DOW ON ROUTE TO Recovery?As bids recapture the huge washout on Friday due to missiles in the sky. The market was due to ignore news and hope that it was over. Now we wait for Powell and Retail sales
2025-06-16 - priceactiontds - daily update - dax Good Evening and I hope you are well.
comment: Market is much weaker than sp500 and nq, which is always unusual. We are staying below 23724, which is good for the bears but we are in a weak bull channel and making higher highs and higher lows since the Friday sell spike. Both sides make money and market is currently in balance around 23560ish. Clear invalidation prices for both sides and until then it’s buy low, sell high and scalp.
current market cycle: broad bull channel
key levels: 23300 - 24000
bull case: Bulls want to accelerate upwards, close the Globex gap to 23800 and retest 24000. End of story. They are currently a bit favored since we are in a bull channel but only slightly. Market has to stay above 23500 if they want to continue higher. If broader bullishness on markets continues, dax won’t stay below 23800 tomorrow.
Invalidation is below 23500.
bear case: Given that US markets pumped again, dax lags big time. Bears need to keep the gap to 23800 open and print something below 23500 again. If they continue sideways, their chances of another leg down to 23000 become better. My weekly outlook was that we correct sideways for a couple of days before we get another leg down, So far I think this is unfolding.
Invalidation is above 23800.
short term: Neutral around 23650. Bullish really only above 23800 or closer to 23500. If we stay above 23560 tomorrow, I expect another try at 23700 and above 23742 bears will give up for at least 23800.
medium-long term from 2025-06-15: Bull trend has most likely concluded. Long term shorts are fine. Stop has to be at least 24508. I see it 70% or more that we will see 22000 before end of August.
trade of the day: Long around 23500 on EU open since Globex breakout from 23400 was bullish enough to expect a second leg up or at least a re-test of the high 23620 which would have been good for 100 points but was actually good for 220 if you held. The short around 23700 was tough. bears should signs of wanting a trading range with the structure after EU open and the sell-off from 23724 was unexpected in it’s strength since US markets pumped that hard.
XAUUSD - Overtrading and Revenge Trading - Trading PsychologyFrom Chaos to Control: Mastering the Art of Balanced Trading on Gold
Trading gold is exhilarating. It’s fast, volatile, emotional — and addictive.
But what most traders don’t realize is this: it’s not the market killing your account.
It’s you, pressing buy and sell like it’s a video game.
Over-trading is the silent account killer. It doesn’t scream. It whispers:
“Just one more entry.”
“Maybe this one will finally run.”
“Let me scalp this quick pullback…”
Before you know it, you’ve taken 12 trades by noon and your brain’s fried.
🧠1. Why Over-Trading Happens: The Dopamine Delusion
Over-trading isn’t just a strategy flaw. It’s chemical. Your brain rewards anticipation of profit — not just actual wins.
So every setup, every near-miss, every “maybe I missed the move” spikes your dopamine.
That’s why you keep clicking. Not because you saw a valid setup.
Because your brain craves the rush of imagining one.
This is why traders enter in zones they never marked, skip confirmation, and rush into impulsive entries.
The market didn’t give a signal. Your nervous system did.
📉2. The Real Damage: Not Just Losing Trades — Losing Discipline
Over-trading ruins more than your account. It ruins your edge.
• You stop following your plan
• You chase liquidity like a gambler
• You get shaken out of clean zones
• You increase risk, just to “make it back faster”
And worst of all? It feels productive.
But profits don’t come from activity. They come from precision.
If you don’t reflect about your actions, you repeat the bad ones.
💸3. The Financial Fallout: Over-Trading Blows Up Accounts
Over-trading nukes your capital.
• One extra trade becomes five
• SL gets wider or invisible because your entry was rushed
• Lot size gets heavier to “speed up” recovery
• Now you’re emotional, and revenge mode kicks in...
You’re not compounding anymore.
You’re compounding mistakes.
This is how smart traders blow up challenge accounts.
This is how funded accounts get revoked.
This is how small accounts die before they grow.
