Huge Buy for Gold XAUUSD (Trump announces tariffs of up to 25%)How Trump’s 25% Auto Tariffs Could Be a Huge Buy Signal for Gold The proposed 25% tariffs on automobile imports to the U.S. by former President Donald Trump could have significant economic consequences, many of which could drive gold prices higher. Here’s why: 1. Trade War Fears and Market Uncertainty A new wave of tariffs could escalate tensions with key trading partners, particularly the European Union, Japan, and South Korea, leading to retaliatory tariffs and a potential global trade war. Uncertainty in global trade historically increases demand for gold as investors seek a safe haven from market volatility. 2. Higher Inflation and Rising Costs Tariffs would increase the price of imported cars, leading to higher inflation in the U.S. Rising inflation typically weakens consumer purchasing power and drives investors toward gold, a traditional inflation hedge. 3. Economic Slowdown and Risk of Recession Automakers and suppliers may cut jobs or reduce production, impacting economic growth. A slowing economy could trigger rate cuts from the Federal Reserve, which would lower bond yields and make gold even more attractive as a non-yielding asset. 4. Pressure on the U.S. Dollar Trade conflicts can destabilize the U.S. dollar, especially if major economies reduce reliance on U.S. exports or retaliate with their own tariffs. A weaker dollar increases the price of gold, as gold becomes cheaper for foreign investors. 5. Central Bank Demand and Gold Accumulation If economic uncertainty rises, central banks may increase gold reserves, further boosting demand. We’ve already seen major central banks accumulating gold at record levels, and new trade disruptions could accelerate this trend. Conclusion: A Strong Bull Case for Gold If Trump’s 25% auto tariffs take effect, they could trigger inflation, market volatility, and economic slowdown, all of which are bullish for gold. With central banks buying aggressively and rate cuts likely on the horizon, this could be a major buying opportunity for gold traders. Would you buy gold in this scenario?

Copper Bounce? $HG1! at Key Demand Zone!Back at a strong demand level on COMEX:HG1! (Copper futures). The key invalidation is a 4-hour close below 3.92, so I'll be watching closely to manually close. I'm looking for a potential bounce from here, and if the weekly candle closes bullish, I may consider this a reversal setup. The confluence between the weekly support and the current demand zone gives me confidence to take the trade. If the move fails, my next level to watch is 3.7 for another potential entry. Let’s see if COMEX:HG1! behaves this time.

2025-03-24 - priceactiontds - daily update - daxGood Evening and I hope you are well. comment: Strong bears appeared again, volume picked up and we are down 565 points from the high. Big bull trap and these moves tend to get follow-through. Next big support is 22700 and then 22500 and I favor the lower price tomorrow, anything else would surprise me. The big spending bill is priced in and market could not make a new ath after 3 tries now. Downside has much more room than the upside. current market cycle: Clear trading range now and market is neutral around 23000. Also the bull trend line on the daily chart is broken key levels: 22500 - 23750 bull case: Bulls tried the early breakout and it looked promising. Bears surprised me as well and the move was violent enough to go for 500 points down. Bulls have nothing until they recover 23200. If bulls were hopeful for much higher prices, we would have seen them by now. The big bull trend line from 20300 is likely broken now and I do think market has turned fully neutral again. Best bulls can now hope for is to stay above 22500 and continue sideways. Invalidation is below 22400. bear case: Bears need a strong follow-through day tomorrow or might find themselves inside a bigger expanding triangle where we could go up to 23500+ again. Today’s selling was a big surprise and these moves trap traders and can have good momentum for a couple of sessions. Bears want the obvious lows of this trading range tested and maybe run some stops below 22500. They absolutely need to close below 22800 tomorrow to confirm the bull trend line break. Invalidation is above 23200. short term: Bearish. Bears need to stay below 23100 to keep the strong momentum alive. I’d like to look for shorts near the 1h 20ema. Anything above 23100 would make me neutral and above 23200 I would sit on hands and wait. medium-long term from 2024-03-16: Germany takes on huge amount of new debt. Dax is rallying hard and broke above multi-year bull trends. This buying is as real as it gets, as unlikely as it is. Market is as expensive as it was during the .com bubble but here we are and marking is pointing up. Clear bull channel and until it’s broken, I can not pound my chest and scream for lower prices. Price is truth. Is the selling around 23000 strong enough that we could form a top? Yes. We have wild 1000 point swings in both directions. Look at the weekly chart. Last time we had this volatility was 2024-07 and volume then was still much lower. We are seeing a shift from US equities to European ones and until market closes consecutive daily bars below 22000, we can’t expecting anything but sideways to up movement. current swing trade: None trade of the day: Buying the breakout before EU open upwards was reasonable but you had to be quick to change your mind about shorting it since the move down was violent.

gold still ranginggold has been sweeping liquidity and tough for most trader to trade in this range unless scalpers. it has been sideways for the last 3 days and the range is getting smaller which is a good sign of break of structure soon. nevertheless to take a trade at the first nreak could potentially be risky unless small range scalp. current CMP support stands at 3010-12 whereby resistance at 3030-3032. a break above would give a good confirmation of continuation however a break below could be a manipulation break so be mindful.

