XAU USD 4 Hour ChartHello traders. I was away from the charts and missed the perfect trade that was posted earlier today. So as of now I am not taking any trades today but I marked the new area of interest for potential scalp buy / sell trades. Always do your own research and stick to a trading plan. BIg G gets a shout out. Honestly, I can see gold pushing back down towards the $3k area, where I would look for a possible swing trade. Happy Wednesday.
XAUUSDK trade ideas
Perfectly hold the pullback and continue to buy.Gold opened at around 3240 and then rushed to 3252 and then retreated. In the evening, we also gave a short position near the rebound to 3240. After all, there is a lot of pressure from above, and the technical side also needs to repair the strategy, so we gave a short position entry near 3237-38, and the target is 3215. As of the retracement, it reached the lowest point near 3206, which also successfully reached our target position. Today's Asian session high and retreat is completely a technical adjustment. It bottomed out and rebounded yesterday, with an increase of more than one hundred US dollars. The technical bulls are weak and need to pull back. This is why I gave the short position. Be a steady trader.
The gold market showed a V-shaped reversal pattern of bottoming out and rebounding yesterday. The daily line closed with a hammer-shaped positive line with an extremely long lower shadow, indicating that the support below is strong, but the overall high-level oscillation pattern is still maintained. Technical indicators show that short-term correction pressure still exists: the stochastic indicator is blunted at a high level, the MACD double-line dead cross is downward, and the Bollinger band opens downward. The gold price is likely to fluctuate around the middle and lower tracks.
The 4-hour level oscillates to the short side, and the 3200 line becomes the watershed between long and short. If it effectively falls below this level, the shorts will regain the initiative; on the contrary, the longs need to break through the strong resistance area of 3265-3270 to reverse the decline. At the close of the weekly line, the market has a demand for a restorative decline. If it falls below the 3200 integer mark, the target below will look at the 3180-3170 area. Focus on the effectiveness of the 3265-3270 resistance and the strength of the 3200 support, and be alert to the violent fluctuations in the closing market on Friday.
Gold recommendation: Go long when it falls back to around 3215-3205. Target 3230-40-50 first line
Channel Breakout with Bullish Reversal on XAUUSD (15M)"
Price moved within a clean descending channel and eventually broke out with momentum. After forming a strong reversal candle near previous support, a long position was considered. Volume increase confirms potential buyer interest. Setup aims for upper imbalance / liquidity zones. Chart shown on 15-minute timeframe.
Perfect grasp of key points Insight into market trendsWith the downgrade of the U.S. credit rating and the recent weak U.S. economic data, market expectations for a U.S. interest rate cut have increased. The U.S. dollar index has plummeted and is once again facing the 100 mark. Risk aversion sentiment has rebounded again, and gold has once again been sought after. It opened higher in the Asian session. However, we have mentioned the repetitiveness of sentiment many times recently, so we remind you not to chase the rise too much. We remind you to short near 3245, long at 3209, and short again near 3245. Both long and short positions are very accurate, giving perfect entry opportunities and successfully taking profits.
Judging from the current trend, gold is under pressure again in the European session near 3248, and the US session has fallen back. The short-term strength has turned into a wide sweep again. Focus on the gains and losses of 3230. If it falls below or looks at the gap area of 3206-3203, go long if it falls back and does not break. The upper pressure is still focused on the area near 3253-60. Short-term fluctuations are increasing. If there is any adjustment, we will notify you in time.
Operation suggestion: Go long in gold near 3206-03, look at 3230 and 3252!

XAU / USD 4 Hour ChartHello traders. I see gold had a nice push up over the last day. Saying that, I have marked my area of interest for possible scalp short/ long trade(s). This is just speculation for now, and I am waiting to see what the overnight sessions do. I am leaning more towards a push down today, let's see how it plays out. BIg G gets my thanks.

