Gold rises strongly and bulls restart!Gold technical analysis: From a technical point of view, the daily line rose on Monday, showing an absolutely strong positive state. Normally, the daily cycle rises and we can see that the upper Bollinger track is near 3500, so there is a lot of room above, and we should pay attention to the continuation of this wave. The 4-hour cycle still needs a wave of strength, and it needs to go out of a big rise before it can open the upper Bollinger track and form an absolute unilateral strength. Therefore, although it is clearly bullish for the time being, there is also a certain possibility of adjustment. At present, the support of the 4-hour cycle is near 3330. If there is a chance of a decline, we can follow the bullish trend.
On the whole, the short-term operation strategy for gold today is to focus on buying on pullbacks and shorting on rebounds. The short-term focus on the upper side is the 3415-3420 line of resistance, and the short-term focus on the lower side is the 3330-3350 line of support.
Short order strategy:
Strategy 1: Short 20% of the gold position in batches when it rebounds to around 3415-3420, stop loss 6 points, target around 3390-3380, and look at the 3360 line if it breaks;
Long order strategy:
Strategy 2: Long 20% of the gold position in batches when it pulls back to around 3350-3352, stop loss 6 points, target around 3380-3400, and look at the 3420 line if it breaks;
Gold – Bulls in Control, but Watch Key Support Gold remains extremely volatile. After finding support around 3200 at the beginning of the month, the price surged nearly 2500 pips within just three trading days, reaching above 3400.
Currently, the price has pulled back and has tested the 3360 zone over night– a former resistance turned support.
Two Scenarios to Watch:
- Bullish Case: If 3360 holds, bulls could push for a retest of the 3500 zone.
- Bearish Case: A clear break below 3360 would confirm a lower high, potentially opening the door for a deeper correction back to 3270.
For now, I’m on the sidelines, waiting for more clarity around this critical support.

GOLD (XAUUSD): Trading Plan BEFORE FOMC
Gold bounced yesterday, as I predicted.
Today, we see a retest of a broken daily resistance
that turned into support after a breakout.
BEFORE FED Rate Decision today, there is another opportunity
to buy Gold:
I see a double bottom pattern on an hourly time frame.
Bullish violation of its neckline and an hourly candle close above
3394 will provide a strong intraday confirmation.
It will push the prices at least to 3429 level.

The latest ideas on gold.Gold prices are still in a long-term bullish trend, and recent operations still maintain the idea of buying on dips; in the medium term, it may fluctuate at a high level, and mid-term operations need to be treated with caution. With the short-term rise in the European session, gold is waiting for a decline to go long.
A failure to hold $3000...NO...
Gold has NOT properly tested $3000 yet. Does it HAVE to be tested? Of course not.
I have outlined TWO bullish scenarios.
A failure to hold $3000 (or the 12 month sma) opens up a more nefarious type of correction. See 2008 where the 36 month sma got retested.
XAUUSD H4 Outlook – Monday, May 12, 2025Short-Term Bias: Bullish retracement toward premium zones
Structure: CHoCH confirmed at 3284 → forming potential bullish leg inside retracement
🔍 Recent Price Action (H4 Insight):
Clear CHoCH on H4 above 3292 → short-term structure flipped bullish.
Last impulsive leg pushed price into the 3330–3345 zone before rejecting slightly — signs of near-term resistance.
EMA5 and EMA21 are crossing upward, with price trying to retest EMA21 for a bounce.
Next H4 candle closure is critical — either holds 3290 for continuation or re-tests deeper zone.
📌 Key H4 Zones
Zone / Level Description
3380–3395 🔺 H4 FVG + OB zone – major near-term premium resistance (also Daily level)
3340–3345 🔁 H4 internal resistance – Friday top, low-volume gap area
3314–3318 🔁 Micro H4 imbalance – intraday fill zone
3284–3292 ✅ H4 CHoCH + OB – current bullish base, critical to hold
3250–3265 🔵 Deep demand – final intraday bounce zone before HTF demand
These levels will be your H4 battle zones — where price is likely to bounce, reverse, or accelerate depending on confirmation.
🔁 Potential Flow on Monday:
Bullish scenario:
If price holds 3284–3292 → intraday targets = 3318 → 3340 → 3380.
Clean structure = higher low + EMA support confluence.
Bearish scenario:
If price loses 3284 → could test 3250–3265. Only below this would invalidate current H4 bullish flow.
⚠️ Confluence Check:
EMAs: EMA5 crossing up through EMA21 → short-term bullish momentum building
Liquidity: Buy-side above 3345 → price may attempt sweep if supported
FVGs: Still unfilled gaps between 3314 and 3380 → magnet zones for bullish flow
CHoCH: Valid on 3284 → first HL attempt happening now
🧠 H4 Summary (for May 12):
Type Zone Reaction Potential
Resistance 3380–3395 Strong rejection possible
3340–3345 May slow price if volume weak
Support 3284–3292 Critical bullish structure zone
3250–3265 Breaker block zone (last bounce before HTF demand)
💬 Final Word to the Community:
Gold may have paused its moon mission at 3500, but the engines are refueling. Monday’s battle will be all about 3284 — hold it, and bulls might just take flight toward 3380. Lose it, and we buckle in for a deeper dip.
🟡 Whether you’re team buy-the-dip or wait-for-the-fade… stay sharp, stay patient, and always follow structure.

