XAUUSD: Massive Volatility, Weak Support at 3270!Last week was extremely volatile for Gold, with incredible swings that caught many traders off-guard. After reaching a new all-time high at 3500, the price dropped by more than 2000 pips in less than 24 hours! After this crash, the market settled somewhat, and towards the end of the week, Gold established a strong ceiling around 3370 – exactly as we discussed in last week's analysis. The key question now: Is the correction over or is there more downside coming? At the same time, we can clearly observe a floor around 3270, a level that Gold is testing again at the time of writing. Here’s why I believe the correction is not over yet: - Price action remains vulnerable below 3370 resistance. - The support at 3270 looks fragile, with pressure building for a break. - Market volatility is still extremely high, favoring continuation moves. Trading Plan: I am looking to sell rallies above 3300, aiming for a target around 3200. Due to the recent wild volatility, I will adjust my stop losses accordingly, allowing enough room for noise without exposing the position to unnecessary risk.

XAU/USD Elliott Wave Count: Preparing for Final ImpulseXAU/USD appears to be in a textbook 5-wave impulsive structure on the 4H chart, with the market now completing Wave 4 as a classic ABC corrective flat/pennant. The impulsive move from the Wave 2 low has formed clear internal substructures, with Wave 3 exhibiting extended price action, consistent with Elliott Wave guidelines. Currently, price is consolidating in a contracting pattern labeled Wave 4 (A-B-C), which looks to be near completion. Based on wave symmetry and Fibonacci projections, a strong upside move is anticipated once Wave 4 concludes, leading into the final Wave 5 rally. Entry Zone: 3286.875 Target: 3367.440– 3410.210 Stop Loss: Below 3260.190.

Gold fluctuates and the trend is bearish!The rise and fall of gold is not based on technical aspects, but more on fundamentals and big data, as well as the impact of tariffs. Without these influences, we are bearish this week. If the decline of the big C wave continues, the target will be 3230. 3165 is the Fibonacci 61.8 position of the callback and also the previous high point, which is easy to form a rebound. Gold focuses on two major suppressions, one is the hourly suppression around 3300, and the other is 3315 and 3328, both of which are opportunities for air forces. In terms of the short-term operation of gold, it is recommended to short on rebounds and long on callbacks. The short-term focus on the upper side is 3298-3300 resistance, and the short-term focus on the lower side is 3265-3260 support.

Gold technical and fundamental aspects resonate！At present, gold maintains an upward trend of shocks. The short-term support below is the middle track of 3270-3290 and the 30-day moving average. If it pulls back to this range, you can arrange long orders accordingly. The key resistance above is the double top pressure of 3370 and the psychological barrier of 3400. The technical side shows that the right shoulder top pattern is formed near 3370. If it breaks through effectively, it may accelerate the upward exploration. Otherwise, it will face the risk of correction if it encounters resistance. In the near future, we need to be vigilant against the repeated short-term shock pattern of market sentiment. The operation is mainly high-altitude, supplemented by low-long, and avoid chasing up and selling down.

GOLD bulls ready to break higherHere we are looking at the 240/4hr chart. I am seeing price make a push higher from a previously well respected support zone and a possible triangle pattern forming after pushing down from previous highs. Currently we're waiting for bears to push the price down either to the bottom of the triangle pattern, or breaking out to the highs for entries higher. Plan for bears is to sell back into the triangle and in current resistance. Plan here for bulls is to look for entries at a better price breaking this pattern, or into the highs.

Be bold and short goldFundamentals: 1. Still need to pay attention to Trump's attitude towards tariffs; 2. Pay attention to whether the situation between India and Pakistan escalates; 3. At the same time, pay attention to the dynamics of the Federal Reserve, US-Iran negotiations, etc. Trading situation: Our last short position near 3297 happened to hit TP: 3287 during the decline of gold, and easily made a profit of 100pips in short-term trading; After gold fell below 3287, it rose sharply in the short term to around 3335. Although gold rose sharply in the short term, it still did not break away from the wide range of fluctuations. There are still many resistances above. First, it faces the short-term resistance area of ​​3340-3345, and secondly, it faces the resistance area of ​​3355-3365. Therefore, it is difficult for bulls to perform well before conquering this resistance area. There is still a possibility of testing the 3305-3295 zone again; Trading strategy: Short-term trading can still short gold in batches again in the 3325-3335 zone; TP: 3310-3300