XAUMO’s full breakdown Let’s rip through XAU/USD like a proper chart-slaying beast. 3 clear timeframes: Monthly, 5-Day, and Intraday (Daily). Let’s get tactical and dissect the hell out of this. XAUMO’s full breakdown coming in hot: ⸻ 1. Price Action Pattern Analysis: • Monthly: Bullish dominance with a strong breakout above 3,000 psychological level. Clean rally from around 2,840, showing bullish marubozu-style candles. But recent candles show indecision — possible exhaustion. • 5-Day: Bearish pullback post new high. Candlesticks show repeated rejection near 3,040 zone. Multiple small-bodied candles (spinning tops + doji) = buyer-seller deadlock. • Daily: Intraday = triangle/pendulum chop. Lower highs and higher lows forming micro-consolidation — expect volatility breakout soon. ⸻ 2. Range-Bound Analysis: • Sideways range seen between 3,012–3,032 for past sessions. Market’s stuck in a tight 20-point zone. • This is accumulation or distribution, prepping for next violent move. ⸻ 3. Technical Indicators (based on price structure): • Momentum cooling. • No clear divergence on chart pattern, but price struggling to hold higher highs = early signs of momentum loss. • This is a textbook reversal potential setup. ⸻ 4. Trend Analysis: • Monthly: Strong uptrend. • 5-Day & Daily: Trend is flattening. Micro downtrend pressure starting to form with lower highs. ⸻ 5. Volume Analysis: • Volume flat across all charts (~302K). • No volume surge to support breakout = price action lacks conviction. • Could signal bull exhaustion or fake breakout potential. ⸻ 6. Support & Resistance: • Support: 3,012 (multiple rejections). • Resistance: 3,032, then major at 3,040. • If breaks 3,012 = big trouble for bulls. • If pops 3,032 = bulls might re-ignite toward 3,060. ⸻ 7. Momentum Analysis: • Losing steam. Intraday candles showing weak follow-through after spikes. • Monthly still solidly bullish, but bearish divergence creeping in shorter timeframes. ⸻ 8. Wave Analysis: • Monthly chart shows a Wave 3 peak, entering Wave 4 (corrective). • 5-Day = Wave B chop in ABC corrective. • Daily = building energy for Wave C. Watch for breakout confirmation. ⸻ 9. Harmonic Analysis: • No complete harmonic pattern yet. • Potential for Bearish Gartley if price rallies to 3,040 and rejects hard. ⸻ 10. Market Volatility Analysis: • Tight range = low volatility. • Expect volatility explosion within next 24 hours. • Breakout imminent — either direction, but right now bearish bias is heavier. ⸻ Hypothetical Trade Setup (Optimized for Day Trade): Order Type: Sell Stop Entry: 3,011.50 USD Take Profit: 2,988.00 USD Stop Loss: 3,027.50 USD Confidence Level: 82% ⸻ Justification: • Bearish momentum building. • Triple test of support without breakout = support weakening. • If 3,012 breaks, sharp sell-off likely, targeting recent demand zones. • This setup keeps tight stop just above range and lets profit run if it dumps. ⸻ Ride smart, ride savage. Don’t be the sheep when you can be the lion.

How to break the position of gold as it narrows in shock?Technical analysis of gold: Gold has slightly risen and fallen during the day, and the overall trend remains in a volatile trend. Gold is currently maintaining a narrow range of fluctuations on the daily trend, but the short-term moving average has gradually diverged downward, and there are signs of weakening in the short term on the daily line. The 4-hour level trend is temporarily maintained in a volatile state, and the price is temporarily compressed between 3010-3030. The short-term moving average continues to maintain a state close to adhesion and flattening, tending to maintain a volatile trend in the short term. It is necessary to pay attention to the continued downward trend after a small break in the 4-hour level trend. In the small-level cycle trend, after touching the previous support band, there are signs of stabilization again. Pay attention to the short-term adjustment. From the overall situation, gold is definitely in the bull market stage. At present, there is strong buying defense at the 3000 mark, and the "W" double bottom Zou shape has appeared below. If it successfully breaks through the 3035 watershed, it is expected to test the pressure near 3045 and the historical high of 3057. Now the low point of the callback begins to move up slowly, showing a small upward trend. First, we will overestimate and undervalue in the 3030-3010 range. We can see that the current gold trend is also narrowing. There is no problem with short-term shock operations, but pay attention to the breakout after continuous shocks. The daily cycle hovers around the angle of the short-term moving average. There is a choice of direction at any time. Follow the breakout. Overall, today's short-term operation strategy for gold is mainly long on callbacks, and short on rebounds. The short-term focus on the upper resistance of 3030-3036, and the short-term focus on the lower support of 3010-3012. Friends must keep up with the rhythm. Gold operation strategy reference: short gold rebounds near 3030-3034, with a target of 3020-3015, and long gold callbacks near 3010-3014, with a target of 3020-3025. If your current gold operation is not ideal, I hope to help you avoid detours in your investment. The information I recently shared about the gold market has received a lot of feedback, and everyone said it was very helpful! If you don’t know when to enter the market, you can follow me 🌐, I will release specific signals in real time, remember to pay attention to the bottom 🌐 signal in time.

