XNG/USD Analysis: Natural Gas Price Drops to March LowXNG/USD Analysis: Natural Gas Price Drops to March Low On 27 January, our analysis of the natural gas chart highlighted the formation of an ascending channel. Later, on 10 March, we noted that the sharp price increase had created technical conditions for a correction. Since then, as indicated by the arrow on the XNG/USD chart, natural gas prices have declined by approximately 19%. Why Is the Price of Natural Gas Falling? - Unseasonably Warm Weather: Atmospheric G2 reported on Wednesday that forecasts now indicate significant warming across the eastern half of the U.S. from 31 March to 4 April. This could reduce demand for natural gas used in heating. - Rising Inventories: According to the EIA’s forecast, weekly natural gas storage levels are expected to increase by +33 billion cubic feet over the past week. Technical Analysis of XNG/USD Chart Looking at the broader trend since the start of the year, the ascending channel (marked in blue) remains relevant. However, bears have pushed the price below its median line, shifting movement into a short-term downward channel (marked in red). Currently, natural gas is trading near the $3.780/MMBtu level, a key price point that has previously acted as both support and resistance. Whether a bearish breakdown or a bullish rebound occurs largely depends on the upcoming EIA report, scheduled for release at 17:30 GMT+3.

Gold is looking for a new high! Hi All Gold remains bullish and could update its all-time high as part of subwave 5 within wave 5 of a higher degree. With a stop-loss around 3000, we can expect a price movement toward the 3100-3160 zone. Using various Fibonacci extensions, we can estimate that gold’s potential target is around 3160, and under certain fundamental conditions, the price could even reach 3250. This scenario is possible if subwave 5 extends, which aligns with the current market environment. However, it’s important to remember that this is the fifth wave, meaning traders should exercise extra caution. We are already seeing large players reducing their long positions, but as we mentioned in previous posts, this does not indicate a trend reversal—it’s just profit-taking for now. Fundamental factors continue to support gold, particularly due to the economic uncertainty caused by Trump’s policies. Gold remains a key safe-haven asset for investors. 🔍 Technical Outlook: Indicators are showing divergence between the peak of wave three and the current upward movement. Momentum is now below February levels, suggesting that the trend may be entering its final stage.

Copper's Grip: Stronger Than Oil's?Is the U.S. economy poised for a red metal revolution? The escalating demand for copper, fueled by the global transition to clean energy, the proliferation of electric vehicles, and the modernization of critical infrastructure, suggests a shifting economic landscape where copper's significance may soon eclipse oil. This vital metal, essential for everything from renewable power systems to advanced electronics, is becoming increasingly central to U.S. economic prosperity. Its unique properties and expanding applications in high-growth sectors position it as a linchpin for future development, potentially rendering it more crucial than traditional energy sources in the years to come. This sentiment is echoed by recent market activity, with copper prices hitting a new record high, reaching $5.3740 per lb. on the COMEX. This surge has widened the price gap between New York and London to approximately $1,700 a tonne, signaling strong U.S. demand. However, this burgeoning importance faces a looming threat: the potential imposition of U.S. tariffs on copper imports. Framed under the guise of national security concerns, these tariffs could trigger significant economic repercussions. By increasing the cost of imported copper, a vital component for numerous domestic industries, tariffs risk inflating production costs, raising consumer prices, and straining international trade relationships. The anticipation of these tariffs has already caused market volatility, with major traders at a Financial Times commodities summit in Switzerland predicting copper could reach $12,000 a tonne this year. Kostas Bintas from Mercuria noted the current "tightness" in the copper market due to substantial imports heading to the U.S. in anticipation of tariffs, which some analysts expect sooner than previously anticipated. Ultimately, the future trajectory of the U.S. economy will be heavily influenced by the availability and affordability of copper. Current market trends reveal surging prices driven by robust global demand and constrained supply, a situation that could be further exacerbated by trade barriers. Traders are also anticipating increased industrial demand as major economies like the U.S. and EU upgrade their electricity grids, further supporting the bullish outlook. Aline Carnizelo of Frontier Commodities is among the experts forecasting a $12,000 price target. However, Graeme Train from Trafigura cautioned that the global economy remains "a little fragile," highlighting potential risks to sustained high demand. As the world continues its march towards electrification and technological advancement, copper's role will only intensify. Whether the U.S. navigates this new era with policies that ensure a smooth and cost-effective supply of this essential metal or whether protectionist measures inadvertently hinder progress remains a critical question for the nation's economic future.

