Gold targets $3,475: Strong wave has not stoppedThe world gold price's uptrend continues to hold steady after a technical correction to the support zone around $3,336 - $3,369 (Fibonacci 0.5 - 0.618), coinciding with EMA34 on the H4 frame, showing that buying power is still dominant in the main trend. The price has now recovered to around $3,395/ounce and continues to maintain a strong uptrend pattern with the target of expanding to the $3,475 zone - the 100% Fibonacci level of the most recent uptrend. The convergence between the technical structure and macro news creates a solid foundation for the uptrend: safe-haven money continues to flow into gold amid geopolitical instability, a weakening USD and market sentiment worried about risks from US economic policy.
Comments from experts such as Sean Lusk and Christopher Vecchio also reinforce the bullish outlook, especially as speculative money and central bank buying have yet to show signs of cooling off. With the EMA34 and EMA89 maintaining a positive slope, the possibility of the price continuing to climb to the target area of $3,475 is very high, before a short-term correction to test the breakout zone may appear. In the short term, any correction to the $3,370–$3,390 area is seen as an opportunity to increase long positions following the trend.
XAUUSDG trade ideas
GOLD entering Bear MarketIf you look at RSI and Stochastic RSI across higher time frames—weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly—they're sitting at extreme overbought levels. Historically, similar conditions in 2008, 2011, and 2020 were followed by major corrections or long periods of sideways movement in gold.
Right now, all I see in the media is hype around buying gold, which often signals distribution—whales unloading positions onto retail. While overbought conditions don’t tell us exactly when a correction starts, they do suggest we’re not in a solid buying zone. In fact, we might be approaching a significant top.
GOLD TODAY OUTLOOKXAU/USD – 30-Minute Technical Setup
Gold has been gliding upward, respecting a clean ascending structure, printing higher highs with strength. But as price taps into the $3,242–$3,267 supply zone, momentum begins to fade.
A potential rejection here signals a structural shift. If the trendline breaks, we could see a clean move down toward the $3,176 demand zone, with $3,203 acting as soft interim support.
This setup reflects precision and patience , anticipating a transition from bullish strength to calculated bearish correction, with a balanced risk-to-reward approach.
Confirmation is very important.
Always use stoploss for your trade.
Always use proper money management and proper risk to reward ratio.

#XAUUSD 30M Technical Analysis Expected Move.
What if Kid Rock ran the Fed?Gold has broken above $3,400 for the first time, setting a new all-time high as investor confidence in the United States continues to decline.
Citi forecasts gold could reach $3,500 within the next three months. However, this projection might be underestimating Trump’s potential to further undermine confidence in the US.
On Monday, President Trump intensified pressure on Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, calling him a “major loser” and demanding immediate interest rate cuts. Last week the President said, "Powell's termination cannot come fast enough,".
A move to dismiss Powell would likely trigger significant market volatility. Markets generally view Powell as a stabilizing figure, and history shows that a less independent central bank is less effective at keeping inflation under control.
I think it might be fair to wonder what a Federal Reserve Chairman Kid Rock would do for the price of gold.
Gold prices hit resistance as they push higherGold prices continued to fluctuate this week. Last Thursday, gold prices stabilized and rebounded near $3,284, and remained strong after breaking through $3,300. During today's Asian session, gold prices repeatedly hit the 3,385 pressure level but failed. After retreating to around 3,369 and gaining support, they rebounded again to around 3,396. The current price faces technical repair needs, but the overall upward trend has not changed, and the probability of breaking through the $3,400 mark is still high. The support level of the retracement is focused on the Asian session low of 3369 US dollars and the 4-hour MA5 moving average of 3360 US dollars. You can arrange long orders on dips; the upper pressure focuses on the 3396-3400 line. After breaking through, you need to be alert to the pressure of the daily error band indicator of 3425-3430 US dollars. At present, you can go short at the rebound of 3395 in the short term. The general trend is still dominated by low and long.
