Don't chase gold if it falls below $3,300 The Trump administration's tariff policy has been stopped through judicial procedures. Affected by this news, it is inevitable that gold will continue to fall back today: yesterday's rebound hit the resistance level and fell back to $3,325. The market fell sharply in the early trading, and the market pattern quickly changed from range fluctuations to bearish dominance. From a technical analysis, the bearish pattern of the medium-term weekly cycle is forming effective pressure. Even if there is a sharp rebound in the future and breaks through the recent highs, it is very likely to be a bull trap-essentially a precursor to a return to a downward trend after a decline.

XAUUSD: The LH trendline is the difference maker.Gold is neutral on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 54.327, MACD = 32.010, ADX = 35.582), staying under the high impact LH trendline that has been keeping the medium term trend bearish since the April 22nd High. As long as the price is under it, we are short, aiming for the S1 level (TP = 3,246) and not below it as the 1D MA50 offers long term support. If the price closes a 1D candle over the LH trendline, we will turn long and aim for a +7.39% rise from the bottom (TP = 3,485), which has already taken place twice in the past 30 days. ## If you like our free content follow our profile to get more daily ideas. ## ## Comments and likes are greatly appreciated. ##

5/29 Gold Analysis and Trading SignalsGood morning everyone! Yesterday, gold rose first and then declined. Our long positions targeting 3318–3326 were completed successfully, and we timely shifted to short positions, resulting in another round of solid profits. 📉 Technical Outlook: Gold remains in a bearish trend, and is now very close to the 3275 support level. Based on the current price structure, a break below this level is highly probable. If $3275 is breached, focus on key support at 3258–3238 Resistance levels to watch: 3298–3318 The daily (1D) chart is currently in an indicator correction phase, so today's trading bias is selling from higher levels 🗞 News Focus: Watch for U.S. initial jobless claims data today. It may offer short-term support for gold, but is unlikely to reverse the broader bearish trend. 📈 Today’s Trade Plan: 📉 Sell in the 3316–3328 zone (resistance zone) 📈 Buy in the 3245–3232 zone (key support area) 🔁 Scalp/flexible trading levels: 3303 / 3288 / 3276 / 3258 / 3247 Stay adaptive and combine news with price action at key levels for best results.

Gold fluctuates repeatedly, and the opportunity has come Gold hit 3325 in the European session, and fell under pressure in the US session. It can be seen that the market still has no continuity, and the recent volatility is narrowing compared to the previous period. The whole month of May was a wide range of roller coaster fluctuations. The oscillating market is to operate at the point of card. Wait for a one-sided trend and then follow the trend. Short-term US market rebounds to 3315 to short, and use the intraday high as defense. The 1H cycle support below 3280/3290 is long in batches, and other positions are not involved.

Gold closed with a big negative line, and may fall below 3285 📌 Driving events On Monday, gold prices fell nearly 2%, falling below the $3,300 mark. Investor sentiment improved after U.S. President Donald Trump decided to postpone the imposition of tariffs on EU imports. The recovery in risk appetite, coupled with the dollar's small rebound from last week's decline, put pressure on the non-yielding precious metal. Earlier, President Trump and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen had a call over the weekend and finally decided to postpone the U.S. plan to impose a 50% tariff on EU goods to July 9. The move eased global trade concerns, prompted investors to shift away from safe-haven assets other than the dollar, and pushed global stocks higher. 📊Commentary Analysis Gold showed a downward trend on Tuesday and has now broken below the 5-day moving average. This change has turned the market from a previous strong rise to a volatile trend. However, to determine whether the market has weakened, further observation is needed. From the perspective of upper resistance, focus on the position near 3350. This position is not only yesterday's high point, but also the resistance position formed by the extension of the line connecting the high points of 3350 and 3438. Once the price breaks through this resistance level, it means that the market will return to a strong upward trend. In fact, it is near 3325 or the low point in the previous decline. It is necessary to pay attention to the top and bottom conversion here. The support level below is first yesterday's low of 3285 and the previous low of 3280. 💰Strategy Package Operation strategy; Short gold near 3325, defend 3335, target 3305-3285 Long gold near 3280, defend 3270, target 3300-3320 ⭐️ Note: Labaron hopes that traders can properly manage their funds - Choose the number of lots that matches your funds - Profit is 4-7% of the fund account - Stop loss is 1-3% of the fund account

