Consolidation

GOLD → Consolidation forms a trigger. Rally?FX:XAUUSD continues to rise amid weakening dollar demand due to Trump's imposition of new tariffs. GDP and Initial Jobless Claims ahead Gold is further supported by renewed concerns about a slowdown in the US economy due to trade duties. However, growth beyond ATH remains questionable due to geopolitical nuances. The market focus shifts to macroeconomic data: the final US GDP for the fourth quarter and jobless claims will be released today. Also the attention will be drawn to the speeches of the Fed representatives, who earlier made it clear that they are in no hurry to cut rates due to inflation risks caused by Trump's tariff policy Resistance levels: 3038, 3046, 3056 Support levels: 3033, 3025 The strong resistance is 3038. Breakdown and price consolidation above this level will provoke continuation of growth (there is a chance of ATH retest). But, since there is news ahead, gold may test the zone of interest and liquidity 3030-3025 before further growth. Regards R. Linda!

HelenP. I Gold will break trend line and continue to fallHi folks today I'm prepared for you Gold analytics. A while back, the price climbed to the level labeled Support 2, which also aligned with the support zone. After breaking through this level, it began to consolidate. This was followed by a retest, after which the price continued its upward movement and eventually reached Support 1 — a level that matched the upper boundary of the previous range. From there, a correction took place, bringing the price down to the trend line. Shortly after, gold resumed its climb and nearly reached the upper edge of the consolidation area again, but another correction to the trend line followed. Then, XAUUSD continued to rise, eventually reaching Support 1 and breaking above it, effectively exiting the range. Following this breakout, gold rallied to 3056 points before pulling back to the trend line. Since then, the price has been moving upward along this line. Currently, I anticipate that XAUUSD could rise to around 3050 points once more, then reverse and break below the trend line, continuing its downward move. In this scenario, my goal is set at 2980 points. If you like my analytics you may support me with your like/comment ❤️

GOLD → Price returns to the channel to form a bullish structureFX:XAUUSD is completing a correction, breaking channel resistance and consolidating above the downtrend line. Traders are waiting for economic data and tariff war actions Trump confirmed plans to impose retaliatory tariffs on April 2, limiting exemptions. The new duties have raised fears for the U.S. economy, which has weakened the dollar and boosted demand for gold.Markets are also keeping an eye on talks between the U.S., Ukraine and Russia.Focus is also on US durable goods orders data - a strong reading could cool expectations of a Fed rate cut, limiting gold's gains Resistance levels: 3033, 3045, 3056 Support levels: 3013, 3004 Gold may test the support zone before rising further. The focus is on the current consolidation 3033 - 3013. A key resistance is formed ahead, a breakdown of this zone may provoke a continuation of growth to 3045 - 3056. Regards R. Linda!

GBPUSD → Correction to the liquidity zone. Waiting for a FBFX:GBPUSD gets a negative CPI report in the early session and tests key support, but failing to reach the liquidity area a rebound is formed. The pair is in consolidation... The CPI report provoked a small liquidation in the market, within the framework of which the price tested one of the key supports at 1.2886, but the price did not enter the liquidity area, i.e. technically the chances to return to this area are quite high. A correction to the imbalance zone is being formed, from which the decline may continue. In the short term I am interested in 1.2868, which can still hold the market and form a bullish impulse. Resistance levels: 1.2926 Support levels: 1.2886, 1.2868, 1.2811 False break of the global range support at 1.2868 may trigger a rebound to 1.2926. I do not exclude a deeper correction to the support from D1, for example to 1.2811 from which, against the background of the bull market, we can wait for an upward correction. Regards R. Linda!