"Gold Short Opportunity: Clean 1:4 RR Setup from Resistance"I’m eyeing a short trade on Gold (XAUUSD) with a high reward-to-risk opportunity.
Entry: 3225
Target: 3171.4
Stop Loss: 3238.4
Risk/Reward Ratio: 1:4
The price is approaching a key resistance zone, and I expect a bearish rejection. A clean risk-defined setup makes this trade attractive. Watching for confirmation via candle patterns or volume spikes before full entry.
This is not financial advice — just sharing my view. Good luck and trade safe!
XAUUSD 30 MINUTEThe chart you've shared shows a bearish rising wedge pattern on the 30-minute Gold (XAU/USD) chart. Here's a breakdown of the setup:
Pattern: Rising wedge – typically bearish, especially after a downtrend.
Entry Point: Marked near the top of the wedge, around 3205.
Projection: The price is expected to break down from the wedge and fall toward the support zone near 3160.
Stop Loss: Indicated just above the wedge, near 3218.
Target: Around 3160, offering a good risk-to-reward ratio.
This setup suggests a short trade based on technical analysis. The idea is to enter the trade at the breakdown from the wedge for a potential move lower.
Let me know if you'd like the trade parameters (entry, stop loss, take profit) calculated or a follow-up chart.
Gold Late-Session Trading Strategy, May 16📊Before the US market today, the gold price rebounded rapidly after falling to 3154, indicating that there is obvious buying support at this position. The first wave of rebound quickly pulled up to 3185, with a unilateral increase of more than 30 US dollars, and the rebound strength is considerable.
📊It should be noted that this rapid rise is often accompanied by emotional fluctuations and is not suitable for blindly chasing the rise. We still adhere to the principle of "more watching and less action", and should be more cautious in short-term operations, and do not try swing trading easily. If you already have a position, it is recommended to seize the existing profits and avoid greed that may lead to profit taking.
📊From the technical structure, the gold price fell back after breaking through the first wave of rebound high 3185 in the evening, and fell back to the lowest level of 3171, and then rebounded again, indicating that the short-term support in this area is effective. Currently, we focus on the breakout of 3185:
🔶If 3185 is effectively broken and stabilized at night, the space above it is expected to open up, and the gold price may test the resistance of 3200-3205. This area is also an important short-term short position layout opportunity;
🔶If 3185 fails to break through effectively, there is still a possibility of a decline, and the short-term adjustment will continue
✅Intraday trading strategy
🔰Gold Sell: 3200-3205, Stop Loss: 5-8$
Target: 3170-3150, if it breaks, look to 3120
🔰Gold Buy: 3120-3123, Stop Loss: 5-8$
Target: 3155-3170, if it breaks, look to 3190
✅Trading strategies are time-sensitive. We will provide members with real-time and accurate trading strategies based on market changes. Short-term trading requires flexibility, timely adjustment of positions, strict risk control, and ensuring that you are not affected by large fluctuations.

Geopolitical risks ease, trade progresses: Gold short-term volatIndia and Pakistan have declared a full ceasefire😮, while news has emerged that Russia and Ukraine will observe a 30-day ceasefire. With the cooling of geopolitical risks, gold’s appeal as a safe-haven asset has diminished. Additionally, high-level economic and trade talks between China and the U.S. in Geneva, Switzerland, have made substantive progress, with most market participants believing the tariff war is nearing an end—further dampening gold’s safe-haven demand.
The market has seen two consecutive days of massive volatility: a surge of $100 on Thursday, followed by a plunge of $100 on Friday, creating a "double kill" for both bulls and bears, which is clearly a capital-driven washout. Currently, the 3120 level still shows a relatively obvious supporting effect. Due to ongoing international relations issues, gold remains in a long-term bullish trend. Traders can continue to take small long positions near 3120😎.

