EURUSD ahead of NFPEURUSD is still trading within the range established after Wednesday’s news.
We’re watching for a close above 1,1503, which would confirm a potential buying opportunity.
Today at 1:30 PM (London), the NFP data will be released, which could further impact price action - especially if a reversal is underway.
In case of a decline, the next key support level to watch is around 1,1346.
Trend Analysis
Could this be the end of the bull market? Caution requiredSo the green lines are the tops of the last 2 cycles.
We have wicked up to the top of the line, and got denied.
We have spent a week above the bottom GREEN line, suggesting that we want to hold it.
Weekly closes above the bottom line are an acceptance that the price is right and has movement potential to continue higher.
We can retest 106, hold above - and then see continuation higher. It is possible... but
IF you look at the RSI and compare to 2021, there is BEARISH DIVERGENCE that is clearly defined. This is a leading indicator, and often works out more than not.
We 100% need to get above the top yellow trend line to invalidate the bearish divergence.
Right now, RSI is testing the yellow moving average - this is the point last cycle where everything ended.
If price recovers, then i think we go higher (new ath again).
If Price does not, and RSI falls below the moving average, then i think its likely the bull cycle for btc is over..
BUT, its not all doom and gloom.
The RSI moving average has made a higher low, suggesting that the market is not finished its upwards momentum.
On a more fundamental understanding:
BTC has gone almost straight up from 16k to 121k. Its not healthy.
To get to higher highs, we need real adoption of btc.
I dont think BTC breaks and holds above 130k without some more kind of mainstream adoption.
We have institutional adoption - ETFS allow a constant buying pressure, pension funds have access to BTC now too! (I have a new btc exposed retirement annuity if anyone is keen... just dont think the % allowed is that reasonable at the moment).
Banks are starting to allow custody of BTC, meaning the average joe will be able to buy through their bank...
But i cant pay for my beers with btc, i cant use btc to settle debts with most merchants.
There is still more mainstream adoption to happen...
Countries are not piling into btc to make it a reserve asset in teh way i believe they will in teh future
The market will always move to hurt the most people.
Once everyone who wants to buy btc at the highs is done, then the price 100% will correct...
As btc matures, its volatility will drop. This means that the 80% retraces of the past are unlikely in my opinion.
There are big players wanting to buy for long term, this will make buy orders happen sooner than they have in the past.
As an indicator for the alt market - btc losing major psychological levels will create a risk off environment - aka more alt pain.
I had a look at the BTC.D, and on a quick inspection it looks like it could rise to even as high as 75%...
Which, as btc has a global use case as a store of value makes sense vs alt coins changing the world in the same time span.
If the price of BTC drops, alts will drop harder as they are riskier assets. Making BTC.D increase.
Alts are still close the lows, and they need a risk on environment to gain value.
The whole crypto market has changed compared to the old cycles.
Previously, the BTC believers would make huge money - and then at these peaks sell their btc to either tether and alt tokens.
This insane amount of money we received into the total market cap came from big institutions - blackrock etf etc, governments buying.
These players that made the money cant swop their btc to alt coins. They are locked into an etf where at most they can diversify into other traditional investments.
This is a real risk to total2+ receiving a real return...
But its not over, BTC will survive. We learn what we can to make sound financial decisions in the long term.
Stick with your long term plans. Dont but trash. Manage your risk. Manage your mental, dont be over exposed to risk when at the highs.
The rebound is weak, short orders intervene#XAUUSD
After two consecutive trading days of volatility, gold finally began to fall under pressure near 3335. After breaking through the 3300 mark, the price of gold accelerated its decline, reaching a low of around 3268, and yesterday's daily line closed with a large negative line. 📊
Today's rebound is more likely to be based on the buffering performance of the impact of news. The ATR data also shows that the bullish momentum is slowly weakening in the short term. 🐻After digesting the impact of yesterday's news through rebound during the day, it may fall again in the future.📉
📎The primary focus today is 3305 above, which was also the high point of yesterday's pullback correction. If the gold price rebounds to 3305-3320 and encounters resistance and pressure,📉 you can consider shorting and look towards 3290-3270.🎯
If the short-term gold rebound momentum is strong and breaks through the 3305-3320 resistance area, it will be necessary to stop loss in time. Gold may be expected to touch yesterday's high resistance of 3330-3335, which is the second point to consider shorting during the day.💡
🚀 SELL 3305-3320
🚀 TP 3290-3270

🔍 1. Trend Analysis
Primary Trend: Uptrend (bullish structure)
The price has been respecting a rising parallel channel, marked by:
Ascending support (lower boundary)
Ascending resistance (upper boundary)
Market structure shows:
Higher Highs (HH)
Higher Lows (HL)
✅ This indicates continuation of bullish momentum until structure breaks.
📐 2. Market Structure Elements
Structure Type Label on Chart Price Zone (approx.)
Break of Structure (BOS) BOS (center-left) ~22,950
Higher Low (HL) HL (2x) ~22,700 (1st), ~23,050 (2nd)
Higher High (HH) HH (2x) ~23,150 and ~23,300
Resistance Labelled ~23,300–23,320
Demand Zones Labelled ~22,450–22,700
🔁 Break of Structure (BOS)
The BOS occurred after a prior swing low was broken, followed by a new higher high, confirming a bullish shift.
🧱 3. Support / Resistance Analysis
🔼 Resistance Zone
The price is testing strong resistance around 23,300–23,320
Multiple rejections in this area
Trendline resistance also aligns here
A rejection arrow is drawn, indicating potential bearish reaction
🔽 Support Zone (Immediate)
23,180–23,220: highlighted green box is a local support block

