Gold 1H Intra-Day Chart 17.11.2024Gold markets are oversold so sooner or later we will see some form of short term recovery. Here is what I am looking for next;
Option 1: Gold prices dip lower keep lower towards the next target of $2,534 before prices recover.
Option 2: Gold keeps dropping towards $2,520 where price action will create some form of inverse H&S pattern.
DXY
EURUSD 17/11/24As we head into this week, we maintain a bearish bias on the EUR/USD pair. This aligns with last month’s trend, where we consistently sold this pair to the downside. Without a shift in bias, we expect this bearish momentum to continue.
Looking at the chart, we’ve identified two key areas of interest for potential selling opportunities. First, there’s a short-term high located around the middle of the current range. This is also a 4-hour high that swept previous short-term highs. Above this, we see an area of unmitigated supply that triggered the last major break of structure, along with a liquidity high just above it. If the price pulls back, it could interact with this supply zone and possibly take out the liquidity highs.
However, this pullback would be a counter-trend move. Our primary expectation remains for the price to continue its downward trajectory toward the lows. Last week, the price swept a daily low, highlighted by an arrow on the left-hand side of the screen. This sweep led to a notable upward push, which, while counter-trend, could serve as the catalyst for the pullback we anticipate.
The market open will be interesting to watch. If the price gaps upward, it could indicate an intent to move higher before potentially filling the gap later in the week. This would align with the bearish continuation we’ve forecasted.
Trade safe and stick to your plan.

DXY. When to Expect a Weak Dollar?Hello traders and investors!
At the end of September and the beginning of October, I analyzed AUDUSD and EURUSD, where the technical picture predicted a decline in these currencies against the dollar. You can find these posts in related ideas. There were discussions with colleagues about how many countries' economies need a weaker dollar. I wouldn’t mind profiting from a dollar decline either, but a month and a half ago, there were no signs of a DXY drop. Let's take a look at what the chart suggests and when this might happen.
Weekly Timeframe
A sideways range formed on the weekly chart in March 2023 (point 4 was established). The lower boundary is 99.099, and the upper boundary is 106.952. The buyer's vector 11-12 has reached its obligatory target — the price level of point 10 within the range (106.169). This means we can start watching for seller activity on the weekly timeframe. If the sellers show up, the seller's vector 12-13 becomes relevant, with potential targets of 99.807 and 99.099.
Note that the key bar (with the highest volume) of the buyer’s vector 11-12 is the bar from November 4.
Daily Timeframe
There’s a long trend on the daily chart. The last buyer's impulse ranges from 103.86 to 106.734. The key bar of the impulse (highest volume) is the bar from November 14.
Hourly Timeframe
On the hourly chart, a sideways range has formed. The lower boundary is 106.037, and the upper boundary is 106.734. The current buyer's vector 8-9 has potential targets of 106.681 and 106.734. From there, it's not far to 106.952 (the upper boundary of the weekly range).
Summary
The price has approached levels on the weekly TF where a reversal may begin. For now, there are no signs of a reversal on the weekly and daily TF. We need to see signs of seller activity on the weekly chart to look for short positions with the goal of realizing the seller's vector 12-13 in the weekly range.
You can look for long or short positions on the hourly chart by trading within the range from boundary to boundary (if the boundary holds).
Until the DXY reverses, looking for long positions in other currencies against the dollar is risky.
Good luck with your trading and investments!
EURAUD Trendline Break: Bearish Setup in FocusThe EURAUD pair has recently exhibited a significant technical shift, one that carries considerable implications for traders monitoring the market. Over the past sessions, the price has convincingly broken below a critical upward trendline that had been in place for an extended period. This trendline served as a structural backbone for the pair’s bullish trajectory, acting as a dynamic support level that repeatedly prevented deeper declines. However, the latest breach signals a notable change in sentiment and a potential transition from bullish momentum to bearish control.
The downward break was further reinforced by the price closing below the psychologically and technically significant 1.63000 level. This level has historically acted as a key pivot point, influencing the direction of price movements. The inability of buyers to maintain control above this level underscores the growing strength of bearish forces in the market. Moreover, the break below 1.63000 was not abrupt or erratic; it was accompanied by consistent selling pressure, which suggests a well-structured and deliberate shift in market dynamics.
Adding to the bearish outlook is the clear rejection of a previously well-defined resistance zone. This rejection occurred as the price attempted to test higher levels but was met with overwhelming selling interest, preventing further advances. This rejection serves as a pivotal turning point, highlighting that the bulls have lost the momentum they previously held. Traders often consider such rejections to be an early indication of a reversal, especially when combined with other bearish signals, as we are currently observing.
Delving deeper into the daily timeframe, an additional layer of bearish evidence becomes apparent. A prominent long-tailed bar has formed, reflecting intense selling pressure within the session. This candlestick pattern is particularly telling, as it signifies that buyers attempted to push the price higher but were ultimately overpowered by sellers. The extended upper wick represents an area of failed bullish attempts, while the close near the session’s low reinforces the dominance of bearish sentiment. When such a pattern emerges in conjunction with a trendline break and resistance rejection, it often signals the beginning of a more sustained downward move.
