel, above EMA21, it still has the technical conditions for the main trend to be up, the declines should only be considered as short-term corrections and not an official trend.
During the day, the sideways accumulation state with the main uptrend will be noticed again by the following positions.
Support: 3,292 – 3,267 USD
Resistance: 3,371 USD

Gold operation strategy suggestionsFrom a technical perspective, gold, as an interest-free safe-haven asset, has performed strongly this year, with prices soaring by nearly $700 and repeatedly hitting record highs. However, the recent optimistic expectations of easing global economic and trade relations are gradually boosting market risk appetite, and the equity market is generally showing a positive trend. Some funds are withdrawing from safe-haven assets such as gold and flowing into risky assets, which has become the main psychological driving factor for gold prices to be under pressure. If market risk appetite continues to improve, global economic and trade relations are further eased, and the dollar strengthens, gold prices may face greater downward pressure, and the initial support level will test $3,260/ounce. If this support level is lost, gold prices may further drop to $3,225/ounce, or even challenge the integer mark of $3,200/ounce. In addition, if the US economic data performs strongly, the market's expectations for the Fed's interest rate cut may further cool, which will also put additional downward pressure on gold prices.
For gold, it is recommended to short at the 3336-3343 line when it rebounds, and to cover short positions at the 3360-3366 line when it rebounds. The stop loss is at 3373. The target is the 3310-3320 line. Continue to hold if it breaks through.

Best Liquidity Grab / Sweep Strategy For Trading Forex & Gold
Learn how to trade liquidity grab / sweep with multiple time frame analysis.
Discover how to combine top-down analysis and smart money concept SMC for trading forex and gold.
You will get a complete step by step trading strategy with entry, stop loss and target.
1. In order to trade liquidity grab / sweep properly, you need to find liquidity zones first.
For this trading strategy, the best liquidity zones will be on a daily time frame.
Check these 2 significant liquidity zones on EURAUD forex pair on a daily.
The zone where the selling activity concentrate will be called a supply zone. While the zone with a strong concentration of a buying activity will be a demand zone.
2. After that, you should look for a liquidity grab / sweep.
For a valid liquidity grab / sweep the daily candle should violate the liquidity zone only with the tail / wick of the candle , while the body should stay within the zone.
Above is the example of a liquidity grab of a demand zone.
While the daily candle closed within the underlined area, the wick went beyond that.
3. After you identified a liquidity grab/sweep, start analyzing lower time frames . For this strategy, the best time frames are 4H and 1H.
On these time frames, you should look for a consolidation and a formation of a horizontal range.
Here is such a range on EURAUD on a 4H.
These ranges will be used for confirmation .
Your bullish signal will be a breakout of the resistance of the range ,
it will confirm a strong buying interest after a liquidity grab.
That is the example of such a confirmation.
4. After that, set a buy limit order on a retest of a broken resistance of the range. Take profit will be the closest strong resistance, stop loss will be below the support of the range.
That is how we trade a liquidity grab/sweep of a demand zone.
With the supply zone liquidity grab trading strategy, you should wait for a bullish liquidity sweep followed by a bearish breakout of a range on a 4H / 1H time frames.
I always say to my students that a single time frame analysis is not sufficient for profitable trading SMC.
A proper combination of multiple time frames is the key to consistent profits.
Following this strategy, you should achieve up to 80% winning rate trading liquidity grabs / sweeps.

GOLD ROUTE MAP UPDATEHey Everyone,
Great start to the week with our 1H chart idea playing out perfectly completing all our targets.
We started with our Bullish target at 3341 hit, followed with candle body close gaps to 3362 and 3382, as ema5 didn't catch up for the lock due to momentum. However, the body close breaks on each level still gave us enough time for the confirmation. The final gap at 3410 did give us the ema5 cross and lock confirmation above 3384 opening 3410 and then completed the target perfectly!!
This 1H chart idea is now complete. We can now move onto our 4H chart idea for the remaining targets to track and trade throughout the week. However, If we see price fall back into the 1h chart range, then we can continue to use the levels bellow, as they should be respected.
We will keep the above in mind when taking buys from dips. Our updated levels and weighted levels will allow us to track the movement down and then catch bounces up.
We will continue to buy dips using our support levels taking 30 to 40 pips. As stated before each of our level structures give 20 to 40 pip bounces, which is enough for a nice entry and exit. If you back test the levels we shared every week for the past 24 months, you can see how effectively they were used to trade with or against short/mid term swings and trends.
The swing range give bigger bounces then our weighted levels that's the difference between weighted levels and swing ranges.

EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 3341 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGET

EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 3362 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGET

XAUUSD Opening Trends and Trading Strategies Next WeekShould the downward trend persist and breach the 3265 mark 🔻, the subsequent support level to watch closely will be 3195. Conversely, in the event that this key resistance holds firm 🛡️, there's a strong likelihood of a rebound kicking in as early as next week 📈!
XAUUSD Analysis
I. Interpretation of the News 📰
This week, the multiple shifts in Trump's attitude towards Powell have become a key factor driving significant fluctuations in the gold price. On Monday, US President Trump bluntly stated that if interest rates are not lowered immediately, the US economy may slow down, and he once again criticized Federal Reserve Chairman Powell. However, Powell responded that before the impact of Trump's tariff plan on inflation becomes clear and does not lead to a sustained surge in inflation, it is not appropriate to cut interest rates. 💰💼
The continuous pressure exerted by the Trump administration on the Federal Reserve Chairman has triggered a series of market reactions: the stock market has fallen under pressure, and bond yields have risen. This has led investors and analysts to start pondering what the consequences would be if Trump insists on challenging the independence of the Federal Reserve's monetary policy and even attempts to remove Powell from his position with a little over a year left in his term. This uncertainty has injected more volatile factors into the gold market. 😰📊
II. Current Market Trends📈📉
The recent trend of the gold market has been extremely volatile, with intraday trading fluctuations frequently approaching $100. Against the backdrop of tense trade situations, market risk - aversion has skyrocketed, pushing the gold price to break above the $3,500 mark at one point. However, as Trump's stance on tariffs softened this week, coupled with long - position investors taking profits near the $3,500 level, the gold price has dropped significantly this week, hitting a low of around $3,260.🚨💥
III. Technical Analysis 📊
(1) Daily Chart 📅
Yesterday, gold closed with a large bearish candle with a relatively long lower shadow. When the price fell to around $3,265 for the second time, a double - bottom support formed, and the price stabilized and rebounded to $3,319. This trend indicates that $3,265 has become a key defensive position for the bulls in the near term. As long as this level holds, the gold price is not likely to weaken easily and will most likely maintain a volatile upward trend. ⚖️🚀
(2) 4 - Hour Chart ⏱️
From the perspective of the 4 - hour chart, gold is in a triangular consolidation pattern. Currently, the gold price has received effective support from the trend line and is gradually starting an upward trend. At the same time, the resistance of the middle band of the Bollinger Bands to the K - line is not significant, which further validates that the medium - to long - term bullish trend of gold is taking shape. With the appearance of consecutive upward - closing candles, it provides strong support for the subsequent rise of the gold price. It is expected that the key short - term resistance level is around $3,370, and gold is expected to start a new round of upward rally on this basis. 🌟📈

Gold analysis strategy ideasInternal Trendline (Breakout): The previously respected trendline has now been broken, indicating a possible shift in trend.
Supply and Demand (S&D) Zone: Located around the $3,280 to $3,300 area.
Bearish Rejection Zone: The price tried to push higher to the $3,360 to $3,380 resistance level but failed to break through.
Arrow indicates bearish target: The price is expected to fall towards $3,245.94.
The internal bullish trendline has been decisively broken, which is a classic sign of a trend reversal or at least a sharp correction.
After the breakout, the price retested the lower trendline but failed to recover and showed bearish pressure.
There was a clear rejection at the supply zone ($3,360 to $3,380), which is confirmed by the long shadows and bearish candlestick pattern.
This confirms the presence of sellers and a possible setup at this level.
The Point of Control (POC) and high volume node are located around the $3,245 area, which also aligns with a clear bearish target.
Price may move towards this level as this area is a reasonable value area for previous consolidation.
The previously bullish demand zone (around $3,280) has now become a resistance level, confirming the shift in market sentiment.
Target: $3,245.94
Confirmation: Failure to close above $3,360 and continued lower highs indicate that the bearish trend will continue.
This chart shows that gold spot (XAU/USD) is bearish in the short term and may fall to the $3,245 area. Traders may consider watching for signs of continued bearish price movement and possible expansion of volume in the next leg of decline to confirm the decline.
Gold plummets and peaks in stages, price trend in the futureGold prices retreated from a record high of $3,500, attracting some selling for two consecutive days. U.S. President Donald Trump softened his rhetoric toward the chairman of the Federal Reserve and sent signals that trade tensions may be easing, weakening market demand for safe-haven assets.
The fluctuations will depend on technical points. When the market returns to the technical level, the next operation will be much more stable. At least there are high points above for reference. It is just a matter of timing. However, the crazy time is over, but the bull market is not over.
At present, the price has peaked at 3500 USD. The short-term market will enter a consolidation phase. The callback will focus on the 382 split support of 3292 and the 50 split support of 3228 in the 2956-3500 segment. The limit is that it will not fall too far from 3167. These positions are also waiting for the opportunity to rise again. Each squat adjustment is to further continue the bullish trend. The next stage of pull-up height should pay attention to 3746;
In the intraday, gold opened lower in the early trading, rebounded to the gap of 3385 US dollars and continued to break the bottom. In the short term, 3385 will form a new pressure point. For today's market, the high and high are the main rhythm. The morning low of 3315 is the watershed. If it falls below it during the day, the US market will inevitably retreat for the second time. The double bottom support is 3283, which is the point for long today.
NEXT ALL-TIME HIGH TARGET: $3,635.00Gold continues its bullish trajectory with eyes set on a new all-time high at $3,635.00. As global market uncertainty fuels demand for safe-haven assets, this level marks the next major upside milestone for long-term positioning and breakout momentum traders.
ENTRY : $3323.00 (Could pull back briefly to $3095, so keep that in mind)
TARGET : $3635.00
POTENTIAL SECONDARY TARGET : $3725.00..
XAUUSD Market Update – April 28, 2025 NY🎯 Quick Context:
Price successfully defended the support + liquidity pocket zone (around 3272–3288).
A bullish intraday reaction followed, but we are still trapped inside a consolidation range for now.
✅ Valid Zones Remaining from Daily Plan:
Support + Liquidity Pocket (3272–3288): ✅ Still active and valid as strong support.
Minor Resistance Level Inside Range (3350–3360): ✅ Remains relevant for possible rejections.
Major Flip + Resistance Zone (3380–3395): ✅ Still untouched and valid — upper upside target if bullish continuation happens.
⚠️ Zones Weakened or Invalidated:
Micro Support 3310–3315: ⚠️ Structure failed to hold cleanly — now treated as a neutral zone (no strong bias here).
Intraday Pivot 3260–3265: ⚠️ Previously breached — weak support for now, not a major focus.
🔥 Possible Scenarios:
Bullish Scenario 🟢
Holding above 3272–3288 = potential rally toward 3310–3315, then 3350–3360.
Solid break and close above 3360 = bullish continuation potential toward 3380–3395.
Bearish Scenario 🔴
Clear loss of 3272–3288 = risk of a sharper selloff toward lower discount zones (~3220–3240).
🧠 Extra Observations:
Current structure = sideways/consolidation between buyers and sellers.
Short-term momentum (M15–M30) is trying to lean bullish but without a confirmed HH yet.
HTF bias (H1–H4) remains slightly bullish as long as price holds above the 3272–3288 support zone.
📢 Final Note:
🏹 Patience is key. Let price react around the zones — we are ready and disciplined to execute based on real confirmation, not emotions.
✨ Final Friendly Message:
"We’ve already done the heavy lifting by marking the battlefield. 🛡️ Now it’s all about patience, precision, and letting Goldie show its next move. 📈✨
Stay sharp, stay humble – and remember: we react, not predict. 🎯

