XAUUSD trade ideas

XAUUS SHORTStubborn XAUUSD, played with my TP1 a few times, almost hitting it but never really reached and instead it went the other way and touched my SL. However Im still on a strong sell in this. Opening at 3078 and still maintaining my previous TP 3005 because I know that's the direction that it will head to, if this reaches, it will cover 3days loss, and setting my SL on a much further rate. Personally, I dont use SL's but for Tradingview Im opting to put one as a good practice Day12of100 L:4 W:1 Such a shame that my L days are way more than my W's but still believing in my trade and I know this will pick up. let's see how this new trade rolls. XAUUSD is already in it's all time high, so I believe soon enough my much awaited correction will happen, Il be patient :)

XAUUSD Bearish Breakdown: Riding the Rising Wedge to Profit1. Chart Pattern: Rising Wedge (Bearish Reversal) The Rising Wedge is a technical pattern that occurs when price makes higher highs and higher lows within converging trendlines. This pattern is considered bearish, as it usually precedes a breakdown when price fails to sustain the higher levels. The pattern is clearly visible as price moves within two upward-sloping black trendlines. The narrowing range suggests that buying pressure is weakening, and sellers are gaining control. A confirmed breakdown occurs when price breaks below the lower trendline, indicating potential further downside. 2. Key Technical Levels Resistance Level (Highlighted in Beige, Top Box) This area represents a strong supply zone where price has struggled to move higher. Each time the price reaches this level, selling pressure increases, pushing the price lower. The chart labels this as the Resistance Level, suggesting a potential reversal zone. Support Level (Highlighted in Beige, Lower Box) This is the previous demand zone, where price has rebounded multiple times. Once price reaches this level, buyers may attempt to push it higher. However, if this level fails to hold after the breakdown, further downside is expected. Stop Loss Level (~3,150) The stop loss is placed just above the recent highs. If price moves beyond this level, it would invalidate the bearish setup. Traders use stop losses to limit risk in case the market moves against the position. Target Level (~3,080) This is the projected downside target based on the height of the wedge. A measured move (calculated from the highest to the lowest point of the wedge) aligns with this target. It represents a potential 1.78% decline from the breakdown level. 3. Price Action & Trade Setup Breakout Confirmation: The price broke below the lower trendline, confirming a wedge breakdown. The bearish momentum suggests sellers are in control. Entry Zone: A good short-selling opportunity is identified after the breakdown and potential retest of the lower trendline. Risk Management: Stop loss at 3,150 (above resistance). Profit target at 3,080 (expected support). This gives a favorable risk-to-reward ratio. 4. Market Psychology Behind the Pattern Rising Wedge Psychology: The pattern forms as buyers push price higher, but each new high has weaker momentum. Eventually, selling pressure outweighs buying interest, leading to a breakdown. Resistance & Support Psychology: The resistance area acts as a supply zone where big traders sell their positions. The support zone may hold temporarily, but if it breaks, panic selling could accelerate the decline. 5. Possible Scenarios After the Breakdown Bearish Case (Most Likely Outcome) Price continues downward after breakdown. It reaches the 3,080 target with increased selling momentum. Confirmation of a bearish reversal pattern. Bullish Case (Invalidation of Setup) Price reclaims the wedge and moves back above resistance. It invalidates the bearish breakdown, stopping out sellers. A potential bullish continuation toward new highs. Final Thoughts This chart presents a high-probability short trade based on the Rising Wedge breakdown and resistance rejection. Traders can manage risk by setting a tight stop loss above resistance while aiming for a target at the next key support zone. The pattern suggests a bearish sentiment in the short term, favoring sell setups over buying opportunities. Would you like me to add further insights, such as Fibonacci levels or RSI analysis, to strengthen the trade idea? 🚀

XAUUSD:Place short positions during the rebound I conducted resistance tests at the levels of 3,100 and 3,115. However, in the early trading session, the price of gold surged rapidly, soaring all the way to around 3,027. In the later period, choosing to stand by and observe to avoid risks could also be regarded as a sound strategy. Now, the market has approached a stable state. The resistance test at 3,027 has proven to be effective. One can place a short position near 3,025 during the rebound.

