#XAUUSD: Major Update 01/05/2025, Read Description! Gold has dropped over 700 pips since yesterday evening, suggesting further price correction. This is primarily due to strong US dollar data indicating potential correction in DXY Index prices. Additionally, there are speculations that the US has reached out to China for trade talks, although this has not been confirmed. Today and tomorrow are major trading days, with significant news expected to shape gold prices.
For now, you can monitor the prices or take entry if they reach your chosen risk management area. The decision to enter or exit is entirely up to your analysis.
Good luck and trade safely!

Slumped below 3265 on selling pressure. Stay short before NFPGold remains unable to withstand the pressure from the bears 📉. It has finally broken below the previous low of around 3,265. Currently, the lowest price has dropped to 3,222, and the key support level to watch lies at 3,195 ⚠️. With such a dominant bearish trend, don't expect significant rebounds 🚫. In fact, I've repeatedly emphasized in recent days that rallies present opportunities to go short

No Bottom Yet: Gold’s Technical Targets Point LowerSince Monday, I’ve been saying that Gold hasn’t finished correcting, and the price action is now confirming that view. The drop continued with breaks below two key levels: the 3300 figure and the 3270 support, which was the recent low.
After some sideways action (a bit of a limbo), we finally got the clean breakdown. At the time of writing, price sits at 3248, having just bounced slightly from the 3240 support, which aligns with mid-April’s ATH.
Now comes the big question: Is Gold done correcting?
In my opinion, not yet – and here’s why:
Technical reasons for further downside:
1. The break below 3270 is significant and opens the door to deeper correction.
2. We now have two measured targets:
📉 Measured range target: ~1000 pips → puts price below 3200.
📉 First leg down: ~2500 pips → could push price closer to the 3000 zone.
Trading Plan:
The strategy remains unchanged: sell the rallies. As long as price stays below 3270-3290 zone, downside continuation is the base case.
A move towards at least 3200 looks very probable – and deeper levels can't be ruled out.
Don’t rush to call a bottom – let the market show when the correction is really done. Until then, the bias stays bearish. 🚀
P.S: Expect great volatility to remain

Wide fluctuations, short at high levels and long at low levelsIn terms of news, we need to pay close attention to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and the recent conflict between India and Pakistan. Initial jobless claims and PMI data will be released on Thursday, and the unemployment rate and non-farm data for April will be watched on Friday.
Technical side, from the 4-hour analysis, the upper side continues to focus on the short-term suppression of 3320-3330, and further focuses on the suppression of 3345-56. The intraday rebound relies on 3320-3330 to short and continue to fall. The lower support is 3300-3290, and the short-term long-short strength and weakness watershed is 3270-3260. Before the daily level loses this position, continue to see long-short fluctuations, and participate in high-altitude low-multiple cycles. Do not chase orders.
Intraday trading strategy
SELL 3320-3330
TP 3300-3290
BUY 3260-3270
TP 3300-3310

Gold suddenly rose. Be wary of gold’s retracement?The ADP report released in the morning said that the pace of hiring slowed sharply in April as companies prepared to deal with the possible impact of US President Trump's tariffs on US trading partners.
This month, the number of new jobs in the US private sector was only 62,000, the smallest increase since July 2024, significantly lower than the expectation of 115,000, and slower than the 147,000 increase after the downward revision in March.
After the data was released, spot gold rose in the short term and once touched around $3,320.
Gold fell to a low of 3,266 in the morning. With the release of ADP data, it was another short-term rise of $50-60.
Many traders may not know where to start with the current gold market and think it is still in the process of rectification.
Of course, it is definitely not wrong to look at it this way, after all, gold is still in the process of rectification.
However, traders should be alert that some Asian countries have entered a trading suspension state starting today, and it will last for about 5 days. The price of gold may fall during this period.
Quaid's analysis:
Gold rose to around 3320 in the morning, but failed to break through the upward resistance level of 3325. And 3320 is the 618 position of the trend Fibonacci from 3352 to the low point of 3266. If 3320 is the current high point of wave B, then 3352 is point A. Then point C is likely to appear around 3230.
Therefore, Quide believes that gold is likely to break down.
Operation suggestions:
Short at 3305-2210, stop loss at 3317, and take profit at 3250-3230.
Thank you for reading. If traders can leave your different suggestions, Quide will be very grateful to you.
3265 is a strong support level for the current price of gold3265 is a strong support level for the current price of gold
Before today's data release, the market situation was in line with our previous analysis, and the trading strategy was still mainly focused on short selling. The previous market trends have shown that the price level of 3,265, as a strong support level, has been verified as effective on multiple occasions. When the price approaches around 3,265, and at the same time, favorable news emerges, which aligns with the support level we have analyzed, we should quickly seize the opportunity and decisively execute long positions ⏱️. We must always maintain a keen sense of observation to be able to flexibly respond to the rapidly changing market fluctuations

