XAUUSD SHORTSolid market moves the past few days, I thought it was going to continue and it was safe because market started to stabilize again. However, as expected, one word from Trump and made the market spiraling again. Because of the hold on tariff announcement, we are now back to 3170 level again. Howver, for me, moves like these are always good opportunity for retracement. Opening at 3170// first TP at my prev opening then final at 3000 so we can still be in profit and croos out the previous one. setting a long SL on this one just to be sure at 3270. Let's see how this rolls

4/16 Gold Trading StrategiesYesterday, gold moved within a narrow range, as anticipated. After rising toward the 3230 level, it encountered selling pressure and pulled back, which provided us with some profitable short-term opportunities.
Currently, gold has broken above 3240 and continues to climb steadily. A conservative estimate suggests that a push toward 3250 is achievable without much resistance. However, this is a new high, and after a rapid ascent, it’s common to see profit-taking from long positions and short sellers entering the market from the sidelines. Therefore, chasing long positions at current levels carries increased risk and should be approached with caution.
Today’s Trading Recommendations:
Sell Zone: 3255 – 3270
A potential resistance zone where short positions may be considered.
Buy Zone: 3178 – 3158
Key support area for initiating long positions if the price corrects.
Range Trading Zones:
3240 – 3220
3188 – 3220
Suitable for flexible trading strategies based on real-time price action and candlestick signals.
Summary:
While gold remains in an uptrend, the market is approaching a sensitive area where both selling pressure and volatility may increase. Be cautious with chasing highs, and focus on technical levels for strategic entries and exits. The potential for a short-term reversal or pullback remains if resistance holds strong.
Gold has risen strongly again. Can it break through the 3300 resEvent summary:
The current gold market presents a triple driving logic: the global central bank's continuous gold purchases constitute long-term support, and the US debt crisis and the risk of US dollar trust form the core upward momentum.
Technical aspects show that the gold price rose strongly after breaking through the key resistance of 3275, and the continuity of the bullish trend is clear, approaching the high of 3300 US dollars.
Level analysis:
Gold continued to break through strongly, with the highest price reaching 3293. After the key resistance of 3275 was effectively broken, there was no retracement, confirming the continuity of the bullish trend. The current gold price has refreshed the historical high, and is only one step away from the integer mark of 3300 US dollars. The technical form shows that the bullish momentum is sufficient, but we need to be vigilant against the risk of high-level stagflation. The current upper resistance is 3295-3310, and it can continue to hold after breaking through the resistance line.
Operation strategy:
Go long at 3285-3290, stop loss at 3280, and look up to 3300-3310.
I am Quaid. After seeing my analysis strategy, no matter you have made profits or losses in the past, I hope you can achieve investment breakthroughs with my help and turn every tide of the gold market into our wealth wave.
The early bird gets the worm.The 1-hour moving average of gold has begun to turn upward. If the 1-hour moving average of gold continues to diverge upward, then the gold bulls will continue to exert their strength. After gold breaks through 3245, then 3245 has formed a short-term support for gold. After gold rises, we must wait patiently for adjustments and continue to go long.
Trading ideas: Buy gold near 3250, stop loss 3240, target 3280
4/15 Gold Trading StrategyYesterday, gold experienced a mild pullback and found support near the 3200 level. As mentioned during intraday updates, as long as 3188 holds, it remains a good opportunity to consider buying. Currently, the price has rebounded above 3220. From the candlestick formation, the trend remains strong, and there is still room for further upside. The previous high near 3245 is likely to be tested again, and there’s potential for a move towards 3260.
However, it’s important to pay close attention to the 3230–3240 zone, which was a key area of trapped long positions from last week. This supply zone hasn’t been fully tested since the last drop, and as prices revisit this area, those looking to break even may create significant selling pressure. If this pressure leads to a rejection, we could see a sharp pullback.
Structurally, a failure to break above this resistance could signal the formation of a short-term top, presenting a tactical opportunity for the bears. Conversely, if gold manages to break and hold above 3245, short-term bullish momentum may continue, though the 3250–3270 region remains a strong resistance zone.
On the downside, if prices retreat again and break below 3188, it will likely confirm a deeper correction. Key support then shifts to the 3158–3147 range, which represents a significant medium-term support zone.
Today’s Trading Recommendations:
Sell Zone: 3250-3270 – A strong resistance area, suitable for initiating short positions for aggressive traders.
Buy Zone: 3158 - 3147 – A technical support region ideal for light long entries if price pulls back.
Range Trading: 3240 -3200 and 3178 -3220 – These zones are suitable for flexible trading strategies based on real-time momentum and price behavior.
Summary:
Gold remains in a short-term bullish trend, but significant resistance lies ahead. Caution is advised when chasing long positions at higher levels. If holding short positions from the 3230+ area, avoid emotional stop-losses—patience could offer better exit opportunities as the market corrects. A bearish setup is brewing, and once a clear direction emerges, volatility may increase rapidly. Be prepared with a solid plan in advance.