Over-trading is a trap with a $0 exit.
✅4. Tactical Fixes: Trade Smart, Live Smarter
✔️ Set a daily trade cap.
Limit yourself to 2–3 trades. If you keep entering, it’s not analysis — it’s compulsion.
✔️ Split your daily risk.
Risking 0.3% total? That doesn’t mean 0.3% per trade. Break it down, or you’ll break your account.
✔️ Set alerts — not alarms in your brain.
Stop watching every candle like it’s a soap opera.
Set TradingView alerts at your key zones and walk away.
The market doesn’t move faster just because you're glued to the screen.
✔️ Take real breaks — not just chart scrolling.
Go outside. Call someone or send time with family and friends. Eat good food.
Most traders come home from work and go right back into charts like it’s their second shift.
That’s not discipline. That’s burnout.
✔️ Build a life that doesn't revolve around entries.
The more you lose, the more you trade. The more you trade, the more you spiral.
It’s just like alcohol, drugs, gambling. Dopamine up. Reality down.
And the worst part? It looks like hard work from the outside — but it feels like slow death inside.
🧨5. From Over-Trading to Revenge Mode
If over-trading is the first crack in your foundation, revenge trading is the wrecking ball.
And it never starts from logic. It starts from pain.
You had a clean setup.
You got stopped out — maybe twice.
Now you're frustrated, humiliated… embarrassed.
You’re no longer reacting to price.
You’re reacting to loss.
Revenge trading doesn’t feel chaotic in the moment.
It feels righteous.
You convince yourself, “I just need one win to get it all back.”
😵💫6. The Emotional Spiral Traders Don’t Talk About
Over-trading and revenge trading are addictive.
You’re showing up to work. You’re posting charts. You’re pretending it’s fine.
But deep down?
You're wrecked. Emotionally, financially, and mentally.
This is the side of trading no one glamorizes.
The isolation. The loneliness. The pressure. The self-blame.
This is how people burn out — not from one bad week.
But from trying to trade their way out of pain.
⚠️ Final Word
Over-trading is not a badge of hustle.
It’s the first step toward emotional dependence on the market.
And that’s the most expensive habit you’ll ever form.
If you don’t catch it early, you’ll keep blaming the market, the spread, the broker…
when the real damage was done by your own reaction.
The market doesn’t owe you anything.
So be kind to yourself and build discipline, you will win in the long run.

Continue the uptrend, gold price returns to 3444⭐️GOLDEN INFORMATION:
Gold prices (XAU/USD) slipped for the second consecutive session on Tuesday, retreating from an early uptick during the Asian session that briefly pushed prices above the $3,400 mark. A slight rebound in the US Dollar (USD) continues to weigh on the precious metal, acting as a key drag. However, the downside appears limited amid escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and growing market expectations that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will initiate further rate cuts in 2025.
Meanwhile, the ongoing aerial conflict between Israel and Iran has entered its fifth day, heightening fears of a wider regional escalation. This persistent geopolitical uncertainty is keeping demand for safe-haven assets like gold supported. Investors are also exercising caution ahead of the Federal Open Market Committee’s (FOMC) two-day policy meeting, the outcome of which may shape the next directional move for non-yielding bullion.

Gold-----Sell near 3405, target 3390-3360Gold market analysis:
Yesterday's daily line closed with a big negative line, which was basically a day to kill the buying. Today's idea is to sell in the short term. The daily and weekly trends have not yet turned to selling. Although the daily line closed with a big negative line yesterday, its shape and indicators have not completely turned to selling. There is still motivation to buy in the later stage. In addition, Iran and Israel are still fighting. It is still difficult to see a deep decline in the short term. We estimate that today's Asian session will rebound slightly and then fall. If today's daily line continues to fall again, it may enter a new short-term selling mode. We are just a follower. We follow the short-term. If the short-term trend is bearish, we will rebound and sell. The daily line closes the negative Asian session and waits for the opportunity to sell.
