Gold shock pulls long and short without continuationFrom the daily line, the K-line closed with a hammer-shaped small positive line with a long lower shadow, showing a trend of falling back and oscillating from a high position, which intensified the change in the K-line pattern of the top. The 4-hour level analysis shows that the short-term important suppression of gold is at 3360-3366. In terms of operation strategy, it is still mainly based on shorting if the rebound does not break this suppression level. The important support level of 3260-3268 should be paid attention to below. The middle track of the Bollinger band at the hourly level is near 3322, which can be used as a watershed of strength and weakness. After the gold price falls below the middle track of the Bollinger band, it is likely to go to the lower track of the Bollinger band, and it is more likely to test the oscillation bottom position of 3260. In terms of short-term operation ideas for gold, it is recommended to mainly short on rebounds, and to supplement on pullbacks.
Xauusdanalysis
Gold is short, gold may plummet!As the current price is basically fluctuating within the large range of 3260-3370, the overall trend is fluctuating downward, the high point is constantly moving down, and the low point is tested many times. The more tests are made, the greater the probability of breaking. Therefore, the continuity of the rebound is not strong. In the morning, we stepped back to 3319 and bought more. In the afternoon, we rebounded to 3323 and left the market with a small profit and then went short. It basically maintained a weak consolidation at a low level. This trend means that there will be further declines.
Gold Price in Key Compression Zone: Awaiting BreakoutThe 1-hour chart of XAU/USD (Gold Spot vs US Dollar) shows a clear symmetrical triangle formation, where the price has been compressing between a descending resistance zone (red) and a horizontal support zone (green). Here's a breakdown of the setup:
Support Zone (~3040–3080 USD):
This area has acted as a strong base multiple times, suggesting buyers are stepping in consistently at this level.
Resistance Trendline (~3310–3320 USD):
The price has repeatedly tested this descending resistance line but has failed to break above it so far.
EMA Indicators:
50 EMA (black line): Currently acting as dynamic resistance.
200 EMA (blue line): Price is hovering around it, indicating indecision.
Projected Breakout Scenarios:
Upside Breakout:
If price breaks above the resistance trendline, a sharp rally is projected towards the 3480–3520 USD zone. This move aligns with previous supply levels.
Downside Breakout:
If support fails, we could see a breakdown toward the 3040 USD region, with extended targets near 3080–3040 USD.
Current Bias:
The market is consolidating, and a breakout is imminent. Watch for volume and candle confirmation at either the resistance or support to determine the next major move.

The gold strategy is correct, enter the market at key points.Gold clearly treated the wide range of fluctuations, and the strategy was basically realized! In the real market, I also arranged short orders at 3345 and 35, and took profit at 3313-14! I continued to arrange long orders at 3302, and finally successfully reached the profit target of 3315! The overall harvest was good.
Analysis of gold trend:
On Tuesday (April 29) in the Asian market, spot gold fluctuated in a narrow range and is currently trading at $3337.58/ounce. Gold prices reversed their decline on Monday and rose. Earlier, they fell to around $3268, but then there was a low-absorption buying, and gold prices closed at $3343.91/ounce; the dollar fell across the board on Monday, which also provided support for gold prices. Investors cautiously waited for further news on US trade policies and prepared for a week of intensive economic data, which may initially indicate whether US President Trump's trade war is having an impact.
From a technical perspective, gold prices reversed their decline on Monday and rose. Gold repeatedly tested the 3260-3270 area for support. Gold has formed a multiple bottom structure in the short term, so gold may end its short-term adjustment. This time, gold has already adjusted, and it is unlikely to adjust again. Therefore, as long as it does not break the 3260 low in the near future, gold will rise and there will be room for growth. As for the high point, there are two dividing points, one is the 3337 high point, breaking 3337 is a strong shock, and the other is the 3370 high point, breaking 3370 is absolutely strong, then, the upper space is opened, and then look at 3420-3500.
From the daily chart, the daily line forms three bottoms at 3260, and the daily line closes positively, and the bullish trend is obvious. As long as the daily line is positive, it will not be able to go to the upper track or the previous high is just around the corner. The 4-hour cycle is also absolutely strong after Monday's rise, but now the unilateral rising mode of the Bollinger opening has not yet formed, and the gains and losses of 3370 will be tested here. Therefore, if the bullish long position continues on Tuesday, it must pay attention to whether 3370 breaks. If 3370 breaks, there will be a strong unilateral rising space. If 3370 does not break, it will still be a large range of fluctuations. Then, the only thing to consider during the day is to adjust the long position. Today, the lower support is around 3300-3310, and the upper pressure is around 3350-3360.
Shorting opportunities are coming near 3330 in the US market!
📌 Driving events
Because the easing of US-China trade tensions has weakened gold's safe-haven appeal, while investors are waiting for US economic data to assess the Fed's policy direction. Gold has been in a range recently as the market now waits for details of the first trade agreement, which is expected to be announced this week or next week.
📊Comment analysis
Gold reached a turning point last week, with Trump making some very positive comments, while stagflation risks continued to be excluded, and gold continued to fall. Stagflation pricing has driven gold prices higher, and as the market begins to exclude this risk, it is normal for a correction to occur, especially considering that "long gold" has become one of the most crowded trades.
💰Strategy Package
Short position:
Actively participate around 3330 points, profit target around 3300 points
⭐️ Note: Labaron hopes that traders can properly manage their funds
- Choose the number of lots that matches your funds

