Gold Meets Resistance in the Mid $1800'sGold has found support exactly at $1836, one of our levels. We noted in previous reports that gold should find support at $1836 or $1826. From here we saw a pivot back to relative highs in the mid $1800's. Recall that we have a dense cluster of levels in the mid $1800's at $1857, $1857 and $1865. These align with relative lows from early May, and are currently acting as a barrier to higher prices. The Kovach OBV is tapering up slightly, but we will need more momentum to hit $1876, our next target. If we reject current levels, $1836 and $1826 should provide support.
Safehaven
Bonds Test Higher LevelsBonds have edged up higher, with ZN hitting our target of 121'00. This is a strong psychological and technical level. We are seeing a bit of a divergence between the price action and the Kovach OBV so unless more momentum comes thorugh, anticipate a dip or some ranging between 120'14 and 121'00. If we dip further, 119'23 should provide support. If we are able to break out further, then we have a fairly wide vacuum zone to the next level and target at 121'28.
Gold H4 - Long Risk Signal Gold H4
Played out exactly as expected after posting yesterdays analysis, would have preferred to see a larger breakout, however, with the DXY break and bullish gold sentiment, I feel this is what we could see today.
Eventual targets of $1900/oz. One step at a time, one high at a time...
Gold (XAUUSD): Bulls Love KaratsAs continuation of my previous posts for Gold, this micro wavemap seems to indicate the Gold is due for sideways movement for the next week possibly. 'Sideways' is never truly 100% sideways however.
The unappealing, minimal upside producing drag should be a clear sign to investors that Gold is losing is steam in this region.
As one can see in my previous post, I believe that after this anticipated fractal pattern plays out, Gold will return to $1800, maybe a few bucks lower.
Surf carefully and with precaution if using this itinerary as nothing is ever guaranteed until it happens.
At all costs, this wavemap should be considered invalid with a break below the red line.
Hypothetically, this could/should be used as a Stop Loss level.
Happy Surfing!
Gold Recovers the $1800'sGold has found support from the upper $1700's, and made a run for the mid $1800's. We smashed through the upper bound of a previous value area at $1815, then passed through several levels after that to reach $1851, which we identified in these reports as a target. We expected resistance here, since this level is a relative low from earlier in May. We are indeed seeing resistance here confirmed by a red triangle on the KRI. If we are able to break through, then we will see resistance from several technical levels up to $1876, then there is a vacuum zone to $1895. If we fall from here, $1836 and $1826 should provide support with $1815 a likely floor for now.
Bonds Pick UpBonds have found support and made a run for higher levels. The ten year dipped 119'23 into the 118's, finding support just above our level at 118'04. We then saw a rebound to 120'14, which we have been identifying as the next target after 119'23. It will take some momentum to break this level however, since this is a relative high from back in April. We are already seeing steep resistance here confirmed by a red triangle on the KRI. The Kovach OBV is gradually trending up, but is a oscillating with the dips, suggesting we need to see more momentum to come through to sustain the rally. If we selloff further, then we should see support at 119'01 then 118'04.
Will GOLD behave differently this time?
Anyone, even those who have never invested, will tell you that gold is a safe haven. Especially when the market is pouring blood.
Unfortunately, for more than two months now, gold has been falling, despite the fact that the stock market and global indices are showing bearish sentiment. This is mainly due to the change in monetary policy in the U.S. – the Fed has started raising interest rates.
How long can this last?
Personally, I think gold is slowly approaching the end of its declines, because the data are not so favorable to the dollar after the first rate hikes.
Inflation is advancing; indices and large companies are trading lower and lower; more and more talk of recession; less and less confidence in what Fed members are saying.
And even if interest rates continue to rise, gold, in my opinion, will at worst be in a long-term consolidation, and at best the price will aim towards $3,000/oz.
Technically, the price stopped at the quarterly tenkan, monthly kijun and additionally the weekly cloud.
The first resistence are the D1 kijun – price: 1895 – followed by the W1 kijun – price: 1915.
If the price starts to seriously bounce from the above levels, the long-term consolidation scenario may start to materialize. Definite breakthrough of these resistances, is a clear signal for growths.
In case of long-term increases, the stopping levels are determined by the N waves seen above.
Gold Returns to a Value AreaGold has rejected $1836, and has made its back down to the value area we identified earlier. Recall that $1795 to $1815 was a range held by gold in the past. We suggested that if it did not have the strength to break out into the upper $1800's or the $1900's, it was likely to return to this range. After rejecting $1836, we fell straight through $1826, and broke through $1815, currnetly finding support somewhere in the middle of our expected range. We should have further support from $1795, but if not, there will be further support in the $1780's. We anticipate $1851 to hold as a ceiling if we catch another burst of momentum.
Gold Reaches Our Target Value AreaAs anticipated Friday, Gold fell through support at $1815, and fell through the vacuum zone to $1795. We actually dipped a bit further, to test support in the $1780's before equilibrating back at $1795. We were confident that this would happen since the range between $1795 to $1815 was a previous value area respected last year. However the Kovach OBV is still very bearish, so be advised that we may dip into the $1780's once again.
Inflation is high, Why gold price falling?As traders, of course.. We know that when inflation is too high, safe haven prices such as gold will soar. But that only applies before 2009. Before bitcoin was launched for the first time.
Not many traders know, that market participants such as banks, big institutions, fund managers, and big companies trust bitcoin as a safe-haven, which actually competes with gold. When inflation is too high, market participants will move their money between bitcoin and gold.
So this is one of the reasons why gold falls when inflation is too high. We can clearly see from the short-term chart above, that gold is bearish but bitcoin is bullish, and vice versa, the unidirectional correlation between bitcoin and gold. However, when the USD is optimistic about strengthening, both will be equally bearish. It can be concluded that both are the same as hedging asset. Also, we can use COT data from CFTC and LME to know gold and crypto sentiment and correlation. Coinbase and JPMorgan can also be considered. But I'll discuss this separately in the next explanation.
Hopefully this can help anyone, so that it can be considered for trading in gold and bitcoin.
Practicing how to understand market behavior is much better than just understanding.
Gold Prepares For Yet Another All-Time HighBased on continued analysis of Gold's price structure and wave count, it seems that XAU is preparing for a massive pump above recent highs. I suspect that this ATH will not hold its weight and send investors scrambling soon after.
Join me on the waves for continued analysis.
Can Gold Maintain $1800??Gold has smashd through lowe levels, but found support exactly where we identified yesterday at $1815. Notice that $1815 is the last major level in the $1800's, and there is a nice value area below from a few months prior between $1795 and $1815. If we break down further, it is highly likely that we will seek value there again. The Kovach OBV has dropped off dramatically, but appears to be leveling off. If we see a relief rally, then $1836 or $1851 are reasonable targets.
Bonds Benefit from Risk-On OutflowsBonds have picked up, breaking through several of our upside levels. We set a target of 119'23, and that is exactly the level we've reached. We are seeing signs of resistance here from several red triangles on the KRI. The Kovach OBV has picked up however, but it is doubtful momentum will take us much further, given the market conditions. If we are able to break out again, then we should see resistance at 120'14 and 121'00, who relative highs. From below we will have support from 119'01 and 118'04.

Gold Breaks Through SupportAs predicted yesterday, gold fell to 1836. We predicted that 1851 would hold as a lower bound, but if broken, 1836 was the next target. Gold appeared to find support at 1851, but the selloff resumed. We do appear to be witnessing a pivot from 1836 with 1851 currently providing resistance. If we are able to break through, then we can reestablish the range between 1851 and 1905. If not, 1826 is the next target if 1836 does not hold.
