🔍 XAUUSD STRUCTURAL ZONE PLAN – MAY 16, 2025
No SL/TP – Only Clean POIs to Watch Like a Sniper.

🟥 PREMIUM ZONES – SELL INTEREST
🔻 ZONA 1: 3285–3295
→ Daily OB + extreme liquidity pocket

Clean unmitigated OB on Daily

Sweep risk above prior LH + inducement layer

If price gets here, we watch for top-out or violent rejection
🧠 Ultimate bull trap if news spikes high

🔻 ZONA 2: 3265–3275
→ H4 + H1 OB confluence

Reactive supply zone

FVG left unfilled + imbalance

Strong zone for reversal traps post-news
🧠 Ideal for NY session liquidity grab

🔻 ZONA 3: 3240–3252
→ Active intraday premium FVG

NY high sweep + imbalance fill

Close to 61.8% retrace from swing

Major inducement area
🧠 Watch for rejection behavior after sharp move up

🔻 ZONA 4: 3228–3235
→ M15 OB zone, micro trap

Minor supply zone inside HTF FVG

If rejected early in London, it can lead to NY sweep reentry
🧠 Less reliable alone – use with structure break

🟩 DISCOUNT ZONES – BUY INTEREST
🟢 ZONA 1: 3165–3172
→ H4 demand zone retest

Key CHoCH area on H4

Previously unmitigated base

Inside 50–61.8% Fibo range
🧠 Best zone for continuation if structure remains bullish

🟢 ZONA 2: 3140–3150
→ M30 OB + breaker zone

Below liquidity shelf

If we see a sharp drop, this becomes a must-watch bounce zone
🧠 Entry only if confirmed M5 BOS/CHoCH post-sweep

🟢 ZONA 3: 3110–3125
→ Extreme demand zone

Daily structure sweep zone

Oversold + full mitigation level

Last line of defense before HTF shift
🧠 Deep discount – don’t enter without confirmation

🔐 STRUCTURE TRACKER – MAY 16
Level Type Price Range Description
🔼 Premium Roof 3285–3295 Daily OB cap, max squeeze trap
🔼 Supply Layer 3265–3275 Rejection zone – spike entry risk
🔼 Trap Area 3240–3252 NY fakeout risk zone
🔼 Micro OB 3228–3235 Intraday trap area
🔽 Reclaim Demand 3165–3172 Strong CHoCH demand zone
🔽 Break & Retest 3140–3150 OB + breaker base
🔽 Liquidity Sweep 3110–3125 Deep discount reaction zone

🎯 Final Note:
Don’t force setups. These are sniper POIs — if no structure break or CHoCH → no trade.
We don’t chase candles. We trap impulsive traders and ride the reaction.
News will hit. Flow will spike. Stay reactive.
