XAUUSD Market Maker Playbook – Learn How the Game Is Rigged🎓 XAUUSD Market Maker Playbook – Learn How the Game Is Rigged Traders—if you think this market is some pure, fair supply/demand mechanism, you’re getting played. Market makers run sophisticated pump and dump cycles designed to trap you. Today, I’m going to break down exactly how they do it, so you can start trading like a sniper, not a sheep. 🔍 Understanding the 3 Manipulation Zones 🟢 GREEN ZONE: Accumulation Range (3286–3300) Purpose:
 Market makers quietly build positions. They create an illusion of neutrality—small candles, tight ranges. Signs:
 Repeated tests of the same level. Volume stays steady (not exploding). Wicks in both directions (so nobody knows who’s in control). 🟡 YELLOW ZONE: The Pump Phase (3300–3330) Purpose:
 Trigger breakout traders. Induce FOMO buying. Clear out short stops above the range. Signs:
 Quick impulsive candles with LOW RELATIVE VOLUME. Price blows through resistance but struggles to hold. Social media and news start calling “Bull Run.” 🔴 RED ZONE: Distribution & Dump (3330–3350) Purpose:
 Offload large positions into retail buying. Leave traders trapped at the highs. Signs:
 Spikes of huge volume as price stalls. Rejection candles (long upper wicks). Big delta shifts negative (sellers hitting bids hard). ⚔️ How the Market Maker Sequence Works Here’s how the trap gets set: 1️⃣ Accumulate in Green Zone Build inventory while convincing everyone “nothing is happening.” 2️⃣ Pump into Yellow Zone Push price up just enough to trigger momentum traders. Keep volume deceptively low—so it looks sustainable. 3️⃣ Sell in the Red Zone Dump big positions into the buying frenzy. Flip the tape bearish—fast. Watch as the herd gets stopped out or bag-held. 🎯 Tomorrow’s Possible Plays ✅ Scenario 1 – Classic Pump & Dump Phase 1: Grind in 3286–3300. Phase 2: Spike to 3335. Phase 3: Dump back to 3260. ✅ Scenario 2 – Fake Breakdown Reversal Phase 1: Slam price to 3250, triggering panic selling. Phase 2: Accumulate aggressively. Phase 3: Rip price back to 3320, trapping shorts. ✅ Scenario 3 – Slow Grind Liquidation Phase 1: Drift up in low volume toward 3330. Phase 2: Distribute over several hours. Phase 3: Liquidate longs into NY close. 📚 How YOU Can Spot This Manipulation Here’s your checklist—save this: ✅ Volume vs. Price Analysis Big price moves WITHOUT proportionate volume = FAKEOUT. Big volume at tops/bottoms = Institutional distribution or accumulation. ✅ Delta Confirmation Positive delta = buyers aggressive. Negative delta = sellers slamming bids. Watch for divergence (price up but delta down = hidden selling). ✅ Candlestick Clues Rejection wicks. Engulfing candles at key zones. Multiple failures to break past a level. ✅ Timing London open and NY open are prime manipulation hours. Thin liquidity in Asia can exaggerate moves. 💡 Pro Tip: “The crowd chases price. The professionals track volume, delta, and timing.” — Technical Analysis and Stock Market Profits 🚀 Stay sharp. Think like a market maker. Trade like a predator. #XAUUSD #MarketMakerEducation #ForexTrading #PriceAction #LearnT

Gold's rally has not reversed yet? The consolidation pattern hasTechnicals: Short-term risks remain skewed to the downside as the momentum of the relative strength index (RSI) and the moving average convergence divergence indicator (MACD) weakens. The RSI hit a new low below the neutral 50 mark. If short pressure intensifies in the next few trading days, gold prices may retest the upper track of the previous falling channel at 3215, followed by the rising support line from October 2024 at 3150. If it falls below this level, the decline may accelerate towards the psychological level of 3000, or even lower to 2970. On the upside, if a strong catalyst pushes gold to rebound above the 20-day and 50-day moving averages (currently 3320-3350), the next resistance level may appear in the 3400-3435 range. A decisive close above this boundary may pave the way for gold prices to move towards 3500, or test resistance near 3530, and then may target the 3600 level. Overall, despite the weakening technical indicators, gold has not completely lost its bullish reversal potential. As long as the price remains within the sideways structure above 3150, the downward pressure may still give rise to a "buy on dips" strategy.

