Gold Intraday Trading Plan 7/7/2025As explained in my weekly post, I am bearish in gold this week. Currently in 4hrly TF, it's still bullish. I am watching closely at 3330 and 3345 levels.
If 3330 is broken, I will engage selling upon retest. Alternatively, I will sell on bearish signals from 3345. My target for today is 3300.

XAU/USD (Gold) Analysis : Structure analysis + Next Reversal📌 1. Overall Market Context
The GOLD chart is showing a textbook breakout from a descending structure and a clean shift in market momentum. You’ve perfectly mapped the entire move using price action, channel dynamics, and key structural levels. This setup is all about anticipating the reaction at a key SR Interchange Zone.
🛠️ 2. Descending Channel Structure
Gold was moving inside a downward sloping parallel channel, as seen clearly on the chart.
Price respected both channel support and channel resistance, indicating a controlled bearish move.
The tag “Channel Support” shows the final reaction before the breakout.
This pattern often signals a corrective phase, not a strong downtrend.
✅ 3. Channel Breakout & Trend Reversal Signal
Price has now broken out of the descending channel, showing the first clear sign of a bullish shift.
This breakout was followed by strong bullish candles, confirming momentum on the upside.
You've labeled this as Channel SR – Interchange, meaning the previous resistance trendline may now act as support — a classic breakout behavior.
📉 4. Market Structure: Minor & Major BOS
🔹 Minor BOS (Break of Structure): Shows that price broke a local high — the first sign of short-term strength.
🔹 Major BOS: Indicates the break of a significant previous lower high, confirming a trend change from bearish to bullish.
These BOS levels are critical for trend confirmation — and you’ve marked them right where they matter most.
🧠 5. Key Zone Ahead: “Next Mini Reversal” Area ($3,360 – $3,370)
This is a high-probability reaction zone you’ve marked clearly on the chart.
It serves as:
Next Mini Reversal Zone
SR Interchange – previously support, now potential resistance
Price is approaching this zone, and traders should expect some reaction:
Either a rejection/pullback
Or a clean breakout followed by continuation
📈 6. Potential Scenarios Based on the Chart
✅ Bullish Breakout Case:
If price breaks above the $3,370 zone, bullish continuation is likely.
Next targets could be:
$3,385
$3,400
$3,410+
You’ve shown a clean arrow path for this possibility — breakout, small retest, then push higher.
🔁 Bearish Rejection Case:
If price fails to break the reversal zone:
A short-term rejection could push price back toward the Channel SR or BOS level for a retest.
This would form a higher low, keeping the bullish structure intact.
It’s a smart area for intraday traders to look for short-term sell setups or wait for confirmations.
🔐 7. Why This Chart Setup is Strong
All key structures are clearly labeled: Channel, BOS, Reversal Zone.
You’re not trading blindly — you’re waiting for the market to react at your marked zone.
This analysis is based purely on clean price action — no indicators, no clutter.
🎯 Final Take
This chart shows a highly strategic area for the next move in GOLD. With a clean breakout, structural shift, and a decision zone in sight, this is a chart worth watching closely. Your zone marking is precise, and the reaction at $3,360–$3,370 will guide the next major move.
XAUUSD ShortMarket Structure
• Price has formed a clear lower high structure following the peak near 3360–3365.
• Subsequent highs (highlighted in blue circles) show consistent failure to break previous highs, indicating bearish momentum.
• The price is currently reacting from a well-defined supply zone (red box near 3325–3330), where selling pressure previously emerged.
Key Resistance Zones
• 3325–3330: This supply zone has held strong multiple times. Price failed to break above this area during the latest retest.
• 3340–3345: Previous support turned resistance, also aligns with a prior lower high.
• 3360–3365: Major resistance and recent swing high (bearish market invalidation point).
Support Zones to Target
• 3305.475: Minor support; price could consolidate here before further drop.
• 3280–3285: Key demand zone where price previously bounced.
• 3263.855: Major support level and likely final target in the short term if bearish move continues.
Confluences Supporting a Sell
• Series of lower highs (bearish structure).