Gold Price Action Update – Smart Dip Buy Pays Off!Yesterday, gold dipped to around 3290, followed by a minor rebound. Today, as expected, it broke down through the 3280 level decisively—just as we discussed: 🔻 A break below 3280 likely means a gap fill toward 3259. ✅ For those who followed the plan and went long below 3266, the trade worked beautifully— Gold dropped to a low of 3245, effectively filling the gap, and has since rebounded back to the 3280 area. 📈 What’s next? Now that the gap is filled, gold is likely to retest the $3300 zone in the short term. With price currently around 3280, there is still room to the upside. ➡️ If you're holding long positions, you can consider holding a bit longer for potential further gains. 🚨 BUT—this was only a single bottom test. That means there's still a chance of a second dip before the trend fully reverses. So: 🛡 Risk management remains crucial. If you're okay with some profit pullback, it's fine to stay in. If not, consider securing partial profits and setting trailing stops. 🎯 Key levels to watch: 🔼 3300 – Main resistance zone; focus on whether it breaks or rejects; 🔽 3276–3263 – Support range on any pullback; good zones to watch for fresh entries if support holds. 📌 Trading Strategy Outlook: For now, continue to buy on dips as long as support holds, and monitor 3300 resistance closely. If price fails to break above, we may see a pullback—but as always, with proper planning, we stay profitable.

Gold is still washing out, beware of a fall below 3326! 📊Comment Analysis After gold fell in the Asian session, the entire European session rebounded continuously, and the US session hit the 3318 line. Overall, it is still a wide range of shocks and washes out. No matter whether it rises or falls, it is not continuous, and the fluctuation range is large, which is difficult to grasp in short-term operations. The current rise cannot be regarded as a strong trend. The characteristic of the shock market is repetition. The 4H cycle opens at 3326 as a watershed. Beware of a fall below this position in the US session. You can try to go short near 3320/3325. At present, it is a key position to bet on the short position. If it goes up, it will be 3340/3350. The rise in a short period of time is too large, and once it falls back, the strength will be the same. ⭐️ Note: Labaron hopes that traders can properly manage their funds - Choose a lot that matches your funds - Profit is 4-7% of the fund account - Stop loss is 1-3% of the fund account

The golden range strategy continues to workGold bottomed out and rebounded as expected today. Friends who follow me should be able to clearly feel that I have been insisting on analyzing the trend of "bottoming out and rebounding" recently. Today, gold opened at 3300, and rebounded after the lowest price fell to around 3291. So far, the highest price has reached 3325. Overall, the support below gold is still strong, but the suppression above cannot be ignored. Therefore, the market performance yesterday and today was relatively stable, with small fluctuations as the main trend. In terms of operation ideas, continue to pay attention to the support level of 3290-3295. If it falls back and does not break, maintain a bullish mindset. At present, the long orders in the 3290-3295 range have been notified to enter the market as planned, and are currently in the profit stage. If you encounter difficulties in the current gold market operation, I hope my analysis can help you. Welcome to communicate at any time. From the 4-hour cycle chart, the support below gold is around 3290-3295, and the pressure above is concentrated in the 3330-3340 range. In the short term, the watershed between long and short is around 3275-3283. Before the daily level effectively falls below the watershed, it is still in a long-short shock pattern, maintaining the main theme of "high-altitude and low-multiple" cycle participation. Gold operation strategy: If gold falls back to the 3290-3295 line, you can try to go long. If it further falls back to the 3280-3285 line, you can consider covering long orders, and the target is around 3316-3320.

