Gold fluctuates. Will it break through resistance and start to rWe analyzed the fundamentals and technical aspects comprehensively over the weekend, and the overall trend tends to be upward.
The Asian market opened, and the price rose to around $3,250 and fell back; in yesterday's analysis, I thought that the Asian market would rise rapidly after the opening due to the impact of the US sovereign credit rating. As I predicted, the opening in the morning quickly rose to the intraday high of $3,250, and then began to fall. Finally, it fell to $3,210 and strengthened again, and the trend was the same as my analysis.
From the current market, gold continues to fluctuate greatly. It is relatively strong at present, but it is suppressed by the $3,250-3,255 area. Therefore, it is expected that the price will continue to rise after adjustments below $3,250; if the price stabilizes above $3,210, there is still room for the price to rise. Below this, it will start a downtrend that could potentially hit last week’s cycle low of $3,150.
In the short term, we need to pay attention to the support level of $3225. If it breaks through the resistance level of $3250-55, it will open up room for growth. We will further pay attention to the high point of $3270-3290.
Until the price breaks through the upward resistance zone of $3250-3255 with a strong force, it is recommended not to adopt a long strategy.

The recent gold short position has a perfect harvestIt can be said that the market of gold on Wednesday was mainly range-bound. After the US market, gold began to follow a unilateral decline pattern, with the lowest reaching the 3173 line. The current rebound of gold is not strong. On the rebound, we will focus on the 3206-3210 line for suppression at the top and 3154-3154 at the bottom. 3160 is a first-line support. The general trend is still mainly rebounding and shorting. We continue to rebound and take advantage of the trend to intervene in short orders and be a stable trader. I have always been here. If your current gold operation is not ideal, I hope that your investment can avoid detours. Welcome to communicate!
Judging from the 4-hour analysis, the upper side is currently focusing on the short-term suppression of the 3206-3210 first line. The counter-draw relies on this position to continue to go short first and then fall back. Before breaking through and standing at this position, the counter-draw main short-term rhythm will remain unchanged. The short-term support below is around 3154-3160, with interval operations as the main focus.
Gold operation strategy:
Gold rebounds and goes short at 3206-3210 line, stop loss at 3219, target 3160-3165 line, continue to hold if the position is broken;
Gold fell sharply and rebounded to continue shorting!Technical analysis of gold: After stabilizing at 3222 yesterday, the rebound was weak and stopped at 3244. After the European session fluctuated, it fell below the 3200 integer mark and a diving market appeared. The lowest intraday price fell to 3168 US dollars. This means that the support of 3200 has failed, and the price of the disk has increased its retracement. The saturated and sinister closing of the daily line means that there is still room for continuation during the day! After gold fell below 3200 this week, the current trend is as shown in the figure. The end of this wave is tentatively set at around 2950. There may be a rebound during the period, but it is only a rebound. After the news fades, it is a rebound in the analysis after the 9th of this month. It emphasizes that the gold price of 3500 is a top to look at the retracement, and also gives a short-selling strategy and a staged support position below. Now that the support level has been broken one after another, we can continue to look at the target according to the trend.
Now let's make a brief analysis of the hourly chart. Gold prices must be repaired after a sharp drop. One is to adjust and repair by shocks, and the other is to rebound and repair. Under this extreme downward trend, gold does not have the conditions to rebound, so I think the rebound here at 3120 is just caused by some short orders choosing to sell at a profit, so the market will continue to fall. Now the upper side mainly focuses on two positions. The first is the previous low point of 3168 during the decline, and the other is the starting point of the early trading wave near 3192. If the rebound does not exceed these two positions, we can continue to see gold testing or even breaking the just low point of 3120. The lower ladder support focuses on 3088. On the whole, today's short-term operation strategy for gold is to short on rebounds and to buy on pullbacks. The upper short-term focus is on the 3170-3192 line of resistance, and the lower short-term focus is on the 3120-3100 line of support. Friends must keep up with the rhythm.
Short position strategy:
Strategy 1: Short 20% of the position in batches near 3168-3172 in the early trading of gold, stop loss 10 points, target near 3140-3120, and look at 3100 line if it breaks;
Long position strategy:
Strategy 2: Buy 20% of the position in batches near 3100-3105 when gold falls back, stop loss 10 points, target near 3130-3150, and look at 3170 line if it breaks;
Gold's V-shaped reversal restarts its upward trend!Technical analysis of gold: Gold has a perfect V-shaped reversal today. It opened at 3177 and fell unilaterally in the Asian session. After touching 3120, it rose slowly. As of the time of writing, it has completely recovered its decline and is currently trading around 3220. I have analyzed the European session. After the gold price broke through the extreme drop of 3200, it needs to be repaired, but it has taken another rebound correction. The analysis also gave attention to 3198 to 3202 to continue to be bearish. With the slow rise and break, the bearish view is invalid. Now make a new analysis.
From a technical point of view, gold is now back above 3200, and the daily line is a big positive. It is undoubtedly absolutely strong. The key point is the gains and losses of 3200. If the retracement does not exceed 3200, then gold is extremely strong. On Friday, we will continue to see the daily line closing positive rise, but if the retracement is below 3200, the daily line cycle may close again, and there will be a continuous rebound to 3235 and 3260. Therefore, the key point today is to pay attention to the gains and losses of 3200.
The performance of the 4-hour cycle may now bottom out in the medium term. After the decline and rebound, the 4-hour mid-term Bollinger opening is temporarily strong, but if the US market rebounds continuously and stands firm at 3200, there will be a continuous positive pattern at the bottom, breaking the 5-day and 10-day moving averages, then there is a great possibility that it will go to 3235. Therefore, gold in the late trading should not be inertially bearish because of the decline on Wednesday. Even if it is bearish, it is necessary to observe the gains and losses of 3200. As for trading, first pay attention to 3200 below and try to buy, and see if 3230 breaks and 3250 breaks.
On the whole, today's short-term operation of gold suggests that callbacks should be the main focus, and rebound shorts should be supplemented. The top short-term focus is on the first-line resistance of 3250-365, and the bottom short-term focus is on the first-line support of 3193-3200. All friends must keep up with the rhythm.
Gold intraday trading strategyFrom the 4-hour line analysis, today's lower support continues to focus on around 3170-75, strong support is at the 3150 mark, and upper pressure is around 3253-60. Relying on this range as a whole, the main tone of high-altitude and low-multiple cycles remains unchanged. In the middle position, watch more and do less, be cautious in chasing orders, and wait patiently for key points to enter the market.
Gold operation strategy:
1. If gold falls back to 3170-75 and does not break, hold a light long position; if it falls back to 3150-55, add a long position; stop loss at 3144; target at 3226-3230; continue to hold if it breaks;
2. If gold rebounds to 3240-45 and does not break, hold a light short position; if it rebounds to 3253-60, add a short position; stop loss at 3266; target at 3275-80; continue to hold if it breaks;

