Golden Investment Strategy: Opportunities Amidst TensionThe current international situation is indeed tense, leading to a continuous rise in gold prices, which are now nearing $2700, compared to under $2000 last year. It is striking that "when the cannon fires, gold weighs heavy."
Until international relations stabilize, a significant drop in gold prices seems unlikely, so our investment strategy should favor a bullish approach.
Based on current conditions, MA30 will serve as a crucial support level; as long as this level holds, we can pursue long trades. However, a slight adjustment is expected today, potentially dropping to around $2684.
For the highs, we should look towards the $2704-$2712 range—if we reach that point, a decisive sell is advised. If $2700 remains unbroken for an extended period, consider a small short position, and upon a pullback to MA30, execute a minor long trade to see if a breakthrough occurs.
If a breakthrough happens, significant selling should take place, aiming to close positions around $2688.

After making a profit, how to plan the next strategyWe strategically positioned ourselves a few hours ago ahead of the U.S. data release, successfully capitalizing on a significant profit wave. Following the data-driven volatility, we anticipate a transition to a more technical-driven market.
Analyzing the hourly candlestick chart, we observe that XAUUSD remains in an upward trend; however, the potential for further gains is diminishing, indicating an impending shift in market momentum. Key resistance is identified at 2700, with support around 2688. Absent any major news or data releases, the trading range appears constrained, making it essential to accurately gauge market movements to achieve profitable outcomes.
Our forthcoming trading strategy is as follows:
XAUUSD: Short near 2700; Long near 2688.
Sorry, I've already started shorting goldAt present, gold has risen strongly to around 2689, and is only one step away from 2700. Although the gold market is hot at present, I do not advocate chasing gold now. To be honest, as long as gold remains above 2675, I will not advocate going long on gold.
Now that gold is approaching 2700, it has basically reached the short-term expectations of bulls. Now that gold is approaching 2700, it has basically reached the short-term expectations of the bulls. Some of the profit-making chips may be cashed in for shipment. This is why I do not recommend chasing gold. In the short term, since gold rose near 2638, there has been basically no decent correction. So when facing the psychological pressure of 2700, gold is likely to have a round of correction, retesting the 2670-2665 area, and may even retest the 2660-2655 area.
So, bros, while you are keen on chasing gold, I am now shorting gold in batches! Let us look forward to the next results!
XAUUSD: Key Resistance at 2698-2708Yesterday, gold successfully held the support level between 2668 and 2663 during its pullback and subsequently began a consolidation and upward trend. As highlighted in my previous analysis, the strategy was clear: if the price held above this support, we would go long; if it broke below, we would wait for a rebound to go short. If you followed this analysis, I trust you captured significant profits from this movement.
Currently, the price is approaching the crucial resistance level of 2700, where substantial selling pressure is anticipated. It's possible that the price may either break through and subsequently pull back or begin to retreat as it nears this level. Therefore, the prudent approach is to adopt a short position initially and then reassess the situation based on support levels to determine whether to transition into a long position.
XAUUSD: SELLAfter forming a head-and-shoulders bottom pattern, gold has not broken the support level at 2656 and subsequently surged to around 2680. Currently, there is a need for a pullback in this pattern. Traders can initially take a short position, monitoring the support in the 2668-2663 range. If this support holds, consider going long; if it breaks, wait for a rebound to enter short.
XAUUSD: After a New High, a Support Retest is Needed
Following a recent pullback, gold is now in the midst of a rebound, riding the momentum of its newly achieved all-time high. However, the difficulty of sustaining further upside increases at this stage. Therefore, it presents a strategic opportunity to establish short positions in the 2680-2690 range, anticipating a fresh support retest.
If the price holds above 2668 during this pullback, it could signal another buying opportunity, allowing traders to re-enter long positions with confidence.

Use 2684 as resistance to short goldToday, gold was pushed up to around 2683. This round of gold rise is in line with our expectations. Yesterday, we went long on gold in the 2645-2650 area and made a good profit. Currently, gold is approaching the previous high of 2684. Although bullish sentiment is high, I do not recommend going long on gold here directly, after all, the suppression of the previous high still exists.
We have just shorted gold near 2683. Currently, gold has fallen back to around 2674, and our short position has made a good profit. Then our short target is the 2670-2665 area. Of course, if gold can fall back to the 2660-2655 area, I may consider going long on gold in combination with the real-time market.
