XAU / USD 4 Hour ChartHello traders. I see gold had a nice push up over the last day. Saying that, I have marked my area of interest for possible scalp short/ long trade(s). This is just speculation for now, and I am waiting to see what the overnight sessions do. I am leaning more towards a push down today, let's see how it plays out. BIg G gets my thanks. Be well and trade the trend.
Gold Price Update: Strong Rally Surpasses $3,250 SupportGold is experiencing a sharp rally, breaking through the key support level of $3,250/oz and currently trading around $3,280/oz.
- The main drivers behind this uptrend include:
- Increased demand for safe-haven assets amid global economic uncertainty.
- Fears of a potential recession and prolonged inflationary pressures.
- If gold sustains above $3,258, it is highly likely to continue its upward move toward the psychological level of $3,300.
- Should prices break above $3,300, the next potential target could be around $3,350.
📌 However, investors are advised to closely monitor key support and resistance zones to adjust their trading strategies accordingly.
📊 Short-Term Trading Strategy
🟢 Buy
Entry Price: $3,265
Take Profit (TP): $3,300
Stop Loss (SL): $3,245
🔴 Sell
Entry Price: $3,298
Take Profit (TP): $3,270
Stop Loss (SL): $3,310
Rationale: The $3,300 area is a strong resistance level, and a short-term pullback may occur.
Level By LevelThe expectation is to see whether the price is targeting the previous breakout or not. Analyze level by level, starting from higher timeframes, H4 and H1 at minimum to confirm a valid breakout. Then, set pending orders in anticipation of a pullback for a potential long entry. Around the 1.3357 level, I will consider looking for a sell setup if the price fails to break through.
XAUUSD Under Bearish PressureHi there,
Gold remains bearish, held down by a protected resistance level at 3,286.017, combined with bearish pressure near the 3,350.413 level.
The price could potentially push up into the 3,259.035 region before experiencing a meaningful drop. However, I anticipate overall bearish momentum to drive the price down to the 3,136.779 area, with a bias toward 3,044.531.
Short Fundamental Highlights:
Gold trades around $3,248 per ounce, up 1.9% today.
Supported by safe-haven demand after Moody’s US credit rating downgrade.
Recent volatility, but overall strong upward trend in 2025 — up over 23%.
Reached an all-time high of $3,500 in April.
Technical risks loom if support at $3,100-$3,200 falls.
Remains attractive amid economic uncertainty, geopolitical tensions, and Fed rate cut expectations.
Happy Trading,
K.
Not a trading advice
Gold has a strong deep V, 3200 support is good for longThe 1-hour moving average of gold begins to turn and continue, so the momentum of gold bears begins to weaken, and gold bulls may begin to exert their strength. However, gold started to rise all the way from 3120 to 3252 yesterday. Gold rose by about 130 points, so the volatility began to increase. Therefore, we must wait patiently for gold to adjust. Because of such a large fluctuation, an adjustment will also be tens of dollars. We must wait patiently for the adjustment and stabilize before going long. After gold breaks through 3192, it is considered a strong deep V breakthrough of important resistance. Then 3192 of gold has now become an important support level. If it falls back to 3192 in the Asian session, go long on dips. If gold falls back to near the 3200 mark, you can try to go long.
Since gold has started to reverse strongly, gold bulls have begun to show their muscles. In the short term, we should not be stubbornly bearish anymore. We should be flexible and adapt to the market. The market is like this, changing rapidly. We should adapt to the market and not be too obsessed with bears or bulls. Obsession is a trap. Gold bulls are strong now, so gold is now the home of bulls. Go long when the Asian session falls back.

Gold on Neutral valuesTechnical analysis: Hourly 4 chart has turned Neutral again as the Price-action pulled back from yesterday's session High’s, testing again the Hourly 4 chart’s #3,202.80 - #3,208.80 configuration which represents Short-term Support cluster. This move is due to the sudden spike on DX as the DX is moving in favor of Gold (falling) and is about to correct the former Bearish Gap fill which is appearing as a dangerous sign for Short-term Gold’s Sellers. This is a Fundamental market reaction to the High impact end of the week news and DX Trading near local Low’s. I don't expect this pullback to last for too long, this was Technically an Selling opportunity. If one seek for more confirmation, then Selling only after #3,200.80 benchmark gets invalidated which is looking as an optimal opportunity. This shows that big Institutional capital speculate on the same strategy I apply, taking Profits on Low’s of the Descending Channel, causing Bullish spikes, which they later Short.
My position : I have Bought #3,235.80 reversal #2 times throughout yesterday's session / taking Profit on #3,242.80 - #3,245.80 belt and awaited #3,227.80 break-out which delivered decent Selling opportunity. If you Traded my break-out zones throughout yesterday's session you should be in decent Profit by now.

