XAU/USD 02-06 June 2025 Intraday AnalysisWeekly Analysis:
Swing Structure -> Bullish.
Internal Structure -> Bullish.
Analysis and bias remains the same as analysis dated 16 March 2025.
In my analysis dated 27 October 2024 I mentioned (below) that price could potentially print higher-highs in order to reposition CHoCH. This is exactly how price printed. CHoCH positioning has been brought significantly closer to current price action. CHoCH positioning is denoted with a shortened blue dotted horizontal line.
The remainder of my analysis and bias remains the same as analysis dated 09 February 2025.
Price has printed a further bullish iBOS.
Price is currently trading within an internal low and fractal high. CHoCH positioning is denoted with a blue dashed line.
Price Action Analysis:
In my analysis dated 27 October 2024, it was noted that the first sign of a pullback would be a bearish Change of Character (CHoCH), indicated by a blue dotted line. Price's consistent upward momentum had repositioned previous CHoCH much closer to recent price levels as expected for weeks. Current CHoCH positioning is quite a distance away from price, therefore, it would be viable if price continued bullish to reposition ChOCH.
Note:
It is highly unlikely price will "crash" as many analysts are predicting. My view is this is merely a corrective wave of the primary trend.
Given the Federal Reserve's dovish policy stance alongside heightened geopolitical risks, market volatility is likely to remain elevated, influencing intraday price swings.
Price could also be driven by President Trump's policies, geopolitical moves and economic decisions which are sparking uncertainty and potential repricing of Gold.
Weekly Chart:
Daily Analysis:
Swing -> Bullish.
Internal -> Bullish.
Analysis and Bias remains the same as Analysis dated 11 May 2025.
Since my last weekly analysis price has finally printed a bearish CHoCH.
This is the first indication, but not confirmation of bearish pullback phase initiation.
Price is now trading within an established internal range.
Price should now technically trade down to either discount of 50% internal EQ, or Daily demand zone before targeting weak internal high, priced at 3,500.200.
Note:
The Federal Reserve’s continued dovish stance, coupled with escalating geopolitical uncertainties, is expected to sustain elevated market volatility, influencing both intraday and broader trend developments.
Additionally, price action may be further shaped by U.S. policy decisions, including measures enacted under President Trump. Shifts in geopolitical strategy and economic policymaking could introduce further uncertainty, contributing to the ongoing repricing dynamics within the gold market.
Daily Chart:
H4 Analysis:
-> Swing: Bullish.
-> Internal: Bullish.
Analysis and bias remains the same as analysis dated 23 April 2025
Price has now printed a bearish CHoCH according to my analysis yesterday.
Price is now trading within an established internal range.
Intraday Expectation:
Price to trade down to either discount of internal 50% EQ, or H4 demand zone before targeting weak internal high priced at 3,500.200.
Note:
The Federal Reserve’s sustained dovish stance, coupled with ongoing geopolitical uncertainties, is likely to prolong heightened volatility in the gold market. Given this elevated risk environment, traders should exercise caution and recalibrate risk management strategies to navigate potential price fluctuations effectively.
Additionally, gold pricing remains sensitive to broader macroeconomic developments, including policy decisions under President Trump. Shifts in geopolitical strategy and economic directives could further amplify uncertainty, contributing to market repricing dynamics.

XAUUSDK trade ideas
GOLD → Correction before possible growthFX:XAUUSD entered a liquidation phase (rally) within the trading range at the opening of the session. The dollar's rise is to blame. The focus is on supporting consolidation...
Investors remain interested in gold as a safe haven asset amid geopolitical risks and declining demand for US assets.
The key drivers remain news about tax reform in the US, trade negotiations, and upcoming macro data.
Gold is consolidating, but since the opening of the session, the price has been heading towards support. Against the backdrop of an upward trend, a trigger for bearish liquidity is likely to form before growth.
Against the backdrop of the dollar's growth, gold is entering a correction phase. At the moment, all attention is on support and the liquidity zone of 3265. A false breakdown will trigger a price buyback.
Resistance levels: 3322
Support levels: 3282, 3265
Since the price is still within the range and a countertrend correction is forming in the market, in our case, it is worth considering an intraband trading strategy. A false breakdown of support could trigger growth to intermediate resistance or to the upper border of the channel.
