Candlestick Analysis

Tensions in the Middle East. (Levels to watch, things to do). Iran and Israel situation is tense. Lot of investors have lot of questions in mind. I am trying to provide my opinion for the same in the video. I am trying to give my Technical and Political commentary on the situation in this educational video. The political commentary is based on my 15+ years of experience in the Middle East and is my personal opinion. I hope this will answer a lot of questions for you. I have also tried to give Techincal support and resistance levels for Nifty. In the 10 minute I have tried to cover as many points as I can. Along with the list of things to do as an investor. I hope this will help many of you. As it was expected there was a deep fall in the market due to Israel Vs Iran tensions. US is also a direct or indirect party to the situation and if there is further escalation other global powers will mostly get involved. Due to the this situation market opened gap down at 24473. What we saw post that is Indian market recovered smartly from that situation to close at 24718. That is a huge 245 point recovery to end the day. This is why colour of the candles throughout the day (As this is an hourly chart are green despite we ended in red. (That is a classic Technical lesson for understanding candle sticks analytics). The closing is above the father line support of 24674 which is a good sign as this will be our support (Strong support for Monday.) I have spent more than 15 years in the Middle East and happen to know a little bit out of my personal experience, having interacted with a lot of locals. Thus I am trying to answer a few questions that might be coming in the minds of may investors including myself. Q&A The Question now are we out of danger? Answer: Not yet. Question 2: Why we are not out of danger? Ans: The geo-political situation is very tense. The scale of Israeli attack was massive and there are clear and present chances of Iran counter attack which has already begun. Israel will respond again and Trump has already said that the next attacks by Israel will be even more fierce. No Iran is no palestine and there would be many countries that might support Iran. Specially China has already hinted support. Russia another ally is busy with Ukraine but you never know. Question 3: How it goes for the other Middle Eastern countries? Ans: There are lot of countries with US and Western bases on them. If Iran attacks them there are chances of other Western countries getting into the act too. In addition to some Middle Eastern countries getting into the act for the purpose of self defence. Thus over the weekend the things can get either very tense. Question 4: What happens to India and Indian markets? Ans: Today Indian markets have shown a lot of resilience. Global meltdown can affect us to for sure. But as we are neutral (As of now as it seems). The damage to our market hopefully will be minimal. Moreover recovery will be swift once the situation becomes less tense. Question 5: What should investors do? Ans: Long term investors can hold on to their long term positions in blue chip stocks. Keep stop losses and trailing stop losses in place for the mid-cap and small cap stocks. If some stop losses are hit or trailing stop losses are hit, you can always buy again as market is not going anywhere. The dip that we might potentially see can be an opportunity for long term investors for bottom fishing again and recalibrating their portfolios. (You can use the current situation to realign your portfolio for buying the trending stocks which have giving good results this quarter or have been giving good results since last few quarters.) Get rid of the stocks that have been dragging your portfolio down. Market has provided another opportunity for a fresh start. Things you can do: 1) Gold and Silver are always a great option when it comes to uncertain times. 2) Do not give a knee jerk reaction in selling off your winners. 3) Watch the global updates and keep stop losses and trailing stop losses accordingly. 4) Re-calibrate your portfolio 5) If you are sitting on cash use the dip for investing in stocks with long term perspective. The support for Nifty Remain at: 24674 (Father line support), 24640 (Mid-channel support), 24492 (Trend line support), 24382, 24208 and finally 24077 (Channel Bottom Support). a closing below 24077 will enable and empower bears to Pull Nifty further down. Resistances for Nifty remain at: 24752, 24818, 24906 (Mother line Resistance), 25043, 25138 and finally 25223 (Channel top Resistnace). Above 25223 Bulls will potentially take over the market.

GOLD (XAUUSD): Waiting For Another Breakout Following the latest news, I think you would agree with me that Gold will most likely rise more. Your technical confirmation can be a bullish breakout of the underlined blue resistance and a daily candle close above 3435. It will be an important trigger that will push the prices way up to a current ATH. ❤️Please, support my work with like, thank you!❤️ I am part of Trade Nation's Influencer program and receive a monthly fee for using their TradingView charts in my analysis.

