SELLERS TAKE CONTROL – BUYERS WAITING BELOW 3300? XAUUSD TRADING PLAN – 27/05 | SELLERS TAKE CONTROL – BUYERS WAITING BELOW 3300? Gold has sharply reversed after failing to break through the key 3364 – 3366 resistance zone. Price action now suggests a corrective structure is in play, potentially setting the stage for further downside before NFP week. 🌍 MACRO & FUNDAMENTAL CONTEXT The Federal Reserve maintains a hawkish stance with U.S. 10-year yields holding above 4.5%, placing short-term pressure on safe-haven assets like gold. U.S.–EU Trade Tensions have temporarily eased after Trump postponed 50% tariffs on EU goods until July 9. However, this pause may be short-lived, keeping geopolitical risk priced into gold. Key data this week will influence market sentiment: • U.S. Core PCE (April) – critical for inflation outlook • EU HICP (May) – will shape ECB rate cut expectations for June Gold remains caught between macro-driven demand and technical exhaustion — creating opportunities for range-based trading. 📉 TECHNICAL OUTLOOK (H1/H4) Price broke below the rising trendline and is now trading under the EMA 13, 34, and 89, confirming a bearish shift in short-term momentum. The 3284 – 3286 region aligns with a previous Fair Value Gap (FVG), EMA200 (H4), and structural support — a strong potential buy zone. If this level fails, deeper pullback toward the 3247 – 3250 region (major FVG zone) becomes likely. 🔑 TRADE SETUP ZONES 🟢 PRIMARY BUY ZONE: Entry: 3286 – 3284 Stop-Loss: 3280 Take-Profit: 3290 → 3294 → 3298 → 3302 → 3310 → 3320 🟢 BUY SCALP: Entry: 3298 – 3296 Stop-Loss: 3292 Take-Profit: 3302 → 3306 → 3310 → 3314 → 3320 → 3330 🔴 SELL SCALP: Entry: 3346 – 3348 Stop-Loss: 3350 Take-Profit: 3342 → 3338 → 3334 → 3330 → 3320 → 3310 🔴 STRONG SELL ZONE: Entry: 3364 – 3366 Stop-Loss: 3370 Take-Profit: 3360 → 3356 → 3352 → 3348 → 3344 → 3340 → 3330 ⚠️ STRATEGIC INSIGHTS Selling on retracements below 3348 is favorable unless a strong breakout above 3366 occurs. Buying is only valid near 3284 with confirmation of bullish structure (EMA support bounce or bullish engulfing pattern). Avoid trading the mid-range between 3310–3330 unless a clear reversal setup forms — price action here remains noisy and indecisive.

XAUUSD: Market Analysis and Strategy for May 27Gold technical analysis Daily chart resistance 3350-3400, support below 3284 Four-hour chart resistance 3350, support below 3284 One-hour chart resistance 3322, support below 3300 Gold news analysis: On Monday (May 26) during the European session, gold prices began to fall as the US market was closed for Memorial Day and Trump postponed the threat of "directly imposing 50% tariffs" on the European Union. This delay reduced safe-haven demand, but broader market drivers are still favorable to gold's bullish outlook. Gold operation suggestions: From the current trend analysis, the key support below focuses on the 3284 mark, and the upper pressure focuses on the suppression near the four-hour level 3350 line. The short-term resistance focuses on 3322, and the short-term long-short strength and weakness dividing line focuses on 3284. If the daily chart closes below this position, it will completely open up the downside space. BUY:3284near SL:3279 SELL:3322near SL:3327 SELL：3284near SL:3289

Gold Pulls Back from 3360 – Is This Just a Correction?Last week, Gold closed right into the 3360 resistance zone — a level I’ve highlighted in multiple past analyses. This week, price has started to pull back. So far, the move looks like a normal correction, not a reversal. ________________________________________ 📊 Trend Intact – But Watch 3320 Closely As shown in the chart, the uptrend from the 3120 zone remains intact, and Gold is still trading above the psychological 3300 level. That means the bullish structure holds, and the strategy remains: 🟩 Buy the dips. ________________________________________ ⚠️ BUT — Key Support Must Hold The 3300–3320 area is crucial. Why? • A break below would mean a trendline break • It could mark a lower high (compared to 3430 and the ATH at 3500) • It would shift momentum in favor of the bears ________________________________________ 📉 Trading Plan: As long as 3360 is not clearly broken, I’ll keep buying dips, but with reduced position size and tight risk controls. The market still needs to prove the bulls are in full control.