Gold's Symmetrical Triangle Near Break – Support Test Imminent!Gold ( OANDA:XAUUSD ) moved as I expected in my previous post and attacked the Support zone($3,282-$3,245) and Support lines for the second time . The question is, can Gold break the Support zone($3,282-$3,245) and Support lines or not!?
Please stay with me .
Gold is moving between Support zone($3,282-$3,245) and Resistance zone($3,386-$3,357) again . In fact, it can be said that Gold has been moving in a range for the past 5-6 days .
From a Classical Technical Analysis perspective, Gold appears to be forming a Symmetrical Triangle Pattern. A break of either line could indicate the next direction for Gold, but since the Symmetrical Triangle Pattern is a Continuation Pattern , the lower line is more likely to break .
In terms of Elliott Wave Theory analysis , it seems that we still have to wait for the next five downwaves .
------------------------------------------
Today, important U.S. data — JOLTS Job Openings and CB Consumer Confidence — will be released.
Let’s quickly review their potential impact on Gold:
JOLTS Job Openings :
If the number comes lower than expected , it signals a weakening labor market, increasing the chances of a dovish Fed → Bullish for Gold .
If the number is stronger than expected , it indicates a robust labor market, pushing the Fed to stay hawkish → Bearish for Gold .
CB Consumer Confidence :
A drop in consumer confidence reflects economic worries , driving demand for safe-haven assets like Gold → Bullish .
A rise in consumer confidence shows economic strength, reducing the appeal of Gold → Bearish .
Historical Impact :
Both indices have caused strong intraday moves in Gold recently, especially if the figures surprise the market.
Summary :
Weak JOLTS and low Confidence → Gold bullish
Strong JOLTS and high Confidence → Gold bearish
Be prepared for high volatility during the releases. Always manage your risk carefully!
------------------------------------------
I expect Gold to attack the Support zone($3,282-$3,245) and Support lines for at least the third time , and if it breaks, the next target could be $3,223 .
Note: If Gold can move above $3,393, we can expect more pumps and maybe make a new All-Time High(ATH).

Gold making triangle shape in 4H chart- BearishGold is making triangle shape in 4H chart that will possibly be bearish sign.
Gold awaits Fed / Buy every dipTechnical analysis: Wednesday’s session Inverted Hammer practically took Gold nowhere as Hourly 1 chart remained ranged within Higher High’s Upper and Lower zone, closing out last and this week on an expected positive note. The Monthly (#1M) candle remains on decent gains (# +11.57%) and the last two sessions on the second Highest Volume throughout April - May (this is translated to Gold’s cyclical behavior which I spotted lately when #2-High Volumed sessions are delivered, strong move follows). Despite the Higher High’s, it is clear that since the #3,400.80 local High’s, Gold undergoes a consolidation phase with equal demand and supply, which according to previous models is an Resistance zone preparation for the next leg Lower or Higher regarding Weekly chart (#1W). I remain idle until Fed announcement while Buying every dip last #2-session horizon.
#XAUUSD: Price to go beyond $3650 to $3700 around 3500 pips moveThe XAUUSD price is moving nicely as we had predicted in our previous analysis. Both of our analyses have hit the take-profit target, and we are likely to see more bullish momentum continue in the coming time. There are two areas where price could move or reverse. Both targets have a long-term view, which means we are talking about a possible swing move that will take time to complete. Stop-loss and intraday target and position can be taken based on your own analysis and overview. Strong fundamentals are needed for price to reach our designated target area.
Good luck and trade safely. Trading financial instruments like gold and other markets brings extreme risk and can be severe if the risk is not managed correctly.
We are sharing our bias here, but it does not guarantee that the move will happen as described.
Once the trade is activated, you can set two targets. You can choose your own take-profit based on your analysis and trade management.
Good luck and trade safely! 😊