XAU/USD 13 June 2025 Intraday AnalysisH4 Analysis: -> Swing: Bullish. -> Internal: Bullish. Analysis and bias remains the same as analysis dated 23 April 2025 Price has now printed a bearish CHoCH according to my analysis yesterday. Price is now trading within an established internal range. Intraday Expectation: Price to trade down to either discount of internal 50% EQ, or H4 demand zone before targeting weak internal high priced at 3,500.200. Note: The Federal Reserve’s sustained dovish stance, coupled with ongoing geopolitical uncertainties, is likely to prolong heightened volatility in the gold market. Given this elevated risk environment, traders should exercise caution and recalibrate risk management strategies to navigate potential price fluctuations effectively. Additionally, gold pricing remains sensitive to broader macroeconomic developments, including policy decisions under President Trump. Shifts in geopolitical strategy and economic directives could further amplify uncertainty, contributing to market repricing dynamics. H4 Chart: M15 Analysis: -> Swing: Bullish. -> Internal: Bullish. As per my analysis dated 22 May 2025 whereby I mentioned price can be seen to be reacting at discount of 50% EQ on H4 timeframe, therefore, it is a viable alternative that price could potentially print a bullish iBOS on M15 timeframe despite internal structure being bearish. Price has printed a bullish iBOS followed by a bearish CHoCH, which indicates, but does not confirm, bearish pullback phase initiation. I will however continue to monitor, with respect to depth of pullback. Intraday Expectation: Price to continue bearish, react at either M15 supply zone, or discount of 50% internal EQ before targeting weak internal high priced at 3,444.495. Note: Gold remains highly volatile amid the Federal Reserve's continued dovish stance, persistent and escalating geopolitical uncertainties. Traders should implement robust risk management strategies and remain vigilant, as price swings may become more pronounced in this elevated volatility environment. Additionally, President Trump’s recent tariff announcements are expected to further amplify market turbulence, potentially triggering sharp price fluctuations and whipsaws. M15 Chart:

As conflict escalates, gold is cautiously long📰 Impact of news: 1. The geopolitical situation between Israel and Iran deteriorates 📈 Market analysis: The worsening geopolitical situation caused a surge in gold prices. The intraday short-term support points of 3420, 3402, and 3380 will all become key support for testing bulls. If the European session is strong, 3420 cannot be lost. If it falls back and loses, it will move closer to the top and bottom conversion position of 3402. If you go long later, you must pay attention to the weakening of the upward momentum. If the European session continues to break the high of 3440, then the US session can be seen around 3468-3493. If the upward momentum in the European session weakens, we need to watch out for a short-selling counterattack and a sharp decline. The geopolitical situation is unstable. Bros must strictly control SL when trading independently. 🏅 Trading strategies: BUY 3420-3402-3380 TP 3390-3400-3420-3460-3490 If you agree with this view, or have a better idea, please leave a message in the comment area. I look forward to hearing different voices. OANDA:XAUUSD FX:XAUUSD FOREXCOM:XAUUSD FXOPEN:XAUUSD TVC:GOLD

Gold will inevitably fall after risingGold has risen sharply due to the violent geopolitical conflicts and the surge in risk aversion. It once reached around 3445, but in the process of falling back, it only touched 3408 and rebounded again, stabilizing above 3400. It is obvious that due to the changes in fundamentals, the sentiment of gold bulls is high; although the upward momentum of gold near 3440 has weakened, there is no clear signal of peaking yet! For short-term trading, it is relatively difficult to participate at present. To be honest, I naturally don’t want to chase gold at a high level; but there are no more signals to support me to short gold for the time being. However, with the rebound of gold, the current short-term support below is in the 3425-3415 area, followed by the psychological support of the 3400 integer mark; and the short-term resistance above is in the 3455-3465 area, followed by the area near 3480. Compared with the profit and loss ratio, I prefer shorting gold for short-term trading, because gold has performed relatively strongly in the London market. Logically, gold will have the inertia to rise in the New York market, so I think gold may rise and then fall in the New York market, so my current plan is to try shorting gold starting in the 3455-3465 area. Because the changes in gold's fundamentals are more extreme and complex, you must set up SL when participating in transactions.

Stick to shorting gold and aim for the target area.Gold has not broken through 3400 after accelerating its rise, and the upper suppression effect still exists; currently gold is fluctuating in a narrow range below 3390, showing signs of stagflation to a certain extent. Therefore, the accelerated rise of gold is not for the short-term impact of 3400, but for a deep retracement, eliminating more scattered funds in the market by sweeping up and down. So in the short term, I think it is difficult for gold to continue to break upward under the suppression of the resistance area near the short-term high of 3402, but to test the lower support area of ​​3375-3365 before breaking upward. So I have shorted gold as scheduled according to the short trading plan mentioned above, and aimed at the lower target area of ​​3375-3365. At present, our short position has made a certain profit, but I still look forward to profiting from gold hitting TP! Let us look forward to gold falling back to the target area as expected!