Trading Gold? Know the Difference Between XAU/USD and Futures🔎 Let’s address a question I get very often: “Should I trade spot gold (XAU/USD) or Gold futures?” It might sound like a technical decision, but it’s actually about how you approach the market, your risk profile, and your experience level. So let’s break it down 👇 ________________________________________ 🟡 Two ways to trade the same asset Both spot and futures allow you to speculate on the price of Gold. But they’re two very different beasts when it comes to execution, capital, and strategy. ________________________________________ 1️⃣ Spot gold (XAU/USD) • Traded mostly via Forex brokers or CFD platforms • No expiration — you can hold the position as long as you want • Often used by retail traders for day trading or swing setups • You can open small trades (even 0.01 lots) • Costs include spread, swap fees if you hold overnight • Leverage is usually high — up to 1:100 or more • Margin is required, but typically lower than in futures 💡 Spot is flexible and accessible, but you pay the price through overnight holding costs, wider spreads during volatility, and slippage. On some brokers, especially during high-impact news, your platform might even freeze or delay execution — and that’s a serious risk if you’re not prepared. ________________________________________ 2️⃣ Gold futures (GC) • Traded on major futures exchanges like CME • Contracts have a fixed size (usually 100 oz) • They expire monthly, so you need to manage rollovers • Common among hedge funds and experienced traders • You pay commissions and exchange fees, but no swaps • Margin is required here too — but it's much higher 💡 Futures are structured and professional — but they demand more capital, stricter execution discipline, and higher margin requirements. Just like in spot trading, margin is a collateral deposit, not a cost — but with futures, the bar is set higher. ________________________________________ ⚖️ So, which one is for you? If you're using MetaTrader or any platform offered by a Forex/CFD broker, and you're a scalper, intraday, or swing trader working with flexible position sizes... → You're probably better off with spot gold (XAU/USD). If you're trading big volume, managing diversified portfolios, or involved in hedging large exposure... → You should consider futures — but expect to level up your game, capital requirements, and discipline. ________________________________________ 🧠 Mindset: Don’t confuse accessibility with simplicity. Just because spot Gold is easier to open doesn’t mean it’s always the best choice. Just because futures look “pro-level” doesn’t mean they’re always worth it for a retail trader. Understand your tools. Pick the one that aligns with your structure. That’s how you stay in the game. 🎯 ________________________________________ 📚 Hope this cleared it up. If you want me to cover execution setups for each one, let me know in the comments.

XAUUSD Breakdown from Rising Wedge - Watch Key Support at 3285Gold (XAUUSD) on the 4-hour chart has completed a bearish breakout from a Rising Wedge pattern, a formation often associated with potential trend reversals or corrections. The price action had been moving steadily higher within the wedge, but momentum began to slow down near the upper boundary, eventually breaking downward through the support line. This breakout is visually confirmed with a small consolidation box before the move lower, indicating sellers are gaining control. The breakdown aligns with weakening bullish momentum, and sellers may target key horizontal supports next. Key Levels to Watch: Resistance: 3360 - Recent minor swing high and the wedge top. Immediate Support: 3285 - Horizontal level where price may stall or bounce. Lower Support Zone: 3210 - Previous structure support and demand area. Trade Setup (Short Bias): Entry: After retest of the wedge bottom or minor consolidation below 3285 Target 1: 3285 Target 2: 3210 Stop Loss: Above 3360 or the upper limit of the wedge (tight SL option around 3340) Bias: Bearish As long as price remains below the wedge and fails to reclaim 3360, the bearish outlook remains intact. Watch for price reaction at 3285. a clean break of this level could accelerate downside momentum.

Trade Idea: XAUUSD Long ( BUY LIMIT )✅ Bias: Long (Buy) Rationale: • 4H Chart shows price reclaiming the 20/50 SMA zone after the recent pullback — a bullish reset after a shallow correction. • 15M Chart confirms trend resumption — clean higher highs and higher lows, with strong price support above the 20/50 SMA crossover. • 3M Chart shows a breakout with higher volume and sustained move above recent consolidation. White 20 SMA is holding price well. ⸻ 🎯 Trade Setup: Buy XAUUSD • Entry: 3345.00 (wait for a small pullback or price base just above current level for better RR) • Stop-Loss: 3332.00 (below last intraday swing low and the SMA base) • Take-Profit: 3371.00 (near previous resistance zone) Risk-Reward Ratio: ≈ 2:1 ⸻ 📍 Move SL to Breakeven When: Price reaches 3358.00 (midway point = 1:1 RR) and: • 3M chart shows no strong bearish engulfing or reversal candle. • Volume on the move is rising or stable (not collapsing). This protects capital without choking the trade. ⸻ 🧠 Confluence Summary: • Trend Alignment across all timeframes. • 20/50 SMA bullish stack on 15M and 4H. • Volume Expansion on breakout leg. • RSI (15M) near 67 — strong but not overbought yet (room to run). ⸻ ⚠️ Fundamental Notes: • Gold has been rising with Fed pivot expectations and equity uncertainty — momentum is on the bulls’ side unless sharp risk-on news appears. • Caution near major US data releases tomorrow or speeches from Fed members.
