Gold XAUUSD Intraday Move 21.05.2025Gold 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.

XAUUSD Weekly Analysis & Trade Signal — May 18, 2025Technical Overview: Price is currently trading around the $3,204 level, right below a key resistance zone of $3,245–$3,255, which aligns with the midline of the descending parallel channel. This zone has historically acted as a strong resistance. If price retests and rejects this level again, we can expect a significant bearish move. However, a clean breakout above $3,255 followed by a successful retest and hold would shift the bias to bullish, potentially targeting the upper boundary of the channel near $3,360. The weekly candle closed below $3,240 with strong bearish momentum (notable red volume), signaling a potential continuation of the downtrend next week. Trading Plan for Next Week: 🟥 Bearish Bias (Preferred Scenario) Entry: If price retests $3,245–$3,255 zone and shows strong rejection (e.g. bearish engulfing or wick rejections). Target 1: $3,200 Target 2: $3,145 Target 3: $3,100 Stop Loss: Above $3,270 🟩 Bullish Scenario (Breakout Confirmation) Entry: If price breaks and holds above $3,255, and confirms with a bullish retest. Target 1: $3,300 Target 2: $3,345 (channel top) Stop Loss: Below $3,230 Summary: Your preferred bias should remain bearish unless price clearly breaks and holds above the $3,255 resistance zone. Trade based on confirmation, not anticipation. Kindly show support, like and comment.

Gold Update: 2 optionsIndeed, the top metal surged well beyond $3,000, as I mentioned in my earlier post (see related post for details). The price reached a new all-time high of $3,510 before pulling back, as expected. So far, the retracement has been rejected at the trendline support around $3,123 (futures). From here, there are two possible scenarios: 1) Blue Labels The price may have already completed wave 4. If so, we could now see a large wave 5 move to the upside. This wave could reach the blue target box, which represents 61.8% to 100% of the distance from wave 1 to wave 3, added to the bottom of wave 4. This target zone lies between $3,700 and $4,100. Keep in mind that gold is a commodity, and commodities often have extended fifth waves — so the higher end of the blue box is still possible. 2) White Labels Typically, fourth waves retrace down to the valleys of previous lower-degree fourth waves. In this case, the market could form another leg down to complete a larger, more complex correction, potentially hitting $2,975 before wave 5 begins. If that happens, the target for wave 5 may be lower, but with a possible extended fifth wave, it could still reach the blue box area.

Will Middle East Tensions Ignite a Global Oil Crisis?The global oil market faces significant turbulence amidst reports of potential Israeli military action against Iran's nuclear facilities. This looming threat has triggered a notable surge in oil prices, reflecting deep market anxieties. The primary concern stems from the potential for severe disruption to Iran's oil output, a critical component of global supply. More critically, an escalation risks Iranian retaliation, including a possible blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, a vital maritime chokepoint through which a substantial portion of the world's oil transits. Such an event would precipitate an unprecedented supply shock, echoing historical price spikes seen during past Middle Eastern crises. Iran currently produces around 3.2 million barrels per day and holds strategic importance beyond its direct volume. Its oil exports, primarily to China, serve as an economic lifeline, making any disruption profoundly impactful. A full-scale conflict would unleash a cascade of economic consequences: extreme oil price surges would fuel global inflation, potentially pushing economies into recession. While some spare capacity exists, a prolonged disruption or a Hormuz blockade would render it insufficient. Oil-importing nations, particularly vulnerable developing economies, would face severe economic strain, while major oil exporters, including Saudi Arabia, the US, and Russia, would see substantial financial gains. Beyond economics, a conflict would fundamentally destabilize the geopolitical landscape of the Middle East, unraveling diplomatic efforts and exacerbating regional tensions. Geostrategically, the focus would intensify on safeguarding critical maritime routes, highlighting the inherent vulnerabilities of global energy supply chains. Macroeconomically, central banks would confront the difficult task of managing inflation without stifling growth, leading to a surge in safe-haven assets. The current climate underscores the profound fragility of global energy markets, where geopolitical developments in a volatile region can have immediate and far-reaching global repercussions.

