๐Ÿ“Œ Trading Plan for April 28, 2025: Gold (XAU/USD) Strategy ๐Ÿง ๐Ÿ“ˆ
๐Ÿ“Š Technical Analysis
Following the sharp drop in previous sessions, gold is now consolidating around the 3260โ€“3270 support zone.

Price is moving within a tight triangle formation on the M15 timeframe, indicating compression ahead of a breakout.

The MA 13 โ€“ 34 โ€“ 200 still suggests a short-term bearish bias, but selling momentum has noticeably slowed down.

Expectation: gold may retest the 3299โ€“3313 resistance zone before a stronger directional move.