📌 Driving events
U.S. President Trump said on Monday that he was exploring the possibility of temporarily exempting tariffs on imported cars and parts to give auto companies more time to establish production bases in the United States.
New York Fed: The unemployment rate is expected to rise to the highest level since April 2020 in March. In March, households were more pessimistic about employment and future income. The expected inflation rate for the next five years is 2.9%, down from 3% in February.
Geopolitical situation:
It was learned on the 14th local time that Israeli officials said that Israel and the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) still have great differences on the ceasefire in Gaza. The official said that compared with the previous negotiating position, Hamas seems willing to release more Israeli detainees, but if Hamas insists on requiring all parties to guarantee that Israel must stop waging war in the Gaza Strip after the ceasefire, it will still be difficult to promote an agreement. The official expects Hamas to respond to the new ceasefire proposal in the next few days.
📊Comment Analysis
The hourly level shows that the short-term gold price has fallen from a high level and gradually fell into a narrow range above the hourly 60-day moving average support level. The current hourly level indicators are narrowing, maintaining a short-term shock guide reference. The 5-day moving average and the 10-day moving average at the four-hour level are arranged in a downward cross, maintaining the four-hour level peak signal. The short-term decline gradually brings about the four-hour RSI mean reversion, forming a four-hour level adjustment trend. The gold price has risen and fallen to maintain a shock downward trend, which has not changed the medium- and long-term upward trend. Be cautious to maintain a bullish shock trading strategy during the day.

Gold: Directional Break ImminentYesterday’s market remained calm without any significant swings, unlike the strong movements we’ve seen previously. Today, however, appears to be a critical turning point as the market prepares for a directional breakout.
📊 Technical Overview:
Gold is showing signs of retesting the resistance around 3240, while short-term support lies at 3194–3188. If this resistance holds and the price fails to break above, a double-top pattern may form—potentially triggering a major drop between Wednesday and Thursday.
If the price breaks above 3240, there may be around $30 of additional upside, but this is likely to mark the formation of a short-term top, followed again by a decline.
🎯 Key Bearish Target Zones: 3137-3106
Whether it breaks upward or downward, a bearish opportunity is building. Stay patient, follow the price action, and avoid emotional decisions to catch the move at the right moment.
Gold: It may Fall below 3180 todayOver the weekend, Trump announced a pause on tariffs for popular consumer electronics, prompting gold to gap down to 3210 at today’s open;
✅ Our recommended short entries at 3230–3260 are already in profit;
New semiconductor tariff announcements are due during the U.S. session today — the key driver for gold’s next move;
Given the fragile U.S. political/economic backdrop, escalating tariff conflict is unlikely, increasing the chance of bearish impact on gold;
With gold already trading at a premium, any "tariff relief" narrative will likely trigger speculative sell-offs;
If you're holding short positions, consider being patient — avoid premature exits due to emotional reaction to minor pullbacks.
Maintain key short entry zone: 3230 – 3260;
Expect gold to test below 3180 if market sentiment shifts
4/14 Gold Trading StrategiesLast Friday, gold showed a strong unidirectional rally followed by tight-range consolidation at high levels. Our bearish-biased strategy yielded limited profits, and some traders may still be holding trapped positions due to delayed exits. However, structurally, gold’s current posture signals early signs of exhaustion, and a pullback remains likely.
🔥【Key Headlines to Watch】
🇺🇸 The U.S. has suspended tariffs on popular consumer electronics, causing gold to gap down by $30 at today’s open.
🛠️ Trump is expected to unveil details on semiconductor tariffs — a reduction or pause will likely pressure gold lower.
💬 Two Fed officials speak today:
Barkin: Speech on “Navigating Through Economic Fog”
Cook: Remarks on the Fed’s evolving role in the economy.
📊 The NY Fed 1-Year Inflation Expectations report will be released — market expectations are bearish for gold.
🔍【Technical Outlook】
Gold remains near historic highs, trading at an extended premium;
The recent rally has been largely driven by speculative inflows, not solid demand;
If sentiment flips or profit-taking begins, a sharp sell-off could follow;
Structurally, gold appears to be forming a top — favor short setups at elevated levels.
🎯【Trade Setup for Today】
🔻Sell Zone: 3230 – 3250
Look to short near resistance on failed breakouts
🔺Buy Zone: 3128 – 3104
Consider long entries only on healthy pullbacks to strong support