Weak USD and renewed safe-haven demand support GOLD surgeOANDA:XAUUSD surged to a one-week high. A weak US dollar and safe-haven demand amid economic and geopolitical uncertainty boosted gold prices. Gold prices rose and held above $3,300 an ounce as traders grew increasingly concerned about the US tax reform vote and escalating tensions in the Middle East. In addition, Moody's downgrade of the US credit rating and the depreciation of the US dollar also boosted safe-haven demand for gold. CNN reported Tuesday, citing multiple sources, that the latest intelligence suggests Israel is preparing to launch airstrikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, even as negotiations between the Trump administration and Iran over the country's uranium enrichment program continue. Axios, a prominent U.S. news website, reported Wednesday local time that two Israeli sources with knowledge of the negotiations told Axios that Israel is preparing to strike Iran's nuclear facilities quickly if negotiations between the United States and Iran fall apart. Israeli intelligence has shifted in recent days from believing a nuclear deal was imminent to believing that talks could soon collapse, sources said. Gold, considered a safe investment amid economic and geopolitical uncertainty, hit a record high of $3,500.05 an ounce last month. US stocks plunged on Wednesday and US Treasury yields jumped as investors focused on congressional debate over President Trump’s proposed tax reform, raising concerns that the country’s massive debt will continue to rise. Technical Outlook Analysis OANDA:XAUUSD After gold broke the technical confluence of the 21-day moving average (EMA21) with the 0.382% Fibonacci retracement, it has qualified for further upside to the next target expected at $3,371, the price point of the 0.236% Fibonacci retracement. Looking ahead, in the short term, gold has qualified for a new bullish cycle with the nearest support at the raw price point of $3,300 followed by $3,292. A bullish breakout of $3,371 would open the door to a new target at the raw price point of $3,400 in the short term, followed by $3,435. As noted to readers throughout the publications since the beginning of the year, the trend of gold prices is fixed by the rising price channel, corrections can still take place negatively but the trend has not changed. "In fact, I have also encountered many failures when the market fluctuated too much recently, causing me to not believe in the rising price structure at times." Trading is not just about fundamentals or technicals, it depends more on trading psychology. With the current market, experienced traders will still often encounter psychological problems, such as me, who is writing this article to you. Finally, the short-term uptrend of gold prices in the main uptrend will be noted by the following notable levels. Support: 3,300 – 3,292 – 3,250 USD Resistance: 3,371 – 3,435 USD SELL XAUUSD PRICE 3367 - 3365⚡️ ↠↠ Stop Loss 3371 →Take Profit 1 3359 ↨ →Take Profit 2 3353 BUY XAUUSD PRICE 3265 - 3267⚡️ ↠↠ Stop Loss 3261 →Take Profit 1 3273 ↨ →Take Profit 2 3279

WTI Crude: Bears Target 60.549 USDHey traders and investors! 🔹 Crude Oil — 1D / 4H 📍 Context Daily (1D): clear short trend; price capped below 65.40 USD. 4-Hour (4H): sideways range — its boundaries are marked by black lines on the chart — with seller initiative in control. Higher-time-frame levels reinforce the bearish bias. 🔎 Analysis Sellers keep the upper hand on 4H. The daily shows no strong buyer bars, sustaining downward pressure. If price retests the IKC zone and prints bearish confirmation (high-volume seller bar or buyer absorption), the odds of breaking 60.549 USD increase. 🎯 Trade Idea Setup: hunt for short patterns inside the IKC range. Target: 60.549 USD (range low). Confirmation: pattern on M15–H1 + seller-side volume. 📌 Takeaway Bears remain in control. Wait for a trigger inside the IKC zone and lower-TF confirmation before joining the move toward 60.549 USD. This analysis is based on the Initiative Analysis concept (IA). Wishing you profitable trades!

