XAUUSD DAILY SNIPER PLAN โ€“ APRIL 9, 2025

655
๐Ÿ“ Feed: OANDA | Style: SMC + PA + Macro | Bias: Bearish corrective โ†’ bullish potential

๐ŸŒ MACRO & FUNDAMENTAL CONTEXT
๐Ÿฆ Post-NFP volatility fading, but CPI data is around the corner (watch Thursday).

โš”๏ธ Tensions remain: Iran-Israel on edge, U.S. tariffs discourse ramping up again.

๐Ÿ“‰ DXY showing weakness; risk-on tone brewing quietly.

๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ Goldโ€™s structure still bearish short-term after rejection from 3135, but sitting on a higher timeframe discount.

๐Ÿ“Œ Summary: Market is hunting liquidity โ€” bulls want discount, bears want premium. Letโ€™s follow smart money.

๐Ÿงญ STRUCTURAL RECAP (D1 โ†’ M15)
๐Ÿ”ป D1/H4 Trend: Bearish correction after sweep of 3135; internal structure printing LHs and LLs.

๐Ÿ“ˆ H1: Clean reaction from 2965, struggling to reclaim 3022 flip.

๐Ÿ”‚ M15: Price hovering in FVG zone after failing to break 3005.

๐Ÿ”ป SELL ZONE #1 โ€“ โ€œFlip Rejectionโ€
๐Ÿ“ 3015โ€“3022
๐Ÿง  Why: Flipped support โ†’ resistance + H1 OB + FVG fill
๐Ÿ“‰ RSI near overbought + EMA21 rejection
๐ŸŽฏ TP1: 2971 | TP2: 2959 | TP3: 2928
๐Ÿ›‘ SL: 3030
๐Ÿ“Œ NY session sniper if price retraces up with weakness

๐Ÿ”ป SELL ZONE #2 โ€“ โ€œBreaker Retestโ€
๐Ÿ“ 3045โ€“3055
๐Ÿง  Why: M15โ€“H1 OB + imbalance fill from previous BOS
๐Ÿ“‰ Liquidity grab probable during London
๐ŸŽฏ TP1: 3015 | TP2: 2971 | TP3: 2943
๐Ÿ›‘ SL: 3065
๐Ÿ“Œ Look for CHoCH on 5M or weak engulfing M15

๐Ÿ”ป SELL ZONE #3 โ€“ โ€œPremium Liquidityโ€
๐Ÿ“ 3094โ€“3109
๐Ÿง  Why: D1/H4 OB + unmitigated FVG + resting equal highs
๐Ÿ“‰ Textbook supply raid + swing short
๐ŸŽฏ TP1: 3055 | TP2: 3015 | TP3: 2965
๐Ÿ›‘ SL: 3122
๐Ÿ“Œ Only if CPI or USD weakens too fast and gold overextends

๐ŸŸข BUY ZONE #1 โ€“ โ€œDiscount Tapโ€
๐Ÿ“ 2965โ€“2950
๐Ÿง  Why: H1 demand + FVG + trendline bounce
๐Ÿ“ˆ RSI recovery + bullish CHoCH M15
๐ŸŽฏ TP1: 2990 | TP2: 3022 | TP3: 3044
๐Ÿ›‘ SL: 2948
๐Ÿ“Œ Classic LTF confirmation needed, ideal during Asia-London transition

๐ŸŸข BUY ZONE #2 โ€“ โ€œLast OB Before Breakโ€
๐Ÿ“ 2922โ€“2904
๐Ÿง  Why: Unmitigated Daily OB + final imbalance
๐Ÿ“ˆ Psychological trap zone if swept
๐ŸŽฏ TP1: 2943 | TP2: 2982 | TP3: 3022
๐Ÿ›‘ SL: 2890
๐Ÿ“Œ Reversal setup if price flushes heavy overnight

๐ŸŸข BUY ZONE #3 โ€“ โ€œExtreme Discount Playโ€
๐Ÿ“ 2885โ€“2894
๐Ÿง  Why: Breaker + extreme OB + fib 0.786
๐Ÿ“ˆ Liquidity grab scenario with high RR
๐ŸŽฏ TP1: 2950 | TP2: 3000 | TP3: 3050
๐Ÿ›‘ SL: 2870
๐Ÿ“Œ Watch for fast reversal candle + LTF CHoCH

โš” SCALPING ZONE โ€“ (For early Asia Play)
๐Ÿ“ 2988โ€“2995
๐ŸŽฏ Target: 2965
๐Ÿ›‘ SL: 3000
๐Ÿ“Œ M15 micro OB. If rejected fast, quick drop likely.

๐ŸŽฏ BIAS & SESSION GAMEPLAN
๐Ÿ“Œ Bearish bias below 3022

๐Ÿ“Œ NY session โ†’ ideal for short from premium zones

๐Ÿ“Œ London โ†’ volatility trap around 3010โ€“3022

๐Ÿ“Œ Asia โ†’ potential grab under 2965 before reversal

๐Ÿ“Ž FINAL NOTES
All entries require confirmation (CHoCH / engulfing) โ€” donโ€™t front-run price.

Donโ€™t fight the structure โ€” trade with it, not against it.

This isnโ€™t wizardry โ€” just logic, patience, and risk control.

