XAUUSD: Bearish Continuation in Play Toward 3,250Gold closed last week with a strong bearish weekly candle, rejecting from the 3,440 supply zone and closing below the key Fair Value Gap at 3,360. This confirms downside pressure, especially in the context of a strengthening dollar. For this week, we may see a bullish opening early in the week toward 3,370, followed by a deeper bearish move targeting the major low and liquidity pool at 3,250. Bias: Bearish Key Zones: • Resistance / Retest: 3,370 • Target: 3,250 • Supply Rejection: 3,440 Momentum favors further downside unless bulls reclaim key levels.

XAUUSD H4 Outlook – “Fed Week: Only the Real Zones”Hello, gold traders! FOMC week is here, the dollar’s flexing, and gold is stuck under a fortress of supply. No fantasy, no overlaps, just your real, actionable H4 map—zones spaced, logic tight, and all fluff deleted. ⬜Bias: Neutral to bearish while price is capped under 3,355 and the EMA cluster. Only flip bullish if price closes and holds above 3,375 with strong confirmation after news. Current Price: 3,336.81 Summary for your audience: Neutral–bearish: All the EMAs (21/50/100/200) are overhead, and the primary supply and decision zones are blocking any upside. No reason to flip bullish unless gold breaks out and holds above both the decision zone and the full supply ceiling after major news. All bounces into supply are likely to get faded, unless the structure changes dramatically post-FOMC. 🟥 ULTRA SUPPLY ZONE: 3,390 – 3,405 127–161.8% Fib extension—liquidity grab and stop-hunt target for news-driven spikes Only short if you see a monster upper wick and hard rejection 🟥 PRIMARY SUPPLY: 3,365 – 3,375 All EMAs (21/50/100/200) are stacked overhead; unfilled FVG at 3,370–3,375 Short on a clear rally rejection or bearish engulfing candle—this is where most breakouts get trapped 🔶 DECISION ZONE: 3,340 – 3,355 EMA100/200 straddle this level; small FVG at 3,350–3,352 Market “decides” here—fade unless price closes decisively above 3,355 🔵 EQUILIBRIUM SHELF: 3,320 – 3,335 50% Fib at 3,327; filled FVG at 3,325–3,330; SMA50 just below Bounce/fake-break zone—wait for a clean H4 reversal, not a guess 🟢 FIRST DEMAND BASE: 3,290 – 3,310 H4 Order Block, hidden FVG (3,300–3,305), Fib 38.2% around 3,295 Longs only with strong pin-bar/engulf and quick EMA50 reclaim 🔵 DEEP PULLBACK BAY: 3,250 – 3,280 Weekly EMA21 and 61.8% Fib (~3,260), strong volume Only consider a long on a panic flush and a powerful reversal wick ⚡️ MACRO CONTEXT USD: On fire into ADP and FOMC; gold moves will be explosive, not logical Events: Tue: ADP Wed: FOMC + Powell Thu: Core PCE Fri: NFP, ISM Bias: Neutral-bearish under 3,355; only bullish if we close and hold above 3,375 EMAs: Clustered tightly overhead—bulls get no respect until this ceiling is crushed 🎯 TRADE LOGIC Shorts: 3,390–3,405 (big wicks and clear rejection only) 3,365–3,375 (news spike or failed breakout with bearish candle) Longs: 3,340–3,355 (only on a confirmed close above) 3,320–3,335 (strong reversal only—don’t front run) 3,290–3,310 (classic H4 pin-bar/engulf + EMA50 reclaim) 3,250–3,280 (deep panic flush and major reversal only) NO TRADE: In the gaps—let the gamblers get chewed up, not you. 💬 Which zone will you snipe?

Gold’s heating up – Riding the wave or waiting for the dip?Hey everyone! So, what’s your take on XAUUSD right now? Gold’s been on a tear lately – yesterday it kept pushing higher and is now chilling around $3,376. The move’s mostly driven by hopes that the Fed might ease up soon, especially with recent U.S. data showing signs of slowing down. From a chart perspective, it’s looking like we might be at the beginning of a fresh bullish wave. There’s a nice bullish confluence happening at the EMA 34 and 89, plus we’ve broken above previous resistance – both giving that upward momentum some real backing. If price pulls back before another push, I’m keeping my eyes on the Fibo 0.5–0.618 zone. That area also lines up with the EMAs and old resistance, so it could be a sweet spot for a buy setup if things line up right. Personally, I’m leaning bullish today.

