It is critical to grasp the entry point when stepping backYesterday, the technical aspect of gold opened in the Asian session and immediately ushered in a strong bullish pull-up. The European session broke through and stood above the 3300 integer mark and entered a strong shock consolidation. The US gold price fluctuated repeatedly and stabilized above the 3300 integer mark and ushered in an accelerated pull-up. Finally, the gold price broke through the 3320 mark in the early morning and continued to rise to around 3350 and closed strongly. The daily K-line closed with a shock break and a long positive, and the daily increase reached 120 US dollars. The overall technical form has completely entered the rhythm of bullish squeeze. At present, all technical aspects are overbought, and short-term technical indicators are distorted. The overall rise logic is greatly affected by the external risk aversion sentiment. The bullish momentum still exists, and the retracement continues to look for opportunities to go long. However, it is worth noting that Friday is Good Friday, and today's weekly close will lead to profit-taking in the market.
From the 4-hour analysis, today's lower support focuses on 3310-3305, and focuses on the important support of 3293-90. This position is also the watershed between the strength and weakness of the bulls and bears during the day. Be cautious about chasing more at high levels. I will prompt you with specific operating strategies during the session, so please pay attention in time.
Gold operation strategy: 1. Go long when gold falls back to 3310-3305, and add to long position when it falls back to 3288-93. The target is 3345-3350.
GOLDCFD trade ideas
Gold continues to surge to new highs!Gold technical analysis: Today, the gold price continues to rise strongly. It has risen all the way to more than 80 US dollars. So can it continue to rise? From the long-term chart, the bulls have not changed. Long is definitely the main idea. But you must pay attention to the risks in the short term. Because the increase from 2958 to the present has exceeded more than 340 US dollars. And today's single-day increase is as much as 70 US dollars. So you still need to pay attention to the risks that should be paid attention to in the short term. But don't guess the top too often. Even if you want to guess the top, you must have risk control. You can't trade based on your own sensory thinking.
It has risen sharply from the high point of 3230 yesterday, and has risen nearly 80 points from the low point. It is also trending to hit a new high. Once it breaks the high again, it will continue to hit the 3330-50 line. The next big target of the weekly pattern and segmentation cycle is 3400. It will probably reach it after a few waves of pull-ups. The weekly line rose last week and needs to rise this week. The current focus is still on falling back or breaking through and following the long position.
The current support below can refer to the afternoon low of 3280, which can also be used as an important reference for European trading. The key watershed below may be at the previous top and bottom conversion point of 3245, while the upper pressure is focused on 3330-3350. Overall, today's short-term operation strategy for gold is to focus on long positions on pullbacks and short positions on rebounds. The upper short-term focus is on the 3330-3350 resistance line, and the lower short-term focus is on the 3275-3280 support line.
Short order strategy:
Strategy 1: When gold rebounds around 3330-3333, short (buy short) 20% of the position in batches, stop loss 6 points, target around 3305-3290, break to 3280
Long order strategy:
Strategy 2: When gold falls back to around 3275-3280, buy long positions in batches (buy up) with 20% of the position, stop loss 6 points, target around 3310-3330, break the position and look at 3350
Will gold first fall and then rise today?
The gold 1-hour moving average is still in a bullish arrangement with a golden cross. Now the price is gradually approaching the moving average, but the gold bull trend has not changed for the time being. Patiently wait for the opportunity to adjust. Pay attention to the support near the previous low of 3185. The moving average support has now moved up to the line near 3177. Overall, gold may form a strong support near 3180. For today's gold trend, I personally think it will fall first and then rise.
Gold weakens in the short term, backhand shorts
Gold is still in a strong oscillating trend in the large-scale cycle trend. From the trend, the short-term moving average begins to diverge downward, and the price begins to slowly fall below the previous row support band and gradually weakens in the short-term trend. Pay attention to whether there is a small rebound in the late trading to confirm the secondary decline trend. In the hourly trend, the current small arc top pattern has emerged. The K line begins to slowly stick to the short-term moving average to maintain a good oscillating downward trend. Pay attention to the support band around 3170 in the short term. Pay attention to the adjustment and repair of the short-term trend. For operation, refer to the short-term opportunity near 3215-6, and stop loss at 3221.8.

