Geopolitical Spike Fades Fast – Gold Eyes 3300

2 505
As highlighted in Friday’s analysis, the daily and short-term charts remain messy, but the weekly chart is leaning clearly bearish – with a potential Dark Cloud Cover candlestick formation now confirmed.

🌍 Geopolitical Gap Up... and Quick Rejection

Monday’s Asian open brought a gap up, triggered by renewed tensions in the Middle East. But price failed to break above 3400 and quickly reversed – a textbook sign of weakness, not strength.

🧭 Technical View:

- The weekly candle closed as a Dark Cloud Cover, a strong bearish reversal signal

- The lack of follow-through after the gap up further confirms sellers are still in control

- Price remains below the key 3400 level, showing no bullish momentum behind recent spikes

📌 Trading Plan:
I continue to sell rallies, with an initial target near 3300. If bearish momentum builds, lower levels are in play.

Let the chart lead – don’t get distracted by the noise.