🟩 4. Demand Zones
Zone 1:
22,450–22,600: Strong bullish reaction historically — likely to act as a key demand if a deeper pullback occurs
Zone 2:
22,850–22,950: Validated with prior accumulation & BOS event
🧠 5. Key Observations
Price is at a critical inflection zone:
Testing a resistance zone
At the upper trendline of an ascending channel
A bearish reaction is projected (black arrow)
Possibly targeting the green support zone around 23,180–23,220

Ichimoku Cloud:
Currently price is above the cloud → still bullish
Cloud is thin → potential weakness or upcoming consolidation
⚠️ 6. Trading Bias & Setup Ideas
✅ Bullish Bias (if price holds above ~23,180)
Long entries can be considered on bullish reaction from support
Target: retest of 23,300–23,350 or even breakout continuation
❌ Bearish Bias (if breakdown below support)
Short entry valid below 23,180 with:
TP1: 23,050
TP2: 22,900
A breakdown from the ascending channel would signal trend exhaustion
🔚 Conclusion
Current Price: 23,298.4
Trend: Bullish, but at resistance
Next move: Watch for reaction at resistance and support box below
Bias: Neutral-to-bullish unless the structure breaks below ~23,180
EURUSD – Smart Money Short Setup During NFP Friday | ICT Concept
EURUSD is trading inside a well-defined bearish structure after multiple internal liquidity sweeps during the London and Asia sessions.
As we enter the New York Killzone, price has returned to a bearish OB near the NY Midnight Open, with clear signs of exhaustion.
The pair failed to break above the Thursday OB zone, and the 15M chart shows consecutive MSS and BOS patterns, indicating supply is in control.
🧠 Trade Idea (Execution Plan):
Sell Limit: 1.14183
SL: 1.14422
TP1: 1.13877
TP2: 1.13608
TP3: 1.13351
📌 Confluence:
Bearish OB
NY Midnight Open rejection
MSS on LTF
RSI/Williams %R Overbought
📉 Structure: Bearish
🕒 Session: New York (NFP Volatility Expected)
💡 Context: USD is likely to strengthen after deep retracement into DXY OB, targeting 100.5–100.7
If price invalidates 1.14422 with bullish displacement, setup becomes void.
Patience is key during high-impact news – let Smart Money show their hand.
US30 Faces Pressure Below 44610US30 Overview
Technical Outlook:
US30 is showing bearish momentum while trading below the pivot zone at 44610. As long as the price remains under this level, downside pressure may continue toward 44360, with further support at 44180.
However, a confirmed breakout above 44720 would shift the bias to bullish, opening the path toward 44910 and potentially 45100.
Support Levels: 44480 • 44360 • 44180
Resistance Levels: 44720 • 44910 • 45100
Bias: Bearish below 44610, Bullish above 44720
BTC/USDT Analysis – Bullish Pennant Holds Key to $150,000 TargetBINANCE:BTCUSDT is holding just above $115,000, recovering from a 2.4% dip in the last 24 hours, with one technical setup dominating the conversation: a bullish pennant on the 3-day chart.
The pattern formed after a sharp 25% rally earlier this month, creating a classic pole-and-pennant structure. Multiple breakout attempts have failed so far, with long wicks signaling heavy volatility, but the pattern remains valid as long as the BINANCE:BTCUSDT price stays above the $114,000 support zone.
A confirmed 3-day candle close above $119,700—the top of recent failed breakouts—would likely trigger the next leg higher. A measured move from the pole projects an upside target near $150,000, aligning with long-term bullish expectations.
Supporting this setup, the Fund Flow Ratio has been making lower highs, suggesting fewer coins are heading to exchanges and potential sell pressure is easing. At the same time, Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) on the 3-day chart is forming higher highs, signaling quiet accumulation despite recent price dips.
Until either level breaks, BINANCE:BTCUSDT trades in a pivotal range. Bulls want a clean breakout above $119,700, while a drop below $114,000 would invalidate the pattern and open the door to further downside.
Gold on the edge: Will 3,270 break as Fed pressure builds?Hello traders, what’s your view on XAUUSD?
Yesterday, gold remained under pressure as a series of fresh U.S. economic data reinforced expectations that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates higher for longer. As a result, U.S. Treasury yields surged, the dollar strengthened, and gold came under renewed selling pressure. Currently, XAUUSD is trading around 3,288 USD, down 0.04% on the day.
From a technical standpoint, gold is clearly trading within a well-defined downward-sloping channel, confirming the dominance of bearish momentum. Moreover, both the EMA34 and EMA89 are acting as dynamic resistance levels, repeatedly rejecting any short-term recovery attempts—highlighting the strength of the current downtrend.
If a pullback occurs before the next leg lower, the confluence of resistance and the EMA zone will be crucial to watch. It could offer ideal conditions for potential short setups in line with the trend.
Looking ahead, the next key support lies at 3,270 USD. A break below this level could open the door for a deeper move toward the 32XX area.
What do you think? Will gold continue to drop further?
Good luck and trade safe!