Best regards, R. Linda!
Analysis and strategy of the latest gold trend on June 2:
📌 Core view: short-term volatility is weak, but the medium- and long-term bullish logic remains unchanged
Key range: 3270-3325 (maintain high selling and low buying before breaking through)
Bull-bear watershed: 3325 (stand firm and turn strong, continue to fluctuate downward under pressure)
Market driving factors: Fed rate cut expectations + trade friction risk aversion + US dollar trend
📊 Technical analysis
1. Daily level
Trend: turn positive after consecutive negatives, but still subject to the pressure of 3325, and no strong reversal has been formed.
Key position:
Support: 3270-3280 (Bollinger middle rail + previous low)
Resistance: 3325 (see 3365 if breaking through)
Indicator signal:
KDJ dead cross is being repaired, and the short momentum is weakened, but it is still volatile before the golden cross is formed.
MACD shrinks, indicating that the downward momentum has slowed down, but it has not turned to bullish.
2. 4-hour level
Form: Bollinger Bands close, moving averages stick together (3280-3325 oscillation), waiting for a directional breakthrough.
Key observation points:
If it stands at 3310-3325, it may test 3365.
If it falls below 3270, it may drop to 3250-3230.
🎯 Trading strategy (June 2)
1. Short order strategy (main strategy) (short order invalidated if strong upward breakthrough)
Entry: 3310-3315 (close to the upper edge of the range)
Stop loss: 3325
Target: 3280 → 3260 → 3250 (step-by-step profit stop)
Logic: Short-term rebound of the US dollar + gold Before 3325 is broken, the probability of gold falling under pressure is high.
2. Long-order strategy (secondary strategy) (abandon if strong decline breaks)
Entry: 3270-3280 (close to support level)
Stop loss: 3260
Target: 3300 - 3325 (hold to 3365 if break)
Logic: bullish in the medium and long term, if it falls back to support in the short term, you can buy low and rebound.
⚠️ Risk warning
Fed policy changes: Many officials spoke this week. If dovish signals are released (such as confirming 2 interest rate cuts this year), gold may rise rapidly.
Dollar trend: If the dollar pulls back, gold will be supported, but we need to be wary of losses on short positions.
Geopolitical risks: Sudden news such as trade frictions and the situation in the Middle East may trigger safe-haven buying.
📌 Summary
Short-term operation ideas: short near 3315, stop loss 3325, target 3250 (if it breaks through 3325, go long).
Mid-term operation ideas: If it falls back to 3250-3230, you can arrange long orders, with the target at 3360-3400.
Long-term operation ideas: After the Fed starts the interest rate cut cycle, gold is expected to hit 3500+.
Key points: All transactions need to be combined with real-time data to flexibly adjust strategies and control position risks.
XAUUSD H4 Outlook — Monday, June 2, 2025"Premium Exhaustion, CHoCH Confirmed — Is the Reversal Loading?"
👋 What’s up, traders — let’s break down the 4H structure for Monday flow.
The 4H chart shows gold consolidating tightly around equilibrium (~3289) after a failed attempt to reclaim the premium zone. Price created a Lower High (LH) at 3360 and printed multiple CHoCHs + BOS to the downside. We are now seeing short-term distribution inside a narrow range, with supply active around 3296–3302 and liquidity building below.
The market is showing signs of internal weakness: smart money has absorbed buyers in premium, and price is rotating lower, looking for fresh liquidity.