Gold recommendation: Go short near the rebound of 3395-3400, stop loss 3405, target 3370, strict stop loss for large fluctuations
Gold operation: Go long near the retracement of 3370-3375, stop loss 3362, target 3400, strict stop loss for large fluctuations
Critical point at 1.68 Fib level Market Is on bullish streak without testing the previous BOS and liquidity volume gap it's hit the weekly target of 3400 Mark.
Now market is forming bearish diversion with rising wedge channel although we have Fib retracement level of 1.68 level at 3404-05.
If market gives closing above 3405 then 3430 on mark for TODAY.
On the other hand, without retesting the previous high is question for bulls.
If we got rejection at 3405 , market can drop to 3380 then 3365.
Overall im on bulls side
I wait for the Dips to buy again.

GOLD LONGGold have had some of the best days in the market due to plenty of reasons finding supports on the ATH 's something very casual for gold not impressed we expect prices to reach 3500 on no time liquidity being swept and institutes putting money to increase the value of gold.
We expect to see the value to find a resistance point on 3400 either 3450 , either way we have good support from news and other factors look for ur buy position traders <3
Gold: Is the end of the fifth wave of the daily correct or the eIf the wave count is correct, the last wave, the fifth wave, has reached its end, which is 61.8% of the third wave. If the wave count is not yet over in smaller trends in small time frames. However, if the market wants to continue to move up, then a correction will start from 3342 or 40. Of course, 3332 is also an important and valid area. But in the longer view, 3376 or 75 is the main target for price growth. Which is evident in the 4-hour time frame wave count. In my opinion, when the gold market opens, it will first have an upward movement and then it should be seen in which direction the selling pressure will be stronger.
Gold at it's Peak Now???Gold has pushed right though the HTF 0:1.618.
Now catching resistance at the 1:2.414 ratio band. If it pushes through this ratio, there is not much stopping it from hitting the upper 2.272 level.
If a correction were to start here (and it's about that time) this may be a clue that a rally up for crypto will begin soon, as this was this case for the last Gold correction that started in November 2024.

Gold could potentially retrace back into this identified fvgGold could potentially retrace back into this identified fair value gap (FVG), and if it respects this zone as a point of interest, we may see a bullish reaction. This reaction could serve as a catalyst for the market to resume its upward trend and possibly form a new higher high in the process.
Markets revolve around US-China, gold seeks new peakAs Powell's warnings about the impact of the trade war increased market volatility, U.S. stocks and the dollar fell sharply and gold prices hit new highs.
Powell warned that the central bank may have less flexibility to quickly mitigate the economic impact of President Donald Trump's trade war, comments that sent stocks lower on Wednesday.
Powell reiterated that the Fed is in no rush to cut interest rates and "would prefer to wait until the situation becomes clearer before considering an adjustment to the policy stance." He also acknowledged that the Fed could face a difficult situation where its two policy goals of price stability and maximum employment conflict, as Trump's tariff policies could push up U.S. inflation and slow economic growth.
Gold prices have risen nearly $700 an ounce, or nearly 28%, this year, driven by tariff disputes, expectations of interest rate cuts and strong central bank buying, outpacing the 27% gain in 2024.
Gold prices have continued to rise as the escalating trade war has raised concerns about a global recession. At the same time, the Trump administration is preparing to pressure other countries to limit trade with China in response to US tariffs in US-China trade talks.
US President Donald Trump on Tuesday ordered an investigation into possible tariffs on all critical minerals imported into the United States, marking a new escalation in his dispute with global trading partners and an effort to pressure China. The latest tensions between the world's two largest economies have affected the sentiment in the financial market in general, causing investors to turn to safe-haven assets such as gold.
However, a profit-taking session or positive developments in US-China trade relations could trigger a sell-off. Therefore, readers/traders need to closely monitor developments surrounding the trade war to make timely changes in their trading plans to suit the market context.
Technical outlook analysis of XAUUSD gold price
On the daily chart, gold continues to seek and renew all-time highs with an absolutely supported uptrend in the short, medium and long term.
In the long term, the price channel (a) will be set as the main trend with the main support from the EMA21, while in the short term, gold is still in an uptrend with support from the 0.382% Fibonacci extension levels and the 3,300USD whole price point right after that.
