Gold rebounds despite trade optimism - levels to watchBased on the fact that equity markets have surged higher amid trade optimism, one would have expected gold to head lower. Well, it did fall in the last couple of days but it was trading near the session highs at the time of writing, up more than 1.1% on the session. The US dollar had weakened after staging a rally the day before, while the situation between India and Pakistan also probably played a role. But one has to wonder whether a rug pull is on the way soon. Keep an eye on potential resistance around 3345-50 area...support comes in at 3320 - if we break this level then a revisit of the overnight lows could be on the cards.

Gold head and shoulders bottom trend, bull market strong?🗞News side:
1. Tariffs push up inflation and slow down the economy, and the Federal Reserve may be in trouble
2. The situation between India and Pakistan escalates again
📈Technical aspects:
At the hourly level, today's Asian session continued the "wash-out" operation characteristics, quickly rising by 20 US dollars at the opening, and then stepped back to 3310 to confirm the top and bottom conversion support level. The two positive lines seemed to form a "yang-enclosing-yin" upward attack pattern, but suddenly reversed, not only breaking the trend support line of 3280, but also falling to 3274 before bottoming out and rebounding. This erratic trend has a significant long-short double kill effect for investors accustomed to trend continuation strategies. However, we can accurately find the right position in the market to trade and make profits.
At present, it is expected to form a "head and shoulders bottom" pattern from a morphological perspective, accumulating momentum for subsequent rises, and there is still room for upside in the short term. At present, any pullback is an opportunity for us to go long. Pay attention to the 3360-3370 line suppression on the top. If this resistance area is broken, it may open up a new round of upward space.

Gold is in shock again, will the short position continue?🗞News side:
1. Tariffs push up inflation and slow down the economy, and the Federal Reserve may be in trouble
2. The situation between India and Pakistan escalates again
📈Technical aspects:
Gold experienced a big plunge yesterday, and today it bottomed out near 3275 again and then started to rebound. The current gold price is caught in a wide range of fluctuations, with long and short positions frequently alternating to impact the market, making it difficult to form a unilateral trend. At present, the gold price once rebounded to around 3330. If the gold price breaks through the 3336 line, short-term trading in the European market may touch the upper level near 3350, or even the 3365 line. Today's market cannot chase the rise and sell the fall. Overall, it is still a wide range of fluctuations. It should be a violent roller coaster before the subsequent surge. The European session relies on the low point of 3310 to step back as a defense, focusing on the upper 3350-3360, and further close the key resistance of 3370. The short-term focus below is the support of 3280-3290.
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 XAUUSD Possible Move 9th May 2025🟨 XAUUSD (Gold) Analysis – 09 May 2025
Market Structure Overview:
The market was previously in a bearish trend, forming consecutive Lower Lows (LL) and Lower Highs (LH).
A bullish shift in structure occurred when price formed a Higher Low (HL) followed by a Higher High (HH), breaking and closing above the previous Lower High.
This break of structure signals a potential trend reversal or deeper pullback in progress.
Key Levels:
Support Zone (Demand): Around 3,315 – 3,325 (recent breakout zone and potential retest area).
Resistance Zone (Supply): Around 3,365 – 3,375 (previous structural HH + liquidity pool).
Expectations:
If price sustains above the 3,315–3,325 support zone, we expect a continuation to the upside targeting the 3,365–3,375 supply zone.
If price fails to hold above support, a rejection and continuation to the downside toward 3,280 is likely.
🔔 Trading Signal (Setup Idea):
Type: Buy (Conditional)
Entry:
Buy on confirmation from support (e.g., bullish engulfing, FVG, or sweep + bullish structure) around 3,320–3,325.
Stop Loss:

Take Profit:
TP1: 3,340 (minor resistance)
TP2: 3,365–3,375 (major supply zone)
Risk/Reward: Minimum 1:2 RRR

Use volume, OBV, or momentum divergence for additional confirmation.

XAU/USD: Gold Regains Strength After Pullback – New Highs Ahead?By analyzing the gold chart on the 2-hour timeframe, we can see that yesterday, as expected, gold surged above $3400, reaching as high as $3439 before facing strong selling pressure, dropping sharply to $3359.
Currently, gold is trading around $3385, and if the price can hold above $3366, we may expect further bullish momentum. I believe gold is setting up for another move above $3400, potentially aiming to break into new highs once again.

GOLD - Price can bounce up to $3475 points, exiting from pennantHi guys, this is my overview for XAUUSD, feel free to check it and write your feedback in comments👊
A few moments ago price traded inside flat, where it two times broke $3045 levels and then made impulse up.
Price exited from flat and continued to grow inside a pennant pattern, where it later reached $3320 level.
Then Gold broke this level and rose to resistance line of a pennant, and then made a correction to support level, and then broke it.
After this, the price declined to the support line of the pennant, after which it turned around and bounced up.
Gold broke $3320 level and rose to resisance line of pennant, but recently it made correction to this level.
So, now I expect that price can bounce up from this level to $3475, thereby exiting from pennant pattern.