Gold short sellers hit the 3,000 mark in a bloodbath?News: The gold market has been experiencing violent fluctuations recently, with a significant correction from historical highs, triggering heated discussions in the market. Its price decline is mainly driven by two major factors: First, global trade tensions have eased. China and the United States have significantly reduced tariffs and suspended some tariffs for 90 days, which has greatly boosted market risk appetite. Investors have evacuated safe-haven assets and the demand for gold has declined. Second, the U.S. dollar index has bottomed out, and U.S. Treasury bond yields have also hit a six-week high. The 10-year Treasury bond yield has exceeded 4.5%. The Fed's adjustment in interest rate cut expectations has made non-interest-bearing assets such as gold less attractive. However, geopolitical risks have not completely dissipated, and the US-EU trade negotiations have progressed slowly, which may re-boost gold's safe-haven demand in the future. In the short term, trade optimism and a stronger US dollar may continue to suppress gold prices; but in the medium and long term, geopolitical uncertainty, inflationary pressures and central bank demand for gold purchases will provide support for gold prices.
From the four-hour level, a double top is formed at the 3500 and 3440 positions above. Gold continued to fall after breaking below 3200. The continued decline has released a clear short signal.The focus below is on the weekly 3100 area support.The ultimate goal of this round of adjustment is to look at the 3030-2980 range

🔴 ⚠️ Fed Chair Powell Speaks
This is not a light news day. It’s a full macro storm. Expect strong reactions from gold depending on how inflation, retail demand, and Powell’s tone align.
🔍 Market Flow – Price Action Overview
Gold remains in a retracement phase after bouncing cleanly from 3215–3225.
It’s now consolidating at 3244–3252, a mid-range supply zone. Above this, we track a clear mitigation path toward untouched OBs and FVGs.
No structure has broken cleanly to confirm bullish reversal yet — so we remain reactive, not predictive.
🧱 Sniper Mitigation Map
🔢 📍 Zone ⏳ Status ⚙️ Reason
1️⃣ 3244–3252 🔄 In play Mid-range supply zone currently in test
2️⃣ 3280–3288 ❗Unmitigated M30 OB + inefficiency pre-CPI
3️⃣ 3315–3320 ❗Unmitigated Asian session FVG / Gap
4️⃣ 3330–3338 ❗Unmitigated H1–H4 bearish OB (key reversal area)
5️⃣ 3350–3360 ⚠️ Only if structure shifts Upper OB — reserved for extreme flow
📌 Key Technical Zones
Zone Type Level Context
✅ Demand Zone 3215–3225 Confirmed post-CPI bounce zone
🔄 Active Supply 3244–3252 Current area of compression
🟧 M30 OB 3280–3288 Clean bearish OB not yet tested
🟥 FVG Magnet 3315–3320 Asia imbalance likely to attract price
🟥 HTF OB 3330–3338 Valid HTF reversal supply
⚠️ Upper OB 3350–3360 Only if 3338 breaks with strength
🧠 How to Use This Plan
Watch what price does at each zone, then build your own plan based on confirmations like BOS, CHoCH, rejection wicks, or liquidity sweeps.
Scenarios:
Tap & reject 3288? → Short scalp idea back to 3244
Break above 3288? → 3315–3320 becomes next magnet
Strong reaction at 3330–3338? → HTF sell zone in play
Powell hawkish? → Gold likely pressured down from OBs
Powell dovish? → Price may reclaim above 3338
📣 Final Note
Thursday = 🔥 Macro Meltdown Day 🔥
Powell + inflation + retail data = high-probability moves. Let price lead. Don’t force early entries into chop.

