Gold XAUUSD Intraday Move 21.05.2025

171
Gold is currently trading within a well-respected ascending channel, approaching a significant resistance zone around 3315–3320, where previous supply caused a sharp sell-off. This resistance zone has been tested again and shows signs of rejection with consolidation and wicks to the upside.

If price fails to break above this resistance, we may see a corrective drop toward the 3285–3290 zone, which aligns with:

The channel midline
Previous minor structure support
A potential bullish order block/demand zone

This level present a high-probability buy opportunity within the bullish structure.

Preferred Scenario:
Wait for a retracement to 3285–3290 (buy zone)
If bullish price action forms (e.g., bullish engulfing, rejection wicks), enter long position

Trading Signal – Buy Setup
Buy Limit: 3287
Stop Loss: 3275 (below demand and channel)

TP1: 3315
TP2: 3335 (channel top)
Risk/Reward: ~1:2+

Alternative Bearish Scenario:
If price breaks below 3280 with momentum and closes below the ascending channel, avoid buying and reassess for a possible bearish trend shift.
Trade closed: target reached
snapshot
Although the gold retraced around 3290 yesterday, but didn't triggered limit order just missed by 10/15 pips, however, if you have taken retracement along with me, congratulations you are profitable then. And the gold has hit our targets viz. 3315 and 3335.