๐ŸŽฏ Structure first. Emotions later.
Gold gave a clean bounce from 2965, but the battlefield isnโ€™t done yet.
Sniper setups mapped for both NY rejection and deeper retracements.
No guessing, no FOMO. Just structure, SMC, and pure execution.

๐Ÿ“Œ XAUUSD Daily Sniper Plan (Update โ€“ April 9, 2025)
๐Ÿ“ Bias: Bearish correction โ†’ Bullish potential
๐Ÿ“ Style: SMC + PA + Macro
๐Ÿ“ Source: OANDA Feed
๐Ÿ“ Context: Post-NFP volatility, CPI incoming, Fed cautious

๐Ÿง  MARKET RECAP โ€“ What Didnโ€™t Go as Planned?
The original plan was based on a bearish corrective structure, expecting price to revisit key demand zones and fill unmitigated OBs before any meaningful rally.

โŒ However, Gold invalidated the expected correction, skipping several clean entry zones (2965โ€“2940) and rallying prematurely toward premium zones like 3015โ€“3022 and even beyond.

OBs and FVGs in discount were left unmitigated

Price moved fast after NFP โ†’ likely driven by front-running CPI and soft DXY

Structure still bearish on higher TFs, but momentum is mixed

๐ŸŒ MACROECONOMIC OUTLOOK
NFP came in soft โ†’ pressured USD, supported risk-on

DXY continues showing weakness โ†’ supports Gold short-term

Fed Rate Outlook: No hike expected, but still hawkish tones

CPI (Thursday): Key catalyst; a surprise may reverse or accelerate momentum

FOMC sentiment: Data-dependent, but leaning neutral โ†’ dovish bias builds

๐Ÿ”„ Updated Scenarios โ€“ Whatโ€™s Next?
๐ŸŸข BUY SCENARIO 1 โ€“ โ€œReclaim Retestโ€
Entry: 3,066 โ€“ 3,068.50

Why: M5 OB + FVG (discount zone)

SL: 3,061.50

TP1: 3,089 | TP2: 3,113.50 | TP3: 3,127

Trigger: M1/M5 CHoCH, bullish engulfing

๐ŸŸข BUY SCENARIO 2 โ€“ โ€œMacro Retestโ€
Entry: 3,045 โ€“ 3,041.50

Why: M15 OB + H1 EQ zone + final LTF demand

SL: 3,035.50

TP1: 3,068 | TP2: 3,089 | TP3: 3,113

Trigger: M5 bullish reversal or liquidity sweep

๐Ÿ”ป SELL SCENARIO 1 โ€“ โ€œFlip Rejectionโ€
Entry: 3,121 โ€“ 3,127

Why: H1/H4 Supply + resting liquidity

SL: 3,130.50

TP1: 3,100 | TP2: 3,089 | TP3: 3,066

Trigger: LTF BOS or CHoCH + rejection wick

๐Ÿ”ป SELL SCENARIO 2 โ€“ โ€œCPI Spike Trapโ€
Entry: 3,133 โ€“ 3,139 (only if CPI spike hits overextension)

Why: D1 unmitigated OB + Premium fib extension

SL: 3,142

TP1: 3,113 | TP2: 3,089 | TP3: 3,050

Trigger: Post-news spike โ†’ strong bearish reversal on M5

๐Ÿงญ BIAS SUMMARY
๐Ÿ”น Bullish bias short-term while above 3,066

๐Ÿ”น Bearish reversals valid only at extreme premium (3,121+), or if CPI surprise drives volatility

๐Ÿ“Š CPI + DXY movement will define next 24h structure

๐Ÿ’ฌ Final Message (for Minds / TV caption)
Gold blew through the correction zones like they never existed.
Unmitigated OBs were left behind, and Smart Money chose speed over structure.
CPI is next. Donโ€™t guess โ€” just follow price + logic.

๐Ÿ“ Key Levels โ€“ XAUUSD (April 9, 2025)

Context: Major area for possible re-entry if price retraces.

3,066 โ€“ 3,068.50

Reasoning: M5 OB + FVG zone (ideal for sniper entry).

Context: Strong potential for price to react if pulled back into this zone.

2,950

Reasoning: Previous low, major macro support.

Context: A key support level that could serve as a strong base for potential reversal if price revisits this zone.

Context: If price drops further, this is a critical zone for potential bounce.

2,950 โ€“ 2,940

Reasoning: Major support in deeper retracements.

Context: Stronger level to watch for potential long entries in case of deeper pullback.

Resistance (Sell Zones)
3,121 โ€“ 3,127

Reasoning: Premium Liquidity area, final trap zone.

Context: Likely to face selling pressure as price nears this level; potential short entries.

3,139

Reasoning: Unmitigated D1 OB, only valid on CPI spike.

Context: If CPI data surprises, this is a key level for short opportunities.

Reasoning: Previous major resistance.

Context: A critical resistance level where price could face a rejection; ideal for short setups if confirmed.

3,110 โ€“ 3,115

Reasoning: Minor resistance zone.

3,080 โ€“ 3,085

Reasoning: Short-term resistance levels.

Context: Another possible rejection zone for price before making a move toward higher resistance.

๐Ÿง  Summary:
Support Levels are concentrated around 3,045โ€“3,041.50 (final discount entry), with more significant support at 2,950 in case of a deeper pullback.

Resistance Levels remain strong in the 3,121โ€“3,127 range and extend to 3,150, with possible minor resistance at 3,110โ€“3,115.