XAUUSD – Weak Rebound, Bearish Bias RemainsYesterday was a quiet and choppy day for Gold. Although price managed to recover a small portion of last week’s 1400 pip drop, the rebound remains anemic — price barely reached the 23% Fibonacci retracement. To make things worse for the bulls, the recovery from around $3300 is starting to take the shape of a bearish flag, a continuation pattern that typically signals further downside ahead. 📌 Resistance Zones to Watch: - Initial resistance: $3345–3350 - Stronger resistance: $3370, a level already proven and well-defined As long as the price is under those levels, I remain firmly bearish. 📈 Trading Plan: I already have a short position open, and I'm still waiting to add more, preferably on a push into higher resistance, ideally above $3345. No need to force entries — I’d rather scale in on strength, not weakness. Once the correction is complete, I’m targeting: - $3280 as the first support - $3250 as a realistic downside objective Conclusion: The rebound lacks power. The structure favors the bears. Still watching for better entries to add short, with eyes on 3280 and 3250 as likely targets. Let’s stay patient and let the setup come to us. 🎯 Disclosure: I am part of TradeNation's Influencer program and receive a monthly fee for using their TradingView charts in my analyses and educational articles.

The rebound is weak, short orders intervene#XAUUSD After two consecutive trading days of volatility, gold finally began to fall under pressure near 3335. After breaking through the 3300 mark, the price of gold accelerated its decline, reaching a low of around 3268, and yesterday's daily line closed with a large negative line. 📊 Today's rebound is more likely to be based on the buffering performance of the impact of news. The ATR data also shows that the bullish momentum is slowly weakening in the short term. 🐻After digesting the impact of yesterday's news through rebound during the day, it may fall again in the future.📉 📎The primary focus today is 3305 above, which was also the high point of yesterday's pullback correction. If the gold price rebounds to 3305-3320 and encounters resistance and pressure,📉 you can consider shorting and look towards 3290-3270.🎯 If the short-term gold rebound momentum is strong and breaks through the 3305-3320 resistance area, it will be necessary to stop loss in time. Gold may be expected to touch yesterday's high resistance of 3330-3335, which is the second point to consider shorting during the day.💡 🚀 SELL 3305-3320 🚀 TP 3290-3270

GOLD TRADING PLAN – Triangle Squeeze, All Eyes on NFP【XAU/USD】GOLD TRADING PLAN – Triangle Squeeze, All Eyes on NFP Gold continues to trade within a large symmetrical triangle, tightening toward the end of its range. However, current candle structure shows clear bullish momentum, indicating the potential for a strong upside breakout. 🔍 Today’s Key Focus: Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) Market expectations are pointing to weaker-than-expected US economic data, which could trigger strong FOMO-buying for gold if confirmed. A poor NFP report would likely weaken the USD, supporting bullish continuation. 🔑 Strategy and Key Technical Levels: Watch for a confirmed breakout above the descending trendline to trigger Wave 3 of the bullish structure. CP ZONE + OBS BUY ZONE triggered yesterday already yielded 160+ pips profit. Strategy: Prefer buy-the-dip entries. SELL setups only valid on strong resistance rejection. Avoid counter-trend trades near breakout zones. 🟩 BUY ZONE: Entry: 3276 – 3274 Stop Loss: 3270 Take Profits: 3280, 3284, 3290, 3294, 3300, 3305, 3310, 3320, 3330, 3340, 3350 🟥 SELL ZONE: Entry: 3339 – 3341 Stop Loss: 3345 Take Profits: 3335, 3330, 3325, 3320, 3315, 3310, 3305

Risk Capacity: The Real Reason Traders Blow Accounts | Ep. 4In this pre-recorded video, I unpack one of the most overlooked reasons why traders blow their accounts over and over again, and it’s not about your system, strategy, or signal. It’s about risk capacity, the internal threshold your nervous system can handle before fear, greed, or shutdown kicks in. This is part of my ongoing series on YouTube “Rebuilding the Trader Within”, where I reflect on the emotional and psychological dimensions of trading that no indicator can fix. If you've ever found yourself repeating the same mistakes, feeling stuck at the same equity level, or losing composure in high-stakes trades... this might be the pattern underneath it all. I'm still learning too, and I’d love to hear your thoughts.

GOLD may be subject to manipulation ahead of the NFPGOLD has reversed its upward trend and a local downward channel is forming. There is pressure from sellers on the market while the dollar is rising... NFP data will be released today. The market may form a short squeeze before declining within the local downward trend. There is a possibility that NFP data will be strong (needed by the presidential administration) to confirm the readiness to lower interest rates. Scenario: ahead lies a strong resistance zone at 3311.5 - 3324.85. The formation of a false breakout could intensify bearish pressure, leading to a decline in prices to 3255