In the Asian session, we pay attention to the suppression of the 3410 position. It is the suppression position of the shape, the suppression position of the 1-hour moving average, the central axis position of yesterday's big drop, and the suppression position of the daily line. If the Asian session stands on 3410, it may bring a new technical rise in buying. After all, the shape of the daily line is still buying. Secondly, if it breaks 3382, it can continue to sell it with a small rebound. 3405 is also a suppression, and it is also considered to sell when it is close.
Pressure 3405 and 3410, support 3282, the strength and weakness dividing line 3400.
Fundamental analysis:
Yesterday, Iran and Israel started bombing each other again, and the situation began to escalate.
Operation suggestion
Gold-----Sell near 3405, target 3390-3360
Gold - The final resistance breakout!Gold - TVC:GOLD - prepares a final rally:
(click chart above to see the in depth analysis👆🏻)
Over the past 12 months, Gold rallied more than +70%. However the past three months clearly rejected a major horizontal resistance. But price action on the smaller timeframe remains incredibly bullish. Therefore an all time high breakout will most likely follow.
Levels to watch: $3.500
Keep your long term vision!

Weekly Market Outlook: FOMC, Trade Deals and GeopoliticsIt is a holiday-shortened week, with the majority of markets halting early on Thursday, June 19, 2025, in observance of Juneteenth. See here for holiday trading schedule
Key Themes to Monitor This Week
Geopolitical Risks
Any outside intervention in the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict will likely be seen as a risk-off event by market participants. Despite Friday’s sell-off, markets shrugged off during the Sunday open and overnight sessions.
There are potential risks to trade routes and energy infrastructure, although disruptions seem unlikely at the moment. Amena Bakr at Kpler noted that, so far, there are no signs of disruptions in oil loadings from Iran. Without a supply outage, there is no pressing need for additional barrels to be brought onto the market.
Trade War and Trade Deals
There have been recent developments with the U.S. reaching key trade deal milestones with several countries. The baseline scenario remains optimistic, with expectations for an extension in negotiations and potential reciprocal tariffs for countries failing to reach agreements.
FED Week
This is a key week for U.S. monetary policy, with the FOMC decision, Summary of Economic Projections (SEP), and Chair Powell’s press conference scheduled.
Traders will be closely watching how the Fed’s inflation and growth expectations have evolved, as reflected in the SEP. All eyes will be on the dot plot to note how interest rate expectations have evolved since last quarter. Of note: Will President Trump’s continued calls for rate cuts influence Chair Powell’s tone or guidance?
Expectations for the Week Ahead
NQ futures have continued one-time framing higher, consistently creating higher lows since the week of April 21, 2025. A strong support zone exists below, anchored at the yearly Volume Point of Control (VPOC) and the Anchored VWAP from May 11, 2025, when markets gapped higher.
Key Levels to Watch
• yVAH: 22,690.50
• R2: 22,510
• R1 / Previous Week High: 22,322.50
• May 11 AVWAP: 21,672.25
• yVPOC: 21,660
Scenario 1: Market Grinds Higher but Stays Cautious
Despite several looming risk factors, the market could continue to grind higher. In this scenario, we anticipate a test above the prior week's high, followed by a potential pullback into last week’s range.
Example Trade Idea 1
• Entry: 22,000
• Stop: 21,930
• Target: 22,322
• Risk: 70 pts
• Reward: 322 pts
• Risk-Reward Ratio: 4.6R
Scenario 2: Pullback to Support, Range-Bound Consolidation
If the market pulls back, we expect the yearly VPOC and AVWAP from May 11 to act as key support levels. In this case, price action may remain range-bound within the previous week’s range, forming an inside week.
Example Trade Idea 2
• Entry: 21,672
• Stop: 21,600
• Target: 22,000
• Risk: 72 pts
• Reward: 328 pts
• Risk-Reward Ratio: 4.6R

THE KOG REPORT - UpdateEnd of day update from us here at KOG:
Price moved well today sticking to the bias level and completing the first two TP levels we had shared. The path illustrated yesterday also worked well giving the move into the support level, then the bounce upside into resistance before then resuming the move.