Gold prices bottomed out and rebounded, market trend analysis.Analysis of gold trend: From the perspective of market sentiment, interest-free gold as a safe-haven asset has performed strongly this year, with prices soaring by nearly $700 and hitting record highs several times. However, the recent optimistic expectations of easing global economic and trade relations have boosted market risk appetite, and the equity market has generally performed positively. Some funds have flowed out of safe-haven assets such as gold and turned to risky assets, which is also the main psychological factor under pressure on gold prices. If market risk appetite continues to improve, global economic and trade relations further ease, and the US dollar strengthens, gold prices may face greater downward pressure. From a technical point of view, the gold price needs to effectively fall below the $3,265-3,260 range in the short term before a larger correction downward may be confirmed. Once confirmed to fall below, the gold price may quickly fall to the 50% retracement level near $3,225, further pointing to the $3,200 mark. If $3,200 is lost, it will suggest that gold may have peaked in the short term. Gold opened higher in the Asian session on Monday and continued to fall last week after hitting 3336. The idea of ​​the Asian session was to directly bearish at the analysis point of 3277. After hitting the lowest point of 3268, it fluctuated upward. The European session also fell to 3273 and then rebounded. The highest point in the US session just reached 3336 again, a standard bottoming and rebounding trend. Since it is an adjustment structure, let's re-analyze the idea. The gold price fell at 3500 and rebounded at 3260 last Wednesday. The rhythm was volatile. It rebounded above 3260 many times below and did not cross the first rebound high of 3367 above. Today, we mainly focus on the closing price. If it stands firmly at the 3313 line, we will adjust our thinking on Tuesday. On the contrary, it will fall back after encountering resistance at 3336, today's opening high, and go to 3278. On Tuesday, we will continue to look at the idea of ​​​​swinging and falling. Now it is the end of the market, and the market is also falling from a high.

Gold is trying to break through the upward channelGold started the new week on a bad note, hitting a low of 3260 in the morning, followed by a small shock adjustment; then it began to rise sharply. As of press time, it has risen to around 3350 and tried to break through the upward resistance. Although some of gold's safe-haven appeal has weakened, its overall forecast and price trend remain optimistic. Until we see clear lower highs, lower lows, and a solid trade agreement rather than more political bragging from the Trump administration, the possibility of gold setting new highs cannot be underestimated. Surface calm hides potential risks Although last week's market movements and today's early trading performance show that the market is calming down, any sense of security is fragile. Under the surface, key risks remain: trade tensions, recession concerns, and uncertainty about monetary policy are real. Ongoing trade negotiations remain a key factor. If the United States sticks to its position on tariffs or the negotiations break down, risk aversion may quickly pick up, boosting demand for gold again. Quaid's analysis: Based on last week's market situation, Quaid conducted an analysis of gold's trend this week over the weekend. As I predicted, gold is trying to break through and try a new high. Gold has risen to around 3350, and 3365 is a key resistance level in the upward trend. If the gold price breaks through this position and can maintain horizontal development, it will continue to rise in a stable situation. From the upside, the initial resistance level is $3365, followed by $3430. If the bullish momentum is restored, it may soon hit the historical high of $3500 again. On the contrary, if the price fails to break through the 3365 resistance level, Quaid believes that it is necessary to pay attention to the key support at the 3285 position.