IPUSDT → Exit from the triangle may trigger a distribution ofBINANCE:IPUSDT.P is forming positive preconditions for possible growth. Bitcoin slightly revitalized the market after positive news related to SEC and XRP (the crypto community did not miss this fact) The IP coin was in consolidation for a long time - a symmetrical triangle. Rising lows, consolidation, breakout of triangle resistance give positive signs of readiness for distribution (realization of consolidation). Ahead is the key resistance at 5.6297 separating the market from the free zone Resistance levels: 5.6297, 6.631 Support levels: 5.116, 4.783 Price has been sticking to triangle resistance for the past few days and is gaining potential for breakout and realization. Numerous intraday retests of the area indicate the market's interest to break beyond this zone. A breakout of 5.6297 and price consolidation above the triangle will be a good signal of readiness to go up. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → Tense fundamental environment and retest of 3025FX:XAUUSD is forming a correction within the descending channel. The situation is becoming complex and confusing. The focus is on the channel resistance and on the support at 3004.9. Further price movement depends on the fundamental data... The problem is the uncertainty around the US tariff policy and the outcome of talks between Russia and the US on ceasefire in Ukraine. The market is focused on US consumer confidence data and comments from Fed officials. The rise in the dollar, supported by Bostic's hawkish statements and strong PMIs, is pressuring gold, but the lack of clarity on tariffs and geopolitical tensions are limiting its further decline Technically, the situation is simple in that it all depends on the resistance of the current channel. A break and consolidation above 3025 will trigger growth. A false break of the channel resistance will provoke a continuation of the decline both to 3004 and to 2980. Resistance levels: 3024.6, 3038, 3056 Support levels: 3004.9, 2987, 2981 Based on the difficult fundamental environment, which is far from any positive decisions, the tensions in the Middle East, and the tariff war, I can conclude that gold will try to strengthen once again, as we have technical support: a strong bullish trend, a strong 3004 level, and a cascade of locally rising lows. A failed breakdown will be false and in this case, a price consolidation under 3017 will trigger a fall to 3004. Regards R. Linda!

EURUSD → Price is in consolidation. Emphasis on false breakdownFX:EURUSD is forming a correction within the consolidation that was formed on the uptrend. The reason for the consolidation is the halt in the movement of the dollar index... The dollar is forming a counter-trend correction due to political and econmoic data, but the general background is bearish. But, the fall of the dollar, to which the index may soon return, may strengthen the growth of the currency pair. EURUSD consolidation within the uptrend (against the background of the dollar index correction). The zone of interest is the support at 1.078 and the imbalance area Resistance levels: 1.078, 1.074 Support levels: 1.0936.1.1009 The price has not tested the support and is forming a correction to the imbalance zone 1.087 - 1.09 from which the price may return to the downward movement to 1.078. The emphasis is on the range support from which we should wait for a false breakdown before further growth. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → Long squeeze (false break of uptrend support) FX:XAUUSD within the liquidation the price is testing the key support at 3004.9 and forms a false break of support. The trend is generally bullish as the geopolitical situation remains tense and carries high risks. Friday saw a liquidation phase relative to the consolidation at 3024-3045. Reason: the White House is expected to revise tariff policy, easing measures against key trading partners. Negotiations over the conflict in eastern Europe, where the U.S. is a key link, also support the positive sentiment. On Monday, market attention will focus on Russia-US talks, as well as preliminary PMI data that could affect the global economic outlook. The focus is on the current consolidation and the 3024 level. If the bulls hold their defenses above this level, gold will continue to strengthen. Resistance levels: 3045 - 3056 Support levels: 3024, 3004 The growth within the bullish trend may continue. The price is forming a consolidation between trend support and resistance at 3024. The emphasis is on 3024, if the bulls hold the defense over this zone, gold may head for a retest of the high (the initial reaction to ATH may trigger a pullback down) Regards R. Linda!

BITCOIN → Flag (consolidation) before falling to 78-73KBINANCE:BTCUSD is consolidating after a short-squeeze relative to 85-87K. A bearish set-up is being formed, the break of which may strengthen further decline to the key target of 73K A symmetrical triangle is forming within the downtrend on D1, a breakdown of this structure may strengthen the decline. Locally, within the channel a flag - bearish figure is formed (on the local TF false uptrend, the crowd enters to buy from the support or at the break of local resistance, at accumulation of the necessary potential the big player removes the limit order and releases the price, which is dispersed by liquidation of traders), regarding 85K-86.6K the liquidity capture is formed and the price returns to the selling zone. Consolidation below 85K may trigger a breakdown of the figure support and further fall to 80K-78K Fundamentally: the market sells off any positive news very quickly (negative background is created): crypto summits, (Trump said nothing new at the second summit) positive resolutions of problems (for example between SEC and XRP, or removal of restrictions from local exchanges) crypto reserve The only nuance, bitcoin's dominance index is still high despite the price drop... Resistance levels: 85150, 866700, 89400 Support levels: 82K, 80K, 78200 There are no positive signs for growth. The zone where we can consider a trend reversal ( if something supernatural happens ) is 89-91K, but it is very far away. But now I would consider a breakdown of the flag, or 83.5 - 82.5 and price consolidation below this zone with the purpose of further fall to the local important level 78173. Then another consolidation or correction is possible before a further fall to 73.5K Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → Consolidation (correction) before growth to $3100FX:XAUUSD is going into consolidation after strong growth on the back of dollar correction. The metal may test deeper support areas before attempting a new high Gold is correcting, but remains in an uptrend The decline in quotations may be seen as a buying opportunity, given the economic uncertainty due to Trump's tariffs and expectations of Fed rate cuts. The Fed reiterated its forecast of two rate cuts in 2025 despite Powell's cautious comments. Gold is further supported by rising inflation risks and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Resistance levels: 3045, 3057 Support levels: 3024, trending, 3004 Reaction to support is weakening, even amid the uptrend. Gold may stay in this consolidation until the middle of next week, or it may try to break out of the consolidation to retest deeper support zones, such as the rising trend line or the 3004 imbalance zone, from which the growth may resume.

