What is next for the gold prices? Spot Gold Hits Record High Near $3245 - What is Next for Gold Prices? Hitting over $3245 XAUUSD is a significant milestone! Gold is typically viewed as a safe-haven investment during uncertain times, so it is no surprise that the ongoing US-China trade tensions are driving prices up. When markets become unstable, investors tend to gravitate toward gold to safeguard their wealth, especially during periods of high volatility like trade wars. Over the past five trading sessions, gold prices have surged by approximately $290, climbing from a range of $2956 to $3245 per ounce. This remarkable increase is primarily attributed to escalating US-China trade tensions, which have heightened demand for gold as a safe-haven asset. Gold prices have been steadily climbing since mid-December 2024. During the early hours of the US trading session, the June gold futures contract hit approximately $3262.79 per ounce, while spot gold (XAUUSD) prices reached an all-time high of around $3245.36 per ounce. Based on my trading strategy for Spot Gold (XAUUSD) During the morning session in the US, Gold spot (XAUUSD) hit approximately $3245.36 range per ounce. This price could present a prime selling opportunity, as it aligns with common profit-taking patterns. Traders might opt to lock in profits at this level, potentially triggering market corrections. If spot gold (XAUUSD) prices begin to decline, they could move toward today’s low of around $3175.78 per ounce. A continued drop might see prices fall to yesterday’s low of approximately $3071.03. Should this support level fail to hold, gold could test its 20-day moving average near $3065.15. A further decline beyond that point may open up new selling opportunities, with prices potentially dipping to around $2956.60 per ounce, which corresponds to the weekly low from April 7. Holding Period – Next 3-5 sessions In conclusion with Gold spot (XAUUSD) approaching record highs, this could be an opportune moment for profit-taking. Traders might look to sell to lock in gains, which could trigger a market correction. Nevertheless, it is important to closely monitor market developments to determine the optimal timing for these moves. while gold prices have recently surged to record highs amid ongoing geopolitical tensions, especially the US-China trade conflict, there is potential for a pullback. Key support levels to watch include $3175.78, $3071.03, and the 20-day moving average around $3065.15. If these levels are breached, further downside could bring prices toward the weekly low of $2956.60. Traders should closely monitor price action for signs of either continued momentum or emerging selling opportunities.

Ethereum’s Next Move – What’s the Target? (12H)Before anything else, it’s important to note that Ethereum has reached a significant demand zone where institutional orders have likely been collected. This zone has previously shown strong reactions and is marked as a key level for bullish activity. Looking ahead, price is approaching a fresh and untouched flip zone, which is expected to contain heavy sell orders. A potential rejection from this area is likely, and the type of rejection we get will be crucial in determining Ethereum’s next move. If ETH manages to hold the upper green box (support zone), there’s a strong chance it could target the red resistance box above. A daily candle closing below the invalidation level will invalidate this analysis. For risk management, please don't forget stop loss and capital management Comment if you have any questions Thank You

GBP/USD ANALYSISGBP/USD 15M - As you can see price has traded down and into the Demand Zone we have marked out above, this is after price has cleared and absorbed a level of Supply in the market. This tells me that there is more Demand in the market than there is Supply and price is still showing clear signs of bullish structure with it not breaking any protected lows. This trade is currently running + 17 pips. (+ 0.77%) 0.77RR Based on this I have gone ahead and placed a long position with my SL below the zone I have gone ahead and got involved from and my TP is set at a higher timeframe area of Supply where I feel it may shake price once it trades in. Well done to those of you who jumped in on this trade, if you have any questions with regards to the analysis or the trade itself drop me a message or comment below!

THE KOG REPORT THE KOG REPORT: In last week’s KOG Report we said we would stick with the NFP move and look for price to continue long looking for our target region 3050-55. We were already in the move with the trades protected, however, on open we did get closed at BE only to be able to get a better entry from the undercut low. After the break of the key level and on the flip we managed to then continue with the move upside completing numerous Excalibur targets as well as our bias and red box targets upside. I can’t say that was an easy week, the move was huge and thankfully we managed to stay the right side of it guided by the in-house indi’s and Excalibur. So, what can we expect in the week ahead? Although further upside is likely, we can’t long here as it’s too dangerous after that stretch last week. So let’s see how the market opens and if the Asia session attempts to test that high again. It’s the first level of 3230 that needs to be watched, support here can push us back upside into the above the key level of 3250-55 which is our ideal level for the hunt. If we can stay below that level we could see a RIP and price attempt the correction many traders are looking for in the early part of the week. The lower levels 3220 need to break as well as then the hurdle of 3210 which will make the correction easier. Due to low volume news next week, we could see a lot of ranging in anticipation of some geopolitical news which will bring sudden spurts of volume and the movement that we want to see. 3190 is the key level support and also the pattern test region, traders should keep an eye on this level of support for any RIP’s and potential for upside, so if attacked a bounce around there should be on the cards. It’s simply a red box break and close week this week, monitoring the price action and only looking for the longs if we get pullbacks, otherwise, 1-2 decent short opportunities should be enough for the short week. KOG’s bias of the week: Bearish below 3265 with targets below 3220, 3210. 3197, 3190 and below that 3170 Bullish on break of 3265 with targets above 3276, 3280, 3285 and above that 3292 RED BOXES: Break above 3250 for 3255, 3261, 3269, 3275 and 3290 in extension of the move Break below 3230 for 3220, 3210, 3206, 3195 and 3180 in extension of the move Please do support us by hitting the like button, leaving a comment, and giving us a follow.

OPEC Cuts Oil Demand Forecast While Increasing SupplyOil prices are feeling bearish pressure. OPEC was unable to increase production significantly last year to stabilize prices. High interest rates have kept global economies cool enough. However, starting in May, OPEC will begin unwinding its voluntary production cuts. The timing of this decision is questionable. Tariffs are expected to hit global economies hard, while the Fed is likely to hold rates steady for a few more months. Recession risks in the world’s two largest economies, the U.S. and China are rising. OPEC has acknowledged this trend by lowering its oil demand forecast for 2025 and 2026 by nearly 10%. If summarized: Oil demand is expected to fall 10%, possibly more if the U.S. and/or China enter recession. Trump is expected to boost U.S. drilling, increasing supply. OPEC will start to unwind supply cuts, increasing supply. Brent is likely to remain under bearish pressure throughout the year because of rising supply and falling demand. As long as the current fundamental outlook remains unchanged, upward moves should be viewed as selling opportunities. A downtrend channel has formed since mid-2023, with the lower boundary recently tested. There is now an upward reaction. If this continues toward the 68.25–70.70 zone—previously a demand zone, now a potential supply zone—traders may look for short entry setups, provided this zone holds, with nearby stop-loss levels.

Gold Trade Review – Potential Pop, Drop, then ATH's SetupWe are currently watching a potential pop and drop and potential ATH scenario developing in gold. Price is holding above a key daily level at $3,021.4 , which will serve as the critical pivot area. A sustained move below this level will likely trigger continuation toward the next significant daily level at $2,968.5 for T1, and potentially further into the weekly/daily support zone at $2,953.2 , with an extended target at the daily level of $2,929.0. I would expect that zone to provide support, though there is an untested area lower near the recent lows at $2,893.6. Ideally, I do not want to see price move much beyond our first weekly/daily support zone mentioned above but would lean on the lower level as a last ditch effort to hold the structure. From the current price structure, based on Fridays close there's also potential for a move higher into (#1) $3,058 , which is an untested daily level (approached from below). If this level acts as firm resistance, it could trigger the anticipated drop into the zones outlined above. Keeping an eye on being above or below $3,021.4 will be critical for progression in either direction.