Gold trend picks directionGold fell by 230 USD in a row on the daily line. Currently, 3500 is under short-term pressure. Today, we will focus on the continuity of the decline. It directly rushed from 3288 to 3310 in 5 minutes after opening. Yesterday, it hit the lowest point of 3258 above the 0.5 division of 2956-3500. This position is temporarily supported and rebounded, but whether the adjustment is over is still uncertain. It depends on the intraday closing pattern. If today's closing can stand above the MA5 daily moving average resistance of 3358 again, then there will be signs of the end of the downward adjustment, and the next day must be accompanied by a positive line. Pull up; on the contrary, if it closes below the 5-day MA, then there is a high probability that the 10-day moving average position will continue to decline, and then the 50-division position 3228 is further down, which happens to be the starting point of the big positive on April 16. This is likely to be the end point of this round of adjustment, or there will not be much room to go down, because from the standard wave pattern, it cannot fall below the first wave high, which is 3167, which is also the current middle track; therefore, either 3228 will stabilize on dips, or somewhere in the 3228-3167 area will stabilize, and then finally return to the bullish trend and pull up The short-term 4-hour middle track 3380 has been lost and has become a key counter-pressure point. As long as it does not stand above it again, it will maintain a downward correction. After breaking 3292 below, the 66-day moving average of 3260 will be the loser or loser; the 1-hour K-line is under pressure from ma10 and ma5 and continues to fall. After yesterday's consolidation and pull-up, the K-line has now re-run above ma10, and the macd has formed a golden cross below the zero axis. This wave of 200 US dollars of rapid decline has almost corrected most of it. If it continues downward for another wave, or with the help of bottom divergence, it will slowly brew a short-term bottom; today's gold rebound focuses on the resistance below 3367, below the extreme middle track of 3380, and it is still bearish if it cannot withstand the pressure. If the strong support of 3260 or 3245-28 is stable, we will start to consider bottom-fishing.

Gold market analysis referenceThe recent gold fluctuations are really violent and fast. If you hesitate for a moment, you will basically miss the market. If you are too impatient, you will easily hit the stop loss. Now the fluctuations in a few hours are equivalent to the fluctuations in the past month. The stop loss of 3-5 US dollars can be easily swept. The market is changing, and the corresponding stop loss should also be enlarged. Gold opened higher and hit 3336 in the morning on Monday, continuing the decline of last week. The idea in the morning was to be bearish directly at the analysis point of 3332. After hitting the lowest point of 3268, it fluctuated upward. The European session also fell to 3273 and then rebounded. The highest point in the US session just reached 3336 again, a standard bottoming and rebounding trend. Since it is an adjustment structure, let's re-analyze the idea. The gold price fell at 3500 and rebounded at 3260 last Wednesday. The rhythm was volatile. It rebounded above 3260 many times below, and did not cross the first rebound high of 3367 above. From a technical point of view, the gold price needs to effectively fall below the 3265-3260 US dollar range in the short term before it can confirm a larger correction downward. Once it is confirmed to fall below, the gold price may quickly fall to the 50% retracement level near 3225 US dollars, further pointing to the 3200 US dollar mark. If it loses 3200 US dollars, it will suggest that gold may have peaked in the short term. For the current gold, the 4-hour chart is stuck in a wide range of oscillations between 3260-3338, and is currently at the edge of the lower track. Gold has formed a multi-round back-test support area at the 3270 price level. Although the price has touched this level several times, it has not effectively broken down. The bulls have launched a phased counter-attack. In terms of technical form, the double pressure characteristics have appeared near the previous rebound high of 3370. This area has the dual attributes of the second wave rebound target and the right shoulder pressure level of the head and shoulders top pattern. Today, we mainly focus on the closing price. If it stands firmly at the 3336 line, then we will adjust our thinking tomorrow. On the contrary, it encounters resistance at the high point of today's morning session at 3336 and then falls back, and goes to the 3278 line. Tomorrow we will continue to look at the idea of ​​​​swinging and falling. On the whole, today's short-term operation strategy for gold is recommended to be mainly short-selling on rebounds, supplemented by long-selling on pullbacks. The short-term focus on the upper side is the 3338-3340 line of resistance, and the short-term focus on the lower side is the 3265-3260 line of support. Strategy 1: When gold rebounds to around 3338-3340, short sell (buy short) in batches, 20% of the position, stop loss 6 points, target around 3300-3280, break to 3270 Strategy 2: When gold falls back to around 3265-3270, buy (buy up) 20% of the position in batches, stop loss 6 points, target around 3300-3320, break the position and look at 3330