It’s the right time to shortUS President Trump recently criticized Fed Chairman Powell again, calling him "slow to act" and emphasizing that the Fed should cut interest rates as soon as possible to support the economy. Trump believes that delaying interest rate cuts may lead to the risk of recession in the US economy, but the Fed still takes inflation and employment data as the core of decision-making, and the two sides have obvious differences in policy positions.
At present, the Fed's interest rate cut expectations have been postponed and the magnitude has been reduced. Coupled with the expectation of rising US bond yields, the gold market sentiment has weakened. The world's largest gold ETF recently reduced its holdings by 8.98 tons to 918.73 tons, reflecting the cooling of institutions' short-term bullish enthusiasm for gold. Technically, gold prices continued to weaken after breaking through key support last week, and the weekly closing was negative, suggesting that shorts were dominant; the daily level was constrained by the 20-day moving average, and the volatile downward trend may continue in the short term. Focus on the 3250-3265 line resistance during the day. If it cannot break through, the $3,200 mark below may face a test.
Gold recommendation: short sell when it rebounds to 3245-3252 range. Target 3230-3220.
Bullish Inflation Data Fuels Gold Rebound — Impulsive Waves!?Gold ( OANDA:XAUUSD ) started to fall from the Resistance zone($3,280-$3,245) as I expected in the previous idea , but 50_SMA(Daily) and Support lines were able to hold Gold .
----------------------------------
Today, key U.S. economic data was released:
Core PPI m/m: -0.4% (vs. 0.3% forecast)
Core Retail Sales m/m: 0.1% (vs. 0.3% expected)
PPI m/m: -0.5% (vs. 0.2% forecast)
Retail Sales m/m: 0.1% (in line)
Unemployment Claims: 229K (as expected)
Outlook :
The weaker-than-expected inflation data, especially the PPI figures, indicate easing inflationary pressures. This may increase expectations for potential Fed rate cuts, which generally supports gold as a non-yielding asset.
Conclusion :
Today’s data is overall bullish for gold. Watch for continued upside if sentiment shifts further toward dovish Fed expectations. However, keep an eye on upcoming Fed commentary for confirmation.
----------------------------------
Gold is moving above the Heavy Support zone($3,200-$3,136) and has managed to break the Resistance lines .
In terms of Elliott Wave theory , Gold seems to have completed the corrective waves , and we can expect the start of an impulsive wave . Breaking the Resistance zone($3,280-$3,245) can be a good sign for the start of an impulsive wave and a gold pump .
I expect Gold to start rising again after a pullback to the Resistance lines(broken) , probably from the Fibonacci Levels inside the chart , and attack the Resistance zone($3,280-$3,245) .
Note: If Gold touches $3,154 , we can expect more dumps.