While the market appears poised for further declines, it is important to recognize that price movements rarely occur in a straight line. A potential scenario is the formation of a small pullback, where the price temporarily retraces higher before resuming its descent. This pullback could see the price testing the broken support of the trendline, which now holds the potential to act as a new resistance level. Such a retest would offer confirmation of the break and provide traders with an additional opportunity to enter short positions with a more favorable risk-to-reward ratio.
Looking ahead, the primary target for this bearish move is the support zone around 1.62440. This level holds significant technical importance due to its role as a historical support area where buyers have previously stepped in to defend against further declines. The market’s approach to this level will be crucial. If the bearish momentum remains strong and the price breaches this zone, it could open the door for further declines, potentially targeting lower levels of interest. On the other hand, a temporary bounce from this support could offer a brief reprieve for buyers, though the broader bearish context suggests such a bounce may be limited.
The confluence of technical factors driving this bearish scenario cannot be overstated. The break below the upward trendline marks a structural shift, while the rejection of resistance and the move beneath the 1.63000 level provide additional confirmation. The candlestick pattern on the daily chart further solidifies the bearish outlook, as does the prospect of a pullback offering a lower-risk entry for short trades. Together, these elements paint a compelling picture of a market transitioning into a bearish phase.
Traders should remain vigilant as the situation unfolds, closely monitoring price action for signs of a potential pullback and the subsequent behavior of the price near resistance levels. Similarly, the reaction to the 1.62440 support zone will be critical in determining the next phase of this move. For now, all indications suggest that the bearish sentiment is likely to persist, with the pair favoring further declines in the days ahead. As always, proper risk management and a disciplined approach will be key to capitalizing on this evolving opportunity.

GOLD → How long will the correction last? Emphasis on 2590FX:XAUUSD after a false breakdown of 2546 forms a pullback and tests 2577. It is quite adequate reaction after such a strong fall. The fundamental background is still negative, and the dollar is accelerating its growth.
Ambiguous economic data from China increased economic concerns. Uncertainty about future interest rate cuts by the US Federal Reserve also continues to weigh on the markets, especially after Powell said that there is no need to rush to cut rates as the economy is still growing, the labor market is robust and inflation is still above the 2% target.
Now all eyes are on the all-important retail sales report....
Technically, it is worth paying attention to 0.5-0.7 fibo and resistance at 2589. A false breakdown and consolidation below these areas may trigger a fall.
Resistance levels: 2577, 2589, 2594.
Support levels: 2546, 2531, 2500
At the moment, gold is hinting that the pullback up may be a bit prolonged. Most likely MM will go for liquidity (above these levels) before the news. False breakout may provoke bears to activity, which will only strengthen the sales.
But, a rebound from 0.5 fibo and a smooth return to 2546 will increase the chances of a breakdown and fall.
Rate, share your opinion and questions, let's discuss what's going on with ★ FX:XAUUSD ;)
Regards R. Linda!
XAUUSD - Gold waiting for the Hawkish Federal Reserve!Gold is below the EMA200 and EMA50 in the 30-minute timeframe. In case of breaking the resistance range or correction with low momentum, we can witness the continuation of the rise and see the limited supply and sell in that range with the appropriate risk reward.
Inflation Outlook and Economic Policies in the US and Their Impact on Markets
Consumer Price Increase in the US and Gradual Decline in Inflationary Pressures
• October Data:
In October, the US Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose by 0.2% compared to September. Core inflation (excluding energy and food) also increased by 0.3%, aligning with market expectations.
• Expert Analysis:
Dr. Christoph Balz and Bernd Weidensteiner from Commerzbank emphasized that while the data shows no significant progress, it indicates a gradual reduction in inflationary pressures.
• Core inflation remains far from the Federal Reserve’s 2% target, holding steady at 0.3%, similar to August and September.
• This suggests that inflation is likely to stay above the central bank’s target in the long term.
• Trump’s Policies and Inflation:
Economists predict that emerging economic policies under Trump, including higher tariffs and reduced immigration, may further strain the labor market and contribute to higher inflation in the long run.
Jerome Powell’s Remarks and Market Reactions
• No Need for Financial Policy Easing:
Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell stated that given strong economic growth, a robust labor market, and inflation still above the 2% target, there is no immediate need for monetary policy easing.
• Market Reaction:
These comments raised concerns among investors, signaling a potential slowdown in the pace of interest rate cuts.
US Dollar Outlook
• Stability and Growth of the Dollar:
According to Barclays Investment Bank, the US dollar will maintain its upward trajectory due to economic resilience and shifting market expectations regarding Federal Reserve interest rate policies.
• Factors Supporting Dollar Strength:
• Trump’s trade and fiscal policies, including higher tariffs and domestic initiatives, are key drivers of dollar strength.
• Barclays projects the dollar will remain strong and continue its upward trend through 2025.
• China’s efforts to boost its economy may have a limited impact on weakening the dollar but are unlikely to significantly disrupt its rising trajectory.