• Strong supply zone rejection.
• Bearish engulfing candles around resistance.
• Clean liquidity sweep above prior highs followed by sharp rejections.
• Arrow on chart suggesting bearish projection.
Risk Consideration
• A break and strong close above 3335 would invalidate this bearish setup.
• Watch out for possible whipsaw behavior around 3305 zone before continuation.
XAU/USD (Gold) Bearish Outlook – H1/H4 Chart AnalysisGold is currently showing signs of weakness within a confirmed downtrend, forming lower highs and lower lows on the short-term charts. The price structure suggests continued bearish momentum as sellers maintain control beneath key resistance levels.
At present, a potential bearish opportunity is observed if price retraces near the 3320 zone, which aligns with a recent supply area and resistance in the ongoing downtrend. From this level, price action could continue its downward move in line with trend dynamics.
Entry Zone: Around 3320
Primary Target: 3300 (near-term support level)
Final Target: 3280 (extended target aligning with previous demand zone)
Invalidation/Stop Loss: Above 3340 (a break above this may invalidate the bearish bias)

GOLD: Strong Bearish Sentiment! Short!
My dear friends,
Today we will analyse GOLD together☺️
The market is at an inflection zone and price has now reached an area around 3,311.90 where previous reversals or breakouts have occurred.And a price reaction that we are seeing on multiple timeframes here could signal the next move down so we can enter on confirmation, and target the next key level of 3,301.31..Stop-loss is recommended beyond the inflection zone.
❤️Sending you lots of Love and Hugs❤️

XAU / USD 1 Hour ChartHello traders. Although I did not take the trade, we can see that my area to watch and looking for scalp buy / sells from the $3300 area was spot on. It's early in the week and gold usually takes the first few days of the week carving out it potential paths. This is my last chart for today. I will post again later on. Let's see what gold does on the 4 hour candle. Be well and trade the trend. Shout out to Big G.
GOLD - SHORT TO $2,800 (UPDATE)I would like to see the 4H candle close strongly ABOVE this current resistance zone & turn it into support, before I can confidently say it'll shoot up to $3,400 next. For all we know, price might reject this resistance again & shoot back down, but that is looking unlikely right now.
Let's see how the weekly candle closes tonight.
Gold delivering excellent Scalp opportunitiesGold has tested #3,330.80 Resistance and got rejected many times as I firstly Bought Gold from #3,322.80 towards #3,330.80 Resistance zone in extension. Later on, I have added Selling order on #3,327.80 to the downside and closed it on #3,320.80. I have engaged Buying order on #3,318.80 Support once again and added more Buying orders on #3,321.80 / closed all before #3,327.80 and ultimately Sold again on #3,327.80 towards #3,318.80. Excellent Scalping opportunities throughout yesterday's session.
Technical analysis: Since the #3,318.80 breakout point was not compromised, the Price-action Naturally spiked to the #3,327.80 - #3,330.80 Resistance zone mentioned on the previous commentary. Based on the #5-session Higher High’s sequence, this zone is the new local High’s (very possible that Price-action is pricing a Top here, temporary or not) and as both the Hourly 4 chart and Daily chart are Neutral to a very great extent and does not look so good for Buyers (Gold is already critically Overbought within #3,340's, I should Naturally expect a correction within #1 - #3 session horizon. The Technical answer is the Hourly 1 chart’s Support near #3,327.80, which has been always touched after every Higher High’s rejection and holding as flood gate towards #3,322.80 and #3,318.80 wall of Support zones. Gold is kept Higher on pure Fundamental gradient and weak DX (on a parabolic downtrend) but this state has to end sooner or later and Gold should continue it’s Bearish trend and connect with the fair Technical Price around #3,300.80 mark or less. The turmoil with the Inflation in U.S. causing Investors turn to capital from riskier assets for protection (safe-havens in High demand such as Gold), thus causing Gold to gain value. Regardless, DX is the strongest correlation driving Gold at the moment. Fundamentally though Gold is Bullish and cannot overcome such patterns as it is overreacting to every DX and Bond Yields movements.
