GOLD: Next Move Is Up! Long!
My dear friends,
Today we will analyse GOLD together☺️
The recent price action suggests a shift in mid-term momentum. A break above the current local range around 3,340.22 will confirm the new direction upwards with the target being the next key level of 3,370.89 and a reconvened placement of a stop-loss beyond the range.
❤️Sending you lots of Love and Hugs❤️
Commodities
Gold shows a bearish gapThe daily chart of gold shows a clear gap after the price peaked around $3,495/ounce. This is a warning sign of a reversal when strong selling pressure causes the opening price to be significantly lower than the closing price of the previous session. This gap often reflects distribution pressure from big players, especially in the context of gold having just experienced a hot rally.
In addition, the long red candle appearing right after the gap shows decisive selling pressure, pushing the price down to the $3,310/ounce area. Currently, although gold has slightly recovered to around $3,340, the short-term trend is leaning towards a correction as fundamental news continues to put downward pressure on prices.
President Trump's conciliatory statement on US-China trade and expectations of tariff reduction have significantly improved risk sentiment in the market. Strong money flows into stocks, causing gold to lose its safe-haven role. At the same time, the wave of profit-taking after the peak is also the main reason why gold "evaporated" tens of USD in just 24 hours.
Technically, if gold does not soon fill the GAP around the $3,390–$3,420 area, the correction trend will likely continue to expand to the EMA34 support area around the $3,200–$3,250 mark. A more positive scenario will only be triggered if gold regains the GAP and closes above $3,430.
In the current context, investors need to be cautious, prioritizing the strategy of waiting to sell when recovering to the resistance area, especially the area around the unfilled GAP.
SILVER: Target Is Down! Short!
My dear friends,
Today we will analyse SILVER together☺️
The in-trend continuation seems likely as the current long-term trend appears to be strong, and price is holding below a key level of 33.442 So a bearish continuation seems plausible, targeting the next low. We should enter on confirmation, and place a stop-loss beyond the recent swing level.

XAUUSD (Gold) - ICT AnalysisI'm currently looking for higher levels on Gold,
after we reversed from a Daily IRL zone and printed a clear 1H structure shift.

Gold – Watching Key Resistance for Intraday Sell Plays📌 Gold Surges $80 off Support – Watching Key Resistance for Intraday Sell Plays 📉📈
Gold (XAU/USD) bounced sharply today — surging over 80 points from the support zone near $3,260, swept during the late U.S. session. This strong rebound came as buyers stepped in aggressively after a 250+ point crash earlier in the week.
Now, the market is pulling back from the 0.382 Fibonacci retracement zone, showing early signs of sell-side reaction. If this momentum continues, Asian and London sessions could push price lower to fill liquidity in the untested FVG region near 3,288.
🔁 Intraday Structure & Key Zones
After sweeping both sides of the range (80 up / 40 down), gold is now consolidating between 3,328 – 3,320. With intraday volatility ranging from 80–100 points, today’s focus will be on high-probability reaction zones.
🔴 SELL Bias for Today
Primary Resistance: 3,376 – 3,378
→ This zone is expected to act as the first defense for sellers.
If broken, watch the final resistance at 3,410 — a key structural level.
→ A clean breakout above 3,410 may invalidate the sell setup and shift the bias back to BUY.
🔍 News to Watch
⚠️ Unemployment Claims (U.S.) will be released during the New York session.
→ Given current market sensitivity, expect volatility to spike around this release.

Gold’s rebound is not a reversal, the decline is returningThe recent trend of the gold market has been "crazy". Gold jumped higher and opened more in the Asian market today. In the morning, gold tested as high as 3367 and then fell back, indicating that the momentum of bulls has been limited. From the hourly chart, the MA30 moving average is around 3330, and the European market is likely to be volatile during the day. In the morning, Lianyang's rise was blocked by the 3367 first-line pressure and fell back. In the European market, we can continue to be bullish by focusing on the 3330 first-line support. The target is 3350-3355. If the position is broken, continue to hold. The 4H mid-rail 3380 line has been lost and has become a key counter-pressure point. The upper pressure is focused on 3380-3386. If it cannot regain this position, the downward correction trend will be maintained. If it reaches it, you can try to sell short.
If you agree with this point of view, or you have a better idea, please leave a message in the comment area. I look forward to hearing different voices.

