Gold Madness –5k Pips in 10 Days,drop almost 2k after. Now What?

1 340
The last 10 trading days in Gold can be summed up in just one word: madness.
Back on April 9, the price was still under 3000 – yesterday it kissed 3500, marking an explosive 5000-pip rally in less than two weeks. That’s over 15% gain in no time!

🔙 As I mentioned in yesterday’s educational post, even though I expected a major correction, the lack of a clear stop loss setup made me choose the safest option: staying out.

Well, Gold did what it does best – surprise. Just before reaching a new all-time high, price reversed and at the time of writing, it has already dropped over 1600 pips from the peak.

📉 From a technical perspective, there are some important developments:

- Price has broken below the rising trendline, signaling a potential shift on short term

- Now, it's heading towards the 3250 support zone, which is aligned with the 50% Fibonacci retracement of the recent rally.

- This area could become a battleground – if bulls step in, we might see another bounce.

💡 Trading Plan:

From the selling side, the only potential setup I see is around 3450, but with a huge stop loss, making it less attractive.

On the buy side, I’ll be watching the 3250 level closely. If price action shows strength there, I may consider entering long – but only if the market conditions align properly.

Until then, I’m observing from the sidelines. No FOMO – just disciplined strategy. 🚀