My position: I am currently Buying #3,332.80 Bottom (third Scalp this morning all closed on #3,335.80) and holding last one until #3,340.80 ideally and with that regardless what happens on U.S. opening, I will call it for the session and comfortably take early weekend break since I am Highly satisfied with my returns. Enjoy the Profits and have a great weekend!
Gold: Market analysis and strategy on July 11Gold technical analysis
Daily chart resistance: 3375, support: 3285
Four-hour chart resistance: 3360, support: 3310
One-hour chart resistance: 3345, support: 3324.
For the current market trend, pay attention to the resistance of 3340-3345 on the upper side during the day. This is the high point concentration area that has suppressed the upward trend of gold prices many times in the early stage. If it is treated as a volatile market, sell at highs in the 3340~3345 range. If it breaks through 3345, it may trigger stop-loss buying and continue to rise to the 3355~3360 area.
The key support below is still at 3310, but from the 1-hour chart, the trend is rising in steps, and the short-term support is around 3324. Buy back here. After the Asian market was blocked near the previous high of 3345, it entered a short-term correction, and the long and short saws. It is suitable for fast in and out, and follow up and buy after breaking through 3345.

GOLD UPDATE – Key Supply Zone Reached📊 GOLD UPDATE – Key Supply Zone Reached
Price is currently reacting from the 3340–3341 supply zone. If this level fails to hold, next target will be the upper zone at 3350–3358.
🟥 Active Supply Zone: 3340–3341
🎯 Next Supply Zone Above: 3350–3358
🟩 Demand Support Below: 3310–3313
This is a crucial area — watch for rejection or clean breakout for directional bias.
XAUUSD BUY OPPORTUNITY!🟢 Current Trade Setup (Buy Position)
Entry: Around 3,299.46
Take Profit (TP): 3,338.87
Stop Loss (SL): 3,285.64
Risk-Reward Ratio: ~1:3 ➜ This is a favorable R:R setup.
Key Zone - Supply Area
Marked as SUPPLY H4 (Higher Time Frame 4H supply zone).
Price Range: ~3,350 to 3,368+
This is where sellers may aggressively enter the market.
A potential reversal zone—watch price action closely when it reaches there.
🔸 Recent Price Action
A strong sell-off occurred before this setup.
Price then formed a sharp wick and a potential demand reaction around 3,285–3,290.
Price is now attempting a bullish recovery (possibly a liquidity grab followed by accumulation).
🔸 Bullish Signal
The recent structure shows a double bottom / demand reaction.
Entry aligns with the bottom of the move, offering good positioning.
📌 What to Watch
Intraday Buyers’ Momentum:
If volume supports upward momentum, it could push price toward TP.
Reaction at 3,320–3,340:
Minor intraday resistance zones before the TP.
If price hesitates, consider partial profit-taking.
Rejection from Supply H4:
TP is placed just below the H4 supply zone — smart take.
Avoid extending TP unless there's a strong breakout candle.
🧠 Summary
✅ Strong R:R setup.
✅ Clean reaction from demand.
🚨 Supply H4 zone ahead — expect resistance near 3,350–3,360.
📈 As long as price holds above ~3,290, the setup is valid.
Gold Price Setup: Bullish Continuation or Rejection? 🧠 Chart Analysis (XAU/USD – 1H):
Key Structure Highlights:
CHoCH (Change of Character) zones marked both up and down indicate a battle between bulls and bears.
Recent bullish CHoCH followed by a fair value gap (FVG) retest suggests potential continuation to the upside.
Price recently bounced strongly from demand zone, shown by the green arrows and strong candle reaction.
Ichimoku Cloud:
Price is trying to break back above the Kumo (cloud), a sign of bullish momentum building.
However, resistance is still present with the Kijun and Tenkan lines converging.
FVG (Fair Value Gap):
The current price is attempting to fill and break above the FVG zone.
A successful breakout above this area confirms bullish intention.
