XAUUSD - Liquidity Grab Before Pullback? | Key Zones MarkedGold (XAU/USD) is approaching a critical liquidity zone around the $3,330 level, which aligns with a strong Fibonacci extension area and previous structural highs. Price has shown an impressive recovery after hitting support below $3,000, triggering a bullish rally that reached our TP at $3,270 following a successful SL re-entry.
The price is currently tapping into a liquidity zone, with expectations of short-term rejection signals forming on the 1H time frame.
If we start to see 1H candle rejections or bearish divergence, we can anticipate a possible pullback towards the $3,140-$3,180 zone, which is a confluence of previous resistance turned support and a Fibonacci retracement level.
📌 Patience is key—wait for proper price action confirmation before entering shorts.
Gold Forms Triple Top and Breaks Channel Bearish Cont' PlayThis chart of XAU/USD (Gold vs USD) on the 15-minute timeframe shows a clear bearish setup forming after a strong upward channel.
Here’s a quick breakdown:
- Trend Structure: Price was moving within a rising channel, but has now broken below the lower boundary of that channel, signaling a possible shift in trend.
- Triple Top Pattern: Three peaks marked as "TOP 1", "TOP 2", and "TOP 3" suggest a strong resistance zone and bearish reversal potential.
- Break of Structure (BoS): Several BoS labels indicate bearish breaks in market structure, supporting the downside bias.
- Projected Move: The chart suggests a pullback to retest the broken channel and then a continuation downward.
- Bearish Targets: The key downside levels are marked at 3187, 3177, and 3151 , which align with previous support zones.
Overall, this chart signals a likely bearish continuation if price respects the retest zone and fails to reclaim the channel.
Gold on aggressive uptrend extension as expectedTechnical analysis: Gold seems to be recovering last week's Intra-day steep decline towards local Bottom in a rather semi-stable fashion with Hourly 4 chart already stepped in Bullish waters sessions ago. The main reason behind it was the strong decline on the DX (comfortably Trading below the #52-week Low's), which entered an Descending Channel and as I've mentioned these past few weeks on my remarks, has the strongest Short and Medium-term effect (positive) on Gold. Technically, there is only #1 session left before the symmetry of the Hourly 4 chart's cycle catches up as the sequence mimics the previous one. Subsequently, every decline since August #12 resulted as an Short-term relief rally which suddenly reversed in even more steeper decline (check August #22, August #29, September #1 and September #7). If fractal is yet to be repeated, I should expect Price-action to show stagnation and stall the uptrend, then kick-start aggressive takedown towards #3,200.80 benchmark configuration where I will be ready with my piercing Selling orders.
My position: I have announced that Gold is on undisputed Bullish trend and total Bullish domination as I've practically Bought every Bottom lately. My suggestion is to continue Buying the dips / every local Low's.
XAUUSD 1H CHART PATTERN Upon examining the gold price action on the 1-hour chart, it's evident that the market recently achieved a fresh high, reaching up to $3245. This upward move indicated strong bullish momentum at that point. However, shortly after hitting this level, the price experienced a noticeable correction. This retracement not only pulled the price lower but also suggested a potential shift in the market structure, indicating that bullish strength may be weakening.
Currently, all eyes are on the $3214 level, as it appears to be a key support-turned-resistance zone. If the price remains suppressed below this threshold and fails to regain momentum above it, it could confirm a bearish continuation pattern. Should this scenario play out, we can anticipate further downside movement in the short term.
The next possible support levels, or downside targets, to watch for in sequence are $3190, $3178, $3156, and eventually $3140. These levels may act as areas of interest for traders looking for potential bounces or further breakdowns, depending on overall market sentiment and price behaviour near each zone.
XAU/USD | 4H Chart Price has respected this ascending channel beautifully with multiple touches on both trendlines, confirming the structure. We recently saw a break of structure (BOS) followed by a strong bullish push.
Currently watching for a short-term pullback into the 4H support + FVG (Fair Value Gap) zone, aligning with the midline of the channel. If price reacts bullish here, I'll be looking for a continuation toward the upper trendline and potential new highs.
Trade Setup:
Entry: At support/FVG confluence
SL: Below the FVG zone
TP: At the upper channel resistance