Gold Maintains Weekly Bullish Structure Amid PullbackGold Weekly Technical Outlook
Gold (XAU/USD) remains in a clear bullish trend on the weekly chart, currently trading around $3,230. After marking a new high, price action suggests a potential pullback—a healthy retracement that could set the stage for further gains.
Key Levels to Watch:
Current Price: $3,230
Retracement Zone:
First support at $3,100, a recent consolidation level
Deeper support between $2,950 – $2,900, aligned with prior breakout structure and strong demand from earlier in the trend
These levels are key for a potential bounce, as they mark high-probability zones for buyers to re-enter the market.
Upside Targets:
Short-term resistance: $3,280
Primary target (by mid-May): $3,400
This level aligns with the projected extension of the ascending structure and continuation of bullish momentum
Technical Outlook:
As long as gold holds above $2,900, the weekly bullish trend remains intact. A rebound from the retracement zone would likely lead to a renewed rally targeting the $3,400 region.
Gold's main rise is not over yet, long is still the core strategHeading into next week, we maintain a bullish medium-term outlook on gold, with a continued preference for trend-following long positions.
Although short-term bearish attempts persist, the broader upward structure remains intact, with pullbacks presenting tactical buying opportunities.
Key support is observed around $3,200/oz, which serves as a strategic level for initiating low-risk long entries within the ongoing uptrend.

Gold Ideas April 11th - Brand new ATH 3220 & PPI✨ MARKET CONTEXT:
Gold is currently testing the 3220 supply ceiling after a massive bullish leg. Liquidity has been swept above March highs, and PA is now in a highly reactive zone. If price rejects here, we look for imbalances to be mitigated below before continuation.
🙌Wait for clear PA confirmation on all entries (5-15m structure shift, engulfing candles, liquidity grabs).
If PPI news hits hard, we might see manipulation — trade after the first 15–30 min.
Don’t overtrade. Let the levels come to you.
Goldie loves the drama. You love the sniper entries. 💅🏽🎯
🎯 Key Reversal Zones for Friday (Potential Pullback if News Hits or Profit Taking Begins):
1. 3190–3195: Minor mitigation zone for continuation longs.
2. 3183–3189: Ideal for sniper entries on a juicy dip.
3. 3170–3175: Key mid-structure retest + liquidity zone.
4. 3148–3155: Full pullback area if market turns bearish post-news.
Keep these levels on your radar, especially if Friday gets volatile. Don’t chase the hype—let price come to you.
🧵 Key Imbalance Refill Zones:
- 3195–3203: First scalp area, high confluence.
- 3178–3184: Strong impulse base.
- 3162–3169: Ideal sniper entry with bullish PA.
- 3148–3154: Big daddy support (but news sensitive!).

Gold Price Surpasses $3,200 for the First Time in HistoryGold Price Surpasses $3,200 for the First Time in History
According to the XAU/USD chart today, the price of an ounce of gold is fluctuating above the $3,200 level on global exchanges — a level never reached before.
Since the beginning of 2025, gold has gained approximately 22%.
Why Is Gold Rising Today?
Today’s bullish momentum in the gold market is driven by two key factors.
First, inflation data. Figures released yesterday for the CPI (Consumer Price Index) revealed a slowdown in inflation in the United States. This suggests a greater likelihood of monetary policy easing by the Federal Reserve. According to Reuters, gold prices now reflect expectations of three interest rate cuts by the end of 2025 — and lower rates typically support a stronger XAU/USD.
Second, fears of a global recession. Although US President Donald Trump has introduced a 90-day delay on the implementation of international trade tariffs, this does not apply to China, where tariffs have been increased to a striking 145%. Traders fear that Beijing could retaliate by raising tariffs on US goods beyond the current 84%.
Technical Analysis of XAU/USD
At present, the gold market is showing strong upward momentum, which began in early March (as illustrated by the blue trend channel). Key points include:
→ A breakout above the upper boundary of the channel;
→ The RSI indicator suggests a potential bearish divergence forming.
This points to the possibility of a short-term pullback into the blue channel, which would be a natural correction — especially considering the rapid $200 surge from $3,000 to $3,200 over just two days. However, given the current news backdrop, it seems unlikely that the bulls will relinquish control anytime soon.