🔹 Market Structure (H4)
Structure Element Level / Detail
Trend Shift Bearish (CHoCH + LH)
Current Price ~3289 (equilibrium)
Major LH 3360
Confirmed CHoCHs Multiple — last seen on May 30
Short-Term Flow Bearish compression toward discount
🔹 Key H4 Zones (Refined)
📍 Zone Name Level (Rounded) Confluence
🔺 H4 Supply Block 3296 – 3302 OB + internal FVG rejection zone — short trigger area if retested
🔺 Final Inducement Trap 3326 – 3340 LH zone — liquidity inducement if price spikes early in the session
🔹 Intraday Support Zone 3274 – 3270 EQ edge – support under current price, bounce or break zone
🔻 Breakout Sell Zone 3244 – 3232 CHoCH/BOS zone → clean sell-side continuation if broken
🔵 Discount Buy Area 3188 – 3172 Deep FVG fill + May structure low → possible long reentry zone
🔹 EMA Flow (5 / 21 / 50 / 100 / 200)
⚠️ EMA5 crossed under 21 + 50 → short-term bear confirmation
✅ Price is under EMA21 and EMA50 — bearish control
🛑 EMA200 (3172) sits near discount demand → strong reaction likely if reached
🔹 Game Plan for Monday (Execution Bias)
🔻 Sell Setup #1 (Scalp to Swing):
If price retests 3296–3302 → look for bearish PA → short toward 3244
If that breaks → continuation target = 3188
🔺 Buy Setup (Low-Probability Until Reclaim):
Buy only valid below 3188 on strong bullish PA or LTF CHoCH
Aggressive long possible only above 3340, but that invalidates LH
🔚 Summary:
Gold on the 4H is rotating bearish — premium has rejected, CHoCHs confirmed, and EMA structure is rolling over. Price is compressing just under supply, signaling a potential breakdown to clear sell-side liquidity.
Your edge this week lies in patiently waiting for retests of broken structure or rejection from clean OB zones.

XAUUSD Weekly Outlook – June 2–6, 2025“Lower High Locked In – Is Gold Ready to Retrace?”
👋 Hello traders — welcome to a new week with GoldFxMinds.
After weeks of strong bullish momentum, gold finally showed its first real sign of weakness. Price reached a weekly high of 3356 but failed to continue higher toward April’s ATH at 3500, forming a clean Lower High (LH). The weekly candle closed with a long upper wick and bearish body — a strong signal that buyers are losing steam inside the premium zone.
We now shift into a corrective posture, watching closely to see if gold wants to rebalance down into true structure zones.
🔹 Market Context & Structure
📍 Detail Status
Macro Bias Bullish (ATH = 3500, April)
Current Trend Weakening – LH formed last week
Weekly Close 3289, under EMA5
Momentum Shift First rejection after vertical rally
Structure Warning Clean LH under ATH confirms retracement probability
🔹 EMA Overview (5/21/50)
✅ EMA Stack: Bullish
⚠️ Price closed under EMA5 (~3288) = first warning
📍 EMA21 near 3076 — next key level for reaction
🛑 Below EMA21 → full retracement likely toward 3040–3038
🔹 Refined Weekly Zones (Precision-Mapped)
📍 Zone Key Levels What to Watch
🔺 Rejection Zone #1 3335 – 3348 Last week’s wick area — short-term supply, expect reaction if retested.
🔺 Inducement Zone 3368 – 3405 Unfilled FVG + internal liquidity. Valid only if HH forms.
🔹 Support Zone #1 3112 – 3098 Monthly PNL + OB. Watch for intraday bounce if price flushes.
🔹 Support Zone #2 3062 – 3040 Clean weekly OB + FVG. Strongest buy zone if retracement deepens.
🧭 Under 3040 = next macro structure at 2638 (last HL)
🔹 Weekly Game Plan
If early spike into 3335–3348 → monitor for rejection wick → possible short setup
Break of 3245 (last weekly low) → opens path toward 3110 then 3062
Entry on 3062–3040 → valid only if PA confirms (rejection wick, BOS on LTF)
Continuation long only if 3368–3405 is broken and held → target ATH (3500)
🔚 Summary:
Gold printed a Lower High last week — the first since the macro breakout. That’s a critical signal. With premium already tapped and liquidity cleared above 3300, price may now retrace into real structure, offering better long setups lower.
Let the market come to you. Don’t force buys near distribution zones. Watch the 3110 and 3062 areas — that’s where clean structure begins.

XAUUSD Monthly Outlook – May 2025"Momentum Meets Maturity: Gold Faces Its Final Trap?"
🔹 Overview:
Gold has delivered an explosive rally through Q1–Q2 2025, breaking all structural ceilings and printing a new All-Time High (ATH) at 3500 in April. May followed with aggressive bullish continuation, but failed to break that high, closing with a strong body but signs of momentum cooling. We are now trading inside a premium liquidity zone, where retracement becomes increasingly probable.