Risk aversion cools down, gold may continue to fall 📌 Driving events The International Trade Court in Manhattan, USA, blocked Trump's "Liberation Day" trade measures. This news is conducive to shorting gold. This news is undoubtedly a reversal of Trump's "reciprocal tariff" policy implemented on April 3, slapping Trump in the face! Gold has been mainly driven by tariffs this year, and the decline is mainly due to the easing of tariffs. Spot gold has fluctuated sharply recently. After opening at $3285.91/ounce in the Asian session, it reached a high of $3294.46/ounce, and then fell sharply. The lowest reached around $3240 and continued to fall. 📊Comment analysis The volatility of the Asian session highlights the fierce game between long and short positions. The changes in risk aversion caused by previous geopolitical and economic data, and investors' profit-taking and other factors are intertwined. Subsequent investors need to keep a close eye on key information such as the minutes of the subsequent Federal Reserve meeting in order to grasp the trend of gold prices. 💰Strategy Package After the Asian session opened, gold was affected by the news and quickly plunged through the 3280-85 area support. After a rapid decline in important support, the upper 3280-85 constituted the next strong resistance, the strong and weak dividing line. Below it, the weak position is expected to gradually fall to 3245-50 before reversing the short pattern, and further to 3225-20 and 3200. Given that the 3250-45 area is a recent bullish breakthrough, the 3245-50 area support is bound to usher in a strong rebound during the day, and further attention will be paid to the 3220-25 area and the 3200 mark support rebound. Refer to it to formulate trading strategies! ⭐️ Note: Labaron hopes that traders can properly manage their funds - Choose the number of lots that matches your funds - Profit is 4-7% of the fund account - Stop loss is 1-3% of the fund account

How to seize this golden short-term opportunity!Yesterday, gold continued to fall from its highs, and the short-term trend was in line with our expectations. The lowest price of gold yesterday hit around 3285, which was also the long area given in yesterday's analysis. In addition, the secondary layout of long orders in yesterday's analysis brought us good returns. At present, gold is in a rebound stage as a whole. Although the momentum and amplitude of the rebound have not increased significantly, this trend has shown signs of a gradual recovery in the market. In terms of short-term operations, it is recommended to follow the trend and wait for the price to fall back before choosing an opportunity to go long. Yesterday, the gold price fell again to around the 3285 mark and received effective support. Today, we still need to focus on the support performance of this area. From the perspective of the 4-hour cycle, today's gold price relies on this area as a short-term strength and weakness dividing line for long and short layout. The lower support focuses on the 3275-3283 range, and the upper pressure is around 3316-3320. The short-term key watershed is around 3275-3280. As long as the daily level does not effectively fall below this area, the overall judgment of the long and short shock range is still maintained. In terms of operation, the "high-altitude and low-multiple" rotation idea will continue to be the main focus. If the market situation or rhythm changes, the strategy will be adjusted in time according to the actual market situation and will be notified separately. Gold operation strategy reference: 1. If gold falls back to the 3275-3285 area, you can consider placing long orders, with the target at 3316-3320. 2. If gold rebounds to the 3316-3321 area, you can try to short with a light position, with the target at 3288-3290.

Gold is about to reach the shorting zone The tariff policy against Europe and Apple was temporarily shelved last Friday due to the decline in the credibility of the Trump administration, which failed to push gold prices up this week. Instead, gold prices continue to fluctuate within the downward channel. Currently, the focus is on the resistance level of $3,325-3,335, and shorting can be attempted near this level. Pay close attention to whether the support level of $3,280 and the resistance level of $3,365 are broken.

Gold 3315 gains and losses are the key 📌 Driving events From the news perspective, data released by the U.S. Department of Commerce on Tuesday showed that U.S. durable goods orders in April plunged 6.3% month-on-month, with an expected value of -7.8% and a previous value revised from 9.20% to 7.50%. Volatile commercial aircraft orders plunged 51.5% in April after rising in March. Boeing said it received only eight aircraft orders in April, the lowest since May 2024, far lower than the 192 orders in March, the highest since 2023. Affected by the sharp drop in commercial aircraft orders, U.S. durable goods orders fell more than expected in April, with core capital goods orders (excluding aircraft and military hardware) falling 1.3%, the biggest drop since October last year. Under the influence of uncertainty in tariffs and tax policies, corporate investment willingness is weakening. Through the data, it is not difficult to find that American companies have shown obvious caution in assessing the demand outlook and have shifted their focus to cost reduction, which directly reflects the impact of uncertainty brought about by Trump's trade policy. At the same time, the tax legislation being debated in Congress has also put companies on the sidelines, further suppressing the impulse to invest. 📊Comment Analysis After the pullback on Monday this week, the decline accelerated on Tuesday, and the continuous decline came back, changing the strong upward trend of last week 💰Strategy Package In terms of operation, in the short term, long and short operations can be carried out in the range of 3315-3297 US dollars, and the support position of 3285/80 should be paid attention to below; medium and long-term investors can buy on dips and take advantage of geopolitical risks and the trend of weak US dollars to gradually establish long positions. ⭐️ Note: Labaron hopes that traders can properly manage their funds - Choose the number of lots that matches your funds - Profit is 4-7% of the fund account - Stop loss is 1-3% of the fund account