Market next target ⚠️ Disruption Analysis – Gold (1H): 🔹 Pattern Disruption Identified: The chart previously followed a descending structure with lower highs and lower lows, confirming bearish momentum. However, a temporary recovery (small bullish correction) appears after a sharp drop, disrupting the previous flow. --- 🔄 Disruption Points: 1. Break in Momentum (Structure Shift): The recent bullish correction (small upward leg) challenges the consistency of the descending trend. It signals a potential pause or trap in the current bearish move. 2. Price Rejection Area: Price attempted to bounce but failed to break above the previous lower high, indicating bearish strength remains intact, but is facing disruption from short-term buyers. 3. Volatility Spike: The long wick on the recent candle shows a volatility disruption, likely due to economic news or high-impact events (suggested by the ⚡ icon on the chart). 4. Target Zone Disruption: Though the yellow arrow points toward a bearish target, the slight upward pullback adds uncertainty about whether price will reach that level immediately.

Excellent NFP sessionAs discussed throughout yesterday's session commentary: "My position: Gold is Trading within #3,350's belt which represents crossroads for the Short-term. Either #3,362.80 - #3,368.80 break-out to the upside towards #3,377.80 strong Resistance, or #3,342.80 - #3,352.80 break-out to the downside towards #3,327.80 Support. Current Price-action is ideal for Scalping since I don't expect major movement until tomorrow's NFP numbers." Firstly I have re-Sold Gold almost all Wednesday's Asian session from #3,360's (Wednesday - Thursday) closing my orders on #3,352.80 then re-Bought Gold with set of aggressive Scalping orders from #3,345.80 towards #3,352.80. As NFP numbers were delivered, I have waited for decline to find a Support and Bought Gold aggressively from #3,312.80 and closed on #3,320.80. Later on, #3,332.80 Sold again (#4 aggressive Scalps) and closed on #3,327.80 and with mentioned order finalized excellent NFP session. Technical analysis: The Short-term Price-action is Trading within #3,327.80 - #3,352.80 belt as I can easily spot idle movements on Hourly 4 chart with #3,327.80 Support bounces but regardless, Gold is Trading within my predicted values. Spot though on the Hourly 4 chart how Technicals are showcasing different / mixed values, and Gold is isolated within Neutral Rectangle with detectable Higher Low’s Upper and Lower zone. This is what I described on my commentary as an Bearish Divergence (BD) and is usually a first alert that the trend might be pointing to even stronger takedown. See how the very same divergence has Traded since November - April. On the November #12 Low, the Price-action started rising on an Ascending Channel but only once the structure formed a new Low. Then again after mentioned Low’s, Gold started rising until the next Bullish Divergence (which means, after local Low's tested, Gold engaged parabolic uptrend). I am monitoring closely #MA50 on Daily chart which is pointer for new #1 - #3 Month cycle. My position: I will take no new orders as I am Highly satisfied with my returns / also it is holiday in U.S. as I do not expect major moves throughout the session (only ranging candles with Low Volume). Enjoy the Profits and have a great weekend!