Gold - Why a drop to 3250 could be the perfect buy!Gold has been in a strong and sustained uptrend, showing impressive momentum with minimal pullbacks along the way. At the moment, Gold is forming a rising wedge pattern, which could indicate potential short-term downside price action. If we see a retracement from current levels, I’ll be watching closely for a long opportunity.
A break below this rising wedge would suggest possible short-term downside movement. This would actually be healthy for the overall trend, as small pullbacks are a natural and necessary part of a strong uptrend. It helps shake out weak hands, reset indicators, and build stronger support for the next leg higher.
Why a drop to around 3250?
If the wedge breaks, there’s an imbalance zone (4h FVG) sitting just below the current price level that has yet to be filled. These imbalance zones are created when price moves sharply in one direction, leaving gaps in the market structure. These areas often act as magnets, drawing price back to fill them before the trend resumes.
This particular imbalance zone lines up perfectly with the golden pocket Fibonacci retracement, adding further significance to the level as a strong area of support for the bulls. When technical confluences align like this, they tend to become high-probability reaction zones.
It’s also worth noting that this was the last major high that was broken before Gold made its most recent move upward. That makes this level even more likely to be defended by buyers. Bulls who missed the initial breakout will be watching this level closely for entries.
What are we watching for?
If Gold fails to hold the structure of the rising wedge, it opens the door for a sharper pullback towards the 3250 zone. This level aligns with multiple key confluences: the support zone, the 4h FVG, and the golden pocket. All of these factors together make it a prime level to look for bullish setups.
Conclusion
Gold remains in a strong uptrend but is starting to show early signs of a potential short-term pullback if it loses the rising wedge structure. Should that happen, the primary target for downside would be the 3250 level. This is where I’ll be looking for long opportunities, as it aligns with major support, the 4h imbalance zone, and the golden pocket retracement.
While this pullback would be short-term in nature, the broader trend remains bullish. As long as key levels hold and market structure stays intact, the bigger picture favors further upside. A healthy retracement here could set the stage for a more sustainable and explosive next leg up.
Thanks for your support.

GOLD → Reversal or correction? What to do now?FX:XAUUSD reaching the psychological high of $3500 has entered the correction phase, which was also influenced by a slight easing of the tariff conflict between the U.S. and China....
After falling without reaching the zone of interest 3288, the gold price is strengthening at the beginning of the European session, expecting PMI data from the U.S.. Earlier, the metal reached a record of $3,500, but rolled back amid hopes for an easing of the trade war with China and words of the US Treasury Secretary about a possible “détente”.
The dollar recovered as part of the correction, but investors doubt Trump's predictability, gold at this time begins a correction. In the center of attention is the PMI index from S&P Global: its results may affect expectations for Fed Funds rates and give a new direction to the market.
Resistance levels: 3340, 3360, 3366
Support levels: 3317, 3288
Technically gold is in correction and confirms the bearish structure. But any unexpected statement by Trump may attract aggressive buying.
Nevertheless, we should now consider a possible decline from 3340 - 3360 - 3366. Buying could be considered on a retest of support or a close above 3370.
Regards R. Linda!
SILVER (XAGUSD): Pullback is Ahead!
There is a high chance that Silver will pull back from
the underlined blue daily resistance.
As a confirmation, the price formed a double top pattern
on that on an hourly chart and violated its neckline.