🔹 Monthly Structure & Bias
🔎 Component Status / Detail
Current Price Range 3285–3310
Market Bias Bullish, but overextended
ATH Confirmed 3500 (April 2025)
May High 3435 – did not break ATH
Structure HH + BOS above 2108 = bullish macro
EMA Trend Full EMA 5/21/50/100/200 bull lock
RSI Likely near overbought (watch June)
🔹 Refined Monthly Zones – GoldFxMinds Precision
📍 Zone Type Key Levels Explanation
🔺 Premium SELL Zone #1 3335 – 3368 First rejection layer inside premium. Previous wick reactions.
🔺 Premium SELL Zone #2 3368 – 3405 Final inducement from May. Ideal for stop hunts and traps.
🔺 ATH Trap Zone 3405 – 3500 Full liquidity cluster around ATH. Extreme caution here.
🔹 Local Monthly Support 3112 – 3098 Minor support below May’s PNL. First reaction floor.
🔹 FVG/OB Buy Zone 3060 – 3038 Valid monthly FVG + OB zone. Stronger confirmation area.
🔵 Macro Swing Support 2638 – 2612 Monthly OB and last HL before the 3000+ breakout. Solid base.
🔵 BOS Origin / HL Base 2592 – 2570 True origin of macro bullish structure. Swing trader interest.
⚫ Equilibrium Major #1 2280 – 2265 Fibonacci 50% of full macro range + EMA50. Potential macro reentry.
⚫ Equilibrium Major #2 2245 – 2212 Liquidity from past accumulation zones (2023–2024).
🔹 Fibonacci Context
Full swing: 1045 (2015 low) → 3500 (ATH April 2025)
Price is now pressing between the 1.618 and 2.0 extension zone, ideal area for macro distribution.
The 50% equilibrium of the macro range sits at ~2240, aligning with EMAs and historical demand.
🔹 Liquidity Analysis
✅ Buy-side liquidity swept at every major milestone: 2108 → 2500 → 3000 → 3300
🎯 Final liquidity pool lies above 3435 into 3500 → this is where many late buyers could be trapped.
💧 Sell-side liquidity sits cleanly around 3110 → 2590 → 2240 — these are the likely draw targets if correction begins.
🔹 Macroeconomic Context (May–June 2025)
📰 Federal Reserve: Markets expect a possible rate cut in Q3, which still supports gold, but with less surprise.
🌍 Geopolitical Risks: Persistent global instability continues to back the gold rally.
🧮 Equity Overextension: Rotation from risk assets to safety could fuel one more push — or trigger a sharp correction.
💹 Inflation Outlook: Any spike in CPI may trigger further bullish flows — but positioning is already saturated.
🔚 Summary – What's Next?
✅ Trend: Still bullish, but at the final stages of maturity
⚠️ Risk: Sharp rejection likely near 3435–3500
📌 Scenarios to watch:
Push into 3435–3500: Final inducement → possible sharp rejection
Break below 3110: Opens path to 3038 or even 2630
Major swing buys only valid around 2638 or 2240, if macro retracement triggers
🧠 GoldFxMinds Final Word:
The monthly chart shows strength, but we are now deep inside premium, under the shadow of a freshly printed ATH. If June opens with a wick or false breakout above 3435, expect a high-probability retracement toward 3110 or deeper.
This is not the time to chase buys blindly — but rather to position smartly at real OBs and FVGs, where structure confirms.
XAU/USD Gold short to long ideaIn this week’s analysis, price is currently positioned between a few key zones where we could expect reactions. Given the overall bullish trend, we’ll be using the broader bias to guide our setups, but there’s also opportunity for tactical short-term plays.
Recently, price has shown strong bearish structure, forming new supply zones such as the 6H supply, which is now close by. If price reacts from this level, there’s potential for short-term sells targeting the clean 9H demand zone below — a solid area where I’ll be looking for a possible Wyckoff accumulation and bullish continuation with the trend.
Confluences for GOLD Shorts:
- Recent strong bearish structure and downside moves
- Significant liquidity and imbalance to the downside
- Well-defined 6H supply zone has formed nearby
- Market appears overbought, and bearish pressure is becoming more visible
- For long-term bullish continuation, price may need to revisit the demand zone below
P.S. If gold pushes higher first and sweeps the liquidity above, I’ll be watching closely for signs of Wyckoff distribution before considering any short-term sell setups. Patience is key — let the market show its hand before reacting.
