Gold Analysis One Hour Time Frame
One hour time frame I still expect an increase to hit the ceiling of the descending channel, even if it breaks this ceiling with a shadow... For today, the support areas and the important area of FVG, whose center is marked, are important support points that can be seen and triggered by Bayer to continue on the path.
Goldlong
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.
The unilateral offensive is fierce: the bulls have clear goalsGold is performing strongly sideways. We are in the same rhythm as yesterday and continue to maintain bullishness. Gold broke through the key resistance of 3280 on Tuesday and then rose strongly. It is currently above the area near 3330. The technical side shows that the bullish trend continues. The next target may point to the high of 3400. After rising continuously on Monday and Tuesday, it slightly adjusted back to around 3285 on Wednesday and stabilized before rising again. The daily line closed positive and stood firmly on the middle track. The Bollinger band opened upward, and the upper track pressure was at 3400, suggesting that the medium-term upward space is open. The Bollinger band opened significantly, the moving average was arranged in a bullish pattern, and the upward momentum was strong. Short-term support focuses on the moving average at 3315. If the correction does not break this position, the trend long order can follow up. If the key resistance of 3350 is effectively broken, it will further open up the upward space.
Gold operation suggestions: continue to go long after stepping back to 3320-3315, with a target of 3350. If it rises to around 3350 without breaking, you can arrange short-term short orders, with a target of 3330.
XAUUSD Break & Retest | Buy-Side Continuation SetupGold (XAUUSD) has made a solid bullish comeback after bouncing off the demand zone at 3,317–3,319, where we saw a surge in buying interest following a quick liquidity sweep. This bounce not only confirms the demand but also lays the groundwork for a potential continuation of the upward trend.
Right now, the price action is breaking through some minor intraday structures, shifting the market sentiment back in favor of buyers. The move above 3,320 shows a clear bullish intent, aiming for the supply zone overhead around 3,325–3,328. This area represents the last major distribution before the previous sell-off, making it a key short-term resistance point.
From a structural perspective, this setup follows a classic demand-hold and supply-target strategy, backed by intraday momentum and a trendline breakout. As long as the price stays above 3,317, the bullish outlook remains intact.
The target area stretches toward 3,328 and 3,331, where we might see some profit-taking or new selling. If those levels are surpassed, we could see further gains into the 3,335–3,340 range.
🔍 Key Confluences:
Strong rejection from the previous support zone
Clear bullish structure (Higher Highs & Higher Lows on the 5-minute timeframe)
Momentum aligned with the Asia–London session overlap
Price trading above key EMAs (optional, if included)
🎯 Trade Plan Overview:
Entry: Breakout or retest at 3,319–3,320
Stop Loss: Below 3,317 (this would invalidate the demand)
Take Profit 1: 3,328
Take Profit 2: 3,331
Final Target (optional): 3,335+ (if the breakout continues)
📣 Bias:
Bullish — until demand is broken with strong volume.
Gold (XAU/USD) Bullish Breakout Trade Setup – Targeting $3,4201. Entry Point Zone (~3,302.88 - 3,317.09):
This is the area where a long position (buy) is suggested.
The price has already moved slightly above this zone, indicating the trade may have already been triggered.
2. Stop Loss (~3,260.41 - 3,299.02):
Positioned below the entry zone to limit downside risk.
Suggests that if the price drops below this support zone, the trade idea is invalidated.
3. Target Point (3,420.41):
A bullish target suggesting a potential upside move of ~117.62 points (or ~3.56%).
This zone acts as a take-profit level.
4. Technical Indicators:
Moving averages (possibly 50 EMA in red and 200 EMA in blue) show a bullish crossover recently, supporting the upward momentum.
5. Pattern Outlook:
The chart implies a possible cup-and-handle or bullish consolidation breakout pattern, anticipating continuation upward.
Summary:
The strategy depicted is a bullish breakout setup:
Buy near 3,302.88–3,317.09
Stop Loss near 3,260–3,299
Take Profit near 3,420
This setup favors buyers as long as the price remains above the stop-loss zone. If the market holds this structure, there's a good risk-reward ratio for a move to 3,420.41.
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.

Will gold continue to rise as risk aversion heats up?
📌 Gold driving factors
At present, the current market sentiment has turned cautious, driving safe-haven funds into gold. Previously, Moody's downgraded the US sovereign credit rating, and President Trump's promotion of a large-scale tax cut bill is expected to be passed by Congress, further strengthening the theme of "selling the United States" and exerting continuous pressure on the US dollar.
In addition, the resurgence of disputes between the United States and China on the chip issue, and the news that the Group of Seven is considering imposing tariffs on cheap Chinese products, have exacerbated the uncertainty of the global economic outlook, further suppressing the US dollar, while supporting gold, a traditional safe-haven asset, to an eight-day high. Gold prices also benefited from the heating up of geopolitical tensions. CNN reported that several US officials revealed that Israel is preparing to launch a strike on Iran's nuclear facilities.
📊Commentary Analysis
The current market is still running in a range of shocks. Therefore, the US market is still trading repeatedly around the range for the time being. For the time being, the small range will temporarily look at the 3320-3285 line!
💰Strategy Package
Gold: Short when it retreats to around 3325-3320, stop loss at 3330, target around 3290! For long orders, look at the support situation and then enter the market at the right time!
⭐️ Note: Labaron hopes that traders can properly manage their funds
- Choose the number of lots that matches your funds
- Profit is 4-7% of the fund account
- Stop loss is 1-3% of the fund account
At this point market successfully taped into the!Gold Market Analysis – Bullish Momentum Building
Gold has recently broken through a significant call option (CE) resistance level, signaling heightened bullish aggression among market participants. This breakout suggests that buyers are currently in control, pushing prices decisively above the CE threshold.
At this point, the market has successfully tapped into the previous swing low liquidity and appears to be forming buy-side liquidity above the current price action. With this structure, we anticipate a potential move toward the Fair Value Gap (FVG) zone marked on the chart. A clean breakout above this FVG, followed by a retest and successful hold of that level, would serve as a strong confirmation of continued bullish intent.
Should this scenario play out, our next upside targets lie in the 3320–3330 range. Traders are advised to monitor price action closely and wait for confirmation signals before making entries. Strategic decision-making is key—avoid emotional trading and prioritize high-probability setups.

