[EL Gold] Potential Breakout (Long strategy)

26
In last week, we saw the price action shows relatively small fluctuations with frequent pullbacks, indicating a range-bound movement in the short term.
There are multiple instances of price testing resistance and support levels, suggesting a possible consolidation phase. Momentum appears to be neutral, with no clear trend dominance.

However, I would say the gold price will breakout this week. Below is our opportunity!

📌 Bullish Breakout Strategy (Upside)
🚀 Scenario: If price breaks above $2,930 with strong volume

🔸 Entry Rules:
Buy when price closes above $2,930 (Fibo 0.786) with a strong bullish candle

🎯 Targets for Bullish Breakout:
1️⃣ $2,944 - $2,948 (previous resistance zone)
2️⃣ $2,956 - $2,960 (Fibo 1 at $2,956)
3️⃣ $2,970+ (extension move if momentum is strong)

🛑 Stop Loss:
Below $2,924 (previous resistance-turned-support)
Tight SL: If scalping, $2,926 - $2,928


🔹 Extra Confirmation for Breakouts
✅ Breakout Retest Strategy:

If price breaks $2,930 (up) or $2,906 (down), wait for a retest of the breakout level before entering.
Example: If price breaks above $2,930, wait for a pullback to $2,928 - $2,930, then enter long.
✅ Momentum Confirmation:

RSI above 60 (bullish) or below 40 (bearish) for strong breakout
Volume Spike during breakout
✅ False Breakout Prevention:

Avoid low-volume breakouts → These often fail
If price reverses quickly after breakout, exit early