GOLD 1H CHART ROUTE MAP UPDATEHey Everyone,
Please see update on our 1H chart route map, playing out as analysed.
We started the week with a bearish gap at 3352 being hit, followed by ema5 cross and lock below 3352, which opened up the next level at 3317, also hit perfectly. We are now seeing ema5 cross and lock below 3317, opening the retracement range, which is currently being tested. We are expecting a reaction within this retracement range, aligning with our plan to buy dips.
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 20 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.

Gold Dynamics: Liquidity, Vulnerabilities & Navigate StrategyGold Market Dynamics: Institutional Liquidity, Retail Vulnerabilities & Navigational Strategies
Where Gold Stands Right Now – Understanding the Footprint
Apologies for the late update—coming back from the Harvest Festival and seeing the market unfold as anticipated reinforces the importance of preparation. The move past $3,337 on Monday was pivotal. It invalidated bear structure and signaled a shift in control, with bulls attempting an ATH breakout.
Yet, was this price move true expansion or an engineered liquidity cycle?
Friday’s close marked the end of May’s candle, offering clues via the latest COMEX delivery report. Monday’s price action validated much of what was beneath the surface—some traders saw excitement in the rally, while others questioned the liquidity mechanics driving it.
📍 Reference the latest COMEX delivery report:
Institutional Liquidity Mechanics – Who’s Controlling the Market?
A deeper look at liquidity reveals Smart Money isn’t necessarily accumulating—it’s cycling liquidity. This means:
✔ Bid-side liquidity is artificially maintained , keeping price elevated without true demand.
✔ Institutions rotate liquidity among themselves , creating synthetic expansion rather than organic growth.
✔ Options positioning suggests controlled breakouts , making price movement engineered rather than naturally driven.
If volume isn’t confirming true demand, price movement alone can be misleading. Retail traders must look beyond price charts and focus on liquidity footprints.
Liquidity Traps – Where Traders Are Vulnerable
🔻 Upper range ($3,350 - $3,509) – The liquidity grab zone
If price enters this range without strong volume confirmation, it may be a setup for liquidation rather than continuation.
🔻 Mid-range trap ($3,250 - $3,320) – False breakout danger
Institutions may cycle liquidity within this zone, making it appear bullish while actually offloading positions.
🔻 Liquidity vacuum below $3,180 – Institutional exit risks
If major players offload, retail traders could be caught in a sharp reversal due to low liquidity support.
Retail traders must question whether price movements reflect genuine market strength or institutional setups designed to lure participation.
Counter-Trading Institutional Manipulation – How to Profit from Market Setups
Instead of reacting emotionally to price movements, traders can leverage institutional tactics to anticipate and counter-trade structured setups.
Liquidity Grab Strategy (Fake Breakouts)
✔ Institutions push price above a psychological level, triggering retail longs.
✔ Retail traders enter aggressively, believing in a breakout—but institutions reverse the move, liquidating trapped orders.
✔ Counter-Strategy: Instead of chasing breakouts, wait for a retest of the trap zone—if institutions start unwinding, position short.
Liquidity Drain Strategy (Forced Sell-Off Dumps)
✔ Market makers pull liquidity from key support zones, triggering cascading sell-offs.
✔ Retail panic sells, allowing institutions to buy back at discounted prices.
✔ Counter-Strategy: Look for volume exhaustion—if aggressive selling lacks follow-through, institutions may be absorbing. Scale into long positions carefully.
Anticipation beats reaction —understanding liquidity footprints allows traders to navigate smartly rather than being caught in institutional setups.
Where Bulls Can Sustain Control – Key Levels & Confirmation Signals
✔ $3,350 - $3,509 → This liquidity zone requires strong volume confirmation for bulls to retain control.
✔ $3,403 - $3,418 → This is the ultimate bull territory —if price sustains above this range, it signals institutional commitment rather than short-term liquidity rotation.
✔ $3,250 - $3,320 → If price falls back into this range, bulls lose momentum, and institutions may start offloading positions.
Risk Factors for Bulls Losing Control
🚨 Liquidity Vacuum Below $3,180 → If institutions exit aggressively, price may reverse sharply.
🚨 Retail Overexposure → If retail traders pile into longs without institutional backing, bulls may struggle to maintain control.
Navigational Strategies – Positioning Smartly Against Institutional Setups
✔ Monitor COMEX reports for footprint shifts —commercial hedging activity offers leading signals.