Gold Tests Trendline, 3000 Target Still in SightGold’s horizontal move ended on Friday with the breakdown of the short-term support at 3025. Since then, the critical 3000 level has been tested twice but is still holding for now. The short-term trend has turned bearish, leaving gold prices stuck between the downward pressure from above and key supports at 3000 and the 200-hour moving average. Trump's recent softer messaging regarding the April 2 tariffs has temporarily eased upward pressure. Today's consumer confidence data will be significant, especially ahead of Friday's PCE release. If the short-term downtrend channel holds, another attempt at the 3000 level could occur today, and a break below 3000 might intensify downward momentum. On the upside, the immediate resistance levels to watch are the short-term downtrend line and 3030, both very close to the current price. A breakout above these levels could signal a continuation of flat move above 3000 until key economic data arrives later this week.

XAUMO report update #XAUMO @10:05 Cairo local time Gold is now testing critical resistance (3,036–3,038 zone). If it breaks above 3,041–3,044, it could spike fast to 3,049–3,057. But that spike is likely to be a LIQUIDITY TRAP. Europe is heating the setup. US session will trigger the trapdoor. ⸻ 1. Price Action Analysis: • Current price: Around 3,036–3,038, brushing against 100% Fibo extension. • Rejection candles showing up near 3,038.52 (Fibo 100%) = hesitation. • Small body candles = indecision. ⸻ 2. Fibonacci Heat Zones (Critical): • Strong Resistance Clusters: • 3,040.55 – 3,043.26 (113%–118%) • 3,045.69 – 3,049.13 (127.2%) • These levels scream: “liquidity targets for smart money before reversal.” • Support Levels to Watch: • 3,026.59 (23.6%) — immediate support. • 3,018.39 (23.6% - higher TF) — major pivot. • 3,012.17 – 2,999.34 — if it dumps, this is the kill zone. ⸻ 3. Volume Analysis: • Short-term spikes in volume, but Volume MA is flat or declining. • That tells me this move is not backed by conviction. • Could be fakeout pump before rug pull. ⸻ 4. Trend & Momentum: • Uptrend is still intact on higher timeframes. • But momentum is diverging — price pushing higher, volume and velocity stalling. ⸻ 5. Ichimoku Cloud Observation: • Price is above the cloud, so bulls still have upper hand short-term. • However, cloud is narrowing = market indecision brewing. • Looks like it wants to snap back down. ⸻ What’s Coming Next: 2 Scenarios: A. Spike-and-Reverse (High Probability: 70%) • Price spikes to 3,043–3,045 • Reverses hard, traps breakout buyers. • Drops to 3,026 → 3,012 → 2,999 B. Clean Breakout (Low Probability: 30%) • Price breaks 3,045–3,049 • Holds above, launches toward 3,057–3,060 But this will need heavy volume, which isn’t here yet. ⸻ Hypothetical Order Setup: Sell Limit Setup at Trap Zone • Order Type: Sell Limit • Entry: 3,043.00 USD • Take Profit: 3,012.00 USD • Stop Loss: 3,049.50 USD • Confidence: 83% This is a sniper setup based on fibo extension + volume rejection zone. ⸻ Optional Aggressive Setup (If it breaks 3,026): • Order Type: Sell Stop • Entry: 3,025.00 USD • TP: 2,999.00 USD • SL: 3,036.00 USD ⸻ Price is in the trap zone now. Don’t get suckered into chasing the green. Let it spike — then smash it back down.

GOLD: Bullish pattern, Short first then LongIn the 4H chart, the bulls have not completely unloaded their strength. From the perspective of the pattern, it should be possible to reach the area around 3050-3058. In the 30M chart, it is currently near resistance, focusing on the resistance of the 3037-3044 range. You can consider shorting around 3043, and the target is temporarily set around 3033. Today there is initial jobless claims data, and I personally expect it to be bullish for gold, so I plan to hold long positions when the data is released.

Gold Daily Update - Looking Bullish!Gold has successfully broken above the critical 3030 level, at least on the shorter time frames of 30 minutes and 1 hour. It has closed above this level and is now retracing slightly, possibly to test the area again. If the price holds above this level during the London session, further upward momentum is likely. The first target could be a retest of the 3050 level, and depending on the volume during the New York session—particularly at the New York Stock Exchange's opening at 9:30 AM EST—it might even attempt to retest its all-time high. Given this price action, the downside appears limited for now, and I wouldn't recommend shorting this market at the moment. Even though we're approaching the end of the month and quarter, when fund managers often rebalance portfolios or book profits from recent gains, the momentum currently seems firmly bullish. Shorts would only become a consideration if the price closes decisively below 3030, fails to reclaim that level, and gradually breaks below 3015. Until we see such developments, the current trend favors the bulls. Wishing you a great day and week ahead!