HelenP. I Gold will rise a little more and then drop to $2985Hi folks today I'm prepared for you Gold analytics. After analyzing this chart, we can see that the price spent some time trading within a consolidation range before rebounding from the support zone to the upper boundary of this range. It then hovered around this area for a while before starting to decline. In a short time, the price dropped to the trend line, breaking through Support 2 and exiting the consolidation phase. Following this, the price reversed from the trend line and began to rise, soon reaching Support 2 again, breaking above it, and consolidating near this level. Later, it broke below the trend line and declined toward the support zone. After that, Gold made a strong upward impulse toward Support 1, also breaking the trend line. Shortly after, it breached Support 1 and traded within the support zone for some time before resuming its upward movement. However, I anticipate that XAUUSD will rise slightly before reversing and dropping back to the support level, breaking the trend line. Based on this scenario, my goal is set at 2985 level.

EURJPY → False breakout of key resistance ...FX:EURJPY is forming a false breakdown of resistance and draws us a reversal pattern against the upper boundary of the descending price channel, as well as the pressure on the market creates the correction of the dollar... On the daily chart the structure is bearish. After the false breakout of the global resistance a correction is formed, within which the price can test the imbalance zone or the previously broken resistance and continue its fall after the liquidity capture. The global trend is neutral and in this case it is worth considering local support levels as targets Resistance levels: channel boundary, 162.3, 163.0 Support levels: 160.84, 158.9 A retest of the channel resistance or the area of 162.4 - 163 is possible. But any return of the price under the resistance of the descending channel and consolidation of the price in the selling zone may provoke further decline Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → Fading out before the news. Possible long-squeezeFX:XAUUSD continues its bullish trend, but locally, the movement is in a very narrow channel (wedge). To form a potential for further movement, the price may form a long-squeeze before or at the time of news... Fundamentally, gold remains a bullish asset due to the Fed's rate cut forecasts and economic risks associated with Trump's tariff policy. Gold hit a new high on Wednesday after the Fed reiterated plans to cut rates twice this year, raised its inflation forecast and worsened growth and employment estimates.The price is further supported by escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, with Israel announcing the resumption of ground operations in Gaza. Gold is forming a bull market. Before further growth (before the news) the price may enter the liquidity zone (fvg, 3028, 3024), after which it will continue to grow. Dollar enters local correction before the news, which creates pressure on gold Resistance levels: 3046, 3051, 3056 Support levels: 3038, 3030, 3024 Price is forming a retest of the wedge support, which increases the chances of a breakdown. If the support fails to hold, the price may go down to the above support before rising further. But! If gold bounces from 3038 and consolidates above 3044, the growth will continue without a deep pullback Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → Consolidation ahead of Fed rate meeting...FX:XAUUSD goes into consolidation 3038 - 3024 before the news - Fed rate meeting. The situation is generally predictable, but gold is reacting to rising geopolitical risks. Gold is stabilizing before the Fed decision , markets are waiting for the data. The regulator is expected to keep rates, but Powell's forecasts will determine further dynamics. “Hawkish” tone of the Fed may lead to the strengthening of the dollar and gold correction. “Dovish” signals about economic risks will support the growth of metal prices. Geopolitical tensions and Trump's tariffs continue to have an impact.The market is preparing for high volatility on the background of the Fed's decision and events in the world Resistance levels: 2038, 2045 Support levels: 3024, 3015, 3004.9 Several scenarios can be considered for trading: Breakdown of resistance 3038 - 3045, consolidation of the price above the level with subsequent growth to 3050 - 3060. Or wait for the reaction to the news and with a possible breakdown of support to look for strong levels to trade a false breakdown, for example 3024, 3015, 3005. Regards R. Linda!