EUR/JPY: Evening star warning as 165 holds by a threadEUR/JPY is on the cusp of confirming an evening star pattern, setting up a potential short if the price closes around current levels or lower. 165.00 remains key support. It’s already been tested today before bouncing—price behaviour we’ve seen before. It often trades through but rarely closes below with conviction, putting focus on how it trades into and out of the weekend, especially given EUR/JPY’s tendency to deliver reliable signals. A break of Monday’s low at 164.60 would allow shorts to be initiated, with a stop above 165 for protection. Initial downside targets include the 50-day moving average, 163.00, or the 200-day moving average—depending on the risk-reward profile you're after. Expect bids around 164, so be ready to square the trade if momentum stalls. If price rallies into the Friday close, the bearish setup would be invalidated. Good luck! DS

Bull market continues? Beware of the possibility of a pullback📰 Impact of news: 1. The geopolitical situation between Israel and Iran deteriorates 📈 Market analysis: In the short term, gold is expected to rise further. Relatively speaking, there is still room for further increase. If it continues to rise today, it depends on the test of 3440 points, which is the opening position of the previous decline. In the short term, pay attention to the 3340-3350 resistance. If it can break through and stay above it, the 3468-3493 line we gave in the morning can still be used as a reference, and it is even expected to reach 3500. But at the same time, the RSI indicator in the hourly chart is approaching the overbought area, so we still need to be vigilant about the possibility of a pullback. 🏅 Trading strategies: SELL 3440-3450 TP 3430-3420 BUY 3415-3400 TP 3420-3440 If you agree with this view, or have a better idea, please leave a message in the comment area.

USDCAD Long – Wyckoff Spring PlaybookCause > Effect. Behavior > Breakouts. We just printed a classic Spring + Test setup. Here’s how the puzzle came together: 🔍 Accumulation Context: Market ranged quietly for hours – demand building below the surface. Spike down into previous demand zone with climax volume – the shakeout. Quick reclaim of the zone with bullish absorption signals the Spring. 📈 Execution Plan: Entry just above the spring low at 1.3617 Stop below spring at 1.3612 Targeting inefficiencies at 1.3645 and 1.3651 (prior supply pockets) 🎯 Why I Like This Setup: Structure: Matches Wyckoff Spring logic (Phase C → D transition) Volume: Shakeout came with high effort, followed by efficient reclaim Timing: Happens in a zone where other traders might still be stuck short > “In trading, the ones who recognize intent get in before confirmation.” This trade idea isn’t about being right — it’s about understanding behavior. I’m not reacting to candles. I’m tracking the motive behind them.

PLTR – Structure Holding… For Now (4H Outlook)Palantir is compressing near ATHs, but showing early signs of exhaustion on higher timeframes. On the 4H chart, structure is still bullish — but fragile. 🔍 Key Technical Structure • Series of Breaks of Structure (BoS) confirming the bullish trend • Price is currently sitting above the $125 4H demand zone, near previous highs • Invalidation for the bearish thesis sits at $140 🧭 Strategy Outlook If $125.50 fails: → Next demand: $113.00–$105.00 → Below that: strong support zone at $98.00–$89.00 If $140 breaks and holds: → Bearish divergence invalidated → Continuation toward new highs likely 📌 Summary Price is at an inflection point. Structure remains bullish, but momentum is weakening across higher timeframes and RSI divergence is still active. Watching $125.50 as the trigger: Below = potential sell-off Above = stay patient

Gold price fluctuates again, layout in the evening📰 Impact of news: 1. Initial jobless claims data favors bulls 📈 Market analysis: The high of 3392 in the US market fell back for the first time to test the 3377 area to stop the decline and then tried again but failed to break through the 3400 integer mark. It can be seen that this position is very suppressed. The top and bottom conversion of 3377 has become the watershed for bulls to defend in the future market. 3400 is the short-term key pressure and the closing line has a long upper shadow K. If 3377 is lost, the price will fluctuate again. In the short term, focus on the 3390-3400 resistance on the upside and the 3377-3365 support on the downside. 🏅 Trading strategies: SELL 3385-3395 TP 3370-3360 BUY 3365-3360 TP 3390-3400 If you agree with this view, or have a better idea, please leave a message in the comment area.