GOLD falls sharply then recovers slightly from key confluenceOANDA:XAUUSD fell sharply and recovered slightly, as expectations of more such deals increased after US President Donald Trump announced a “groundbreaking” trade deal with the UK, undermining the metal’s appeal as a safe-haven asset.
The US and UK have reached a deal and markets are expecting more “tariff-free” avenues
Trump and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer jointly announce the signing of a trade deal
• The UK will reduce tariffs on US goods from 5.1% to 1.8%;
• The US will maintain a uniform tariff of 10% on UK imports;
• The UK will further ease market access for US goods.
The US and China will continue high-level talks this Saturday
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and Trade Representative Jamieson Greer will meet with top Chinese economic officials in Switzerland on Saturday to discuss the outlook for trade relations.
Gold prices have hit record highs in recent months, largely due to global tensions caused by Trump's tariff policies.
China's central bank allows banks to buy foreign currency to import gold, signaling potential support
The People's Bank of China has approved commercial banks to buy foreign currency in the latest quota to pay for gold imports, supporting the possibility of increased physical gold demand in the market in the future.
With the implementation of the US-UK agreement, the recovery of risk appetite in the market and the approaching US-China negotiations, the safe-haven demand for gold has temporarily eased, and technical downward pressure has also emerged.
In addition, traders need to pay special attention to geopolitical developments with the focus on Russia - Ukraine when Ukraine has taken actions despite Russia's warnings on May 9.
Any escalation of the conflict will immediately support gold's sudden price increase.
Analysis of OANDA:XAUUSD technical outlook
On the daily chart, after a sharp decline from the weekly target of $3,430, gold's decline has paused and recovered slightly from the 0.382% Fibonacci retracement level. The area around $3,292 is also an important support area as it is a confluence of important technical support factors, with the appearance of EMA21 (major support), the lower edge of the price channel which is the short-term trend price channel and the 0.382% Fibonacci retracement level.
As long as gold remains above $3,292, it still has a bullish outlook in the short term, and in case gold falls below this level, it will likely test technical support at $3,267 in the short term, more than $3,245.
For the day, with the current position, gold still has a bullish outlook, and the notable points will be listed as follows.
Support: $3,300 – $3,292 – $3,267
Resistance: $3,351 – $3,371

GOLD INTRADAY overbought consolidation supported at 3265 US-UK Trade Deal & Tariffs:
President Trump and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced a limited trade deal, but a 10% tariff on UK goods remains. The US plans to announce more trade deals soon, though existing tariffs on most countries will largely stay.
China Tariff Talks:
The US may cut tariffs on Chinese goods from 145% to 50%, boosting market optimism. Top US and Chinese officials will meet in Switzerland on Saturday to discuss trade and economic matters.
Federal Reserve & USD:
The Fed signaled no interest rate cuts soon, despite economic uncertainty. The US Dollar retreated after hitting a four-week high, supporting gold prices.
Geopolitical Tensions:
Conflicts involving Russia-Ukraine, Israel-Houthis, and tensions between India and Pakistan are increasing geopolitical risks, which boosts demand for gold as a safe haven.
FOMC Speakers & Market Outlook:
Investors await comments from key Fed officials on Friday for clues about future rate policy. This could influence USD demand and gold prices, which are on track for modest weekly gains.

DeGRAM | GOLD held the support line📊 Technical Analysis
● OANDA:XAUUSD tagged the purple support line at $3 300 inside the green demand zone, then printed a bullish engulfing candle.
● Price is climbing within the rising‑channel mid‑band; reclaiming the black support level $3 360 should propel gold to the upper resistance level near $3 500. Long view void on a close below $3 200.
💡 Fundamental Analysis
● Fed Vice‑Chair Jefferson signalled rates are “sufficiently restrictive” amid cooling CPI base effects, pressuring real yields and the USD.
✨ Summary
Channel‑base rebound plus strong Asian demand and a dovish Fed backdrop support a short‑term long: targets $3 360 → $3 500; invalidate under $3 200.

XAUUSD: 9/5 Today's Market Analysis and StrategyGold technical analysis
4-hour chart resistance level 3360, support level 3280
1-hour chart resistance level 3340, support level 3300
30-minute chart resistance level 3330, support level 3310.
In the 4-hour chart, MACD crosses below the zero axis, and KDJ diverges downward. If it stands firm at 3340, the short-term chart will trigger a larger correction. Now the downward trend has not changed.
Gold prices fell back below $3,400 on Thursday, the rally paused, and a sharp downward adjustment began.
The momentum depicted by the relative strength index (RSI) shows that buyers are losing momentum. This is negative for bulls, as a break below $3,300 could intensify the downward trend, perhaps towards the May 1 low of $3,202.
If the price of gold breaks through $3340, this may push the price back to 3370~3400! There is no important news data today, so the volatility of gold in the US market may weaken today, and you can sell high and sell low for the time being. Next week's U.S. CPI data will be a key variable in determining the next direction of gold prices. If inflation is higher than expected, it may once again ignite fluctuations in the gold market.
SELL: 3345 SL: 3350
BUY: 3305 SL: 3300
Trade cautiously and pay attention to the speech of Fed officials today
GOLD Is Going Down! Sell!
Take a look at our analysis for GOLD.
Time Frame: 15m
Current Trend: Bearish
Sentiment: Overbought (based on 7-period RSI)
Forecast: Bearish
The market is testing a major horizontal structure 3,321.83.