Today's analysisFrom a market - wide perspective, the XAUUSD market is firmly bullish. It has twice tested and held 3,000 level, signaling strong buying sentiment. The key now is the validation of the 3,000 “W” bottom. A break above 3,035 resistance may test 3,045, with 3,057 all - time historical high in sight. If today’s upward momentum fades, prices will likely remain in the 3,000 - 3,030 range. On the 4 - hour chart, a double - bottom has formed near 3,000. Consecutive bullish candlesticks indicate a strong uptrend, with the K - line above the short - term moving average. Notably, the middle Bollinger Band resistance is breached. If prices stabilize above this level, an upward move to the upper band is likely. The 3,013 level is a crucial bull - bear line. The next candlestick’s close will determine if the market retraces before rising or continues range - bound. Overall, Ben suggests a short - term XAUUSD trading strategy: short on rallies, long on pullbacks. Monitor the 3,030 - 3,035 resistance and 3,000 - 3,005 support. The market has been extremely volatile lately. If you can't figure out the market's direction, you'll only be a cash dispenser for others.

Gold (XAU/EUR) – Potential Sell Setup from Rising Wedge📉 Market Structure & Pattern: The chart shows a broadening wedge pattern followed by a rising wedge formation. Price has reached the upper boundary of the descending channel, where a potential sell-off could begin. 📉 Bearish Outlook: The sell signal is indicated near 2,811 EUR, suggesting a possible reversal. The target area is around 2,769 - 2,700 EUR, aligning with previous support zones. If the price breaks below the wedge structure, further downside momentum is expected. 📌 Trading Plan: Bears may look for short opportunities around resistance. A break below 2,794 EUR could confirm further downside. Bulls should monitor price action for any rejection near support zones for potential buying opportunities. ⚠️ Risk Management: A break above 2,815 EUR could invalidate the bearish setup. Stop-loss placement above resistance is advisable to minimize risk.

3.27 Technical Analysis of Gold Short-term OperationsOn Thursday (March 27) in the Asian weekly session, the gold price (XAU/USD) was still consolidating around the $3,020 level, and the overall market sentiment was cautious. Fundamental analysis: US economy and Fed trends Geopolitical and tariff uncertainties Technical analysis: Gold prices continued to consolidate at high levels after breaking through $3,000, and are still above the short-term moving average, with an overall bullish trend. Moving average and trend: The moving average is in a bullish arrangement, indicating that the short-term and medium-term upward momentum has not been destroyed. The price fluctuates repeatedly between MA14 (3021) and MA200 (3017). If the market can stay above these two moving averages in the future, the upward momentum is expected to continue. Key resistance and Fibonacci retracement: Fibonacci retracement 0.236 corresponds to around $3038, which also coincides with the high point formed in the previous period. If the price falls below the Fibonacci 0.618 position (about $3,000), we need to be alert to the risk of technical adjustments to find $3,000 or even deeper support.

XAUUSD H1 Short TermGold Prices—Ahead of Key PCE Report - Gold remains in a consolidation phase after last week’s sharp pullback, with traders weighing economic data. Fundamental View: - A strengthening U.S. dollar and rising Treasury yields have pressured prices, but recent dollar weakness—down 3.4% for the month—has helped stabilise gold near the $3,000 level. Safe-haven demand remains elevated amid economic uncertainty, particularly around U.S. tariff policies. Markets are closely watching the potential impact of new tariffs set to take effect on April 2, with a more aggressive stance likely pushing gold toward $3,100, while a softer approach may lead to a temporary dip below $3,000. - Last week, the Fed held rates steady and projected two cuts for the year, reinforcing gold’s appeal as a non-yielding asset. Traders are now turning to Friday’s PCE inflation report— the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge. A softer reading would likely fuel expectations of rate cuts, supporting gold, while a hotter-than-expected number could strengthen the dollar and pressure prices lower. Technical View: - Current price action suggests indecision, with gold trading at $3,027.49. Key support lies at $2,995 – $3,005, with a break below this range potentially triggering a move toward $2,930 – $2,940. The critical longer-term support remains at the 50-day moving average of $2,874.97. - On the upside, a sustained move above $3,057.59 would signal a continuation of the broader uptrend, with targets at $3,100 and $3,150. As long as gold holds above $2,968.92, the bullish structure remains intact, and any pullbacks are likely to be short-lived.

It is still under the 1D MA50, so the newly emerged Channel Up may pull the price back under the 4H MA50 one last time before the next, even stronger bullish wave.