Fibonacci Levels:
Price is hovering around the 0.5 - 0.618 retracement zone, often a strong reversal or continuation point.
Upside targets lie near the 0.786 retracement (3352) and ultimate target at 3391, a major resistance level.
Risk Management:
Trade setup shows an excellent Risk:Reward ratio.
Stop-loss placed just below the last structure low.
Potential downside to 3290–3258 if breakout fails.
🟢 Possible Next Move:
Bullish Scenario: If price clears the FVG and breaks above 3353, expect continuation to 3391.
Bearish Rejection: If rejected at FVG/0.618 level, watch for a drop back to 3290 or even 3259.
XAU/USD elliot wave countOANDA:XAUUSD
📊 Elliott Wave Analysis (Overview)
🔹 Primary Structure: We're currently moving from white Wave 3 into white Wave 4.
🔹 Wave 4 Breakdown:
So far, Wave 4 is developing as a typical ABC corrective pattern.
Waves (A) and (B) (in brackets) have already been formed.
🔹 Wave (B) Internal Structure:
Wave (B) is unfolding as an impulse: we’ve completed Bracket 1, Bracket 2, and we’re now on the way into Bracket 3.
Within Bracket 3, we've already built a yellow Wave 1 and a potential yellow Wave 2.
🔹 Current Market Condition:
For the bearish scenario to stay valid, we must remain below the red trendline.
If we break above the red trendline, then yellow Wave 2 would likely extend higher and complete itself inside the red Fibonacci zone — making the correction deeper.
🎯 Target Zones:
Targets for yellow Wave 3 and the broader Bracket 3 are already displayed on the chart.
However, these targets can still be adjusted depending on how price unfolds in the coming sessions.
Excellent yesterday's sessionAs discussed throughout my yesterday's session commentary: "My position: In my opinion I need to stay on Hourly 4 time-frame for us and the potential break-out to the downside since Hourly 4 chart remains Bearish (never Swing Buy while #H4 is Bearish) on logarithmic scale, hence on limited upside. My expectation is that we still have one (minor) rebound left which will be the final Selling attempt / entry towards #3,300.80 benchmark, if Buyers manage to reverse this, #3,352.80 and #3,400.80 marks are Targets to monitor / which I will pursue with set of Scalp and Swing orders. Trade accordingly as I Bought #3,302.80 with set of aggressive Scalp orders."
I have Bought Gold with aggressive Scalps from #3,297.80 - #3,302.80 zone, firstly closing my orders as near as #3,310.80. Later on, did #4 more Scalps from #3,308.80 - #3,313.80 / closing all as near as #3,322.80 as I announced that Gold will certainly recover as per above (cca #171.000 EUR Profit using #100 Lots).
Technical analysis: Ranged Price-action came as no Technical surprise as Price-action remains in Rectangle on a combination of Fundamental pressure and Technical necessity for a Lower Low’s extension. It is closely related to currency Volatility on DX (and the economy related Fed’s talks and Tariffs agreements of utmost importance) as the Price-action in near equilibrium with DX (# -0.27%) also on Weekly scale and even if the pair completes full scale reversal, Gold should stay under Selling pressure. On the Short-term side, there is an clear Resistance and Support zone, limiting Sellers advances to it’s maximum thru Fundamental side (every early to late U.S. session revives Buyers on the aftermath). Gold should already Trade widely below #3,300.80 psychological barrier, but now Resistance tests seems more likely to develop and showcase Short-term Buyers presence. Hourly 4 chart points that Lower High’s Lower zone is near and Resisting the Price-action at #3,334.80 - #3,342.80 which makes it an possible Hourly 1 chart’s Ascending Channel variance - typical Target of similar sequence if break-out is delivered includes #3,348.80 - #3,352.80 on Short-term. In extension - I will advance with extreme care ahead of the most significant macroeconomic events of the week and since my model leans more to the Bullish side and Fundamentally Gold may soar, I will remain Scalping Gold as using Swing orders practically is worthless on such market.
My position: I will keep Buying and Selling Gold only with my aggressive Scalp orders from my key entry and reversal points.