Gold Long Trade Setup Analysis (5H Timeframe - IGSB)📍Gold has made significant moves upwards since January, climbing an additional $300. 📍Currently Gold is showing signs of a reversal, however technicals inform us that this is not yet time for a larger retracement. 📍Below is our previous Gold idea, executed in January 2025 at the break out of a long term triangle pattern. Our entry was $2695, with a target (determined by the triangles range) falls at $3100, just slightly above a key psychological level of $3000. 📍At the moment Gold has not yet tested $3000, an we expect to see this happen before a deeper retracement occurs. 📍As of Friday Gold hit our Entry target of $2840, which was identified by higher timeframe dynamic support (high validity) which falls inline with lower timeframe price structure. The confluence adds confidence to our trade execution. We can, as a result of precise, high validity higher time frame dynamic support add another position onto our original from January. We can do so with a very tight stop just slightly below this dynamic support of 2840 as it is very unlikely to be broken at this time. Current Outlook: Risk/Reward = 1:15.8 📈 Bullish Scenario (Breakout Play) - 🟢 Entry: Price has tested our higher timeframe dynamic support, which represents a significant, highly valid resistance level that is likely to hold its weight. This sits at $2840. - A bounce from this level would see Gold return to the all-time high price, likely moving beyond this to $3000, $3050, $3100 before a potential larger retracement is seen. ✅ Justification: - 🔹 Gold broke out of a long term triangle structure which formed between October 2024 and January 2025. This significant price consolidation range once broken gives a rough estimate of a future price target, determined by the height of the range. This when plotted from the breakout point gives us a rough target of $3100, which falls in line with key psychological levels and a more recent fib extension. 📍 Key Resistance Levels (Potential Rejection Zones): - 🎯 $2880, $2919, $2942 (Previous horizontal structure) - 📍 Key Support Levels: - ❗ $2840 (higher timeframe dynamic support) - 🔻 $2800 (key psychological level) - 📉 Deeper Target: $3000 - $3100 (Projected based on Fibonacci extensions, previous long term triangle breakout and key psychological levels) 📉 Bearish Scenario (Does not fit our strategy) - ❌ Invalidation Level: Below $2800 - 🔻 Downside Targets: We are not shorting Gold at this time. We would wait for another buy, aligning our direction with higher timeframe trend direction. ✅ Justification: ⚡ Key Takeaways: - 🔹 Gold is yet to test the key psychological level of $3000 which has multiple confluecing endpoints. - 🔹 The recent fall gives us an opportunity to add to our previous position after testing a high validity higher timeframe dynamic support of $2840. - 🔹 Gold still remains in a long term bullish direction, therefore we will not consider any shorts. - 🔹 Expect price to move upwards to test $3000 before a potential higher timeframe reversal. Previous idea: Gold breaks long term triangle ❗ Fundamental outlook: ❗ 📍The recent meeting between former U.S. President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy revealed key geopolitical tensions that could have significant implications for gold prices. ❗ 1. Geopolitical Uncertainty and Safe-Haven Demand The discussions between Trump and Zelenskyy highlighted the ongoing instability in Ukraine. Trump's comments suggested that Ukraine is in a vulnerable position and reliant on U.S. support, while Zelenskyy pushed back against the notion of "playing cards" with his country’s fate. This kind of uncertainty, combined with threats of a broader conflict (Trump warning about "World War III"), increases global investor anxiety, leading to greater demand for gold as a safe-haven asset. ❗ 2. U.S. Policy Shifts and Potential Impact on Gold Trump's remarks indicated that if he returns to power, U.S. support for Ukraine may be conditional or reduced. This could have ripple effects on global markets: If the U.S. withdraws or reduces military aid to Ukraine, Russia could gain more leverage, intensifying the conflict and causing further instability in Europe. Increased geopolitical risk would push investors toward gold, historically a hedge against uncertainty. ❗ 3. Economic and Trade Factors Affecting Gold Prices The second and third images describe how U.S. trade policies, particularly Trump's tariffs, have influenced gold markets. Key points include: The threat of tariffs on European goods led to a price drop in London’s gold market, while New York prices surged, creating arbitrage opportunities. JPMorgan and other major banks are capitalizing on this price discrepancy by moving billions in gold from London to New York. This suggests that U.S. economic policies, particularly those under Trump, could further impact gold's valuation. If he resumes a protectionist trade stance, increased economic uncertainty could drive gold prices even higher. ❗ 4. Central Bank and Institutional Moves With banks like JPMorgan and HSBC heavily involved in gold arbitrage, it’s evident that financial institutions are positioning themselves ahead of potential major economic shifts. This increased activity in gold markets often signals expectations of rising prices. Fundamental Analysis Conclusion 📍Increased geopolitical tensions (Trump’s stance on Ukraine, potential shift in U.S. foreign policy) add uncertainty, boosting gold demand. 📍Trade and tariff policies under Trump could further impact global economic stability, leading to gold being a preferred hedge. 📍Institutional involvement in gold arbitrage suggests smart money is already betting on future price increases. 📍Macroeconomic risks such as potential wars, inflationary pressures, and central bank gold accumulation reinforce a bullish gold outlook. Outlook: Bullish for Gold 📈Given the combination of political instability, economic policy uncertainty, and institutional gold positioning, the fundamentals point toward continued strength in gold prices. Investors should monitor how U.S. policy under a potential Trump administration could further impact global markets and gold's role as a hedge against volatility.