Let’s continue to be long on gold and keep winning!Fundamentals:
1. Focus on the performance of US economic data and the dynamics of the Federal Reserve;
Technical aspects:
At present, gold has failed to fall below the key area of 3300 many times during the retracement process, further strengthening the short-term structural support and strengthening the market's recognition of the effectiveness of its structural support. Moreover, gold may still maintain a volatile market before the NFP market. Due to the cautious attitude of the market, it is difficult for a unilateral trend to appear before the NFP market.
Short term trading strategies:
As in the two recently updated trading views, the trading strategy of long gold in the 3310-3300 area is still effective! Looking forward to gold rebounding to 3325 or even higher!
What is gold waiting for? Stuck in the 3300 area⭐️GOLDEN INFORMATION:
Gold price (XAU/USD) fails to build on Monday’s rebound from the key $3,265–$3,260 support zone, encountering renewed selling pressure during the Asian session on Tuesday. Although signals from the US and China remain mixed, investor sentiment remains buoyed by hopes of a potential easing in trade tensions between the world’s two largest economies. Additionally, signs of advancement in tariff negotiations have further bolstered optimism, dampening the appeal of the safe-haven metal.

Golden layout strategy!Gold daily level includes a positive hammer line with a long lower shadow. Gold fluctuates and hovers. There have been four oscillating daily lines, all running below the 3370 line. The probability of continued fluctuation is high. Based on the above analysis, it can be concluded that gold bottomed out and rebounded, and bulls took the initiative. In terms of operation, consider retreating and arranging long orders first, and high shorts as a supplement. Pay attention to the resistance of 3370-3400 US dollars on the top, and the support of 3310-3260 US dollars on the bottom.
Gold shocks pull long and short without continuation!From the daily line, the K-line closed with a hammer-shaped small positive line with a long lower shadow, showing a trend of falling back from a high position, which intensified the change of the top K-line pattern. At present, the gold price is suppressed by the double top of 3370 above and supported by the multiple bottoms of 3260 below. The market outlook mainly focuses on the shock adjustment of this range. The middle track of the Bollinger band at the hourly level is near 3322, which can be used as a watershed of strength and weakness. After the gold price falls below the middle track of the Bollinger band, it is likely to go to the lower track of the Bollinger band, and it is more likely to test the shock bottom position of 3260. In terms of the short-term operation of gold, it is recommended to mainly short on rebounds and supplemented by long on pullbacks. The short-term focus on the upper side is 3329-3335 resistance, and the short-term focus on the lower side is 3265-3260 support.
Don’t be afraid of pullbacks, we can still go long on goldFundamentals:
1. First, pay attention to the dynamics of Trump and the Federal Reserve;
2. Pay attention to whether the geopolitical conflicts escalate, including the situation between India and Pakistan, Russia and Ukraine, and the situation between the United States and Iran.
Technical aspects:
Compared with yesterday, although the bullish momentum is weak, it has not fallen below the support of the 3005-2995 area, and even failed to fall below 3000. In addition, as gold fluctuates and falls, there is a large amount of buying funds entering the market in the short term. In the recent short-term structure, gold has built a very obvious turning point near the 3300 area. Therefore, gold may still rebound to above 3330 before NFP.
Short-term trading strategy:
You can still consider continuing to go long on gold in the 3310-3300 area, TP: 3325-3335
Gold Technicals Signal Range Oscillation, Bearish Play in FocusCurrently, both the bullish and bearish forces in the gold market are fiercely competing within the range of 3260-3370. The hourly chart shows a sideways trend, while the daily chart indicates a struggle around the short-term moving averages. In the early morning, the price of gold dropped to 3305 and then rebounded to 3324. The trend during the European trading session is crucial. If the weakness persists, one may consider shorting on the pullback before the US trading session. The upper resistance is at 3355-3360, and the lower support is at 3280-3275.
Technically, an embryonic head-and-shoulders bottom has formed on the hourly chart (left shoulder at 3280, bottom at 3260, right shoulder at 3265). Whether the neckline at 3370 can be broken will determine the upward trend. A W-bottom pattern is being brewed on the 4-hour chart, and its confirmation depends on whether the double-top resistance at 3370 can be broken. Otherwise, the price of gold will continue to fluctuate within the range of 3370-3260.