The term oversold refers to a condition where an asset has traded lower in price and has the potential for a price bounce.
Overbought refers to market scenarios where the instrument is traded considerably higher than its fair value. Overvaluation is caused by market sentiments when there is positive news.

Gold Slips Toward $3,290 on Trade OptimismGold extended losses for a third day, dropping toward $3,290 as market appetite for risk improved ahead of U.S.-China trade talks. The announcement of a U.S.-UK trade deal also contributed to reduced safe-haven demand. The Fed held rates steady as expected, warning of risks to inflation and jobs but avoiding any hint of preemptive cuts. Still, gold is poised for a weekly gain.
Resistance is seen at $3,360, $3,430, and $3,500, while support holds at $3,270, $3,200, and $3,165.
Gold's Bearish Momentum Builds from PRZ-Short SetupGold ( OANDA:XAUUSD ) started to decline exactly from PRZ (previous idea) as I expected in my previous idea . And with the loss of the Support zone($3,387-$3,357) we can expect further decline.
Gold is currently moving near the Resistance zone($3,387-$3,357 ) and the Potential Reversal Zone(PRZ) .
From the Elliott Wave theory , Gold appears to have completed a five-wave impuls e and we should expect corrective waves . Since the momentum of the second decline that broke the Support zone($3,387-$3,357) is high , the correction is expected to continue and Gold appears to be completing a pullback .
---------------------------------------------
The US Unemployment Claims Index was also released a few minutes ago, and let's take a look and examine the possible impact on Gold .
This better-than-expected data confirms a stronger U.S. labor market , reducing the urgency for the Fed to cut rates anytime soon .
Impact on Gold :
A resilient job market supports the hawkish stance of the Fed , which could keep downward pressure on Gold in the short term as yields and the dollar remain firm.
However, traders should remain cautious and watch for upcoming data and Fed commentary, which could shift the tone.
---------------------------------------------
I expect Gold to start falling from Potential Reversal Zone(PRZ) to the targets I have indicated on the chart. The first target could be around $3,319 .
Note: If Gold touches $3,401(the worst Stop Loss(SL)), we can expect the resistance lines to break and gold to rise further.

Gold Tests 3350–3370 Zone Ahead of FOMCGold surged after breaking out of the wedge formation as expected and reached a new high, though still below the 3,500 level. Now, the focus shifts to the 3,350–3,370 zone. While $20 is a relatively wide range for a support zone, this area previously acted as a supply zone and is now functioning as a demand zone.
Still, despite a day marked by rising conflict risk between India and Pakistan, new easing measures from China’s central bank, and an announcement of additional gold buying, gold looks weaker than expected. One possible reason is the overly optimistic rate cut expectations from the Fed. That optimism may be tested at today’s FOMC meeting, where I believe Powell will deliver a slightly hawkish message.
For any meaningful downside move, the 3,350–3,370 zone must be broken first. Until then, the bulls will try to hold on to control.
Gold in a Range — Caution for BuyersHey traders and investors!
On the daily timeframe, gold remains in a sideways range (marked by black lines).
The seller's initiative is still active and hasn't reached its target yet.
A seller zone has formed — highlighted by a red rectangle on the chart.
It’s better to look for buy setups around 3260 and 3201-3167.
This analysis is based on the Initiative Analysis concept (IA).
Wishing you profitable trades!
Hellena | EUR/USD (4H): LONG to the resistance area 3495.Colleagues, price has successfully formed an “ABC” correction and I see that the upward movement is not over.
I think that wave “5” of the higher order consists of five waves and at the moment wave “1” of the lower order is formed.
This means that I predict a target at the high of wave 3495.
Presumably correction “2” can reach a rougher target in the area of 3240.

$SPY Its time according to my chart.. Lower high is the trigger I posted two charts for reference to the current situation. With a historic rally right into resistance and a fractal analog that matches, I have no choice but to remain bearish. These are my studies. Sometimes Impatience leads to things like Impulsive Entries and Exits, Revenge Trading, and at times, even Blown Accounts. Times like those should be followed by a regroup and a reset.
The 9 Count Sell Signal Triggered with a Reset is on Technical Inidators for a move lower. I do believe we are going to consolidate for several days but nothing further than the second week of May. Today Bulls got extremely bullish and still were not able to hold the highs into the close. The test of the 200 day SMA was rejected and several days near these leveles whether above or below, would prove the downside move more possible. The monthly on SPX is my biggest indicator, personally. If it follows the pattern I'm following then after a test of the 10WMA, we will roll back over on the next 10 day candle. The market ran through a death cross without stopping, which if anyone were to study for several minutes, they would be able to see any first attempt at a death cross to the upsde is almost immediately met with a selloff back to the lows of the breakout move. Good luck everybody.