XAUUSD sell trade setupThis chart outlines a Gold (XAU/USD) sell trade setup, based on a bearish double top pattern. Here’s a breakdown of the idea:
Double Top Pattern:
The chart highlights "TOP 1" and "TOP 2" at the same resistance level, indicating potential price exhaustion.
This is a classic reversal pattern, often leading to bearish momentum after the second top fails to break higher.
Entry Zone 3230
The trade is triggered at the resistance level after the second top, shown with a red arrow.
The price is currently approaching or at this level, suggesting the trader is anticipating a rejection and a move down.
Stop Loss (Red Zone):3247
Placed above the resistance line and recent highs, protecting the trade in case price breaks out upward instead of reversing.
Take Profits:
TP1 (Take Profit 1): 2:1 Reward-to-Risk Ratio — a safer exit, targeting a moderate price decline.
TP2 (Take Profit 2): 3:1 Reward-to-Risk Ratio — targeting a deeper move, likely to a previous support level marked by a blue horizontal line.
Trade Logic:
Price action bias: Repeated failure to break resistance = bearish bias.
Structure: Lower highs and signs of weakening bullish momentum.
Risk management: Well-defined stop loss and clear reward targets, with a risk-to-reward ratio that favors the trade.
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.
Gold Hits New Highs as US-China Tensions Escalate 📌 Gold Outlook: US-China Trade Tensions Fuel New Bullish Wave Amid Policy Uncertainty 🧨📈
🌍 Geopolitical Drivers Taking the Lead
On April 15th, President Donald Trump ordered an investigation into potential tariffs on all critical minerals imported into the U.S. – a move seen as the latest escalation in his ongoing economic confrontation with global trade partners, most notably China.
This development has shaken overall market sentiment, prompting investors to rotate into safe-haven assets like gold, which has surged in response.
At the same time, the U.S. Dollar weakened sharply, nearing 3-year lows last week, further increasing gold’s appeal for holders of other currencies.
🏦 Central Bank Uncertainty Adds Fuel to the Fire
Fed Chairman Jerome Powell stated that the central bank would not intervene to “rescue” markets during turbulent periods, suggesting that volatility may persist as hedge funds unwind leverage and global investors remain cautious.
He emphasized that the current volatility may be driven by shifting trade policies and broader uncertainty — which he said is “too early to fully diagnose.”
With central banks showing no immediate intent to inject liquidity or cut rates, the bullish case for gold remains strong in the coming weeks.
📊 Technical Outlook: New Highs in Sight, But Volatility Will Be Sharp
Gold continues to print new ATHs, and the dominant strategy right now is to trade with the trend — which clearly remains bullish. In such an environment, sudden drops are normal and not necessarily tied to any single news event.
Rather than attempting to short the market near highs, we are focusing on catching bullish continuation setups after sharp intraday corrections. These will likely form at support zones or classic continuation patterns on M15/M30 timeframes.
🔍 Price Levels to Watch
🟢 Support Zones:
3314 – 3300 – 3284 – 3266
🔴 Psychological Resistance:
3380 – 3396 – 3410
💼 Trade Plan
BUY ZONE:
Entry: 3300 – 3298
SL: 3264
TP Targets: 3304 → 3308 → 3312 → 3316 → 3320 → 3324 → 3330 → higher
SELL ZONE (Psychological Reaction Only):
Entry: 3396 – 3398
SL: 3402
TP Targets: 3392 → 3388 → 3384 → 3380 → 3376 → 3370
⚠️ Final Thoughts
We remain firmly buy-biased, especially as gold continues to be driven by macro and political catalysts. Pullbacks should be welcomed — not feared — and seen as opportunities to scale into longs at structure.
While intraday drops may appear sharp and sudden, they often lack fundamental backing and provide the best entry conditions for continuation traders. Be cautious with shorts — unless reacting to extended psychological resistance zones.
Always trade with a clear plan and never forget to honor your TP/SL levels to safeguard your capital.

GOLD LIVE TRADE AND EDUCATIONAL BREAKDOWN 18K PROFITGold price retains its positive bias above $3,200 amid US-China trade war, bearish USD
Gold price regains positive traction as US tariff uncertainty continues to underpin safe-haven assets. Bets for aggressive Fed rate cuts in 2025 keep the USD depressed and also benefit the XAU/USD pair.
Trading Signals for GOLD (XAU/USD) sell below $3,227 (+1/8 MurraMy GOLD (XAU/USD) sell trade setup looks like this.
Entry; 3215 @ 3219
Stop Loss: 3229
Target 1: 3168
Target 2: 3128
My Trade Analysis:
Early in the American session, gold is undergoing a strong technical correction after reaching a new high around 3,231-3,237 could occur, and the yellow metal could even surpass its high.
The strong volatility in gold suggests caution and lower risk when trading.
Technically, gold has not shown any technical correction so far.
Since the rebound on April 8th around 2,968, it has reached its current high around 3,237, indicating that a new bearish cycle could follow.
We could expect a strong technical correction toward the 8/8 Murray at 3,125 in the coming days. The metal could even reach the 21st SMA located at 3,089.
Technically, XAU/USD is overbought on the daily chart. A strong technical correction is highly probable in the coming hours or even next week. We could expect gold to return to 3,125 or even the psychological level of $3,000.
If gold breaks and consolidates above 3,235, we can expect it to continue rising to 3,245 (daily R_2) and eventually reach the strong resistance of the +2/8 Murray at 3,281, which could act as a barrier.

Click chart above to see the detailed analysis👆🏻
Back in 2015 we witnessed a significant rounding bottom formation on Gold, starting the next major bullrun. With the all time high breakout back in the end of 2023, this rally was just confirmed and after the recent trendline breakout, Gold can still head much much higher.

GOLD: Will Go Down! Short!
My dear friends,
Today we will analyse GOLD together☺️
The in-trend continuation seems likely as the current long-term trend appears to be strong, and price is holding below a key level of 3,311.72 So a bearish continuation seems plausible, targeting the next low. We should enter on confirmation, and place a stop-loss beyond the recent swing level.
❤️Sending you lots of Love and Hugs❤️