Today analysis for Nasdaq, Oil, and GoldNasdaq The Nasdaq closed lower, facing resistance at the 240-day moving average on the daily chart. With a significant gap between the price and the 5-day moving average, a pullback toward the 5-day MA was anticipated. The index did find support at the 5-day MA, closing with a lower wick. The key question now is whether the current correction wave will fill the gap created on Monday, as it faced resistance at the 240-day line. If you’re looking to buy on dips, it’s best to focus on the gap area as a potential support zone. The MACD remains in a golden cross, and with a noticeable spread from the signal line, the market is likely to stay range-bound unless a bearish crossover occurs. On the 240-minute chart, a bearish crossover (death cross) has formed, suggesting the potential for further downside. However, the price is approaching a strong support zone where buying interest previously emerged. Thus, buying on dips in lower zones may be favorable. In the short term, both the MACD and the signal line remain above the zero line, indicating a possible short-term rebound. Be cautious with chasing short positions and monitor lower time frames. Also, don’t forget: Today’s GDP release may influence market direction. Crude Oil Oil closed higher, reaching $70 on the daily chart. Since the $70–71 range is a major resistance zone, it’s likely the trend may consolidate in this area. The daily MACD is rising sharply, and buying pressure appears strong and one-sided. Despite the resistance at $70–71, if oil gaps up over the weekend, there’s a chance this resistance could be broken by a gap-up move on Monday. Keep an open mind to this possibility, but also be cautious over the weekend (over-the-weekend risk). On the 240-minute chart, the MACD is bouncing off the signal line, with strong renewed buying pressure. However, if oil fails to break higher, a MACD divergence could develop, so avoid chasing longs at elevated levels. Overall, it’s safer to treat the $71 level as the upper boundary of a range, favoring short-term selling strategies. Watch the lower timeframes for signs of trend reversal. Gold Gold ended the day flat within a narrow range, forming a small consolidation box ahead of today’s GDP release and tomorrow’s PCE data. The daily MACD is converging with the signal line, suggesting we are approaching a turning point — either a new leg up or a bearish crossover. Both bullish and bearish scenarios remain open, so it’s important to monitor how the market reacts to upcoming data. If gold fails to push higher, a bearish divergence may form, opening the door to a pullback toward the 5-week MA on the weekly chart. On the 240-minute chart, both MACD and the signal line are hovering near the zero line, indicating sideways movement. Since the signal line remains above zero, the buy side still holds a slight edge, but confirmation via a strong bullish or bearish candle is needed to establish a trend. Any MACD signal triggered at the zero line could lead to a larger directional move, so keep that in mind. Until data is released, continue range-bound trading, and avoid premature long or short positions, as today’s trend may remain undecided. March is coming to an end. Make sure to keep a close eye on today and tomorrow's data releases and aim to close the month with solid results. Wishing you a successful trading day!

GOLD → Price returns to the channel to form a bullish structureFX:XAUUSD is completing a correction, breaking channel resistance and consolidating above the downtrend line. Traders are waiting for economic data and tariff war actions Trump confirmed plans to impose retaliatory tariffs on April 2, limiting exemptions. The new duties have raised fears for the U.S. economy, which has weakened the dollar and boosted demand for gold.Markets are also keeping an eye on talks between the U.S., Ukraine and Russia.Focus is also on US durable goods orders data - a strong reading could cool expectations of a Fed rate cut, limiting gold's gains Resistance levels: 3033, 3045, 3056 Support levels: 3013, 3004 Gold may test the support zone before rising further. The focus is on the current consolidation 3033 - 3013. A key resistance is formed ahead, a breakdown of this zone may provoke a continuation of growth to 3045 - 3056. Regards R. Linda!

Silver Insights: Aggressive Strategies and Bullish SentimentHello, friends! I’m excited to share some observations on Silver. Yesterday, I came across a couple of intriguing portfolios focused on this metal. The first one is an aggressive call spread at $40-$40.25, while the second portfolio is a "butterfly" spread, positioned slightly lower. Both portfolios are designed to capitalize on price movement, but the first one could yield a threefold profit with just a little push in its direction. The second one, however, will require some time and ideally needs to reach around $38 by the end of April. From a technical standpoint, the chart shows a "spring compression", which often leads to the emergence of such portfolios. While I don’t place too much weight on predictive elements, the sentiment remains bullish. Stay tuned, plan your trades and let’s see how this unfolds!