With FOMC tomorrow we can expect any sharp movement to happen in the late session and Asia, otherwise the pre-event price action has begun, we have a range in play with resistance above at the 3395 level and support below 3355-60 which has been highlighted. The bias will stand for now but we're going to take a back seat.
Price: 3382
KOG’s Bias of the day:
Bearish below 3401 with targets below 3365, 3358 and below that 3350
Bullish on break of 3401 with target above 3410 and above that 3425
RED BOXES:
Break above 3395 for 3406, 3410, 3416 and 3419 in extension of the move
Break below 3378 for 3368✅ and 3355 in extension of the move
As always, trade safe.

Top 5 Most Effective Forex Trading StrategiesTop 5 Most Effective Forex Trading Strategies Used by Professional Traders
Forex trading requires not just knowledge, but discipline and a clear strategy. So what are the most effective forex trading strategies that professional traders consistently use to achieve sustainable profits?
Let’s explore the 5 most trusted strategies that have stood the test of time – helping you level up your skills and reduce risk in this trillion-dollar market.
1. Breakout Strategy – Catching the Wave When the Market Explodes
A breakout occurs when price moves beyond a key support or resistance level after a period of consolidation. This usually signals the start of a new trend.
Best for: Traders who love strong momentum.
Pro tip: Confirm breakout with volume or candlestick patterns (e.g., engulfing).
Caution: Avoid entering right after the breakout – wait for a retest.
2. Trend Following Strategy – Trade with the Market, Not Against It
“Trend is your friend” – one of the most famous sayings in trading. This strategy helps traders ride the main trend, buying in uptrends and selling in downtrends.
Recommended tools: MA 20, MA 50, RSI, MACD.
Insider tip: Combine with pullback entries (enter when price retraces to dynamic support/resistance).
3. Price Action Strategy – Reading the Market Without Indicators
Price Action focuses on interpreting pure price behavior, without relying on indicators. Many pro traders prefer this approach to understand market psychology in real time.
Advantages: Clean, flexible, sharpens decision-making.
Popular candlestick patterns: Pin Bar, Inside Bar, Fakey, Engulfing.
4. News Trading Strategy – For Quick Thinkers and Fast Hands
When major news events like CPI, NFP, FOMC, or rate decisions hit the market, volatility surges. This creates both high-profit opportunities and high risks.
Common tactic: Straddle – place Buy Stop & Sell Stop before news release.
Risk warning: Watch out for slippage and widened spreads.
5. Fibonacci & Confluence Strategy – High-Probability Entries
This strategy combines tools like Fibonacci retracement, trendlines, support/resistance zones, and moving averages to find high-probability entry points.
Strength: Optimizes Risk: Reward ratio.
Tip: Focus on Fib levels 0.382 – 0.618 (commonly used retracement zones).
Conclusion: The Best Strategy is the One That Matches Your Style
There’s no perfect strategy – but understanding and applying the one that best fits your trading style will help you avoid emotional decisions and build long-term consistency.
Remember: Risk management – Emotional control – Systematic discipline = Long-term trading survival.
Gold Trade Plan – Wait for the Trap, Then Catch the Move Price broke the ascending trendline and is now heading into a key demand zone around 3387–3390. My plan is to wait for the manipulation wick into the green zone, ideally touching the trendline confluence below, then catch the bounce for a clean long setup toward 3460+. If that fails, I’m ready to flip short after the liquidity grab.
Two scenarios on the table:
1- Rejection from the demand zone → bullish continuation.
2- Fakeout bounce → trap longs → reversal drop.
Stay patient, let price come to you.
The Fed’s decision may guide the direction of gold
💡Message Strategy
Gold prices fell more than 1% as traders locked in profits after hitting an 8-week high, with attention turning to the Fed's policy decision and diplomatic signals from Iran. The move puts gold on track to form a bearish closing price reversal pattern, suggesting further consolidation if no new safe-haven demand emerges.
Safe-haven demand stagnates as Israel-Iran tensions ease
Geopolitical risks from the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict have been one of the key drivers of gold's recent gains. However, as reports emerged that Iran was willing to restart nuclear talks through an Arab intermediary, market reaction became muted.