✔ Watch bid/ask imbalances carefully —if bids vanish after strong moves, it signals engineered price action.
✔ Stay adaptable—market cycles evolve quickly —those who anticipate structural shifts avoid unnecessary exposure.
Final Thought: Mindfulness Over Reaction
A market driven by institutional liquidity engineering demands traders to be aware, mindful, and adaptable —those who simply react to price risk becoming liquidity fuel for institutions.
Lingrid | GOLD Key SUPPORT Zone Bounce OpportunityOANDA:XAUUSD is consolidating after a rejection from the descending resistance trendline near 3345, with price now approaching the prior demand zone around 3265. If this support holds, a bullish reaction could propel price back toward the 3345–3350 zone for another retest. The broader pattern reflects a potential higher low forming against the downward trendline. A bounce here would confirm bullish interest and set the stage for continuation higher.
📈 Key Levels
Buy zone: 3265
Buy trigger: bullish reaction from support or breakout above 3300
Target: 3345
Sell trigger: break below 3265
💡 Risks
Failure to hold 3265 support could trigger sharp downside
False breakouts near 3345 remain a threat
Market-sensitive data could increase volatility

If the direction is unclear, don’t panic, respond flexibly!Gold has been showing a daily yin-yang alternating pattern since last Wednesday, but the overall rising rhythm has not been broken. The MA5-day moving average and the MA10-day moving average formed a golden cross and continued to extend upward. The arrangement of this moving average system provides a certain support momentum for the gold price. During the day, we need to focus on the support effect of the moving average. The current 5-day moving average is near 3340, and the 10-day moving average is near 3325. These two positions constitute an important support area for the short-term gold price correction. In terms of upper resistance, first pay attention to yesterday's high of 3392. If the gold price can break through this resistance level, it means that the upward momentum is strong, and it is expected to continue to be strong to 3400-3420, further opening up the upward space.
From the 4-hour chart, as long as the short-term gold market is above 3330, then gold is still in a strong bullish trend. On the contrary, if it falls below the closing line near 3330, then it is a broken trend line, and the subsequent market is likely to form a weak shock pattern again, so the current operation is actually very simple. As long as the 3330 position is not broken, you can rely on 3330 to enter the market and do more. Focus on the support near yesterday's low of 3333 below, and focus on the resistance near 3375-3380 above.
Gold operation suggestions: It is recommended to short gold near 3365-3375, with a target of 3350. Go long gold when it falls back to 3335-3345, with a target of 3360-3370.
JOLTS data and tariff policy impactFrom the current 4-hour K-line chart analysis, the overall market is in a high-level oscillation state, and faces the pressure of rising and falling in the short term. In terms of operation strategy, it is recommended to take shorting at highs as the main direction, supplemented by short-term long orders. It is recommended that you wait for the price to show a clear stabilization signal before executing the trend-following short-selling trading strategy. It is necessary to focus on the resistance level of the upper 3380-3400 range and the support level of the lower 3330-3310 range. In terms of specific operations, it is recommended to consider establishing a short order when the price rebounds to the two ranges of 3370-3375 and 3380-3385.
Operation strategy:
1. It is recommended to short gold when it rebounds to 3370-3375, with a stop loss of 3383, and a short-term target of 3350-3330, with a target of 3300; short sell near 3380-3385, with a stop loss of 3393, and the target is the same as above.
Gold Price Analysis June 3D1 candle confirms strong price increase by breaking the previous selling zone around 3365 and breaking the trendline structure
On the h4 time frame, it shows quite nice price increase waves. On h1, it shows that this morning's Asian session has profit-taking waves from sellers, leading to gold prices worth retesting important support zones.
3353 has reacted once, many zones are considered buying opportunities today. 3332, 3325, 3315 are considered price reactions for long-term BUY signals today, which can push up to 34xx
If 3353 remains stable, Gold will push up to 3390 to react once before touching the daily resistance zone around 3408
Bearish reversal off pullback resistance?The Gold (XAU/USD) is rising towards the pivot, which acts as a pullback resistance and could reverse to the 1st support, which has been identified as a pullback support.