Gold moves sideways ahead of US GDP news. What's next?OANDA:XAUUSD Optimism about US trade talks with major partners boosted risk appetite and supported the dollar. The US Treasury released a report that talks with India made good progress, while President Trump softened his rhetoric on China, which also boosted the dollar. Meanwhile, traders are on the sidelines ahead of the release of US first quarter GDP data. If the data is weak, gold as a safe haven asset may rise sharply. Therefore, the gold market remains sensitive to trade news and macro data, especially in the context of market rebalancing at the end of April.
Currently, as part of the current momentum and correction, Quaid expects gold prices to rise from the 0.5-0.7 Fibonacci area. Gold prices may test 3325-3330 in the consolidation range and then resume the correction.
Resistance: 3325, 3350, 3370
Support: 3290, 3270
Traders please wait for the resolution of the tariff dispute and the economic data to be released tomorrow. However, during price consolidation, Quaid expects the price to bounce off the support levels. If the price continues to squeeze towards any boundary, giving priority to the support level, the possibility of breaking out of the consolidation bottom may increase.
Buy gold, gold is expected to rebound to the 3330-3335 zoneFundamentals:
1. First, pay attention to the dynamics of Trump and the Federal Reserve;
2. Pay attention to whether the geopolitical conflicts will escalate, including the situation between India and Pakistan, Russia and Ukraine, and the situation between the United States and Iran.
Technical aspects:
Gold rebounded and tested the area near 3353, then encountered resistance and fell back. During the decline, it stopped falling near 3305, and in the short-term structure, a triple bottom structure and an arc bottom pattern were constructed around the price of "3308-3305-3308", proving that in the 3310-3305 area, there is a large amount of buying funds entering the market in the short term; in addition, before the NFP market, it is difficult for gold to form a unilateral trend, and overall gold is still in a state of shock.
Short-term trading strategy:
It is possible to consider buying gold in batches in the 3315-3305 zone; TP: 3330-33340

However, buying interest is emerging at key support zones, hinting that bulls may not be entirely out of the picture yet.
A clean break above 3,301 could ignite a move toward 3,352 – 3,366 resistance levels.
This compression phase suggests that a larger directional move could be imminent.

4/29 Gold Trading SignalsThe buy orders initiated around 3273 yesterday have already delivered solid profits.
After a slight rally at today’s opening, gold prices have pulled back.
Currently, the candlestick formation shows no clear directional trend, while some short-term technical indicators are pointing downward.
Before any corrective signals appear, we need to closely watch the support near 3306.
As long as this level holds, the short-term bullish momentum still has a chance to continue.
On the news side, today's scheduled data releases are of minor impact.
Focus instead on developments regarding the India-Pakistan situation and US Treasury Secretary Bessent’s press conference.
If geopolitical tensions escalate, gold may break out to new highs.

Gold Ideas - XAUUSD Weekly Outlook | April 28, 2025🧠 Quick Outlook:
Gold remains locked in a corrective range after its aggressive rally to new all-time highs.
Price is currently consolidating between major liquidity zones, preparing for its next big move.
However, growing geopolitical risks — including rising Middle East tensions and potential currency interventions out of Japan — could trigger safe-haven flows, especially during Asia session volatility.
While the high timeframe structure remains bullish above the 3220–3235 pivot,
the immediate tactical focus is on the 3340–3365 zone, where key liquidity battles are unfolding.
🔥 Major Zones to Watch:
Resistance 3380–3395 Major supply and flip zone — strong liquidity cluster
Resistance 3350–3360 Minor local resistance — potential bull trap area
Support 3260–3280 Critical intraday support and liquidity pocket
Support 3220–3235 Last pivot standing to maintain bullish structure
⭐Tactical Focus This Week:
🎯 Will Gold reject or conquer the 3380–3395 stronghold?
🎯 Will 3350–3360 act as a stepping stone or a snare for early buyers?
🎯 Are buyers prepared to defend the 3260–3280 liquidity pocket with real force?
🎯 What happens if 3220 collapses?
Patience and sniper discipline will make the difference this week, as Gold approaches critical decision points and major news.