These developments led to a more than 3% drop in crude oil prices and eased inflation concerns. Despite the continued tensions in the Middle East, the change still limited further gains for gold. U.S. Treasury yields were almost flat on the day, reflecting a decline in the market's urgent demand for traditional safe-haven assets.
A weaker dollar failed to support gold's gains
The U.S. dollar index (DXY) fell to 97.685, just above last week's multi-year low. Bearish sentiment persists, and new short positions may curb any rebound.
Gold's failure to rise despite a weaker dollar indicates overall hesitation in the market. Analysts pointed out that the lack of safe-haven inflows into the dollar and U.S. Treasuries highlights that traders are more focused on upcoming central bank guidance than geopolitical factors.
Fed outlook will dominate short-term price action
Traders are now awaiting the Fed’s decision on Wednesday, with expectations that interest rates will remain unchanged, but forward guidance will be key.
Gold could face new pressure if Fed Chairman Powell turns hawkish or suggests that interest rates will remain high for a long time. Any signs of policy normalization could boost the dollar and weaken gold’s appeal. However, a dovish tone or concerns about the persistence of inflation could strengthen support for gold near technical key levels.
Gold price forecast: If the $3310 range support is effective, the bullish trend remains
📊Technical aspects
From a technical perspective, gold is testing a key support area. A drop to around $3,380 could trigger new buying; if this level is lost, it will further test the $3,350 support level.
On the upside, resistance is close to $3,450, and if bullish momentum resumes, the all-time high of $3,500.20 is still possible.
For now, the forecast maintains a cautiously bullish tone, provided that the $3,310 support level remains solid and the Fed avoids turning hawkish.

Gold price crosses $3,400 due to geopolitical uncertaintyGold price crosses $3,400 due to geopolitical uncertainty
On Friday, gold decisively broke through the $3,400 resistance zone, confirming a bullish wave. This upward movement was fueled by geopolitical tensions, as Israel launched an attack on Iran, followed by Iran’s retaliation targeting Tel Aviv. With the situation still unfolding, the potential for further escalation remains uncertain.
Technical Analysis: Gold continues to show strength, and uncertainty surrounding the Middle East conflict may keep its price above $3,400 for the foreseeable future. This level serves as a pivotal zone, despite overbought conditions.
Looking ahead, gold could climb further to $3,450, $3,470, and potentially retest the top of the structure near $3,490. After that, the next move will depend on how the geopolitical landscape evolves.

Will gold continue to rise after a pullback?As for gold: the trend of daily, weekly and monthly cycles has remained unchanged, and the bulls remain unchanged; and the weekly line has started to rise continuously, and there is a high probability that it will gradually break upward; the daily line temporarily maintains 3245-3293 as the two low points of support at the bottom, and 3382-3452 as the two top high points of resistance to form an upward channel. The upper track is currently suppressed. Although Iran and Iran are still fighting fiercely over the weekend, the market has digested a lot, because today's Asian and European sessions did not continue the strong attack, but there was a wave of continuous declines; but this does not mean that it will fall back too much, and risk aversion will still be triggered at any time. Besides, leaving aside the news, the technical form is also bullish, and the highs and lows are gradually rising. The secondary high point was also broken, and there is a high probability of testing 3500 this week;
For today, due to the weakness of the European session and the rebound before and after the US session, pay attention to the 618 resistance 3436 and other pressures to go bearish first, and then continue to choose bullish when the two supports of 3404-3390 below are touched and stabilized; if the price cannot give the support position after 22:00 to the early morning, it is not ruled out that it will stabilize in advance;
Specific operation plan: It is recommended to go long and bullish at 3410, add more positions at 3408, target 3430-3440, stop loss 3400; short near 3443 above, add more positions at 3448, target 3430-3420, stop loss 3455.
DeGRAM | GOLD kept the rising channel📊 Technical Analysis
● Price rejected the channel roof near 3 435 again, carving a small evening-star and slipping back under the May trend-median 3 370 — a repeat of April/May fades.