Spot gold fell below the 3330 mark 📌 Driving events The trend of gold prices this week needs to focus on the following three major risk events: First, the confrontation between Israel and the Houthis intensified this week. On May 25, the Houthis used hypersonic missiles to attack Israel's Ben-Gurion International Airport for the first time, resulting in the interruption of airport operations. Israel subsequently launched a retaliatory air strike. Iran has made it clear that it "will not give in on uranium enrichment activities" and warned that it will take hundreds of alternatives if it is sanctioned Second, although the Trump administration's threat to impose a 50% tariff on the European Union has been postponed to July 9, the market is still concerned about it. If the trade war escalates, it may lead to increased global economic uncertainty, which will in turn boost the safe-haven demand for gold. However, the repetition of tariff policies may also trigger changes in market risk preferences and have a two-way impact on gold prices. Third, record-breaking air strikes in the Russian-Ukrainian conflict Russia launched the largest air strike since the war on Ukraine on May 26, launching 355 drones and 9 cruise missiles, and many parts of Ukraine suffered heavy losses. The attack has heightened market concerns about geopolitical risks, pushing gold prices higher in the short term. However, due to expectations of a prolonged conflict, market demand for safe-haven assets may gradually weaken. Technically, gold has performed strongly at support levels near $3,330. 📊Commentary Analysis This week, gold prices will remain highly volatile under the intertwined influence of multiple risk events. Investors need to remain vigilant and flexibly adjust strategies to respond to market changes. Analyze the market, make plans, and manage risk. 💰Strategy Package In terms of operations, investors are advised to pay close attention to the situation in the Middle East and the progress of Trump's tariff policy. In the short term, short selling can be carried out in the range of $3,330-3,305, with a target of around $3,290-3,280. Profits can be taken in batches, and a light position can be taken long after breaking through $3,310, with a target of $3,360-3,380. Profits can be taken in batches, and medium- and long-term investors can make layouts on dips, taking advantage of geopolitical risks and the trend of a weak dollar, and gradually establish long positions. ⭐️ Note: Labaron hopes that traders can properly manage their funds - Choose a lot size that matches your funds - Profit is 4-7% of the capital account - Stop loss is 1-3% of the capital account

Gold hits around 3280, please go long in the short term 📌 Driving Events Gold prices fell more than 0.50% on Monday as demand for safe-haven assets decreased after U.S. President Donald Trump announced a postponement of tariffs on the European Union. Trading activity remained subdued as the U.S. and UK markets were closed for public holidays. As of this writing, the gold/dollar exchange rate was around $3,294. Trump issued a statement on Sunday, postponing the date of the 50% tariff on EU goods to July 9, and market sentiment improved. As a result, gold prices came under pressure and fell after a sharp rise of 4.86% last week (the strongest weekly performance since early April) 📊Commentary Analysis Focus on the support level of 3285/80. If this area is touched for the first time, go long 💰Strategy Package 🔥Selling area: 3345-3350 SL 3355 TP1: $3333 TP2: $3325 TP3: $3308 🔥Buying area: $3280-$3285 SL $3275 TP1: $3312 TP2: $3330 TP3: $3345 ⭐️ Note: Labaron hopes that traders can properly manage their funds - Choose a lot size that matches your funds - Profit is 4-7% of the fund account - Stop loss is 1-3% of the fund account

How will the short-term trend of gold develop?From a technical perspective, the overall volatility is limited. In the near future, the upper side is under pressure from the trend line, and the lower side is affected by the 4-hour middle track support. The overall trend is maintained in the range of 3365-3322. The current monthly line is approaching its closing, and the short-term market is temporarily in a high-level oscillation stage. In the 4-hour cycle, the price range is gradually narrowing, waiting for a directional breakthrough. The lower support focuses on the 3325-3320 middle track position and the previous top and bottom conversion support of the 3308 line; the upper pressure focuses on the 3352 and 3365 areas. After a slight high opening, it weakened. The overall idea is still to treat it as a wide range of fluctuations. It is recommended to be long and short in operation, and adjust the strategy after breaking through. Operation suggestion: Go long near 3330-3323, and the target is 3340 and 3352; If the pressure near 3352 is not broken, consider shorting, and the target is to fall back to the 3330 line.