Yield Wars and Crypto Surge: Is Gold Losing Its Luster?Gold currently lacks fundamental backing, as macroeconomic conditions continue to favor alternative investment vehicles. Surging U.S. Treasury yields have diminished the appeal of non-yielding assets like gold, while Bitcoin’s ascent beyond the $100,000 mark indicates a significant shift in risk-on sentiment. Once considered the premier safe-haven asset, gold has seen substantial capital outflows—particularly after President Trump's inauguration—as institutional interest shifted toward cryptocurrencies and government bonds.
From a technical perspective, gold is currently testing a key supply zone around the 3250 level. A confirmed Break of Structure (BOS) would require a strong move above the 3255 area. However, should a 4-hour candle close below this zone, it would reinforce bearish intent and potentially trigger a 300-pip correction. With both macro and technical factors aligning, the directional bias remains clearly defined—further analysis is unnecessary at this stage.
GOLD - Near CUT N REVERSE area? What's next??#GOLD.. market perfectly bounced back from a noisy region around 3120
Now market just near to his current major area that is 3251-52
Keep close that area , market holds multiple times in history.
Note: that is our cut n reverse area and we will go for cut n reverse above that on confirmation.
Good luck
Trade wisely
XAUUSD:Short mainly
Gold continued its pullback last week, bouncing back after meeting key support and closing below the negative shadow line. At the present stage, the trend is relying on the key support level shock, and the rebound has not made a breakthrough, the pressure after the retreat of risk aversion is more and more obvious, and there is still the possibility of deepening the decline.
Today's trend personal expected sideways shock, short-term pressure above 3245-3250, can be around this area short, below the first support to see 3200, after breaking the 3145-3150.
This week's overall operating range relies on the 3145-3250 range band.

XAUUSD at the Crossroads: Breakout or Breakdown?OANDA:XAUUSD Gold (XAUUSD) is trading around $3,237, currently testing a descending trendline and minor resistance. A clear breakout above this level could open the way to retest the $3,289 resistance area, followed by the $3,435 recent high and potentially the all-time high near $3,498.
Failure to break higher may see the price remain range-bound between $3,240 and $3,289. A break below support at $3,123 would be bearish and could trigger a drop toward $3,050.
Fundamental Drivers:
Moody’s US credit downgrade continues to support safe-haven flows
Fed commentary and trade uncertainty cap directional clarity
Higher Treasury yields remain a headwind for Gold
📌 Key Levels:
Minor resistance: $3,240

Gold Price Surge Will This Be the Catalyst for the Next Breakout💥 Gold Price Surge: Will This Be the Catalyst for the Next Breakout? | Trading Plan for Today 📊
📊 Market Overview:
✔️ Gold (XAU/USD) has shown a strong recovery following significant geopolitical and economic developments over the weekend. Key factors driving this rally include:
✔️ Putin’s Rejection of Peace Talks: If the conflict intensifies, we may see a surge in demand for safe-haven assets like gold.
✔️ US Credit Downgrade: Rising concerns over US debt and bond yields could drive more investors back into gold.
✔️ Trump’s Tariff Threat: Although less aggressive than before, Trump’s volatility still poses risks to market stability, with gold remaining a key hedge.
✔️ These combined factors have driven a gap up of over 20 points during the early Asia session. Should these issues remain unresolved, gold could be set for a strong move back toward its previous All-Time High (ATH).
📉 Technical Analysis:
✔️ The chart is showing an increasingly bullish setup. EMA 13 has crossed above both EMA 34 and EMA 200 on the M30 chart, suggesting that the market is primed for a breakout.
✔️ We’re seeing the potential for a $100–$200 rally per ounce, should the bullish momentum persist.
✔️ Given the current market volatility, geopolitical events could cause sharp price movements. A breakout of the current trendline may indicate that we are witnessing a retest before the next significant surge.