Today's trading strategy for goldWe witnessed history once again. Gold broke through a new high. Some people are feeling the joy of victory, while some are losing sleep all night due to losing their accounts. And I chose to exit in a timely manner and watch the main players' performance. This round of washing the market is really wonderful. It's obvious that it was carefully planned. Those who went long don't dare to be greedy in taking profits, and those who went short will suffer losses time and time again. For such an extremely unstable market, we need to stay calm and rational. Today is Friday, and we should reduce the number of transactions. After the key resistance level of 3060 for gold was broken through, it has transformed into support. The upward gap has been opened. Currently, we can't accurately determine the resistance position. We can only pay attention to the range of 3090-3100. The short-term trading range can be within the interval of 3060-3090. Today's trading strategy for gold: xauusd buy@3055-3060 tp:3075-3085 Currently, my account balance has grown from an initial $40,000 to $1M in profits.

Short on XAU USDWe can see gold has been on a ridiculous bullish run given all the uncertainty in the market. I believe if this continues we can see further upside - however I am going out on a limb to say this weekly candle will either brush the 3090 level or close as red. I have entered short positions via market order (in the royal blue colour) and have also set limit orders for shorts all the way up to 3129 (in the lighter blue colour). This analysis can definitely be wrong but I believe the market has made 2 drastically massive moves in the last 2 days which are somewhat unwarranted (yes gold is bullish but last 2 days have hit highs of 40-50 dollar moves. Let's see what the market bring tomorrow with ADP Non-Farm Employment data and also President Trump speaking later in the evening in the US. I have mapped out important levels using the Fibonacci tool and also psychological level of 3100. Key levels Short entries starting from 3119 - Set another order every dollar above all the way to 3129 Stop loss 3136 is my stop loss for this trade - If 3130 is broken with volume then I believe that we may push higher (If this happens likely the trade will be stopped out) Take Profit 3075 is the final TP area (0.5 Fib level using last 2 week high + low) - Given gold is in such a bullish phase it is foolish to hold onto shorts in my opinion (as we can see from the chart typically these bottoms are bought up and can be evidenced by the long candle wicks) - 3090 will be where I start to scale out of this position and adjust SL levels

XAUUSD:Adhere to the strategy of selling at high levelsI have consistently adhered to the strategy of shorting gold. Today, after the gold price spiked upwards, it showed a pattern of being under pressure. The price reached a peak of 3149 and then pulled back. After fluctuating during the U.S. trading session, it continued to decline. Currently, it has broken below the intraday demarcation level of 3120, which in the short term indicates that the bullish trend has temporarily come to an end, and a retracement and adjustment trend has started. This is also the risk that has been repeatedly highlighted. One should not be blindly carried away by the bullish sentiment and should always maintain a sense of reverence for the market. In the early morning, when the price tested the resistance level around 3135, short positions could be initiated. Now, the price has plummeted rapidly to the resistance level of 3100. It is estimated that most long positions have been stopped out, but we have still achieved the take-profit. In the subsequent trading, focus on the resistance level around 3130. If this level is not breached, one can continue to chase short positions. XAUUSD Trading Strategy: sell@3130 TP:3110-3100

XAUUSD SHORTXAUUSD short again, 9yr high for Gold and still holding on to my shorts. another day, another entry. Setting my position at 3138 // TP 3000 SL 3238 A lil discouraged with the current rallies, however, this is what trading is like, you take your L's, gather your emotion, recalculate and execute again(when you're less emotional). Sticking to my Short positions because I believe that this will reverse, it may take a while but im willing to wait. Setting my TP to my previous target to cover previous losses and SL a lil bit further to secure my positions. This isnt a trading or financial advice but my personal trading plan. Let's see how this trade rolls. Day 14of100 L:5 W:1