Trading Gold? Know the Difference Between XAU/USD and Futures🔎 Let’s address a question I get very often: “Should I trade spot gold (XAU/USD) or Gold futures?” It might sound like a technical decision, but it’s actually about how you approach the market, your risk profile, and your experience level. So let’s break it down 👇 ________________________________________ 🟡 Two ways to trade the same asset Both spot and futures allow you to speculate on the price of Gold. But they’re two very different beasts when it comes to execution, capital, and strategy. ________________________________________ 1️⃣ Spot gold (XAU/USD) • Traded mostly via Forex brokers or CFD platforms • No expiration — you can hold the position as long as you want • Often used by retail traders for day trading or swing setups • You can open small trades (even 0.01 lots) • Costs include spread, swap fees if you hold overnight • Leverage is usually high — up to 1:100 or more • Margin is required, but typically lower than in futures 💡 Spot is flexible and accessible, but you pay the price through overnight holding costs, wider spreads during volatility, and slippage. On some brokers, especially during high-impact news, your platform might even freeze or delay execution — and that’s a serious risk if you’re not prepared. ________________________________________ 2️⃣ Gold futures (GC) • Traded on major futures exchanges like CME • Contracts have a fixed size (usually 100 oz) • They expire monthly, so you need to manage rollovers • Common among hedge funds and experienced traders • You pay commissions and exchange fees, but no swaps • Margin is required here too — but it's much higher 💡 Futures are structured and professional — but they demand more capital, stricter execution discipline, and higher margin requirements. Just like in spot trading, margin is a collateral deposit, not a cost — but with futures, the bar is set higher. ________________________________________ ⚖️ So, which one is for you? If you're using MetaTrader or any platform offered by a Forex/CFD broker, and you're a scalper, intraday, or swing trader working with flexible position sizes... → You're probably better off with spot gold (XAU/USD). If you're trading big volume, managing diversified portfolios, or involved in hedging large exposure... → You should consider futures — but expect to level up your game, capital requirements, and discipline. ________________________________________ 🧠 Mindset: Don’t confuse accessibility with simplicity. Just because spot Gold is easier to open doesn’t mean it’s always the best choice. Just because futures look “pro-level” doesn’t mean they’re always worth it for a retail trader. Understand your tools. Pick the one that aligns with your structure. That’s how you stay in the game. 🎯 ________________________________________ 📚 Hope this cleared it up. If you want me to cover execution setups for each one, let me know in the comments.

5/27 Gold Analysis and Trading SignalsGood afternoon everyone! Yesterday, gold fluctuated within the flexible trading zone, and we only executed a long entry near 3323, which brought decent profit. Today, gold opened with an upward move toward 3350, but quickly pulled back. The recent market shows a sideways consolidation, with the $3340 level acting as a key pivot zone: Below 3340: dense support areas Above 3340: resistance clusters In this context, any breakout without strong momentum can easily lead to capital flow shifts, causing false breakouts or rapid pullbacks, making trend continuation more difficult. 📉 Technical View: On the 30M chart, bearish momentum slightly outweighs bullish, and gold is likely to remain range-bound within the zone defined yesterday. 🗞 Fundamental Reminder: There are a few important U.S. economic releases during the NY session. Watch closely to see if they provide a clear directional push. 📈 Today’s Trading Plan: 📉 Sell in the 3366–3386 zone (resistance area) 📈 Buy in the 3278–3256 zone (support zone) 🔁 Flexible intraday levels to monitor: 3353 / 3341 / 3334 / 3317 / 3309 / 3296 / 3284 Trade with flexibility, beware of fake breakouts, and focus on NY session data-driven opportunities. Let me know if you have questions — good luck and happy trading!

Gold Pullback as Expected, Range Trading ContinuesAs I clearly stated last Friday, key resistances are located at 3366 and the stronger zone between 3376–3391. On Friday, the price peaked near 3366 without touching the second resistance band, followed by a pullback — a natural result of recent buying pressure being released and previous trapped positions being closed out. 🎯 Congratulations to those who carefully followed and executed the strategy — you should have captured solid profits from this retracement! 🔍 Current Technical Outlook: ✅ A wave of selling has already been absorbed. Now we watch: Support strength — if key levels hold, scalping on dips remains valid; Rebound momentum — short-term indicators favor a bounce, though medium-term structures are still being repaired; Focus zone: 3355–3357 is a newly created gap resistance, critical for today’s action; Previously broken supports (3346–3338 and 3324–3318) now serve as resistance and should be watched during any upside attempt. 📈 Trading Strategy: Today’s price range is relatively contained — stick to selling near resistance, buying near support. If there are any major changes or new developments, I’ll update everyone in time.