Gold intraday trading strategyGold opened at 3240 today and then rushed to 3252, then touched pressure and stepped back. We also gave a short position at 3240 and a short position at 3256-6. After all, there is a lot of pressure from above, and the technical side also needs to repair the strategy, so we gave a short entry at 3238-40, and the target is 3215. So far, the lowest point of the retracement is around 3214, which is also successfully reached our target position. Today's Asian session's high and retracement is completely due to the need for technical adjustments. Yesterday, it bottomed out and rebounded, with an increase of more than one hundred US dollars. The technical side is weak and needs a correction. This is the reason why I gave the short position.
Judging from the current 4-hour market trend, the upper side pays attention to the important suppression of 3258-60, and the lower side pays attention to the support of 3200-3210. The current bulls of gold are temporarily weak and falling back, but the current operation is still mainly to go long after the rebound.
The latest gold operation strategyFrom a technical perspective, gold prices experienced a unilateral decline on Thursday, hitting a key support level of $3,120/ounce at the lowest. In the early trading session of the European market, a strong forced short rebound began, with a daily increase of nearly $120. The daily level closed with a long lower shadow positive line, indicating strong buying support below, and the correction formed at the top of the $3,435/ounce stage may be coming to an end. At present, it is necessary to focus on whether the price can continue to stabilize the 5-day moving average (currently running near $3,220/ounce). If the closing today confirms that it has stabilized at this technical level, it can be regarded as a signal of the end of the downward trend. The market may restart the medium-term upward structure, and the market is expected to challenge the integer level of $3,500/ounce or even higher targets in the future.
From the gold 15-minute K-line chart, the K-line relies on the 5-day moving average to rise continuously, and the gold market is relatively strong, but the MACD red column shrinks, and the short-term may be corrected. In terms of operation, it is possible to go long if the 10-day moving average of 3,220 is maintained. In summary, it is recommended to buy gold in the short-term correction today, and short gold in the rebound. Pay attention to the resistance of 3260-3280 on the top and the support of 3200-3190 on the bottom.
Operation strategy:
1. It is recommended to buy gold in the correction area of 3200-3195, with a stop loss at 3187 and a target of 3220-3240
2. It is recommended to short gold in the rebound area of 3225-3230, with a stop loss at 3238 and a target of 3215-3200
3202 Buy and see reboundGold, the price fell to 3120 on Thursday and then rebounded, and boosted by the market's risk aversion sentiment, it rose to 3252 overnight, and the trend continuity is poor; the daily chart recorded a real big sun, and it will maintain a wide range of fluctuations in the short term, waiting for the results of the Russian-Ukrainian negotiations;
First fell back, now reported 3207; short-term decline and rebound showed a signal of stopping the decline, and a rebound and consolidation are expected in the evening; short-term support 3202, strong support 3192-3186; short-term resistance 3214-3218, strong resistance 3224-3230, break to see 3252;
In terms of operation, it is recommended to try to buy in the short term;
Strategy 1: Buy near 3202, protect 3192, target 3242;

XAU/USD 19 May 2024 Intraday AnalysisH4 Analysis:
-> Swing: Bullish.
-> Internal: Bullish.
Analysis and bias remains the same as analysis dated 23 April 2025
Price has now printed a bearish CHoCH according to my analysis yesterday.
Price is now trading within an established internal range.
Intraday Expectation:
Price to trade down to either discount of internal 50% EQ, or H4 demand zone before targeting weak internal high priced at 3,500.200.
Note:
The Federal Reserve’s sustained dovish stance, coupled with ongoing geopolitical uncertainties, is likely to prolong heightened volatility in the gold market. Given this elevated risk environment, traders should exercise caution and recalibrate risk management strategies to navigate potential price fluctuations effectively.
Additionally, gold pricing remains sensitive to broader macroeconomic developments, including policy decisions under President Trump. Shifts in geopolitical strategy and economic directives could further amplify uncertainty, contributing to market repricing dynamics.
H4 Chart:
M15 Analysis:
-> Swing: Bullish.
-> Internal: Bearish.
Analysis and bias remains the same as yesterday's analysis dated 15 May 2025.
In my analysis from 12 May 2025, I noted that price had yet to target the weak internal high, including on the H4 timeframe. This aligns with the ongoing corrective bearish pullback across higher timeframes, so a bearish internal Break of Structure (iBOS) was a likely outcome.
As anticipated, price targeted strong internal low, confirming a bearish iBOS.
While a bullish Change of Character (CHoCH) has printed, I am exercising discretion and not marking it as such, given the shallow nature of the pullback.
Additionally, another bullish CHoCH has printed, with price now trading within a defined internal range. I will continue monitoring this closely, particularly in relation to the depth of pullback.
Intraday Expectation:
Price to continue bullish, react at either premium of internal 50% EQ or M15 demand level before targeting weak internal low priced at 3,120.765
Note:
Gold remains highly volatile amid the Federal Reserve's continued dovish stance and persistent geopolitical uncertainties. Traders should implement robust risk management strategies and remain vigilant, as price swings may become more pronounced in this elevated volatility environment.
Additionally, President Trump’s recent tariff announcements are expected to further amplify market turbulence, potentially triggering sharp price fluctuations and whipsaws.
M15 Chart:
