World gold prices were under pressure last week from USDWorld gold prices were under pressure last week when the USD index increased. Recorded at 7:00 a.m. on December 8, the US Dollar Index measuring the fluctuation of the greenback with 6 major currencies was at 106,040 points (up 0.32%). Kitco News's latest survey shows that experts continue to be divided, while individual investors are optimistic about gold prices next week. “I expect gold prices to rise next week, as long as the $2,600/ounce level holds. Three central banks in the G10 group will cut interest rates and the market predicts two banks (the Bank of Canada and the Swiss National Bank) may cut interest rates by 25 basis points" - Marc Chandler - CEO Executive at Bannockburn Global Forex - said. "The downtrend line from the record high in late October will be near $2,680 an ounce on Monday and fall to around $2,660 an ounce by the end of next week," he added. 🔥 TVC:GOLD SELL 2657 - 2659🔥 💵 TP1: 2650 💵 TP2: 2640 💵 TP3: OPEN 🚫 SL: 2670

BITCOIN nothing to stop it now! Can top anywhere inside 250-400kMore than 1 year ago (September 05 2023, see chart below), we published the following Bitcoin (BTCUSD) idea, which very illustratively presented the potential course of the new Bull Cycle: As you can see, BTC managed to trade an entire year rising within this green Arc pattern and always below the Cyclical Pivot trend-line that emerged from the bottom of the 2018 Bear Cycle. We made the last update on this chart last August (20 2024), where we called the end of the 5-month correction since March and the start of the new Phase (final Parabolic Rally) of the Bull Cycle. ** The key hold of the 1W MA50 ** The key for that call was the fact that the 1W MA50 (blue trend-line) held twice during the August sell-off and supported. As you can see, on all of BTC Bull Cycles, the 1W MA50 has been supporting post Halving and never broke until after the Top and the start of the new Bear Cycle. ** Symmetry of pre and post-Having ** Given that historically the Bull Cycle lasts post-Halving almost the time it lasted from the bottom to the Halving, we should expect its top around December 2025 - January 2026 and if it is on the Cyclical Pivot trend-line, then it could be as high as 400k. However, even on a less optimistic scenario where it lasts 1064 days (152 weeks) from the Bottom (not counting FTX crash), like the 2015 - 2017 Bull Cycle, we can expect a peak a little over $200000 on the Cyclical Pivot trend-line. ** The 1W RSI series of Tops ** It is important to notice that the 1W RSI is recovering from the overbought volatility correction, having dropped from a massively overbought 88.50 High (March 04) to a practically bearish 45.00 Low (September 02). As this chart shows, BTC tends to top on levels similar to the first 1W RSI of the Cycle, so there is still a lot of way to go before it tops, especially if it follows the 2015 - 2017 Bull Cycle, which had four almost symmetrical such Tops. But what do you think? Are you also expecting Bitcoin to top anywhere within a $250 - $400k range?

Silver could rise 2k pipsIn my previous analysis of Silver, I highlighted the 31.40 resistance zone, suggesting that the price could reverse from that level and potentially drop below 30. Initially, the price did retreat after touching the 31.40 zone, but it lacked follow-through to the downside. As of now, Silver has returned to this key resistance area. Recent price action resembles a "build-up" pattern, with the market steadily pressing against this resistance. A decisive break above 31.40 would also activate a double-bottom pattern visible on the daily chart. Based on the measured target for this pattern, Silver could gain as much as 2,000 pips in the days ahead.

Lingrid | GOLD Weekly PRICE ACTION OutlookOANDA:XAUUSD market continues to consolidate within the range established last week. Despite the release of high-impact news, the market reacted poorly. The current price action indicates a market structure shows lower lows and lower highs giving a slightly bearish sentiment. Even though on the daily timeframe, it seems the market is forming a triangle pattern which is consolidation pattern. I anticipate that the market may remain in this consolidation phase throughout December, as it is common for markets to cool down during this month. On the weekly timeframe, we observe a small range, with liquidity present both above and below. In the long term a breakout above or below this range could lead to two potential scenarios for forming an ABCD pattern. However, I believe the market may drop below the support level of 2535, as the bullish momentum from this zone has not been sufficient to push prices above 2700. This could lead to a dip below that level in order to gather bullish momentum for a subsequent move higher towards an all-time high. However, all things considered, I believe this market will continue to trade within a narrow range. We will need to remain responsive to market movements as the situation unfolds. Traders, if you liked this idea or if you have your own opinion about it, write in the comments. I will be glad 👩‍💻

EURUSD Crucial test on the 4H MA200. Bullish if broken.The EURUSD pair has been trading within a Bearish Megaphone since the September 30 High, which is technically the Bearish Leg of the long-term Channel Down pattern, which we saw on our previous analysis. Having found support on the 4H MA50 (blue trend-line), the pair appears to be attempting another test on the 4H MA200 (orange trend-line), which rejected the last Lower High (November 05) and has been intact since October 01, making it practically the basic long-term Resistance. As a result, if the 4H MA200 breaks, the top (Lower Highs trend-line) of the Bearish Megaphone should follow too, which will cause a technical medium-term break-out. Our Target is the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level at 1.08765. You may use the Higher Lows trend-line as an additional tool to determine if the break-out will be successful as last time (November 05) the failed to hold and caused the new Bearish Low of the Megaphone. Similar analogy with the 4H RSI Higher Lows trend-line. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

XAUUSDOver the past week, spot gold prices (XAU/USD) have shown little significant movement, continuing to trade sideways within the narrow range of 2613 to 2656. Market sentiment has weakened following U.S. President Donald Trump's threats to impose tariffs on certain countries. Despite the Nonfarm Payrolls report bolstering the U.S. dollar, investor sentiment remains cautious, with focus shifting to the Federal Reserve's potential interest rate cut on December 19. Interestingly, the dollar's upward momentum mirrors gold's movements, reflecting a unique dynamic in the current market environment. Technical Analysis On the H4 timeframe, gold prices remain trapped in a sideways channel. The EMA 34 and EMA 89 lines are moving in parallel and remain close together, indicating that the price is likely to continue ranging within this zone in the short term. This week, the release of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) report is a critical event that could act as a catalyst for breaking out of this sideways pattern. If the price breaks out, gold could either rally or fall further to key support levels at 2593-2595 and potentially deeper to 2540-2545. Key Levels to Watch BUY : 2610 - 2615 ; 2592 - 2594 SELL: 2660 - 2665 ; 2680 - 2685 Specific Trade Strategy XAU/USD SELL Zone: 2654 - 2656 Stop Loss (SL): 2659 Take Profit (TP): 2652 - 2649 Given the current sideways trend, it is advisable to wait patiently for prices to reach clearly defined support or resistance zones to maximize the risk-reward ratio. Additionally, closely monitoring this week’s CPI release will help refine strategies as the market reacts to new data. Wishing everyone a productive and successful trading day!

Give market more timeMorning folks, Just we've stopped talking about downside reaction on 102K target - it immediately has happened. As we're going slowly to Xmas time, managers and investors start thinking about holidays and payouts. So, activity on the market will slow. Second is BTC is overbought on monthly chart and completed major target. Such a combination tells that it should be either down or sideways action in nearest time. Since monthly is very big time frame, reaction might be extended in time. So, we just need to do market time to express this reaction. It now stands in release stage. So, the first thing - we should not hurry up with a new position, no matter in what direction. Do you see something interesting here, on 4H chart? That's it and I see nothing. Second is - we should wait for clear patterns without any worry that we will miss the chance. Patterns should be extended and well recognisable, such as H&S on daily for example: Or something of this kind. So, be patient.

Lingrid | EURUSD High-Probability Shorting OpportunityThe price perfectly fulfilled my last idea. It hit the target. FX:EURUSD is currently moving sideways following a significant bearish downturn in autumn. I believe the market will remain in this consolidation zone for a while, as it typically consolidates after such substantial movements. However, if the price retests the channel boundary and rebounds from it, there is a greater likelihood that it will move down, from the resisatnce zone and channel border within the major bearsih trend. My goal is support zone around 1.04300 Traders, if you liked this idea or if you have your own opinion about it, write in the comments. I will be glad 👩‍💻

XAUUSD consolidating awaiting the bullish break-out.Gold (XAUUSD) has been trading within a Channel Up pattern, with its most recent Higher Low being priced on the 1D MA100 (green trend-line). Since November 25, it has been stuck in range within the 1D MA100 and the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line). As pre the RSI, this is a consolidation before the bullish break-out that will confirm the new Bullish Leg. A similar RSI consolidation around its MA trend-line was last seen during Gold's last Higher Low formation (June 07 - 27). The break-outs Target was Resistance 1, so that is our Target again (2790). If however for any reason the price closes a 1D candle below the 1D MA100, we will be quick to take the small loss and on the counter go short, targeting the 1D MA200 (orange trend-line) at 2500. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

WTI recovered slightly, the outlook tilted to the downsideWTI TVC:USOIL increased slightly in the Asian trading session on Monday (December 9), trading around 67.50 USD/barrel. Oil prices fell sharply last Friday, closing near their lowest level, mainly due to expected declines in global demand. However, expectations that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates in December increased following the release of US nonfarm data. According to CME Group's FedWatch, federal funds rate futures trading points to the possibility of a 25 basis point rate cut by the Federal Reserve. point in December was nearly 90%, which will provide some support for oil prices. Currently, uncertainty about the geopolitical situation increased again at the weekend, making the medium-term recovery of oil prices still not optimistic. In the short term, crude oil traders need to continue to observe whether the pressure brought about by the geopolitical situation on the supply side will support oil prices to continue to recover. Essentially, this week will continue to focus on changes in inventory data and whether demand-side pressures ease. This week, the financial market in general and the crude oil and WTI crude oil trading market in particular will focus on US CPI data. On the daily chart, WTI TVC:USOIL although it recovered slightly in the opening Asian trading session today (December 9), it still has all the technical factors supporting bearish expectations. With the long-term trend being noticed by the price channel followed by the short-term price channel, it has both a long-term and short-term trend of decreasing prices. On the other hand, WTI crude oil is also under main pressure from EMA21 along with the 0.236% Fibonacci retracement level. In the short term, if WTI crude oil is sold below 65.28USD, there will be a prospect for a new downtrend to open, and the technical point of 68.34USD is the closest resistance currently. The relative strength index also maintained price activity below the 50 level, which should be considered a negative signal for WTI crude oil technically. During the day, the technical outlook for WTI crude oil on the daily chart leans bearish with notable points listed below. Support: 66.44 – 65.28USD Resistance: 68.34 – 69.51USD

Ending a sideway week, pay attention to CPI dataDuring the Asian trading session on Monday (December 9), OANDA:XAUUSD Spot delivery rose significantly then fell back, with gold prices hitting an intraday high of $2,650.62/ounce on the Asian market. Gold prices have now dropped and are trading at 2,636 USD/ounce. Bloomberg reported that China's central bank increased its gold reserves for the first time in seven months and that the rapid collapse of the Syrian government further undermined stability in the Middle East. These two factors boosted gold prices on Monday but of course it only had a very short-term impact. The People's Bank of China released data on December 7 showing that China's gold reserves at the end of November 2024 were 72.96 million ounces and at the end of October were 72.8 million ounces. As of April this year, China's central bank had increased its gold reserves for 18 consecutive months, helping support rising gold prices. However, the Chinese central bank's purchases (about 5 tons) are relatively small compared to monthly purchases since the beginning of this year. Traders watched developments in Syria over the weekend after President Bashar al-Assad fled as rebels took control of the capital Damascus. The United States struck dozens of Islamic State targets in central Syria on Sunday, as President Joe Biden warned that Assad's fall could lead to a resurgence of Islamic extremism. Analysis of technical prospects for OANDA:XAUUSD Although gold has had a week of stable price fluctuations with mostly sideways accumulation, in general on the daily chart it still moves with the main trend leaning towards the possibility of price decline. With the main trend being noticed by price channel and pressure from EMA21 along with the 0.50% Fibonacci retracement level and horizontal resistance of 2,644USD in the short term. On the other hand, the relative strength index (RSI) is moving sideways below the 50 level, which can be considered a negative signal for gold technically. In the near term, if gold takes its price action below the 0.618% Fibonacci retracement level, it could fall a bit further to $2,606 – $2,600 in the short term. Additionally, a new bearish cycle is likely to be opened once the $2,600 raw price level is broken below, confirmed by price activity below the 0.786% Fibonacci level followed by a target of around $2,538. As long as gold remains within the price channel, below the EMA21 and below the 0.50% Fibonacci retracement, it remains bearish on the daily chart, and the highlights are listed below.

Mastering The Timing Of Trade Exits In Trading Most newbie traders tend to focus on the entry point of a trade, believing that as long as they initiate a position correctly, they can manage their way to a profit later. They often think, “It’s okay if I earn a little; I can always close the trade once the price moves in my favor.” Unfortunately, this mindset often leads to disappointing outcomes. Traders may find themselves either underwhelmed by their gains due to greed—thinking, “Just a little longer, and I’ll secure my profits”—or missing the exit altogether, resulting in a break-even scenario. The situation becomes even trickier when prices move against the trader. Many cling to the hope of a miraculous turnaround, refusing to acknowledge their losses, and instead, they adjust their stop-loss orders, convinced that the market must eventually rebound. This often leads to further losses as they watch their deposits dwindle. To avoid these pitfalls, it's crucial to understand when to close a trade for maximum benefit, as explored in this post. 📍 Strategic Approaches to Closing Trades Closing a trade effectively requires timing it neither too early nor too late. Premature exits can lead to missed opportunities for profit, while waiting too long can result in significant losses. 📍 When to Close Trades? • Identifying Reversal Patterns: Recognizing patterns that indicate a reversal is essential. For instance, during an uptrend, buyers eventually taper off because prices become too high. Those who bought at the onset may begin selling, and if a pinbar forms followed by a bearish engulfing model, this is a clear signal to close before a downturn. • Combining Signals from Indicators: Utilize multiple indicators to gauge the market trend. If trend indicators show a downturn and oscillators indicate overbought conditions, it may be time to close a long position. Patterns and signals should work in concert for the best results. • Following Risk Management Strategies: Tailor your exit strategy to your risk management plan. Strategies could include setting a take-profit level at 50-60% of daily volatility or maintaining a risk-to-reward ratio of 1:3. • Using Risk Management Calculations: This involves observing the pip value and the 1.0-2.0% rule. For example, if your account has a balance of $1,000, limit your loss on any trade to $100 based on the volume of the trade. Accordingly, your take profit should be 2%-3% or more. • Monitoring Candlestick Patterns: A shift in the strength of candlestick bodies can indicate a forthcoming reversal. If you see a consistent decline in candlestick sizes during a price breakout, this can be a cue for an imminent trend shift. • Paying Attention to Key Levels: Many traders place pending orders around key support and resistance levels. Understanding that price may not reach these levels can inform your take-profit and stop-loss placement. • Before Major News Releases: Anticipate how significant news might impact the market. Though there may be statistical predictions, volatility can be unpredictable. Closing trades in advance can help manage unexpected market movements. • At the End of Trading Cycles: Prior to weekends or before the day ends, consider closing positions. This is crucial as weekend events can dramatically shift prices, and exposure over multiple days can incur costs, akin to interest on leverage. • Rebalancing Investments: In the stock market, periodically analyze portfolio performance, selling off underperforming assets to maintain profitability. This concept can also apply to trading, helping to recalibrate your positions for better outcomes. 📍 Conclusion Understanding the timing of closing trades is critical for any trader. By applying these strategies and learning from past experience, you can better navigate the complexities of trading and improve your overall profitability.

GBP/USD → Breaks Out, Eyes New Trend Target Around 1.300Hello everyone, Ben here! The GBP/USD pair has found an opportunity to recover as a breakout from the previous parallel channel around the 1.271 region takes shape amid the dollar's ongoing correction. Key levels of interest are now set around the 1.300 area, with market sentiment cautiously optimistic. A notable test of the intermediate low near the 1.248 mark was followed by an impressive reversal pattern, suggesting a bullish shift in momentum. Theoretically, the outlook leans toward further upside. However, the bigger question remains: How sustainable is this rally? The answer primarily lies in the trajectory of the U.S. dollar. According to the CME FedWatch tool, the market is currently pricing in a 71.8% probability that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates by 25 basis points in December. This scenario implies increased downside pressure on the USD, potentially opening the door for a moderate recovery in other currencies, including the pound. From a technical perspective, the channel breakout provides a promising bullish signal, potentially setting the stage for a stronger upward move. However, traders appear cautious, waiting for further confirmation. If a false breakout above resistance occurs and the price falls below 1.271, a move back toward 1.240 could be on the horizon. For now, though, the mid-term outlook hints at a gradual climb from 1.275 to the psychological level of 1.300, supported by positive technical signals. What are your thoughts on the current dynamics of GBP/USD? Share your insights, questions, or observations—let’s analyze this fascinating setup together!

GOLD MARKET ANALYSIS AND COMMENTARY - [Dec 09 - Dec 13]Last week, international OANDA:XAUUSD almost went sideways in a range from 2,613 - 2,657 USD/oz. The US economy created 227,000 jobs in November, slightly surpassing economists' forecasts. At the same time, wages increased faster than expected. However, the unemployment rate increased again to 4.2%. However, these data show that the US labor market has been tending to recover, creating momentum for the FED to consider delaying interest rate cuts in the context of higher inflation, especially is when Mr. Trump is about to take office as President of the United States. Thus, there may not be much room for gold prices to increase because the FED cuts interest rates. Therefore, gold prices will need additional catalysts from geopolitical factors, central banks increasing gold purchases, etc. Short-term gold prices in general and next week's gold prices in particular will still be in a state of tension between concerns about escalating geopolitical tensions and Mr. Trump's strong tariff measures, causing US Treasury bond yields to increase. , creating strength for the USD and limiting the rise in gold prices. 📌Technically, on the H4 chart, we can see that the moving average ema89 is moving sideways, the gold price continues to accumulate sideways in a narrow range. Accordingly, the resistance level to pay attention to is around the 2720 mark, the support level to pay attention to is around the 2535 mark.

One such asset is #PONKE. I always look for meme coins like #PONKE with low market caps and modest prices. For instance, #PONKE has a market cap of approximately $300 million, with its current price sitting at $0.56. This indicates that the coin is still in its growth phase and holds potential for further price increases. Targets: 1 - $1.02648 2 - $1.24404 3 - $1.48259 4 - $2.07540 DYOR.

EUR/USD moving towards 1.02!As of December 8, 2024, the EUR/USD exchange rate has shown significant volatility, influenced by mixed economic data and central bank monetary policies. Recently, the exchange rate hit multi-year lows, bottoming out at 1.0332 on November 22, followed by a rebound that brought the pair to fluctuate around 1.0570. The Dollar Index (DXY) declined after initial jobless claims rose to 224,000 in the week ending November 30, compared to 215,000 in the previous week. However, the Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index for December showed an improvement, indicating increased consumer confidence in the U.S. economy. The Eurozone economy has shown signs of slowing, with Germany’s manufacturing PMI declining and a contraction in France's services sector activity. This data highlights economic weakness that could influence future decisions by the European Central Bank (ECB). The market currently sees a 70% probability of a 25 basis-point rate cut by the Fed in its December meeting. Historically, December has been a positive month for EUR/USD, with an average return of 1.23% over the past 50 years. However, current economic conditions and geopolitical uncertainties could limit this seasonal trend.

XRP 4H. Preparing for a Breakout. 12/08/24Ripple is currently trading sideways, and this consolidation phase is likely to continue for some time. Let me share some insights with you: indicators in technical analysis provide various insights into the market's condition, such as whether it is overheated or oversold. When these indicators deviate significantly from their normal levels (e.g., overbought or oversold conditions), they may generate false signals. Sideways movement helps "reset" these indicators to more normal levels, which is exactly what’s happening now. During a sideways phase, traders buying and selling the asset frequently rotate, preventing significant price movements. This is crucial for analysis, as it may indicate the market is preparing for the next significant move, such as a trend. In summary, periods of no clear trend are essential for the market to allow indicators to normalize and trader rotations to occur, creating the conditions for the next price movements. So, hold and wait. Forecasted movement is shown on the chart. DYOR.

PEPE. NEW GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES. 12/04/24PEPE is now available for trading on major cryptocurrency exchanges such as Robinhood, Coinbase, and Upbit, with a pair to the Korean Won (KRW). This is a significant milestone as these large platforms provide PEPE with broader audience access and increased capital flow. Given that PEPE has achieved notable positioning on centralized exchanges (CEX), it is reasonable to anticipate further growth in both value and popularity, especially if Bitcoin continues its upward trajectory, surpassing $100,000, and the cryptocurrency market experiences a bullish cycle. In my opinion, PEPE has the potential to become as prominent and investable as other meme-based cryptocurrencies like DOGE and SHIB. Its viral appeal and meme-driven nature could act as catalysts for accelerated growth. I expect PEPE to surpass SHIB in market capitalization during this cycle, marking a pivotal moment in its development. Furthermore, PEPE could emerge as a competitor to DOGE, intensifying the rivalry among meme cryptocurrencies. Entry range is highlighted on the chart. DYOR.