7 Gold Trades That Banked Over $2,500 LAST WEEK – Steal My StratMy strategy is straightforward: I trade order blocks, target premium/discount zones, and capitalize on liquidity sweeps. When these three signals align on the chart, I enter without hesitation.
Gold triggered a strong reaction off a bullish order block at $3192-3120 after forming it on May 15th( also can be seen as STB), confirming a robust uptrend and a global reversal from a deep discount zone( can be seen on 4h time frame). For the bullish momentum to solidify, price must break and close above $3250
So i will keep an eye on GOLD chart and prefer long trader to shorts
Gold is rising strongly, can it retreat and go long today?🗞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:
Yesterday we gave the view that there would be suppression at the 3290 level above, but affected by geopolitics, risk aversion sentiment rose again. Today, the moving average spread upward, and the Bollinger Bands opened and expanded, and the situation is still bullish. At present, we need to pay attention to the key short-term support level, focusing on the 3280-3285 support line. If the price retreats to this level and does not weaken, it can be considered as an opportunity for us to go long. If the resistance of 3320 is broken through strongly, the upper target will move up, and the lower support will also move up accordingly. 3300 will be converted into an entry opportunity for bulls to pull back. Therefore, we need to observe the price continuity in the European session. If the European session continues to break highs, the US session's correction will still be mainly based on long positions. During the day, it is recommended to wait for gold to retreat to 3290-3280 and try to arrange long positions, looking upward to 3320-3330.

Gold fluctuates, short-term pullback continues to go long
Gold fluctuated and retreated on Tuesday, testing the lowest line of 3205 downward. It can be seen that the market still does not have continuity, and the fluctuation space is also narrowing. The 1H cycle began to close, and the market was brewing a unilateral trend. After the daily line rebounded, it fluctuated around the short-term moving average. The direction was not clear. Short-term trading should not be pursued and sold at a loss. Operations should be carried out at a certain point.
From the perspective of the hourly line cycle, it is testing the low point of Monday's retracement, forming a short-term double bottom structure. Pay attention to short-term retracement and long positions, pay attention to 3218/3226 support for long positions, and pay attention to 3252/3265 positions above.
“Gold Surfer – Is Wave 5 About to Begin?”📈 This daily Elliott Wave analysis of the gold market (XAUUSD) tracks the impulsive advance from the September 2022 low ($1614). We now stand at a critical juncture: has Wave 4 completed, opening the path for Wave 5?
🔹 **Aggressive Scenario:** If the correction (ABC) is over, a new bullish Wave 5 could take gold first toward the $3884 zone, and potentially to expanded targets of $4126–$4275.
🔹 **Conservative Scenario:** If the correction continues, alternate patterns (flat, triangle, or complex correction) may still unfold. However, as long as price holds **above $3120**, the bullish wave structure remains valid.
🔻 **Invalidation Level:** $3120.86
🟢 The wave structure so far aligns with Elliott’s classic principles, and the bullish momentum still has room to unfold.
– Patterns whisper. I listen.
– Mr. Nobody 🎧📊
Trend trading is the core strategyGold opened at 3290 and rebounded, reaching 3314 and retreating. Last night, gold broke through the box and oscillated, so it is reasonable to continue to move up. The gold moving average continues to cross upward and diverge. The strength of gold bulls is still there. The decline of gold is an opportunity to continue to go long. Gold is now at the top and bottom conversion position of 3275-85. Gold falls back to 3275-3285 and continues to go long. Gold has repaired the gap of the previous gap. In the short term, pay attention to the suppression of 3315-21. Try not to chase the high position. We will intervene in the long position when it falls back.
Today, the support below is around 3275-85, and the upper short-term focus is on the 3315-21 line. If it does not break, you can short. The important resistance is 3340-45. The short-term long-short strength and weakness watershed is 3253-60. The daily level stabilizes above this position and continues to maintain the same low-long rhythm. Shorting can only enter the market at key points, and enter and exit quickly, and do not fight.
Gold operation strategy:
1. Go long when gold falls back to around 3275-85, with a target of 3300-3320.
2. Go short when gold rebounds around 3340-45, with a target of 3320-3300.

GOLD at a Decision Point – Inverse Head & Shoulders vs. Channelhello guys!
Gold is currently forming a potential Inverse Head and Shoulders pattern at the bottom of a descending channel. This setup typically signals a reversal, but it faces a critical test at the neckline resistance and channel midline.
📌 Scenarios to Watch:
1️⃣ Bullish Breakout:
If the neckline is broken with strong momentum, we could see a continuation toward the upper resistance near $3,340, aligning with the descending channel’s top.
2️⃣ Bearish Rejection:
Failure to break the neckline could result in a sharp rejection, pushing gold back down toward the demand zone at $3,055–$3,075, especially if price respects the mid-channel resistance.
🔍 Key Technical Insights:
🧩 Inverse Head & Shoulders pattern forming
📉 Still trading inside a bearish descending channel
🛑 Neckline and midline confluence = strong resistance
🔻 Below neckline = bearish continuation risk