Bulls Take Profits, Await Shorting Opportunities
Today's long position within the 2652-2646 range has been successful—congratulations to those who followed my strategy!
In trading, identifying strong signals is critical to profit. Without it, the market can be unforgiving.
Currently, the bulls are in control, but as soon as momentum shows signs of weakening, it will be time to shift focus and prepare for a short position. Stay vigilant and ready to act when the opportunity presents itself.
10.15 XAUUSD Trading strategyGold continues to surge higher. From the technical point of view on the candlestick chart, it is now just at the pressure level of the downward trend line and resistance line of the hourly chart. As long as it is suppressed at 2672 later, it is still possible to drop again.
Therefore, in trading, it is recommended to short gold directly at the current price of 2668, with a target of 2655.Because the area of 2655 is the previous intensive trading area, the point of 2655 has a certain support effect, so this wave of decline will most likely come to the point of 2655!

XAUUSD: The risk of shorting is less than that of going long
After finding support around 2638, gold has rebounded and is now approaching the critical resistance zone at 2663-2668. If prices linger here without breaking through, it could weaken the bullish momentum.
From a trading perspective, the risk of going long at the current price outweighs that of shorting. For those entering long positions, caution is advised—avoid overextending and close positions promptly if the previous high isn’t breached. As for shorts, the risk is manageable; smaller initial positions can be opened, with the option to add more if prices rise. In the medium term, I believe a break below 2600 is inevitable.
Gold : A Prime Opportunity for Short Positions
Today, gold remains under significant pressure within the 2660-2668 range, with the resistance around the 20-day moving average (MA20) proving to be a formidable barrier. The bearish momentum is clearly in control, presenting a prime opportunity for short trades.
The recommended strategy is to focus on selling near the MA20 resistance level, targeting the 2645-2637 range. This approach leverages the technical weakness, as the market favors a downward move in the near term.
XAUUSD: Mainly short trading, target 2637-2629
During tomorrow's Asian trading session, the primary range is expected to be between 2654 -2644. There is significant resistance around the 2654 level, and if this resistance holds, the market should favor short positions.
Support is seen near 2643, and if this level breaks, the next target range would shift to 2637-2629. The market's inability to push through resistance at 2658 reinforces a bearish outlook in the near term.
XAUUSD:Trading around 2638-2663 during the day
Following its drop to the 2600 level, gold has found solid support and rebounded strongly, driven by escalating geopolitical tensions. Prices are now trading back above the 2650 mark.
In the short term, attention should be focused on the 2643-2638 support zone. On the upside, key resistance remains near the recent highs, particularly around 2658.
This week's daily close (1D) will be pivotal. Should we continue to see bearish candles without a break above the previous highs, a significant downturn is likely next week or in early next month. This correction is expected to extend over several weeks, shifting from intraday moves to more sustained declines.
We must also closely monitor the global political landscape. If tensions escalate further, there is a strong possibility of gold breaching the 2700 level. However, if conditions stabilize, we can anticipate a drop below 2550 within the next month.
Go short gold!Bros, gold gradually rebounded to around 2650, breaking through the short-term resistance of 2530-2540, but according to the current conditions, gold does not have the conditions to form a unilateral upward trend. Therefore, in the short term, gold still needs to retreat downward, and the key resistance area above is around 2655-2660, so I will continue to short gold in this area.
Bros, do you have the courage to short gold?
Gold Retracement Opportunity: Targeting Key Fib Levels!Currently, Gold (XAU/USD) is poised for a potential retracement towards the 0.5 FibCloud level after covering all the price imbalances. We have key targets mapped out with multiple take-profit (TP) levels as the price retraces. Technically, we are seeing a well-formed structure, with price rejection near the upper channel resistance, and the overall trend indicating a likely pullback to mitigate recent upward movement.
Key technical levels :
• TP1: 2,634
• TP2: 2,628
• TP3: 2,620
Risk Management:
This trade setup provides favorable risk-reward metrics, but it’s essential to maintain disciplined risk management. Stop loss (SL) is placed just above the upper boundary near recent highs to minimize downside exposure. It is advisable to take partials as the price hits respective TP levels, securing profits while reducing exposure. Be prepared to adjust stop losses to break-even or beyond as the trade moves in our favor, ensuring we protect capital and lock in gains.
Conclusion :
This trade offers a strategic entry for traders looking to capitalize on a potential gold retracement, given the technical alignment and FibCloud setup. As always, risk management is key in navigating market volatility, especially during news-sensitive periods.