Pivot: 3,284.50
1st Support: 3,205.30
1st Resistance: 3,232.71

GOLD: Z Wave in Progress - WXWXZ PatternGOLD: Z Wave in Progress - WXWXZ Pattern
GOLD: Z Wave in Progress Gold is currently developing the final leg of a complex WXYXZ pattern, with the Z wave taking shape.
Gold tends to rise unpredictably—even on days without major news or strong market volume, making this a hazardous trade.

XAUUSD Trending Higher – Bullish Continuation Toward 3.485OANDA:XAUUSD is currently trading within an ascending channel, maintaining a bullish structure. The price has broken above a key resistance area that has now turned into support, aligning with the potential for continued upside. The recent retest of this level has been successful, indicating strong buyer interest and reinforcing the bullish outlook.
With momentum favoring the uptrend, the price could move toward the 3.485 level, aligning with the upper boundary of the channel. However, failure to hold this level could indicate a potential shift in momentum.
Traders should watch for bullish confirmation signals, such as a bullish engulfing candle, strong rejection wicks from the support zone, or increasing buying volume, before considering long positions.
Let me know your thoughts or any additional insights you might have!
Lingrid | GOLD potential LONG trade From the SWAP zoneOANDA:XAUUSD is testing the SWAP zone, aligning closely with the rising trendline support near 3244. If bulls defend this level again, a move toward 3400 remains in play, with the downtrend line offering resistance on the way up. A higher low formation here would signal renewed bullish interest. We should watch for a breakout or rejection to confirm next direction.
📈 Key Levels
Buy zone: 3244–3255
Buy trigger: break and retest above 3287
Target: 3400
Sell trigger: drop below 3244
💡 Risks
Rejection from descending trendline
Failure to form a higher low structure
Breakdown of channel support near 3240 would invalidate the bullish thesis

Short position opportunity at 3366 suppression pointAt present, the focus of gold is on the previous high point of 3360-3366. If the rebound fails to effectively break through this range, you can consider entering a short position. Although gold is in a high-level oscillation stage, you should not blindly chase more. If the upper suppression continues to be effective, there is a risk of a technical correction. If you encounter confusion in operation, please feel free to communicate at any time; if the current gold operation is not ideal, I hope to help you avoid risks and reduce investment detours. I look forward to your contact.
From the perspective of the 4-hour cycle, the upper resistance focuses on the 3360-3366 line, and the short-term support below focuses on the 3320-3325 area. It is recommended to keep operating in line with the trend and follow the main trend unchanged.
Operation strategy: When gold rebounds to the 3360-3366 line and fails to break through, arrange short positions, and target the 3320-3325 range.

BULLS VS BEARS WILL GOLD MATCH ATH?Glossary:
Ged = Bearish scenario
Green = Bullish scenario
POI = Point of interest
ATH = All time high
LQ = Liquidity zone
Gold since the beginning has been moving in a range and break fashion you'll see this across the board, always. A 4hr range is in the process of being formed ideally what wed like to see is for the high to be matched first. That simply would give more confidence for the bears to get in and short the market however now we sit with the though of where will it go first?
preferred bias
Buys to sell, ideally and the most logical outcome is the highs do get matched forming a strong liquidity zone that can be targeted at a future date, as price begins to fall new points of interest can then be formed (since there isn't a lot to target above right now), this will allow the market to have areas it can market when we see the bullish side of this range play out when ever that may be.
Structure
Current structure allows you to get in trades, previous structure allows you to get out of trades use it to your advantage, think. where does the money want to move next where will the banks get the best bang for their buck and most importantly where can we cause traders to LOSE, a trade you win is a trade someone else lost. so long you stick with where the big guys want to go you'll be on the right side
Bullish bias (green)
Key points get broken, imbalance fill, ATH matched (this is where short orders get stacked, future sweep target.
Bearish bias (red)
Area 1 , this is the first key low im looking to break if we see a candle close below continue to area 2, there are traders who WILL get stopped out at zone 1
Area 2 , this is our next key point in structure there will still be traders with open positions here also, again if we see a candle close below this zone continue to monitor for Area 3
Area 3, this may be a final target, however there's still POI's sat below if price shows strong signs of bearish momentum target Areas 4 and below can be open for discussion
Conclusion
personally i would like to see POI's built on the buy side as of right now before we move down simply because the market NEEDS somewhere to move from and to without that it would be erratic.