Gold Price Analysis – Bullish Momentum Holds Above FVGs🧠 Chart Breakdown: Instrument: Gold Spot (XAU/USD) Timeframe: 1H Current Price: $3,340 Trend: Short-term uptrend intact 🔑 Key Observations: Ch.o.Ch Confirmed (Change of Character): The break above the previous structure high confirmed a bullish market structure shift. Fair Value Gaps (FVG): Multiple FVGs exist between $3,320 – $3,335, acting as potential demand zones and support levels. Fibonacci Retracement: Price is respecting the 0.382–0.5 levels ($3,336 – $3,330) well so far. Below this, the 0.618 level at $3,325 is the next strong confluence zone. Trendline Support: The price is testing a rising trendline, adding dynamic support around the current level. Ichimoku Cloud: Price is above the cloud, which supports the bullish bias. Conversion line (blue) and base line (red) are bullishly aligned. 📉 Possible Next Moves: ✅ Bullish Scenario: Price bounces from current levels or slightly lower ($3,336–$3,330) and retests the recent high (~$3,355). Breakout above $3,355 could open the door to $3,370+. ⚠️ Bearish Scenario: If price breaks below $3,330 and the trendline, expect deeper pullbacks to: $3,325 (0.618 Fib) Then possibly $3,308 FVG support or $3,258 major demand zone. 📌 Conclusion: Gold is still respecting bullish market structure with healthy pullbacks into support zones. As long as the price stays above $3,325, the bullish outlook remains valid. Watch for bullish reaction near the FVGs or a break above $3,355 to confirm upside continuation.

July 2, 2025 - XAUUSD GOLD Analysis and Potential OpportunityAnalysis: Yesterday’s rally was extremely strong, breaking above 3351, a key level I’ve been watching this week — clear sign of bullish dominance. The swing from recent lows to highs has spanned over 100 points, a move similar to past NFP weeks, where strong rallies early in the week sometimes led to sharp drops post-NFP release. However, it’s important not to trade based on assumptions or dreams — strategies must adapt quickly to real-time price action and data. 🔍 Key Levels to Watch: • 3375 – Resistance • 3365 – Resistance • 3358 – Yesterday’s high • 3350 – Resistance • 3337 – Important support • 3325 – Key support • 3310–3312 – Intraday key support zone • 3300 – Psychological level 📈 Short-Term (15m) Trading Strategy: • SELL if price breaks below 3340 → watch 3337, then target 3335, 3330, 3325 • BUY if price holds above 3344 → watch 3347, then target 3350, 3352, 3355 👉 If you want to know how I time entries and set stop-losses, hit the like button so I know there’s interest — I may publish a detailed post by the weekend if support continues!

XAU / USD 2 Hour ChartHello traders. We had a nice push up during the overnight sessions. I would think that we will be pushing back down at some point. I marked my area of interest. Many times the NY session will undo what happened overnight. So I expect a nice push down. We may poke up a bit more, but for me, I am looking for scalp sells if the set up comes to fruition. This is just my speculation and idea but not advice to go clicking the buy or sell button. I will wait half the week to take one trade. BIg G gets my thanks. Let's see how things play out. Pre NY volume start coming in about 20 minutes from this writing. ( 7:20am est) Thanks for checking out my chart. Remember I said we may push up a bit more but I am looking for gold to potentially move down to correct the move up and take out anyone in Long positions in profit. Let's see if my analysis is on point today.

The bull market is too fierce. How to solve the short position?📰 News information： 1. Geopolitical situation 2. PMI data 📈 Technical Analysis： The conflict between Iran and Israel has stopped for a while, but there is a possibility of it breaking out again. There is a possibility of triggering risk aversion in the short term. From a technical perspective, the 4H MACD indicator shows a golden cross, and the moving average and other indicators are also radiating upward, with a strong bullish signal. The 1H chart Bollinger Bands open upward, and the short-term pressure position is at 3340-3345. The short-term data indicators are seriously overbought, and there may be a profit correction in the short term. Therefore, if you want to short in the short term, you can only consider the 3340-3350 range. In the short term, gold will not usher in a large retracement, and the short-term target is only suitable for looking at 3320-3310. As for the long trading point, it is expected to wait for the European and American trading hours. 🎯 Trading Points： SELL 3340-3350 TP 3320-3310 BUY 3325-3315 TP 3335-3340-3350 In addition to investment, life also includes poetry, distant places, and Allen. Facing the market is actually facing yourself, correcting your shortcomings, confronting your mistakes, and strictly disciplining yourself. I hope my analysis can help you🌐.