Chart Analysis (45-Minute Timeframe):1. Breakout Confirmation: The chart shows a bullish breakout from a rising wedge or channel structure, marked with two red trend lines. Price has closed above the Ichimoku cloud, confirming bullish momentum. 2. Key Resistance Levels: First resistance: $3,324.89 (being tested currently). Major target/resistance zone: $3,368.18 (highlighted by the upper red line and arrow). This zone aligns with a previous strong supply area visible on the left of the chart. 3. Support Levels: Immediate support at the breakout zone around $3,310. Additional supports lie at: $3,308.23 $3,305.13 $3,266.45 (bottom of the recent move and key invalidation zone). 4. Volume Profile: Increased bullish volume is supporting the breakout. No significant bearish volume spikes yet, indicating momentum is still in favor of buyers. 5. Ichimoku Cloud Insight: Bullish signals: Price is above the cloud. Lagging span (Chikou) is above price. Cloud ahead is green, indicating potential continued bullish trend. 6. Expected Move: If price holds above $3,310, we could see a continuation toward the target zone at $3,368. However, failure to hold above $3,310–$3,305 could lead to a pullback toward the base of the channel or cloud support. Summary: Gold is in a bullish breakout phase. A sustained move above $3,324 and holding support at $3,310 increases the likelihood of a move toward the $3,368 resistance zone. Watch volume and lower trend support for any signs of a reversal or failed breakout.

How to arrange after gold falls into consolidation🗞News side: 1. US officials said Trump's statement was related to the Golden Dome Project, which may affect the flow of funds 2. The tension in the Middle East has intensified, and the risk aversion sentiment has increased, which is good for gold 3. Although the withdrawal of Indian and Pakistani troops has eased the regional situation, geopolitical risks still exist 4. Trump mentioned the tax bill, which affected economic expectations and affected gold investment sentiment to a certain extent. 📈Technical aspects: At present, gold is in consolidation, and the upward trend is slightly stagnant. From the hourly chart, there are signs of downward correction after the upward test of 3320. In the short term, the upper 3320 line has a certain suppression, so gold may test the support again and then rise after stabilizing. Then the first support below is the 3292 line, followed by the 3285 line. If it falls below, it may test the two key support points of 3273 and 3265. The current trend is not clear. In the future trading, we will wait patiently for the gold price to stabilize before entering the market. 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.

Gold - This is still clearly not over!Gold - TVC:GOLD - just needs a moment to breathe: (click chart above to see the in depth analysis👆🏻) It is just incredible how Gold has been rallying lately. Just over the past 1.5 years, Gold is up another +80% and is creating new all time highs every month. Since these strong rallies continue a lot longer than most people think, Gold still has significant upside potential. Levels to watch: $3.500, $4.000 Keep your long term vision! Philip (BasicTrading)

Analysis of the latest gold trend on May 21: Daily level triangle convergence The price forms a symmetrical triangle at 3180-3320, and is currently in the final consolidation (a direction must be determined within 3-5 trading days) MACD key signal: The fast and slow lines are glued below the zero axis. If a golden cross appears, it will confirm the daily level rebound Volume observation: The recent decline has shrunk significantly, which is in line with the characteristics of "main force accumulation" 4-hour cycle order flow analysis Institutional cost area: 3220-3230 (the largest trading volume area in the past 2 weeks) Key pressure levels: First pressure 3285 (20EMA+Fibonacci 38.2%) Core pressure 3308 (previous high neckline + channel upper rail) Breakthrough validity standard: 2 consecutive 4-hour K-lines close firmly at 3300, and the trading volume ≥ 120% of the daily average volume 1-hour chart short-term rhythm Asian market rules: There have been 5 times in the past 7 days 3250-3270 forms the intraday high and low points European market momentum: If it breaks through 3275, the success rate of long positions before the US market will reach 68% Scenario 1: Oscillating upward (probability 65%) Bull entry point: Conservative: Go long after stepping back to 3248-3253 (15-minute Bollinger lower track), stop loss 3238, target 3275→3290 Aggressive: After breaking through 3278, step back to 3268 to chase long positions, stop loss 3258, target 3300 Key verification: If 3280 is not broken before the US market, reduce the position by 50% to lock in profits Scenario 2: False breakthrough reversal (probability =25% probability) Short opportunities: Place short orders when the price reaches 3305-3310 for the first time (stop loss 3318), target 3280→3260 If the price shows "long upper shadow + MACD top divergence" near 3290, enter the market with a short order immediately Stop loss discipline: All short order stop losses must be set above 3320 Scenario 3: Black swan decline (probability 10%) Emergency plan: After falling below 3230, short at 3245, stop loss 3260, target 3200→3180 If it reaches 3180 (the lower track of the daily line), close the short position and reverse the layout of the mid-line long position