Gold 100% Trading StrategyGold prices continued to fluctuate this week. Last Thursday, gold prices stabilized and rebounded near $3,284, and remained strong after breaking through $3,300. During today's Asian session, gold prices repeatedly hit the 3,385 pressure level but failed. After retreating to around 3,369 and gaining support, they rebounded again to around 3,396. The current price faces technical repair needs, but the overall upward trend has not changed, and the probability of breaking through the $3,400 mark is still high. The support level of the retracement is focused on the Asian session low of 3369 US dollars and the 4-hour MA5 moving average of 3360 US dollars. You can arrange long orders on dips; the upper pressure focuses on the 3396-3400 line. After breaking through, you need to be alert to the pressure of the daily error band indicator of 3425-3430 US dollars. At present, you can go short at the rebound of 3395 in the short term. The general trend is still dominated by low and long. Gold recommendation: Go short near the rebound of 3395-3400, stop loss 3405, target 3370, strict stop loss for large fluctuations Gold operation: Go long near the retracement of 3370-3375, stop loss 3362, target 3400, strict stop loss for large fluctuations

Gold 100% Profit SignalGold has retreated from $3,500, is the price near a top? Possibly. But I wouldn't sound the alarm bells just yet. This is most likely due to some regular profit-taking. The high indicators are more of a warning than a call to arms. Rather than "get out of here," it's more of a "stay alert." At present, the initial support below is in the 3405-3400 area. Further down are the two key support levels of 3380 and 3357. 3380 is the support level near the middle track of the 4-hour level, and 3357 is an important top and bottom conversion position in the previous period. These two positions still provide strong support for the future market rise. At present, the 4-hour level high has closed in a bearish pattern of Yin engulfing Yang engulfing, and the K-line is negative. The short-term is expected to improve and fall back. Short-term operations will mainly rebound from high altitudes. Pay attention to the resistance near 3435 and 3450 on the top and do not break the air. Pay attention to the support near 3408-3400 on the bottom. If it breaks, adjust the position and continue to look at 3380.

Gold short-term profit is more fun 🌐 Driving factors Geopolitical situation: US President Trump's special envoy Witkov held a three-hour meeting with Russian President Putin in Moscow last Friday to discuss the US plan to end the war in Ukraine. The Kremlin said that the positions of the two sides have become closer. India accused Pakistan of sheltering terrorist organizations, and Pakistan denied it and accused India of instigating separatist activities in Pakistan (such as Balochistan). The situation is difficult to control. Latest news: Russian President Putin announced on the 28th that a ceasefire will be implemented from 0:00 on May 8 to 0:00 on May 11. Market bullish sentiment cools down 📊 Commentary analysis According to the trend of gold in the Asian and European sessions, the trading signals derived from technical analysis have helped many people achieve short-term victories. 🔷 Technical side: For the current gold, the 1-hour chart card fluctuates widely between 3330-3292, and is currently around $3324. ✔Operational suggestions, short-term trading: US gold operation strategy: Short strategy: If gold falls back to the range of 3330-3350, you can enter the market to short, target 3270, stop loss 3355 💥Risk warning Liquidity risk: The market may be bearish in early May, and price fluctuations may be amplified. Policy black swan: Trump may suddenly change tariff policies or personnel changes at the Federal Reserve, causing violent market fluctuations. Technical false breakthrough: There are a large number of stop-loss orders near $3350, and you need to be wary of reversals after inducing more. Summary: This week, the gold market will be affected by geopolitics, Federal Reserve policies and the trend of the US dollar, and the fluctuation range is expected to be between $3260 and $3350. Investors need to pay close attention to key support and resistance levels and adjust strategies flexibly.

Gold 3260-3370 life and death tug of war!This week, whether gold is extremely strong or volatile, we first look at whether 3370 breaks. If 3370 is not broken, it will be in a low-level oscillation range. If 3370 breaks, we will see a unilateral upward trend. In the morning, gold was affected by the geopolitical situation over the weekend and opened higher at 3337, but it opened high and closed low, so it is still in a low-level oscillation range. Today, gold fell and did not continue to break the bottom, so we should not be overly bearish. We should pay attention to the bottoming out and rebound at any time. The support moved up to around 3285. We will rely on 3285 to buy more when we fall back, and then go short when it rises to 3340-3345. It is still volatile at present. Don't chase the rise and sell the fall before it breaks.Although the bullish trend remains unchanged, we must admit that after last week's adjustment, gold is not currently in a very strong bullish trend, but is fluctuating at a low level under the bullish trend.