GOLD (XAU/USD) at ATH – Two Key Scenarios to WatchGold has reached ATH, and we're currently testing a critical resistance zone. Look at my previous published post, perfectly played out and we're just getting started.
📈 Scenario 1: If the 1H candle body breaks above resistance with a confirmed close, we’re likely to see a push toward the $3,300 level before a potential pullback toward $3100
📉 Scenario 2: If we fail to break resistance, a pullback toward the $3,100 zone is expected before a bounce back to $3,350.
Wait for a retest confirmation on the 1H candle body closure before taking any position.
Updates will be published!
GOLD ( XAU/USD) likely to move up from here Take this with a grain of salt. I am no expert, and this is not financial advice.
Technical Analysis (TA):
As we look at the hourly (1hr) timeframe, we can see a strong upward movement followed by a temporary consolidation creating a bullish pennant pattern suggesting a trend continuation. A conservative target puts us at around $3,350 per troy ounce of gold, but we could go as high as $3,494.63 to be exact.
Fundamentals Analysis (FA):
Macroeconomic Uncertainty: I can go into great detail about what is happening, but I would be writing an essay the size of 10 pages, and I don't want to do that now, so here is a quick and simple overview:
Tarrif War between the United States of America and China (as well as other countries) could lead to economic slow downs as well as poor revenue's for companies.
Start-ups are dead. As of today, there has been an alarming rate of start-ups which has been failing and unable to secure funding, and yes I am aware start ups fail all the time and funding dries up, just at the current rate it is scary how many are actively failing where a year back they were alive and well with bright futures and investment potential, investors are running to safe havens such as GOLD to keep their funds safe.
Central banks are expected to pause or even cut rates, which is typically bullish for gold, as lower rates reduce the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets.
Geopolitical Tensions: War War War :(

How Momentum Divergence Reveals Hidden Market Strength and WeaknMost traders watch price action closely: candlesticks, moving averages, trendlines. But there’s a deeper, less obvious layer of information that often signals shifts in direction before price confirms it: momentum.
📌 Quick overview – what you'll learn:
What momentum divergence is (clearly explained)
How it helps predict potential trend shifts
Practical ways to spot and trade divergences
📈 Price vs Momentum: They're Not the Same!
Momentum doesn't simply track price direction. Instead, it measures the strength behind price movements.
Rising prices, falling momentum often signals upcoming bearish reversals.
Falling prices, rising momentum often hints at bullish reversals building beneath the surface.
These subtle divergences are powerful because they reveal hidden market shifts before everyone else notices them.
⚠️ How to Spot Momentum Divergence (Simple Steps):
Step-by-step:
- Find clear price swings:
Clearly defined highs/lows on your chart.
- Check momentum indicators (RSI, MACD, CCI, etc.):
Does the indicator agree or disagree with the price action?
- Spot divergence:
Bullish divergence: Price makes lower lows, indicator shows higher lows.
Bearish divergence: Price makes higher highs, indicator shows lower highs.
- Confirmation:
Always wait for price confirmation like a reversal candle or break of a trendline.
🔥 Why Momentum Divergence Works:
Divergence highlights hidden accumulation or distribution by smart money.
Helps you anticipate reversals before price confirms.
Filters out weak moves and helps you avoid fake breakouts.
📊 Real Example (XAUUSD – April 2025):
Recently in Gold:
Price was dropping steadily, reaching new lows.
Meanwhile, RSI showed clear higher lows – classic bullish divergence.
Result: Price exploded significantly shortly after momentum divergence appeared clearly.
🧠 Trading Tips to Remember:
Divergence signals are stronger near key support/resistance zones.
Use momentum divergence with your existing strategy for confirmation, not isolation.
Always define your risk clearly (set stops above/below recent highs/lows).
🚩 Common Pitfalls to Avoid:
Trading divergence without confirmation: always wait for the market to show its hand.
Ignoring the bigger picture: check higher timeframes for stronger signals.
Overtrading: not every divergence leads to a reversal; quality beats quantity.
🚀 Your Action Plan for Next Week:
Pick one momentum indicator and identify at least 3 divergences on your favorite assets.
Monitor how they play out.
Note down what works best in your trading journal.

Happy trading!

Gold Dips From PRZ – Will Supports Hold for New ATH?Gold ( OANDA:XAUUSD ) started to correct again from the Potential Reversal Zone(PRZ) and near the Resistance lines . The question is, can Gold create a new All-Time High(ATH) again?
In terms of Elliott waves , Gold appears to be completing a main wave 4 . This main wave 4 is likely to complete near the Support lines and Support zone($3,168-$3,133) .
I expect Gold to either rise again after breaking the Resistance zone($3,220-$3,211) or near the Support zone($3,168-$3,133) and Support lines .
Do you think Gold can create a new All-Time High(ATH) again?
Note: If Gold breaks the Support zone($3,168-$3,133), we should expect a further correction from Gold.

Key Points from the Chart:
1. Rising Channel:
The price is moving within an ascending channel.
After a breakout and strong rally, it is currently in a flag or wedge-like correction pattern.

This is a potential buy zone for price to react and bounce.

The target is projected at 3,404.254, implying a breakout to the upside if the support holds.
5. RSI Indicator:
RSI is currently around 65, with previous values near 80, suggesting a slight cooldown but still in bullish territory.
A slight drop in RSI might occur before the next bounce.