GOLD 1H CHART ROUTE MAP UPDATEHey everyone, Please see update on our 1h chart idea. After completing our Bullish targets yesterday, at 3236 and 3278; we stated that we would look for ema5 to lock above 3278 to open 3308. - We got the lock above 3278, confirming 3308, which was hit perfectly today. We now have a ema5 cross and lock above 3308, opening the range above. Any rejections in this zone and we may see a retest of lower Goldturns for the usual weighted level bounces, inline with our plans to buy dips. We will keep the above in mind when taking buys from dips. Our updated levels and weighted levels will allow us to track the movement down and then catch bounces up. We will continue to buy dips using our support levels taking 20 to 40 pips. As stated before each of our level structures give 20 to 40 pip bounces, which is enough for a nice entry and exit. If you back test the levels we shared every week for the past 24 months, you can see how effectively they were used to trade with or against short/mid term swings and trends. The swing range give bigger bounces then our weighted levels that's the difference between weighted levels and swing ranges. BULLISH TARGET 3236 - DONE EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 3236 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGETS 3278 - DONE EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 3278 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGET 3308 - DONE EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 3308 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGET 3343 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 3343 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGETS 3373 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 3373 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGETS 3418 BEARISH TARGETS 3184 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK BELOW 3184 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BEARISH TARGET 3146 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK BELOW 3146 WILL OPEN THE SWING RANGE 3103 3069 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK BELOW 3069 WILL OPEN THE SECONDARY SWING RANGE 3030 2981 As always, we will keep you all updated with regular updates throughout the week and how we manage the active ideas and setups.

XAUUSD: Channel Down top with Death Cross. Best sell enty.Gold marginally turned bullish on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 55.472, MACD = 17.780, ADX = 34.620) as the price has been rising since last Thursday. Technically however, it is on the most efficient sell entry as it is just under the LH top of the 1 month Channel Down. The big difference now is that it formed a 4H Death Cross and last time we had one inside a Channel Down was almost 1 year ago (June 3rd 2024) and set in motion one last bearish wave to the 1.382 Fibonacci extension. We are therefore short with TP = 3,050. ## If you like our free content follow our profile to get more daily ideas. ## ## Comments and likes are greatly appreciated. ##

XAUUSD | Liquidity Grab to BreakoutHello traders! We’re currently observing a clean breakout setup on Gold (XAUUSD). After a strong bullish structure with higher lows, price formed a rising wedge pattern, followed by a sharp fake-out and liquidity grab below trendline support. The market quickly reclaimed the zone and is now breaking above the wedge’s descending resistance line with strength. I’m anticipating a continuation to the upside, potentially toward the $3340–$3350 area, marked by the green target zone. This setup offers a solid risk-to-reward opportunity, especially as price respected the lower liquidity sweep and confirmed with a bullish engulfing on the retest. ⚠️ Still, this is a reactive play — if the price closes below the grey zone, I will exit and reassess. This is a short-to-medium term idea based on market structure, volume reaction, and breakout dynamics. Good Luck! DISCIPLINE Strive for patience, perseverance, determination, & rational action. Protect your capital. Use stop losses. Never move or remove your stop just because price moves against you. This is just my perspective — feel free to share your thoughts in the comments! If you find this analysis helpful, your support is appreciated! 🙌 Disclaimer: This is not financial advice. Trade at your own risk. Always plan your trade, and trade your plan.