USDJPY → Resistance retest (wedge) before the Fed meetingFX:USDJPY is forming a correction to trend resistance as part of the dollar index consolidation. An interesting situation is forming which could be a continuation of the downtrend. Fundamentally, today is an important day. The FED interest rate meeting is ahead. Traders are waiting, the dollar is consolidating at this time. Most likely the rate will remain unchanged, but in this key everyone is interested in Powell's comments on monetary policy and their future actions. USDJPY at this time is forming a correction to the bearish trend resistance, before the news the currency pair may test the resistance conglomerate: a wedge, 0.79 fibo, or an orderblock located outside the channel Resistance levels: 150.16, 150.95 Support levels: 148.92 False breakout of the resistance zone can provoke a fall, as well as breakdown of the support of the “wedge” with the subsequent consolidation of the price in the selling zone. The price may test the zone of interest at 147.6, 146.54. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → Consolidation for continued growth. 3025?FX:XAUUSD is consolidating between 2981 - 2993. After strong growth there is no hint of a possible reversal, and consolidation above the channel boundary indicates readiness to continue growth The gold price remains below the record $3,005 but is supported by the trade war, geopolitical tensions and expectations of Fed policy easing. The escalating US conflict with Yemen, the escalation in Gaza and possible talks between Trump and Putin are boosting demand for defensive assets. China's stimulus is also supporting prices. U.S. retail sales data may influence the dollar and further gold movement, but investors are cautious in anticipation of the Fed meeting. Resistance levels: 2993, 3008 Support levels: 2891, 2956 Consolidation is being formed, regarding which, against the background of the bullish trend, two strategies can be considered: 1) resistance breakdown and consolidation above 2993 with the purpose of growth continuation 2) false breakdown of support 2981 and further growth after liquidity capture.

NZDJPY → Attempting to change the downtrendFX:NZDJPY is trying to get out of the downtrend by breaking the channel resistance. Against the background of local strengthening of the dollar, the currency pair has all chances. Technically, buyers are starting to gain momentum and support the market, it can be seen on the background of locally growing minmiums, which gradually leads to the breakout of the channel resistance. The trigger in our case is the resistance 85.240 - a key level that divides the market into 2 planes. If the bulls are able to consolidate above 85.240, an impulse to 86.13, then 86.88 may be formed in the short-term. Support levels: 84.500, 84.00 Resistance levels: 85.240, 86.13 Initial testing of the trigger may end in a small pullback due to liquidity formed above. The pullback may be directed towards the previously broken channel resistance. But the emphasis is on price consolidation above 85.240, as this will be a prerequisite that the bulls are holding the market in the moment and are ready to keep going up. Regards R. Linda!

EURAUD → False breakout & Pin-Bar on W1FX:EURAUD is testing important resistance from the weekly timeframe. A false breakout is formed after liquidity capture. There is no potential for continuation of growth and the chart is drawing everyone's favorite “pin-bar” After the price exits the consolidation, the resistance of which was the level of 1.6787, a distributive pattern is formed, the target of which was the liquidity behind the weekly resistance of 1.7196. The target has been reached and the price is consolidating below the base of the reversal structure and thus preparing to continue falling. It is possible formation of liquidation or downward impulse to 1.71 - 1.70. The forex market has been behaving calmly since the opening of the week and the market can work out technical nuances calmly, until the fundamental factors are connected. Resistance levels: 1.7196 - 1.7304 Support levels: 1.7107, 1.7016 Zones of interest are located behind the local lows, but from a technical point of view, the market is most interested in liquidity beyond 1.6787 and there are all chances to reach this zone, as there are no obstacles below 1.7016. Accordingly, when the support at 1.7016 is broken, a free zone will open up Regards R. Linda!

BITCOIN → Short-squeeze 86-89K before falling further to 75KBINANCE:BTCUSD continues to form a downtrend after breaking the bullish structure on the weekly timeframe. There is no bullish driver yet, and technically, the price is heading to the global imbalance zone of 75-73K The past crypto summit and any other talk of cryptovalt support cannot support the market. Such events end with further market decline. Technically, the market continues to form a downtrend (global counter-trend), based on this alone, we can say that the price is now going against the crowd and this is generally logical behavior. Globally, the zone of interest is located in the following zones - 75K, 73K and order block 69-66K Locally, I would emphasize the nearest liquidity zones, located at the top, which can be tested before the further fall: 86697, 89.397 Resistance levels: 85135, 86678, 89397 Support levels: 79987, 78173, 73512 After the false break of 78K support there is no strong reaction, the market is forming a struggle for 84-85K zone, which generally indicates buying weakness. Before the further fall there may be a short-squeeze relative to the above mentioned zones of liquidity, which may lead to a further fall Regards R. Linda!