XAU/USD 29 April 2025 Intraday AnalysisH4 Analysis:
-> Swing: Bullish.
-> Internal: Bullish.
Analysis and bias remains the same as analysis dated 23 April 2025
Price has now printed a bearish CHoCH according to my analysis yesterday.
Price is now trading within an established internal range.
Intraday Expectation:
Price to trade down to either discount of internal 50% EQ, or H4 demand zone before targeting weak internal high priced at 3,500.200.
Note:
With the Federal Reserve's dovish stance and persisting geopolitical uncertainties, heightened volatility in Gold is expected to continue. Traders should proceed with caution and adjust risk management strategies in this high-volatility environment.
Price could also be driven by President Trump's policies, geopolitical moves and economic decisions which are sparking uncertainty.
H4 Chart:
M15 Analysis:
-> Swing: Bullish.
-> Internal: Bearish.
Analysis and Bias remains the same as analysis dated 24 April 2025.
Price printed as per my note yesterday whereby I mentioned that we should be surprised if price printed a bearish iBOS as all HTF's require a pullback.
Price subsequently printed a bearish iBOS which confirms internal structure.
Intraday Expectation:
Price has traded up to just short of premium of internal 50% EQ where we are seeing a reaction. Price could potentially trade further into premium of 50%, or H4/M15 nested supply zone before targeting weak internal low priced at 3,260.190.
Note:
With the Federal Reserve maintaining a dovish stance and ongoing geopolitical tensions, volatility in Gold prices is expected to remain elevated. Traders should exercise caution, adjust risk management strategies, and stay prepared for potential price whipsaws in this high-volatility environment.
Trump's tariff announcement will most likely cause considerably increased volatility and whipsaws.

Gold plunged $36 during Asian trading hours. What's the reason?Spot gold suddenly fell sharply during the Asian session, and the current price of gold is around $3,310/ounce, a plunge of $36 during the day.
In the optimistic market sentiment, the recovery of US dollar demand seems to put downward pressure on gold prices.
Quaid believes that optimism about the possible progress in trade negotiations between the United States and its major trading partners supports risk appetite, boosts the performance of the US dollar against major currency competitors, and gold sellers are trying to regain control.
The Wall Street Journal said that weakening the impact of auto tariffs is the latest concession of Trump's trade policy after market turmoil and fierce lobbying by companies and other countries.
Looking ahead to this trading day, trade headlines and the re-adjustment of positions at the end of the month will play a key role in driving gold prices.
Trading analysis:
From a technical point of view, gold prices are currently trying to break down again after failing to confirm a break below the three-week rising channel on Monday. However, as the 14-day relative strength index is still above the midline, any decline in gold prices may be quickly bought.
During Asian trading hours, gold must close at the rising trend line support of $3,300/oz to confirm a break below the rising channel. Long-term important support for gold prices is in the $3,260/oz area.
If gold prices continue to fall below the above level, a new downward trend towards the $2,975 area will begin.
If buyers defend the above channel support of $3,300/oz, a rebound to the static resistance of $3,370/oz will be inevitable. If gold prices continue to recover, the target will be $3,400/oz, followed by the historical high of $3,500/oz.
The market is currently in a state of sideways fluctuations. I hope Quaid's analysis can help all traders understand the trend of gold in depth.
XAUUSD Gold analysis from a medium- to long-term perspectiveHello everyone. Today, we are here to determine the long-term direction of the XAUUSD pair. Regardless of any revisions, even if there are rollbacks in Trump-era policies or unexpected developments that are currently not even on the agenda, the ultimate objective remains unchanged: to strategically counterbalance China. The core target is clearly China, and the strategy is to shift both production and the trade balance in favor of the United States.
The factors driving gold prices upward are still strongly tied to global uncertainties, supported by ongoing diplomatic and geopolitical tensions. In a period where the U.S. dollar's role as the world’s reserve currency is being questioned, gold diversification has accelerated—particularly through central bank purchases.
From a psychological perspective, especially when viewed through the eyes of retail investors, I always emphasize this: when gold reaches historical highs, the underlying momentum seen in technical analysis continues to support a bullish direction. Therefore, I believe the upward trend is likely to persist.
XAUUSD:Reference for today's trading strategyYesterday, gold opened at $3,331 and trended downward unidirectionally until it rebounded strongly after hitting the key support around $3,260. The upward momentum continued at night, surging to $3,353 and then pulling back slightly, closing at $3,343. This morning, it opened flat at $3,343, quickly came under pressure, and entered a deep correction. Now it's fluctuating narrowly around $3,310 with bulls and bears in a stalemate.
From a comprehensive analysis of technicals and market sentiment, though bulls are active and have the momentum to challenge the $3,370 resistance, due to the upcoming NFP data, market wait-and-see sentiment is strong and volatility has increased notably. Historical data shows gold prices often fluctuate sharply before major economic data releases to digest risks in advance.
Considering the current K-line pattern and volume changes, it's likely that gold will experience a deep correction and retest the $3,260 support before breaking through the $3,370 resistance. This "accumulating strength through correction" can relieve profit-taking pressure and build up momentum for a future breakout.
Given the increased market uncertainties, today's trading strategy suggests being cautiously bullish and strictly controlling risks. Investors should set stop-losses rigorously to guard against sudden sharp fluctuations before the NFP release. Also, avoid aggressive bottom-fishing, closely monitor the market, and wait for price stabilization or clear technical signals before entering the market.