XAUUSD: Gold Once Again Back To $3270 Region, What Next ? Gold has once again backed to the 3270 region and rejected it, currently trading at 3280$. The main question is whether gold will hold on to this level. If not, we could see a strong sell-off taking the price to 3130. This is because the sellers’ presence has increased, and the price has been volatile due to mixed news and economic data, further strengthening the bears’ position in the market.
Despite this, we remain optimistic that gold will continue its bullish move upwards. There’s a strong reason for this: we may see all-out war happening in Asia, although this is purely speculative. For now, you may decide to continue monitoring the price or even take a swing buy, which could be risky.
Given the volatility of gold, we recommend trading cautiously and taking extra precautions while trading gold.
Wishing you good luck and safe trading!

Gold continues to fluctuate widely, mainly long at low levelsAs gold broke below the 3300 mark in the European session, the market once again tested the 3270 first-line support, which is the edge of the lower track of the channel.
rading idea: Go long gold near 3270, with a strict stop loss of 3267 and a target of 3300
Gold Plan: Waiting for the 1000 Pips Drop UnderwayYesterday, I highlighted that the 3280 support zone looked fragile and warned of a potential breakdown.
However, once New York opened, bulls stepped in aggressively, pushing Gold above Friday’s close and triggering my stop loss along the way.
Key Question:
Has the bullish momentum changed the bigger picture?
Why I Still Expect a Drop:
- Despite yesterday's green close, the broader structure remains bearish.
- The 3370 resistance zone is still intact, and Gold is vulnerable under it.
- My target remains a move under 3280, aiming for the 3200 area.
T rading Plan:
I will continue to look for selling opportunities, especially on spikes toward resistance zones, targeting a 1000 pips move down.
Final Words:
The market needs to confirm the plan, but patience and discipline will bring the 🚀 in the right direction!

The gold market fluctuated sideways. Waiting for a new trend?OANDA:XAUUSD During the Asian trading session, gold prices maintained a slight decline; in the early European trading, gold began to fall sharply, but it was still within the trend range expected by Quaid.
Today, the initial value of the US real GDP in the first quarter of 2025 will be released, and it is expected to grow by 0.3% at an annualized quarterly rate, after a strong growth of 2.4% in the fourth quarter of 2024.
If the world's largest economy unexpectedly shrinks, it will re-ignite bets on a sharp interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve. And this data will boost the upward trend of gold.
On the other hand, if the cooling of US economic growth is less than expected, it may bring a short-term relief to the overall market and the US dollar, which will continue to put gold under corrective downward pressure.
However, traders will remain cautious before the release of US ADP employment data this week; this data will limit the reaction of gold prices to GDP data. US non-farm payrolls will help the market assess whether US tariffs have had a substantial impact on the labor market.
Current trend analysis:
The daily line closed negative, and it is still bearish today. At the same time, yesterday's decline encountered 3300 support. In this pattern, regardless of today's strength, short once and see how the European session trends. If the European session falls, short the US session; if the European session rises strongly, the US session may remain volatile. If the European session breaks the downward channel, the US session may continue to fall.
Hi guys, if you want a solid trade, please wait for the US GDP data this morning. Quaid conducts gold trading after professional analysis.
Gold Stuck in Limbo- Sell Rallies, Ride the DropAfter the explosive rally that pushed Gold up to the 3500 area, the market quickly reversed with a sharp sell-off on April 22–23, dropping almost 2500 pips.
Since then, price has entered a consolidation phase.
Initially, the range was between 3270 and 3370, but since yesterday, the range has started to tighten — a classic sign that a breakout is approaching.
Looking at the structure, we’re dealing with a blow-off top followed by a range with clear support and resistance levels. In this context, I lean toward a downside breakout.
The key support is now at 3300 — and a break below it would likely expose 3270 again.
However, I don’t expect the move to stop there. If 3300 is broken, a continuation toward the 3200 zone becomes very likely.
🔹 Trading Plan:
As long as price stays below the 3360–3370 resistance zone, the strategy is to sell rallies, especially when price approaches the upper boundary of the range. Entries can be taken on rejection candles or confirmation patterns near resistance, with stops just above 3370. If 3300 breaks, watch for continuation setups toward 3200.
Only a sustained breakout above 3370 with strong bullish momentum would invalidate the bearish scenario and call for a reassessment.