Gold Heist Blueprint: "XAU/USD" Short Setup!?Greetings, wealth snatchers and market bandits! 🤑💸 Welcome to the Thief Trading Style, where we combine slick technicals and crafty fundamentals to pull off the ultimate XAU/USD heist. This is our plan to raid the "Gold" market with a short entry, targeting the high-stakes GREEN MA Zone. Expect a risky, oversold setup with consolidation and a potential trend reversal—a trap where bullish robbers get outplayed. 💪🎯 Stick to the chart, execute with precision, and treat yourself to the spoils! 🍾 Why This Trade? 💰 XAU/USD is showing a neutral trend with a bearish tilt as of 18 May 2025, driven by: 📊Technicals: Price is testing a key support zone (~3120) after a breakout from a consolidation pattern on the 30-minute chart. Oversold RSI signals a potential reversal, with the Pink MA (50-period) acting as dynamic resistance. 📰Fundamentals: Recent COT reports indicate reduced speculative long positions, hinting at weakening bullish momentum. Quantitative analysis suggests gold’s correlation with USD strength is tightening, supporting a bearish outlook. 😇Sentiment: Intermarket analysis shows rising Treasury yields pressuring gold, while market sentiment leans cautious ahead of upcoming economic data releases. 💡Data Point: Gold’s average daily range (ADR) over the past 5 days is ~35 points, aligning with our target and stop-loss levels for a day/scalp trade. Entry 📈: Set your trap at 3120 post-breakout. Option 1: Place sell stop orders below the support breakout level (~3115) for confirmation. Option 2: For pullback entries, set sell limit orders near the swing low/high on a 15/30-minute timeframe. Pro Tip: Set an alert to catch the breakout in real-time.

Tariffs are on the rise again, gold is jumping.Information summary: The Trump administration has once again launched a tariff war, threatening to impose a 50% tariff on the EU from June 1, and said that the negotiations between the United States and the EU have made no progress. Because the timing of this threat is quite delicate. Just earlier this week, the EU just submitted a new framework proposal to the US to restart bilateral trade negotiations. This directly led to a jump in gold. Faced with the tough stance of the United States, the EU is not without countermeasures. It is reported that the EU has formulated a contingency plan. If the negotiations fail, it will impose additional tariffs on US exports worth 95 billion euros in response to Trump's "reciprocal" taxation and 25% tariffs on automobiles and some parts, which will inevitably cause further impact on the market. Market analysis: Today, the European session was under pressure at 3335 and the correction method was adopted. This correction method can better show that the price is strong, and the bulls are not willing to give the bears too many opportunities. Therefore, the layout should be aggressive. The stronger the market, the less likely it will fall back. At the same time, the correction of the strong market will definitely not break the low for the second time. Operation strategy: Short near 3375, stop loss at 3380, and target 3350-3340. The price fell back to around 3335, and we will adopt a long strategy based on the downward trend.

Gold can be shorted near 3365-3370 in the US market 📌 Driving Events Gold prices fell about 0.48% on Thursday, retreating from a two-week high of $3,345 and falling below the key $3,300 level. Although U.S. Treasury yields retreated from intraday highs, the renewed strength of the U.S. dollar still pushed gold prices down. The pressure on gold intensified after the U.S. House of Representatives passed President Trump's budget proposal, which is now submitted to the Senate for final approval. At the time of writing, XAU/USD was trading at $3,289, down 0.83% on the day. Although the market sentiment has rebounded slightly, it remains fragile after Moody's recently downgraded the U.S. sovereign debt rating. The fiscal package approved by the House of Representatives is expected to increase the national debt ceiling by a staggering $4 trillion, which has exacerbated concerns about long-term fiscal sustainability. 📊Comment Analysis Gold is now facing strong resistance and buying power is weakening. 💰Strategy Package 🔥Sell Gold Zone: 3365- 3370 SL 3375 TP1: $3350 TP2: $3335 TP3: $3320 ⭐️ Note: Labaron hopes that traders can properly manage their funds - Choose the number of lots that matches your funds - Profit is 4-7% of the fund account - Stop loss is 1-3% of the fund account