Gold: The Start Of The C Wave (Extreme Danger!)After the FED announces their business Gold (XAUUSD) is likely to crash-down and hard.
I will support my statement with data coming from this chart.
The crash doesn't necessarily need to happen instantly. My idea is that we are witnessing a classic ABC correction in Elliott Wave Theory terminology. Let's dive in.
» Trading volume peaked in early April and has been dropping considerably.
» The ATH session ended as a very strong bearish (reversal) signal.
» There is a strong bearish divergence with the RSI. The RSI peaked February 2025 while Gold (XAU) peaked recently. Here is the chart:
Currently, Gold is showing a bounce until the resumption of the corrective bearish move.
Gold is set to move lower based on my interpretation of this chart. Approach with caution, or, go SHORT. You can't go wrong by shorting the top/resistance. Sell at resistance, buy at support.
Namaste.
Gold operation strategyFrom the 4-hour analysis, the support below is around 3300-08. If it does not break, continue to be bullish. Pay attention to the short-term suppression of 3360-66 above. If the daily level stabilizes above this position, continue to maintain the low-multiple rhythm.
Gold operation strategy:
1. Go long when gold falls back to 3320-25, and cover long positions when it falls back to 3300-10, stop loss 3297, target 3355-3360, and continue to hold if it breaks;
sell zone is hereThe price has been in the sell zone. I am using the modified Fiboretracement. The price has shown strength to go down. Now the price is performing a pullback. If the price rises to the cutloss level, then we will cutloss. We have done the analysis, the rest we will wait to see what will happen.
XAU/USD Analysis: Chart Indicates Elevated VolatilityXAU/USD Analysis: Chart Indicates Elevated Volatility
The XAU/USD chart shows that the ATR (Average True Range) indicator has reached its highest level in several weeks, signalling increased market volatility.
In addition, trading activity is being fuelled by heightened geopolitical tensions, now including an escalation of the conflict between India and Pakistan.
The price action analysis of the precious metal also provides valuable insight, highlighting the ongoing battle between supply and demand.
Technical Analysis of the XAU/USD Chart
On 23 April, we noted a sharp shift in sentiment after the price of XAU/USD peaked around $3,500.
Gold price fluctuations today suggest continued bearish pressure above $3,400, leading to a downward reversal at peak B, which sits below the previous high at A.
This forms the basis for outlining a descending channel and suggests that bears may attempt to keep the price within its boundaries. On the other hand, the $3,333 level was decisively broken by a wave of buying (shown with a blue arrow), and a bullish “cup and handle” pattern is emerging in the background — it is possible that, as part of the May rally, bulls may try to surpass peak B.
Whatever the outcome, elevated volatility appears likely to persist — especially with the US Federal Reserve’s interest rate decision due today at 21:00 GMT+3, followed by Jerome Powell’s press conference at 21:30.