4/11 Gold Trading StrategyFresh High Above 3170 – Momentum Continues, but Chasing Longs Is Risky
Gold delivered a strong one-sided rally yesterday, rising from around 3078 to above 3170, setting a fresh short-term high. While CPI and jobless claims data were modestly bullish, most of the rally occurred before the data release, suggesting that the move was primarily technically driven rather than fundamentally triggered.
As we anticipated yesterday, the price did reach above 3170 , and as clearly stated, we did not recommend chasing long positions at those highs. This view remains unchanged today.
🔍【Technical Insights】
The recovery from 2955 back to 3160+ took just 2 sessions, versus 4 sessions for the prior drop from 3167 — a clear sign of momentum dominance.
The daily chart shows two strong bullish candles, typically a sign of follow-through potential.
However, new highs reached under this structure tend to attract profit-taking and possible pullbacks.
If a technical correction occurs, look to 3143–3128 as a meaningful support zone for long opportunities.
🎯【Today's Gold Trade Setup】
🔻Sell Zone: 3188 – 3215
Look for short entries near resistance after overextension
🔺Buy Zone: 3134 – 3112
Wait for a healthy pullback to consider long positions
🔄Range Zone: 3178 – 3143
Flexible trading range — favor quick in/out trades in the zone
Gold: CPI Data Trading ViewsToday's signals for XAUUSD / BTCUSD / GBPUSD all hit their targets!
Congrats to everyone who followed—great profits all around!
🕒 Reminder: CPI data will be released in 1.5 hours.
Before that, we may see:
A quiet, ranging market, or
A pre-release pricing-in scenario that leads to sharp volatility ⚠️
Trading Suggestions:
✅ If you want to avoid unnecessary risk, it’s better to pause trading and wait for the data release
✅ If you're holding positions, please:
Manage your risk carefully
For large positions, consider partial closing or adding SL
Post-CPI Strategy Outlook:
Price has reached key resistance zones
If the data is bullish, further upside may be limited due to:
Proximity to recent highs
Remaining selling pressure in the market
Therefore, focus on:
High-level short entries or low-level long entries
Avoid blindly chasing the market—don’t go long at the top or short at the bottom
To sum it up:
Control your emotions, manage your positions wisely.
The 30 minutes after the CPI release will separate winners from losers!
4/10 Gold Trading StrategiesGold maintained a bullish tone yesterday, with prices recovering steadily toward the 3100 level, offering smooth trade opportunities and favorable returns.
However, today presents a significantly more complex trading environment due to several high-impact events:
🇺🇸 US CPI (MoM + Core CPI)
📝 Initial Jobless Claims
🗣️ Fed speakers including Barkin and Schmid
Technically, gold is now at a crucial inflection point , where market interpretation diverges:
If this is merely a corrective rebound in a broader downtrend , the move may be near completion.
If instead it's a healthy retracement in an ongoing uptrend, we could be in the middle phase of a continued climb.
Given the mix of technical ambiguity and fundamental uncertainty, a neutral and reactive trading stance is essential today.
🎯【Recommended Strategy & Positioning】
Trade Against Emotional Swings
Avoid chasing price during high-volatility news. Look to sell after sharp rallies and buy after sharp dips , minimizing exposure to emotional trades.
Key Zone Analysis – Watch the Trapped Orders
3128–3158: Zone where many long positions may be trapped — watch for selling pressure.
3016–2978: Former short-entry zone — potential area for long-side reactivation if retested.

Risk aversion continues to escalate, go long after gold retreats
Gold has two effective support positions. The first one is near 3048, and gold rises rapidly after hitting the bottom of 3048. The second one is near 3070. If gold does not break through 3070, it will continue its strong bull market. If gold falls back near 3048, then gold may start to maintain a large range of shocks.
Trading idea: Go long near gold 3070, stop loss 3060, target 3100