XAGUSD - Silver will continue to rise?!Silver is below the EMA200 and EMA50 in the 4H timeframe and is moving in its medium-term bullish channel. If the decline continues due to the current economic data, we can see demand zone and buy within that zone with a suitable risk reward. If the upward trend line is broken and the $30 range is maintained, we can see the continuation of the rise up to the level of $32.
Over the past year, silver struggled to keep pace with gold, as gold reached multiple record highs while silver remained below $30 an ounce for a prolonged period. However, according to one analyst, this trend may shift in 2025, with the gold-to-silver ratio expected to moderate from its recent highs.
Julian Wee, a market strategist at UBS, commented, “Gold remains a favored asset for portfolio risk hedging against various risks, but the shift from a ‘soft landing’ to ‘no landing’ argues for a balance between a defensive stance and exposure to economic growth. Silver, which has historically shown a high correlation with gold, may benefit more from increased industrial demand.”
Wee highlighted that amid rising geopolitical tensions, gold has emerged as a preferred hedge. He noted that gold “has risen 35% this year alone, and demand has remained strong amid numerous risk events and declining global interest rates. At least for this month, gold has asserted itself as a hedge against slower economic growth and rising inflation.”
He further remarked that silver, like gold, also exhibits an inverse relationship to risk aversion, thus serving a similar defensive role. “Amid resilient U.S. GDP growth, investors may find it beneficial to add to portfolios that maintain a strong defensive stance while gradually enhancing exposure to stronger economic growth,” he suggested.
According to Wee, silver is expected to see increased demand due to its widespread use in sectors like technology and electric vehicles, as well as in LED production, solar panels, and medical applications owing to its antibacterial properties. Industrial demand will likely lead to higher demand for physically-backed ETFs. On the supply side, mine production is anticipated to remain limited in 2025.
Jerome Powell, the Federal Reserve Chairman, discussed various factors affecting productivity growth, including the rise of new businesses and workforce mobility. He also noted that automation has contributed to productivity improvements.
Powell emphasized that the current monetary policy is restrictive, though the exact degree remains uncertain. He stated that the Federal Reserve has begun the process of rate reductions and is moving towards a neutral rate, underscoring the need for a gradual and careful approach.
Powell suggested that slowing the pace of rate cuts could be appropriate if data permits. He mentioned that the current monetary policy is well-positioned, providing space for rate reductions if needed, though a careful approach remains necessary. Powell also referred to the recent Producer Price Index (PPI) reading, which showed a slight increase, but he believes the inflation trajectory remains on the right path. He stressed that monetary policy should neither be overly restrictive nor overly lenient.
DXY reached the critical resistance zone. H4 15.11.2024 DXY reached the critical resistance zone 📉
Honestly, I didn't think they would push the dollar index to the final zone near 107
without a pullback, but they still did. Now they gave a clear reaction downwards
and it is very possible that the correction has started. Of course, we cannot deny
the possibility of retesting the highs and then continuing the fall, but in general,
the first signs of reversal and culmination have already appeared. It is very desirable
to close the week below 106.30 and then the idea of a false
breakdown of the 2-year highs will be confirmed.

GBPUSDHello Traders! 👋
What are your thoughts on GBPUSD?
This currency pair, after its recent decline and breaking through support levels, has now reached a key support zone. A corrective move and a pullback toward the broken levels are anticipated from this area. Once the correction is complete, the price is likely to resume its downward trend.
Don’t forget to like and share your thoughts in the comments! ❤️
Possible USD Strength Continuation?Here's the revised trading plan with the requested adjustments:
1 . Baseline Scenario :
- Macro-Fundamental Bias: Neutral to Slightly Dovish . The Federal Reserve has recently lowered the federal funds rate to 4.50% - 4.75%, reflecting a cautious approach to monetary easing. While inflation remains somewhat elevated, the Fed is balancing its dual mandate of supporting employment and controlling inflation. Current market expectations indicate a 59% probability of a quarter-point rate cut at the December meeting, down from 82.5%.
- Short Term Sentiment Bias: Bullish . The short-term sentiment on the USD is bullish, driven by Fed Chair Powell's recent comments on the strong economy and solid job market, which have reduced the likelihood of a December rate cut.
2. Risk Event Baseline :
- Market Expectations:
- Core Retail Sales m/m: Forecast 0.3% (Previous 0.5%)
- Retail Sales m/m: Forecast 0.3% (Previous 0.4%)
3. Surprise Scenarios:
- Positive Surprise :
- Plan: If retail sales figures exceed expectations, this will likely reinforce the bullish sentiment on the USD. Consider increasing long positions in USD pairs, particularly against currencies with dovish central banks. Additionally, look for opportunities in sectors that benefit from strong consumer spending, such as retail and consumer discretionary stocks.
- Negative Surprise :
- Plan: If retail sales figures come in below expectations, the market reaction is expected to be muted given the current sentiment. Maintain existing positions but be prepared to adjust if subsequent data or Fed communications indicate a shift in the economic outlook. Monitor for any signs of weakening consumer confidence or spending that could impact broader market sentiment.