In terms of momentum, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) enters the overbought zone, a downward RSI below 80 will be considered a signal for a possible correction.
In the coming time, the trend and outlook of gold prices are still bullish, the declines should only be considered as short-term corrections.
But this note will be very important, in a market where assets (gold) are overbought, making them a bubble, any correction will cause serious selling sentiment. As it stands, we cannot know when the US-China trade war will cool down, and any positive developments around the trade war will trigger a sell-off in the gold market, which is traditionally considered a safe haven asset.
In the day, the bullish outlook for gold prices will be listed again by the following positions.
Support: 3,303 – 3,300 USD
Resistance: 3,337 – 3,371 USD
This is the end of the article, wishing readers a productive and happy working day
Intraday Price Target Outlook!Market Analysis – 30-Minute Chart Overview
Upon analysing the 15-minute chart, we observe that the price opened with a gap during the Asian session and is currently trading just below a descending trendline. There is a potential for a breakout above this trendline; however, I anticipate a rejection around the 3356 level, as highlighted on the chart.
If the price rejects from the 3356 resistance level, our first target would be 3305, followed by a second target at 3268.
Alternatively, it’s advisable to wait for the price to approach and react to the 3356 zone. Once rejection is confirmed, consider initiating a short position.
Risk Management Reminder:
Always prioritise capital protection. Trade with proper risk management in place.
Happy trading!
After gold hit a new high, it declined in the eveningToday, gold prices hit a new all - time high, reaching 3,357 in the short term. After a second test at 3,356, the market was mainly characterized by volatile pullbacks throughout the day. However, the overall trend remained strong, and the short - term volatility and adjustment might be for the purpose of building up momentum for further increases.👉👉👉
Recently, gold has set records again and again, and its huge fluctuations have tugged at the hearts of every investor. The market will be closed tomorrow. I hope everyone can really unwind, keep a good attitude, and have a pleasant holiday.🌞🌞🌞
Will gold still rise after correction? Market analysis referenceAnalysis of gold market trend:
Technical analysis of gold: Today in the Asian session, gold directly rushed to the 3357 line, continuing the previous upward trend. The spot gold price in the Asian session has once again hit a record high, breaking through $3350 for the first time. The US dollar index fell close to a three-year low, triggering a sharp rise in market risk aversion, pushing up gold prices. The current basic trend of gold rising has not changed, and the bulls are strong. However, from the perspective of time nodes, even if you are bullish today, you must pay attention to the adjustment space at any time. The Asian session hit a high and fell back, and the European session did not continue to rise but fluctuated and fell. Attention should be paid to the second bottoming out in the evening. In addition, the market will be closed tomorrow, Friday, and will not open normally until next Monday; therefore, today, Thursday, we must do a good job of risk prevention; such as short positions, such as adjusting positions, and so on.
In the short term, gold is now likely to start a large range of fluctuations again. The 1-hour inverted V trend has begun. Gold will either start a large range of fluctuations or make adjustments. If there is no support from bullish news in the short term, then the short-term gold bulls may be suppressed. Due to the rest tomorrow, do less and wait and see. Gold will be operated next week in combination with the news over the weekend. The recent market has been ups and downs, and I can finally take a good rest for three days to relax the tense atmosphere. The recent ups and downs of gold are like an electrocardiogram, which affects the hearts of everyone who pays attention to gold. It is mainly too active. Maybe you drink a sip of tea and smoke a cigarette, and gold goes back and forth for more than ten US dollars. So, don't be too bullish today. If you are bold, go short, and if you are prudent, just watch the show! Overall, today's short-term operation strategy for gold is mainly to go short on rebounds, and to go long on pullbacks. The short-term focus on the upper side is 3315-3320 resistance, and the short-term focus on the lower side is 3245-3285 support. Friends must keep up with the rhythm.
Gold operation strategy reference: short gold rebounds near 3315-3320, target near 3295-3285, and look at the 3245 line if it breaks.
Strategy 2: Go long on gold pullbacks near 3280-3285, target near 3305-3315, and look at the 3320 line if it breaks.
