XAUUSD – Smart Money Sell Setup during New York Session | ICT St

108

Gold (XAUUSD) has just completed a classic liquidity grab above the London session highs, forming a potential Judas Swing as New York begins.

On the 4H timeframe, we clearly have a bearish BOS (Break of Structure), and price has returned to a Premium zone within a bearish FVG and OB (Order Block).

Today is NFP Friday, and after the Fed kept rates steady mid-week, we’re expecting high volatility.

Current price action has swept the overnight liquidity and is now reacting inside a Repricing Block, aligning perfectly with the NY Midnight Open level.

🎯 My Sell Plan (Live Execution):

Sell Limit: 3306.50

SL: 3317.50 (Above OB high)

TP1: 3281.20

TP2: 3268.50

TP3: 3253.90

🧠 Bias: Bearish
🕒 Session: New York
🧮 ADR: 43 pts
📉 Market Structure: Bearish

This setup follows the ICT methodology using time, liquidity, structure, and displacement.

If we break above 3317.50 with strong displacement, the idea becomes invalid.

Let's see if Smart Money takes it down into Friday’s close.