Market Analysis: Gold Dips FurtherMarket Analysis: Gold Dips Further
Gold price started a fresh decline below $3,300.
Important Takeaways for Gold Price Analysis Today
- Gold price climbed higher towards the $3,350 zone before there was a sharp decline against the US Dollar.
- A key bearish trend line is forming with resistance near $3,270 on the hourly chart of gold at FXOpen.
Gold Price Technical Analysis
On the hourly chart of Gold at FXOpen, the price climbed above the $3,250 resistance. The price even spiked above $3,300 before the bears appeared.
A high was formed near $3,352 before there was a fresh decline. There was a move below the $3,300 support level. The bears even pushed the price below the $3,250 support and the 50-hour simple moving average.
It tested the $3,200 zone. A low has formed near $3,203 and the price is now showing bearish signs. There was a minor recovery wave above the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3,352 swing high to the $3,203 low.
However, the bears are active below $3,270. Immediate resistance is near $3,270. There is also a key bearish trend line forming with resistance near $3,270.
The next major resistance is near the $3,295 zone and the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $3,352 swing high to the $3,203 low. The main resistance could be $3,352, above which the price could test the $3,400 resistance. The next major resistance is $3,500.
An upside break above the $3,500 resistance could send Gold price toward $3,550. Any more gains may perhaps set the pace for an increase toward the $3,620 level.
Initial support on the downside is near the $3,240 level. The first major support is near the $3,225 level. If there is a downside break below the $3,225 support, the price might decline further. In the stated case, the price might drop toward the $3,205 support.

The bull market ends and gold continues to fallGold is currently trading around $3310, facing strong resistance near the )$3320–$3330) zone after a sharp upward move. I am supporting a SELL bias, anticipating a potential rejection from resistance and a move to the downside.
📈Key Resistance:$3330 A key level where I expect sellers to step in.
📈Major Resistance Zone: $3330–$3340 – If broken, further upside is possible, but this zone remains a strong barrier for now.
📉Bearish Targets:
📉Target 1: $3290 Initial support and short-term profit zone.
📉Target 2: $3264 Deeper pullback level.
📉Target 3: $3242 Final target before reaching major demand.
📉Support Area: $3220 $3210
A high-probability demand zone where buyers may defend the level and sellers could take profit.
📊Outlook: I remain bearish as long as price holds below $3330. A clear rejection from this area would strengthen the bearish case. A break above $3340 would invalidate the setup and shift focus to the bullish side.
I know that many people are losing their accounts or opinions due to the sudden rise and fall of their accounts. If you are a novice or you need some free professional advice, please contact me. I hope to help you.
It’s the right time to go shortLast week, gold came under pressure at the key resistance of 3356 and then fluctuated downwards. The market jumped short and opened low, directly breaking through the support to a low of 3259, and the daily line continued the downward trend. The current market is in the daily level adjustment stage, but the downward momentum is strong and the risk of breaking continues to accumulate. From a technical perspective, 3280 constitutes a short-term upward resistance. If the rebound is blocked, you can still choose to arrange short orders; there is strong support near 3240 below, and it is necessary to pay attention to whether this position can be effectively broken to confirm the accelerated decline. On the news side, the easing of the Sino-US tariff situation has weakened the market's risk aversion sentiment. In addition, the bullish momentum of gold has been exhausted after the previous consecutive rises, and the recent weak and volatile pattern has become prominent.
Gold recommendation: short near 3280-3290, target 3270-3260.
GOLD WEEKLY CHART MID/LONG TERM ROUTE MAPHey Everyone,
Quick update on our weekly chart idea, it's been playing out beautifully, helping us track the move down and catch the move back up.
The weekly chart structure is unfolding in line with prior analysis. Price action reached the upper boundary of the ascending Goldturn channel and temporarily broke above it; however, the EMA5 remained confined within the channel, validating the upper trendline as dynamic resistance.
A sustained EMA5 breakout above the channel would have confirmed a potential continuation of the breakout. Currently, price is consolidating within the Goldturn channel, with the 3189 level acting as immediate support. The channel half line of the channel may serve as a stronger swing support area, though price may not retest this level immediately. As the channel continues its upward trajectory, the midline will also rise, potentially aligning with price in future upward movements.
This is the beauty of our Goldturn channels, drawn using weighted averages instead of pure price action. This unique approach helps us clearly identify fake-outs and real breakouts, cutting out much of the noise that usually confuses traders.
Moving forward, we’ll focus on smaller timeframes (1H and 4H) to buy dips off the weighted Goldturns, aiming for clean 30–40 pip moves. Ranging markets are perfect for this style, allowing us to capitalize on quick moves without getting caught in the chop of larger swings.
Thanks again for all your likes, comments, and follows, we really appreciate the support!