Upside targets: 0.4715 → 0.5936 → 0.7025 in sequence.
🔹 Additional Confirmation: Bullish reversal patterns (e.g., bullish engulfing or pinbar) around 0.25–0.28 would strengthen the bullish outlook.
---
📉 Bearish Scenario:
If the price breaks below the 0.2515 level:
It could trigger a deeper move toward 0.22 – 0.18 support area.
Further breakdown may bring price below the psychological level of 0.15.
🔻 Bearish confirmation if the price gets rejected from the 0.30–0.35 region with strong bearish candles.
---
📊 Pattern Insight:
Potential Double Bottom formation near the golden pocket zone.
A break above the 0.3521 neckline would validate this bullish reversal pattern.
---
🔖 Conclusion:
This zone (0.25–0.28) is a make-or-break area for SEI. A strong reaction from this golden pocket will determine whether SEI is ready to rally further or fall to new lows.

Gold rebound is weak, short below 3315
Gold remains weak, with multiple intraday rebounds failing to maintain momentum. The upper moving average continues to suppress the market, and the short-term market remains dominated by bears. Today, we are following the trend and taking a bearish stance. The key upside level is around 3315. If it reaches this level before the US market opens or if it peaks in the short term, we will short sell. The non-farm payroll data will be released today, and we will consider reversing our direction based on the situation after the data.
Gold prices have once again encountered resistance to their upward trend, and the volatile pattern continues. The gold price trend is trending lower highs, and today's low is expected to be lower than yesterday's. Therefore, our intraday short target could be 3268 or even lower, so it's crucial to seize the right entry point.

XAUUSD Gold Trading Strategy August 1, 2025
Yesterday's trading session, gold prices recovered to the 3315 area and then continued to decrease to the 3281 area. Currently, gold prices are fluctuating quite unpredictably due to the impact of tariff news and investor confidence.
Basic news: The Federal Reserve FED continues to maintain the federal funds benchmark interest rate in the range of 4.25% - 4.50%, in line with policy since 2025. Chairman Powell did not give any signal about the next interest rate cut on September 16 - 17.
Technical analysis: After falling sharply to the 3269 area, gold prices are showing signs of recovery. In the current downtrend channel, there has been a higher bottom than the bottom at H1. We can see that if the bullish pattern at H1 is confirmed, combined with the reversal candlestick appearing at H4, the possibility of gold bouncing back to reach the resistance area of 3330, even 3350 is completely possible. In the weekend trading session, we will wait at the support zones to trade.
Important price zones today: 3280 - 3285 and 3269 - 3274.
Today's trading trend: BUY.
Recommended orders:
Plan 1: BUY XAUUSD zone 3283 - 3285
SL 3280
TP 3288 - 3300 - 3310 - 3330.
Plan 2: BUY XAUSD zone 3269 - 3271
SL 3266
TP 3274 - 3284 - 3300 - 3320.
Wish you a safe, favorable and profitable trading day.🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
GBPUSD Technical BreakdownTrendline Breakout:
Price has decisively broken above a short-term descending trendline, signaling a potential shift in intraday momentum from bearish to bullish.
Support Zone (1.3185 – 1.3195):
This demand area has provided a strong base, with multiple successful rejections confirming buyer interest.
Resistance Levels:
Near-term resistance: 1.3213 (minor breakout level – watch for retest)
Key upside targets: 1.3240 followed by the major supply zone at 1.3275 – 1.3290
📈 Trade Outlook:
Bias: Bullish above 1.3213
Entry Idea: Look for bullish confirmation on a retest of 1.3213 as support
Targets:
TP1: 1.3240
TP2: 1.3275 – 1.3290
Invalidation: A sustained move below 1.3185 would invalidate the setup and reopen downside risk.
EUR/USD Technical OutlookEUR/USD is currently trading within a Descending Triangle formation. At present, the pair shows a higher probability of an upside breakout from this structure. A confirmed break above the immediate resistance zone at 1.1428 – 1.1430 could accelerate bullish momentum, opening the way toward the next key resistance level at 1.1485.
On the other hand, if the pair fails to sustain above the triangle and breaks to the downside, price may extend losses toward the 1.1375 – 1.1360 support area. From this zone, a potential corrective rebound could occur before the broader bearish trend resumes.
Overall, short-term direction hinges on the breakout of the descending triangle, with 1.1428 – 1.1430 as the critical level to watch for bulls, and 1.1375 – 1.1360 for bears. FOREXCOM:EURUSD