Gold short-term analysisSpot gold rebounded slightly in early Asian trading on Thursday and is currently trading around $3,329, supported by bargain hunting. Gold prices continued to fall from record highs on Wednesday, falling nearly 3%, hitting a low of $3,260.08 and closing at $3,288.18. Investors were relieved by hopes of easing trade tensions and President Trump's abandonment of his threat to fire the Fed chairman. The dollar rebounded against major currencies on Wednesday, with the dollar index rising 0.94% on Wednesday, recording two consecutive gains on the daily line, reaching a high of 99.94, a nearly one-week high, and closing at 99.90. Earlier, US President Trump said he did not intend to fire the Fed chairman and hinted at progress on tariffs. The dollar and US stocks rebounded, suppressing gold prices. After gold prices were blocked and fell back at the 3,500 mark, more short-term long profit-taking also dragged down gold prices.
From the daily level, gold rose strongly during Tuesday's session, hit the key price of 3,500, then fell back and finally closed down. This trend of rising and falling showed that the selling pressure from above was heavy, and the buying power encountered strong resistance from selling at high levels. Then, gold continued to fall on Wednesday and closed down again, forming a technical pattern of two consecutive declines. This continuous decline further confirmed that short-term bears are dominant.
Overall, today's short-term operation strategy for gold is mainly rebound short selling. The upper short-term focus is on the 3365-3370 line of resistance, and the lower short-term focus is on the 3305-3300 line of support
Interval buy: 3305-3303, LS:3293, TP: 3325-3335
Interval sell: 3360-3362, LS:3372, TP: 3340-3345
Key points:
First support: 3305, second support: 3300, third support: 3290
First resistance: 3360, second resistance: 3370, third resistance: 3375
$PLTR Trade: Buy $90.86 , Target $101.35Beep Beep. Hope everyone is taking care of their trading accounts during this volatile phase in the markets.

Target - Gap on Weekly at $101.35

SPY/QQQ Plan Your Trade Update For 4-23 : Rally-111 PatternToday's pattern really showed up pre-market.
Where was the rally today? It happened before the US markets opened for business.
The SPY/QQQ had already moved up into my upper resistance area on strong buying overnight.
I knew I had to run my father around most of the day, so I booked my profits this morning and tried to catch one little SPY rally (that didn't work out).
So, I started taking some positions for next week's potential downtrend, and I thought, "How much risk am I taking on these trades if the markets continue to move upward?"
I realized I would be taking about $1000 to $1400 in total risk, but my expiration date is near May 16. So my target for any profit really needs to be before May 10th or so.
If the markets do what I expect, I'll be sitting back, watching my profits grow as the markets trend downward into my May 2 Major Bottom (I hope).
I created this video to highlight the now partially confirmed inverted EPP pattern that setup the Ultimate High in early trading today.
Now that we've completed the inverted EPP pattern, we should be looking for the ES/SPY/QQQ to move downward, shift into a sideways/upward price flag. Then, break down into the new Consolidation phase.
Essentially, if my EPP patterns play out well, I timed my move away from longs/calls and into shorts/puts almost perfectly. Now, I just need to sit back and wait for the markets to make a move.
This is what trading is all about. You can't kick the markets to do what you want them to do. You have to learn to take what the markets give you and fall in line with market trends.
When you do that well, profits start to fall into your lap (if you are patient).
Follow along as I break down these market trends and learn how to develop your own skills.

Gold Drops $200 in Hours – Panic or Opportunity? 📌 Gold Plunges $200 – Volatility Surges Amid Fed Signals and Market Panic 🔥📉
📰 What Just Happened?
Yesterday, gold (XAU/USD) experienced one of its sharpest intraday drops in recent months, tumbling from the all-time high around $3,500 to as low as $3,318, losing nearly $200 in just a few hours.
This marked a significant correction following an extended bullish trend.
🔍 Key Drivers Behind the Crash
Fed-related commentary spurred aggressive profit-taking across the market.
The USD staged a technical rebound, exerting downward pressure on gold.
Rapid sentiment shifts triggered panic selling and liquidation flows.
🧭 What’s Next for Gold?
The $3,300–3,320 zone is now a crucial support — if this level holds, a technical recovery could unfold.
However, a break below $3,300 may expose gold to deeper downside targets near $3,250.
⚠️ Strategic Considerations
This is a high-volatility environment — flexibility and strict risk management are key.
Current sentiment is fragile. Unpredictable political headlines and mixed Fed signals are adding to the uncertainty.
In the latest development, Trump clarified he has no intention to fire the Fed Chair and hinted that China’s tariffs could be eased slightly — but not eliminated. These mixed messages continue to create sharp swings in price.
📊 Trade Plan
🔻 SELL ZONE #1:
Entry: 3,378 – 3,380
Stop Loss: 3,384
Take Profits: 3,374 → 3,370 → 3,366 → 3,362 → 3,358 → 3,350
🔻 SELL ZONE #2:
Entry: 3,408 – 3,410
Stop Loss: 3,414
Take Profits: 3,404 → 3,400 → 3,396 → 3,392 → 3,386 → 3,380
🟢 BUY ZONE:
Entry: 3,292 – 3,290
Stop Loss: 3,286
Take Profits: 3,296 → 3,300 → 3,304 → 3,308 → 3,312 → 3,316 → 3,320
The priority remains to sell into rallies near resistance while the downtrend unfolds. All trades should be protected with tight stop-losses, given the current unpredictability.
🧠 Key Takeaways
This is not a market for guessing — wait for price confirmation at key zones.
Focus on reaction zones, not forecasts.
Stay light, stay nimble, and manage risk carefully — news-driven volatility is at its peak.