4/30 Gold Trading SignalsGold showed limited movement yesterday and did not enter either of our predefined major trading zones, leading to minimal profits.
As of now, the price continues to consolidate. A larger movement is likely to occur during the U.S. session following key economic data.
Until then, consider short-term range trading between 3330-3290.
📌 Why Today’s Data Matters
Gold has been trapped in a tight range for several sessions, and a directional breakout is imminent.
Today’s data release will likely dictate that direction, so it is crucial to stay alert.
✅ Data-Driven Strategy:
If data is bullish (gold rallies):
Avoid chasing the initial breakout. Wait for the first spike to settle, then short the retracement, with a TP of less than $10.
If bulls remain strong, the retracement should stay under $20. Once short positions are closed, watch for confirmation to go long.
If data is bearish (gold drops):
If price doesn't reach the lower buy zones(3258-3223), wait for a minor rebound to short, targeting the next leg lower.
📌 Today's Suggested Trade Zones:
🔻 Sell Zones:
3378–3418
3330–3358
🔺 Buy Zones:
3258–3223
3110–3330 (ladder entries)
Gold is still on a volatile downward trendGold continues to fluctuate in the 1-hour chart, and the amplitude of fluctuations is beginning to narrow, which indicates that a change is getting closer. As for gold's current fluctuations, it is still in a downward trend.
Trading idea: short gold near 3318, stop loss 3330, target 3300
XAU/USD: Accumulating Strength and Awaiting a BreakthroughFrom the perspective of intraday trading rhythm, gold has continued its recent pattern. It rose sharply in the morning and then declined, fluctuated during the European trading session, and stabilized and surged during the US trading session. Based on this rhythm, today we can mainly focus on the effectiveness of the support level at $3,300. If this support level can still hold after the fluctuations in the European trading session and the price stabilizes at this level during the US trading session, one can consider going long on dips. As the consolidation period continues to lengthen and the trading range keeps shrinking, it indicates that the market is about to break the current volatile pattern. After the impact of Trump's tariff policies gradually fades away, the market is re-pricing gold, and it is inevitable that the trend will be erratic during this process.
Regarding the subsequent trend, we should focus on how gold tests the resistance levels above. Once it breaks through $3,330 and even further breaks through $3,352, it will signal that the bottom structure is becoming more stable. The current repeated fluctuations are actually about constructing a new upward support platform, laying a solid foundation for the subsequent upward trend.
Overall, there is no need to be overly concerned about the short-term fluctuations, as the overall upward rhythm of gold has not changed. Investors can closely monitor the breakthrough of key levels and seize trading opportunities.

I am committed to sharing trading signals every day. Among them, real-time signals will be flexibly pushed according to market dynamics. All the signals sent out last week accurately matched the market trends, helping numerous traders achieve substantial profits. Regardless of your previous investment performance, I believe that with the support of my professional strategies and timely signals, I will surely be able to assist you in breaking through investment bottlenecks and achieving new breakthroughs in the trading field.
No fear of retracement, continue to be long on goldFundamentals:
1. First, focus on Trump and the Fed’s dynamics;
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, etc.
Technical aspects:
Gold fell after touching 3330, but it is obvious that the retracement space of gold is being compressed. The lowest price of gold only fell back to 3313, and it did not even make any attempt below 3310. With the continuous consolidation and strengthening of the support in the 3310-3300 area, the double bottom structure and the arc bottom form a technical resonance in the short term. Gold should still have room to continue to rise. I expect that gold is likely to continue to rebound and extend to the 3350-3360 area.
Trading strategy:
It is possible to consider going long on gold again after gold falls back to the 3315-3305 area, and expect gold to rise above 3350 as expected!
Volatile, Bearish Bias: Gold Trend Analysis & Trading TipsThe market is in a volatile trend with a bearish bias. Analysis of the gold market trend and trading suggestions
On Tuesday (April 29th), spot gold plummeted😲. Current price: 3306.49, down 1.14%. Opened at 3341.30, high of 3348.36, low of 3299.68
News in Brief
Trump's tough moves keep failing in the financial market😔. Bond market turmoil forced him to delay tariffs. Stock, bond & dollar slumps made him drop the Fed chair firing threat. His trade war "maximum pressure" strategy backfired against a major Asian nation💥. With losses piling up, he may cut tariffs. Legal battles at home are also mounting⚖️. Policy uncertainty could boost gold, but Fed rates or a soft landing might weigh on prices⏳.
Technical Analysis of Gold: After hitting 3500, gold declined😕. The current low is at 3260, which hasn't been broken in three daily trading days. With the pattern of alternating bull and bear candles, it's a clear wide-swing market😣. Don't chase trades as there's no continuity; it just moves back and forth.
On the daily chart, the trading range shifted from 3380-3260 last week to 3260-3330 but rebounded last night, returning to the wide range😲. The alternating bull-bear pattern makes the trend unsustainable these days. Today, the 5-day MA crossed below the 10-day MA, yet the opening price was above the 5-day MA, a divergence🤔. So, a downward correction was expected below 3332. Now there's a small bearish candle, and a small one with a long lower shadow may follow😏.