● Bearish RSI divergence plus a break of the micro up-sloper (last three sessions) tips for a rotation toward the lower rail/3 295 support; loss of that opens the April pivot at 3 225.

XAU/USD Builds Bullish Momentum for Potential Upside MoveXAU/USD has formed a classic bullish flag pattern on the daily chart, indicating a continuation of the strong upward trend. After a sharp impulsive rally, the price consolidated in a downward-sloping flag, which has now been broken to the upside. This breakout signals renewed bullish momentum, supported by rising moving averages and price action holding above key support levels. The breakout candle shows strong volume and conviction, increasing the probability of further gains. As the market maintains its bullish structure, traders may look for continuation towards higher resistance levels in the coming sessions.
Entry Point: 3410
First Target: 3451
Second Target: 3530
GOLD SELL 3390Several key factors are contributing to the current bearish sentiment in XAUUSD (Gold/USD):
1. Easing Geopolitical Tensions
Gold is widely considered a safe-haven asset, attracting demand during periods of heightened geopolitical risk. Recently, concerns about escalating conflicts in the Middle East have subsided, leading to a reduction in safe-haven demand and a shift of capital toward riskier assets.
Reports of potential diplomatic engagement between major world powers (e.g., US and Russia) and a lack of escalation in ongoing conflicts have further reduced the urgency to hold gold for safety.
2. Hawkish Federal Reserve and Interest Rate Expectations
The Federal Reserve's minutes revealed policymakers are hesitant to cut interest rates and are even considering further hikes due to persistent inflation. Higher interest rates increase the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets like gold, making it less attractive to investors.
This expectation of prolonged higher rates has strengthened the US dollar and pressured gold prices downward.
3. Technical Breakdown and Bearish Chart Patterns
Gold recently failed to break above key resistance at $3,440 and is now correcting lower toward support at $3,400. A break below this level could trigger further downside, with technical targets at $3,350 and $3,340.
Technical indicators, such as the MACD and RSI, are signaling strong bearish momentum. The price has broken below important moving averages (EMA 200, Ichimoku cloud), and a "death cross" (EMA 50 below EMA 200) has formed, all pointing to further bearish pressure.
Chart patterns, including a bearish double top and a break below the regression channel, reinforce the negative outlook.
4. Reduced Demand from Key Buyers
If global economic uncertainty fades and central banks slow their gold purchases, demand can weaken, further weighing on prices.
Easing US-China trade tensions and a potentially weakening Chinese economy could also reduce gold demand from one of its largest consumers
Lingrid | GOLD Weekly Analysis: Geopolitical Safe-Haven RallyOANDA:XAUUSD demonstrated exceptional strength this week as geopolitical tensions from Israeli-Iranian conflicts drove massive safe-haven demand. The metal successfully broke above the critical 3,360 resistance level, confirming the completion of an inverse head and shoulders pattern that has been forming since April.
The 4H chart reveals the market appears to be forming an ascending triangle pattern within a broader upward trendline, suggesting continued bullish momentum. The recent breakout above the monthly high resistance zone indicates strong institutional buying pressure.
The daily chart presents an even more compelling picture with the completion of an inverse head and shoulders pattern, a classic bullish reversal formation. This technical setup, combined with the massive flag pattern completion, projects potential targets toward $3,650-$3,700 levels. The right shoulder formation confirms the pattern's validity, while sustained buying above previous resistance zones validates the upward trajectory.
We should monitor the $3,430-$3,450 resistance area closely, as a decisive break could accelerate momentum toward the projected targets. The combination of geopolitical risk premiums and technically sound chart patterns creates a favorable environment for continued gold appreciation in the mid-term.

XAUUSD LONG XAUUSD has successfully broken its last high (Break of Structure), signaling a potential shift in momentum. Seeing that the pullback is almost coming to an end, it’s the best time to look for long trade.
✅ Target: Next key resistance or liquidity area above.
✅ Stop Loss: Just below the last low to minimize risk.