GOLD Price will Reject and push XAU/USD Technical Outlook:
Gold (XAU/USD) has shown signs of a technically bullish structure, though recent price action indicates a pullback. The pair experienced a strong resistance near the $3,200 level, where sellers stepped in, leading to a temporary rejection and price retracement.
Despite this, the bullish bias remains intact as long as key support levels hold. A decisive break above the $3,200 resistance could signal continuation to new highs, but if rejection intensifies, we could see further downside correction.
Resistance zone 3265 / 3305
Support Levels 3200 3170

XAU / USD 4 Hour ChartHello traders. Taking a quick look at the current 4 hour chart, I have marked the area that I would be watching to see if we can punch up or push back down. We have news here tomorrow in the US. NY open is happening as I write this. This 4 hour chart represents only 1 aspect of many when considering a trade. Time of day, what market, any important news coming out, which I check daily on forex factory. Spot gold is it's own beast. It's easy to lose a trade when you are just clicking buy or sell and hoping for the best. There are sometimes where I will wait half the week to see if a trade idea set up will work. Don't get caught range trading and even gold doesn't do it all the time, a break and retest / pullback is a great way to trade using price action, what is happening as you trade. Long post, my apologies. BIg G gets my thanks. Let's see how the next few hours play out. Be well and trade the trend.
Gold fluctuates, and there are still opportunities in the range!The continued escalation of the Middle East war has increased risk aversion in the gold market.
At the same time, the Russian-Ukrainian negotiations broke down, and Russia launched the largest attack since 2022. Under the double attack, the market risk aversion is full.
In early Asian trading on Wednesday, the price of gold soared further to $3,314. US media reported that US intelligence agencies found that Israel was preparing to attack Iran's nuclear facilities. Benefiting from the further weakening of the US dollar and the uncertainty related to the US tax reform policy and the ceasefire negotiations between Russia and Ukraine.
Gold hourly line pattern chart;
Gold short-term analysis; The recent fluctuations of 1-200 US dollars have greatly increased the difficulty of trading for retail friends. It seems that there are many opportunities in a day, but in fact, the big market mainly appears in so many times. If you can't keep up in time, you can only watch the price jump up and down. The most feared thing is not to keep up with the market, but the most feared thing is that the price returns to the same point, but the principal is gradually reduced.
Gold has risen more than 100 points unilaterally. It is very difficult to turn around quickly. According to the trend of this trend, there is a high probability of high-level fluctuations in the near future, and even a small break of the new high. You need to be more cautious if you want to sell.
From the current 4-hour analysis, we continue to pay attention to the support of 3280-85 below, pay attention to the long-short wind watershed support of 3253-60, pay attention to the short-term suppression of 3321 above, and focus on the suppression of 3340-45. I will update the specific operation strategy. You can pay attention to it.
Buy gold when it pulls back to 3280-3285, target 3316-3320, and look at 3340-3345 when it breaks;
Sell gold with a light position at 3320-3325 when it rebounds, and continue to sell at 3335-3340 when it rebounds, stop loss 3349, target 3285-3290, and continue to hold when it breaks;

XAUUSD – Bullish Continuation Ahead?OANDA:XAUUSD is currently trading within an ascending channel, with price recently bouncing off the trendline support after a corrective move. This rebound indicates that buyers are stepping in, maintaining the bullish structure within the channel.
If the bullish momentum continues, we could see a move toward $3,450, aligning with a key resistance level within the channel. This level may act as a potential short-term target before any possible reaction from sellers. A clear breakout above the resistance zone could open the door for the next bullish leg.
However, if the price fails to hold this support level and breaks below it with momentum, the bullish outlook could be invalidated, potentially signaling the next downward trend. Traders should watch for bullish confirmation signals such as higher lows, strong bullish candles, or increasing volume before considering long positions.
If you agree with this outlook or have any additional insights, feel free to share your thoughts!