Note: Please remember to adjust this trade idea according to your individual trading conditions, including position size, broker-specific price variations, and any relevant external factors. Every trader’s situation is unique, so it’s crucial to tailor your approach to your own risk tolerance and market environment.
Expect gold to fall below 2600Gold is currently in a swing state and is still relatively weak, but even so, I did not choose to chase gold short at this time.
Because in the short-term structure, gold has obviously built a double bottom structure in the 2605-2600 area, which is conducive to the rebound and repair of gold to a certain extent. Gold fell from the high of 2684 to around 2605, and the areas around 2635 and 2645 are exactly 38.2% and 50% of this round of decline. Then gold may rebound again in the short-term structure and touch the 2630-2640 area, which is why I am not in a hurry to short gold in the past two days.
Today, CPI and initial jobless claims data will be released. Gold may rise first and then fall back under the influence of the data. So in terms of short-term trading, if you see gold rebound and touch the 2630-2640 area, you can boldly start shorting gold!
CPI data is coming, are you ready to make money?Technical analysis of gold: Gold daily line recorded a big negative again, which is very weak from the perspective of the shape, especially after breaking the 2630 low support and closing at a low level. In terms of the daily line, the five consecutive negative lines in the daily line structure are unfavorable for the development of bulls, especially yesterday's daily line closed with a big negative, which further aggravated the need for adjustment at the daily level, and the price was under pressure below the short-term moving average. The moving averages of other periods maintained a short-term arrangement. The short-term indicators were downward and the volume increased, and the bears had the advantage. At the 4-hour level of gold, the short-term moving average continued the bearish divergence pattern and maintained downward. It is currently running above the lower Bollinger track, and there is no sign of bottoming out for the time being; at the same time, there is a trend of forming a dead cross. If it forms, the downward space will be further opened; the hourly level is currently maintained in a low narrow range of fluctuations, and the strength of the intraday rebound is relatively small. Pay attention to the possible secondary downward trend after the small adjustment and repair is completed. On the whole, He suggests that today's short-term operation strategy for gold should be mainly shorting on rebounds and long on pullbacks. The short-term focus on the upper side is the 2622-2627 line of resistance, and the short-term focus on the lower side is the 2600-2595 line of support.
Continue to short gold after the reboundBros, this week should be magical. Gold has touched my expectations one by one during the decline. I said that gold would at least retest the 2615-2610 area, and it is even possible to touch the area near 2600. Gold fell to around 2604 yesterday, which is exactly in line with my expectations.
Gold seems to have stopped falling and once rebounded above 2620, but in fact, I am not optimistic about the sustainability of gold's rebound here, and I think gold is a bit tempting to go long now. Once gold starts to kill bulls, I fully believe that 2600 is not the end point. Gold still has room to continue to fall, at least retesting the 2590-2580 area, and even looking at the area near 2550.
So in terms of short-term trading, you can boldly short gold with the short-term resistance in the 2630-2640 area! Therefore, in terms of short-term trading, you can boldly short gold by relying on the short-term resistance of the 2630-2640 area! Bros, let us look forward to the next profits!
Has gold seen bottom? Can we continue to be bearish?
Yesterday I clearly suggested shorting at 2648, and 2630 was not the short-term bottom. The final result was in line with expectations and unexpected, because the gold price plummeted by nearly $50, not only reaching our target of 2615, but also reaching the lowest point of 2604. I believe that friends who follow the trading strategy have made a lot of money. Congratulations!
Let's get back to the point. Because the market's bets on the Fed's sharp interest rate cuts have faded and most of the market's positions have chosen to take profits, gold fell sharply by nearly $50 during the US trading session yesterday, with the short-term low reaching 2604, and then the decline narrowed. As of now, it has remained around 2620 for consolidation.
From the gold daily chart, although the lowest point reached 2604, the final closing price was above 2620, just when the daily MA20 daily moving average position was held, and there was no effective break.
So since the lower support has not broken, we cannot directly choose to continue shorting today. Instead, we have to wait for the rebound power to be consumed before going short, and the upper suppression area will be a good choice.
From the 1H chart, the previous support of 2630 has now turned into resistance, and the same is true for the 2640 line. Therefore, today we need to observe the resistance situation in the 2630-2640 area. Once there is a sign of reversal here, I think it is an opportunity to short.