Best plan: pre-mark levels now, react later.
🗣️ Final Note
This market update reflects structure-only precision, no emotional bias. If bulls want back in, 3280–3290 is the launchpad. If not, sellers are watching 3385+ like hawks. 🦅

XAUUSD Gold Possible Move 23.04.2025Gold (XAUUSD) Technical Analysis – April 23, 2025
The market is currently showing bearish momentum following a retracement from the recent highs near the 3,500 mark. Price is now approaching key Fibonacci levels, presenting potential shorting opportunities for intraday and swing traders.
Key Levels to Watch:
📉 Short Opportunity 1:
Zone: 3400-3410 USD (Fibonacci 0.5 to 0.618)
Analysis: This is a premium supply zone and a retracement area aligning with the Fibonacci golden pocket. If the price revisits this region and shows bearish confirmation (e.g., bearish engulfing, rejections, or lower timeframe structure break), it's a high-probability short entry zone.
Signal: Look for price rejection patterns in this zone to initiate a short position.
Stop-Loss: 3,430
Target: 3,292 initially, then lower if structure breaks
📉 Short Opportunity 2 (Breakout Trade):
Zone: 3,292 – 3,300 USD (Major Support)
Analysis: This is a major support zone. A clean break below and successful retest from underneath would signal continuation to the downside.
Signal: Wait for a break and retest below 3,292 for confirmation before entering short.
Stop-Loss: Above 3,300 on retest
Target: 3,240 and potentially 3,215 – 3,220 zone
Overall Bias:
Bearish below 3,396. Price action confirms lower highs and lower lows. Structure supports selling rallies or breakdowns.
GOLD DAILY CHART MID/LONG TERM UPDATEHey Everyone,
After updating our 1H and 4h chart idea last two days, please see update on our daily chart idea also playing out perfectly.
On our last update we stated that we were seeing price break out of the channel but will need ema5 to lock outside of the channel to confirm the breakout into the next level.
We got the candle body above 3297 and ema5 lock opening 3433 - This was hit perfectly completing this target. No further close above this level confirmed the rejection.
We are now looking for support above the channel top for a continuation or a ema5 lock inside the channel will see price play back into the channel levels.
This is the beauty of our Goldturn channels, which we draw in our unique way, using averages rather than price. This enables us to identify fake-outs and breakouts clearly, as minimal noise in the way our channels are drawn.
We will use our smaller timeframe analysis on the 1H and 4H chart to buy dips from the weighted Goldturns for 30 to 40 pips clean. Ranging markets are perfectly suited for this type of trading, instead of trying to hold longer positions and getting chopped up in the swings up and down in the range.
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 using our smaller timeframe ideas.
Our long term bias is Bullish and therefore we look forward to drops from rejections, which allows us to continue to use our smaller timeframes to buy dips using our levels and setups.
Buying dips allows us to safely manage any swings rather then chasing the bull from the top.
Thank you all for your likes, comments and follows, we really appreciate it!