GOLD/USD Daily TA Neutral BearishXAU/USD Daily neutral with a bearish bias. *Cup and Handle formation from August 2011 still valid + recent downturn can be attributed to a strong dollar (move to treasuries) but overarching theme of geopolitical uncertainty and inflation still control the narrative thus far*. Recommended ratio 40% gold, 60% cash. Price is currently testing the 200 MA at $1838 as support and is still technically testing the uptrend line from August 2018 at ~$1870 as support as well. Volume (according to CME data) is moderately high and on track to favor sellers for three consecutive sessions as it is at a critical support. Parabolic SAR flips bullish at $1895, this margin is mildly bullish. RSI is currently testing the uptrend line from April 2013 at 32 as support (for the first time since August 2021) after being rejected by 39.34 resistance. Stochastic reverted to a bearish crossover after being rejected by 21.78 resistance and is currently trending down at 3.50 as it approaches a retest of max bottom. MACD remains bearish and is slightly trending down at -24 as it tests -19.72 support. ADX is slightly trending up at 21 as Price continues to fall, this is mildly bearish. If Price is able to defend support at the 200 MA ($1838) then the next likely target is a retest of $1910 resistance (after reclaiming the uptrend line from August 2018 at ~$1870). However, if Price breaks down here, the next likely target is a retest of $1702 support which would invalidate the Cup and Handle formation. Mental Stop Loss: (two consecutive closes above) $1910.
USDCAD: Greenback Ready To Head Higher Towards 1.33500 USDCAD broke the major resistance on the weekly & monthly timeframe signaling that it is ready to head higher towards the next high present at 1.33500. With the DXY also likely to head higher, this particular pair has been quite resilient in heading higher due to the Lonnie being supported by higher OIL prices. However a slow move upwards is supported by the fundamental factors which are in the favor of the USD.
Therefore this pair might keep climbing steadily until it meets its next resistance at 1.33500.
This is just my opinion on this pair and its current outlook. the trade criteria are all met and shown on the main chart. Trade carefully using ideal risk to reward ratio. Anyways shall the price retrace to the desired support, i shall make a new post on the trade details. cheers
Gold Tests the Lows of the RangeGold tested lows again at $1851, exactly as we discussed. Recall that we anticipated it would fall to this exact level yesterday, here in these reports, as it was likely to feel out the new range it is establishing. We made a run for higher levels, but $1905 provided prohibitive resistance and we sought lows again subsequently. We are getting support from $1851, and if we see a bounce, we may feel out the range again, with $1876 a likely intermediary target. If we break down, there is a vacuum zone to $1836.
Gold Establishes a RangeWe have seen a lot of volatility in gold this month. It fell from $1917 down to support at $1851, from which we saw a pivot and subsequent run back to $1917. however, momentum petered out at $1905, the level below and we retraced almost the entire range. We are currently seeing suport at $1865, confirmed by a green triangle on the KRI. The Kovach OBV has oscillated with the volatility and seems to be bottoming out at the moment. From here we should remain range bound between $1851 and and $1917, and perhaps volatility will consolidate further. Watch for gold to establish value between $1865 and $1895.
The Bond Selloff ResumesAs anticipated the bond rout continues. We saw a brief relief rally after the FOMC, as the hikes were largely priced in. However, 119'01 provided prohibitive resistance, and ZN immediately rejected it. We found brief support at 118'04, but have broken through this level, and are currently clinging onto 118'00 by a thread. The next target is the level below at 117'19. The Kovach OBV is extremely oversold, so watch for a relief rally, which could test 119'01 again.
Gold Finds SupportGold has found some support off 1851, as anticipated. After collapsing from the 1900's, we were due for a relief rally. Yesterday, we predicted a relief rally to 1876, and that is exactly what happened. However, we are seeing resistance at 1876, confirmed by red triangles on the KRI. The Kovach OBV has picked up slightly with the pivot, but has quickly leveled off, suggesting we need more follow through to attain higher levels. If so, there is a vacuum zone to 1895. If we fail, then 1851 is should continue to provide support, but after that there is a vacuum zone to 1836.
Gold Breaks Down FurtherGold has broken through 1876 and smashed through several levels below, finally finding support at 1851. The selloff resumed after a brief pivot of 1876 took us back to test 1917, where resistance proved prohibitive. The selloff then continued and the Kovach OBV is registering extreme bearish conditions. Though we are seeing support at 1851 confirmed by two green triangles on the KRI, we are not seeing any sort of buy back just yet, which suggests we may press even lower. If so, there is a vacuum zone below to 1836. The Kovach OBV is very oversold at this point so watch for a relief rally which could take us back to 1876, if not higher.