XAUUSD prices current scenario This chart presents a range-bound price action within an ascending channel and offers two potential breakout trade opportunities depending on price direction. 🔍 Chart Summary: > Current Price: Around 3326-3328 > Pattern: Ascending channel > Bias: Neutral (waiting for breakout) 📊 Channel Analysis: > Price is moving inside an ascending channel, marked by two parallel trendlines (support and resistance). > This suggests gradual bullish pressure, but the price is still within a consolidation/ranging structure. > Buyers and sellers are currently indecisive, waiting for a clear breakout direction. 🧠 Trade Scenarios: ✅ Buy Setup: : Condition: Breakout above the upper channel resistance : Confirmation: Break and close above channel, ideally with strong bullish candles and volume : Target: 3370 (marked as TP1 for buy trade) > Reasoning: Breakout confirms buyer dominance and momentum continuation ❌ Sell Setup: : Condition: Breakdown below the lower channel support : Confirmation: Break and close below the channel with a bearish engulfing or volume spike : Target: 3300 (marked as TP for sell trade) > Reasoning: Break below structure indicates loss of buyer control and return of bearish trend ⚠️ Key Notes: : The ascending channel suggests short-term bullish strength, but no strong trend has been confirmed yet. : Avoid entering within the channel—this is a no-trade zone due to market indecision. : Wait for confirmation of breakout/breakdown before entering trades. ✅ Conclusion: > The price is currently in a rising consolidation channel. > Breakout above = buy opportunity toward 3370 > Breakdown below = sell opportunity toward 3300 This is a classic wait-for-breakout setup—ideal for breakout traders looking for defined risk and reward zones.

Gold Struggles at Resistance – Indicates Lower Lows AheadGold has been in a clear downtrend after facing a strong rejection around the 3,438 level (main resistance zone). Price is currently moving within a descending channel, confirming the formation of lower highs and lower lows – a classic bearish market structure. Currently, Gold is trading near 3,306, facing resistance at 3,339 (marked as a possible lower high). If price fails to break above this level and sustain, there is a strong probability of continuation towards 3,249 and even 3,216. Key Technical Highlights - Immediate Resistance: 3,339 – 3,353 - Support Levels: 3,301 (short-term), 3,249, and 3,216 A rejection near 3,339 can lead to another leg down targeting 3,249 and 3,216. However, a strong breakout above 3,339–3,353 could temporarily shift momentum towards 3,394. Note Please risk management in trading is a Key so use your money accordingly. If you like the idea then please like and boost. Thank you and Good Luck!

The idea of shorting on rallies below 3315 remains unchanged.Gold remains generally weak, with multiple rebounds showing signs of fatigue. The upward moving average continues to suppress prices, indicating that the bearish trend remains intact, and the short-term market outlook remains bearish. Trading strategies remain bearish today, with a key focus on the 3300-3315 area, a key short-term resistance zone. If the market rebounds before the US market opens and approaches this area, or if a clear topping signal appears near this range, consider entering a short position. Today will see the release of the non-farm payroll data, which may influence the market's trajectory. We recommend prioritizing short-term trading before the release, and reconsidering the market's direction based on market feedback after the release. Structurally, gold continues to exhibit a volatile downward trend, with lower highs and lower lows. Today's low is expected to be lower than yesterday's. Short-term short positions are focused on 3285-3280, with a break below this level potentially allowing for further declines. Please carefully time your entry, strictly implement risk management, and avoid emotional trading.

Impact of the Non-Farm Payrolls? Latest Analysis.Information Summary: Most traders are turning their attention to the crucial US labor market report, which is being closely watched as the market actively searches for new clues regarding the timing of the next interest rate cut this year. The July non-farm payrolls report will be released at 8:30 AM US time. US non-farm payrolls increased by 110,000 in July, seasonally adjusted, lower than the 147,000 increase in June. The US unemployment rate is expected to rise from 4.1% to 4.2% in July. If the non-farm payrolls figure falls below 100,000 and the unemployment rate rises, it could signal a weakening job market, undermining the Fed's rekindled hawkish outlook and dampening the dollar's upward momentum. In this scenario, gold prices could re-cross the 3,400 mark. However, if the non-farm payrolls unexpectedly exceed 150,000, it could support the dollar's continued rise and hurt gold. Strong US employment data could rule out two rate cuts from the Fed this year. Market Analysis: Quaid believes that the current moving average crossover is trending downward, and downward momentum is still in play. The RSI remains at 42.7, hovering below the midline, indicating that gold's downward trend remains intact. The 20-day moving average fell below the 50-day moving average on Wednesday, confirming the bearish momentum. Therefore, if gold closes below the key support level of the 100-day moving average at $3,270 on a weekly basis, a new downtrend could begin, potentially leading to a drop towards the June 30 low of $3,248. Quaid believes that the current bull-bear watershed needs to focus on around 3315, which is the previous intensive trading area and is also the first resistance position for short-term upward movement. On the last trading day of Super Data Week, Quaid hopes that everyone has gained something and has a happy weekend; I wish you all good luck.