XAUUSD Downtrend Continues- Is 3,175 the Next Stop?OANDA:XAUUSD is currently trading within a well-defined descending channel, with price action consistently forming lower highs and lower lows. This structure reflects sustained bearish momentum, and sellers continue to dominate the overall direction.
The recent upward move appears to be a technical rebound, with price approaching a potential resistance zone near the upper boundary of the channel. This area may now serve as a supply zone after acting as previous support, making it an important region for potential rejection.
If the resistance holds, a rejection here could lead to the continuation of the bearish trend, with a potential move targeting the support area around 3,175, aligning with the lower boundary of the descending channel.
However, failure to hold below this level could invalidate the bearish scenario and increase the likelihood of a retest toward the upper boundary of the channel.
Traders should monitor for clear rejection signals at resistance, such as bearish engulfing candles or strong rejection wicks, or alternatively, wait for breakout confirmation before considering a trend shift. As always, proper risk management remains essential.
XAUUSD/GOLD | 4H | SWING TRADEHey There,

Gold price up or down?Gold has been fluctuating at the bottom in recent days. The large range is obviously 3260-3370, and the small range changes every day. On Tuesday, it was 3352-3300. The overall trend was first falling and then rising, but the decline was stronger than the rise. For the time being, gold is still weak. On the upside, pay attention to the break of 3370. If 3370 breaks, look at 3420-3500. The operation idea remains unchanged. Today, we still look for low points to go long. The support below the small cycle is around 3300-3280. These two supports are necessary points for going long today.
Gold Trading Plan: Liquidity Grabs, Pullback, and UptrendHello Ladies and Gentlemen!
Based on recent news and Trump’s turbulence, we are closely following macroeconomics, the ongoing tariff wars, and geopolitical events. Gold is showing signs of exhaustion after last week's pullback. While we see a recovery, we must remember that not everything we see can be trusted. However, based on our analysis of the current situation and an understanding of market execution and liquidity grabs, we expect a pullback that could confirm the uptrend — providing a potential opportunity to go long.
Here’s the plan:
1. Double check at the current liquidation level
2. Wait for a pullback around a key level below.
3. Confirm the continuation of the uptrend.
We must carefully monitor each market session and pay close attention to macroeconomic news releases, as the market may react sharply by grabbing liquidity. It will be interesting to see how far we can go from here with liquidity runs and whether additional pullbacks will occur. For now, we remain patient and wait for clear confirmation signals.