Gold Bulls Regaining Control? Here's What to Watch Next!Hello traders, Galvin here – let’s dive into today’s gold price action!
Currently, XAUUSD is showing signs of a mild recovery after rebounding from the Fair Value Gap (FVG) zone around $3,200, which aligns closely with the EMA34 support. On the daily timeframe (D1), the market structure remains clearly bullish, supported by a consistent sequence of BOS and CHoCH patterns that confirm buyers have been in control since February.
Although the recent pullback was relatively deep, it remains well within the bounds of a healthy uptrend. Sellers tried to push price below the first FVG, but strong buying pressure quickly emerged near the EMA34 — a zone that the market clearly respects. The fact that price bounced before even touching the deeper FVG near $3,100 further reinforces the notion that the bullish trend remains intact.
On the macro side, U.S. economic data continues to deliver mixed signals — with PPI rising while consumer sentiment weakens. This uncertainty is starting to undermine expectations for the Fed to maintain high interest rates, and as a result, the USD is softening slightly. That, in turn, is lending short-term support to gold’s rebound.
Given both the technical signals and the macro backdrop, I believe this recent dip is just a correction within a broader bullish structure. If gold holds above the $3,200 zone and prints a confirmed bullish candle, the path toward the $3,300 resistance and possibly even $3,450 becomes more likely — aligning with the midline of the ascending channel.
🎯 Trading Strategy: Wait for price to revisit the $3,220–$3,200 area and look for a clear buy confirmation before entering. Set stop loss below the deeper FVG zone and aim for $3,300 as your short-term target, with an extended goal at $3,450. However, if price breaks decisively below $3,200, the scenario of retesting the $3,100 zone will come into play — so caution is key.
My bias remains bullish — but only with proper price action confirmation.

GOLD SUFFERED LOSSES IN THE WAKE OF U.S AND CHINA TRADE TALKThe United States and China reached a significant trade agreement on May 12, 2025, following high-level negotiations in Geneva. The agreement establishes a 90-day truce in the ongoing trade dispute, during which both countries have committed to significantly lowering tariffs on each other’s goods.
The U.S. reduced its tariff from 145% to 30%, while China cut its rate from 125% to 10%.
This move boosted investor confidence, triggering a broad risk-on rally across global markets.
As at the time of writing, gold as a safe haven suffered the most in the wake of this decision, down by 3.46%, while WTI and S&P 500 gained 4.02% and 3.95% respectively.
From a technical perspective, gold maintains a bearish outlook, characterized by a series of impulsive declines followed by corrective pullbacks to the downside. Meanwhile, prices are seen supported around $3200 demand zone.
Technically, a potential pullback would target around $3271 to $3291 and a breakout of $3300 would open the floor for a possible reversal of trend on the 2H. Whereas a break blow $3200 would likely usher in $3135 as per analysts. Meanwhile, breakout of these levels is not ruled out.
UPCOMING CATALYST
On the radar this week, the U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation data is set for release on Tuesday, May 13 at 4:30 PM GMT+4. On Thursday at 4:30 PM GMT+4, markets will watch for Core PPI, Retail Sales Index, PPI, and Weekly Unemployment Claims. Then at 4:40 PM, Fed Chair Jerome Powell is scheduled to deliver opening remarks at the Second Thomas Laubach Research Conference in Washington, D.C.
Consumer sentiment data is scheduled for release on Friday. These data points and event have the potential to stir market volatility. Hence presenting potential risk and reward opportunities.
Market next move
1. Red Zone Retest Failure
Disruption: If the price breaks back below the red highlighted zone (around 3,265–3,270), it may indicate a false breakout.
Impact: This would invalidate the bullish continuation and could lead to a sharp decline toward 3,240 or even lower.
---
2. Low Volume on the Breakout
Disruption: The breakout rally appears strong, but if upcoming candles show declining volume, it may suggest weak momentum.
Impact: A drop in volume could precede a reversal or sideways consolidation instead of the projected move to 3,306.
---
3. Double Top or Bearish Rejection at 3,306
Disruption: The price could reach the 3,306 target and form a double top, leading to bearish rejection.
Impact: This could be the start of a downtrend or extended consolidation.
---
4. Overbought Conditions
Disruption: If momentum indicators like RSI or Stochastic (not shown on chart) are in overbought territory, this could suggest a pullback is likely before continuation.
Impact: May lead to a deeper retracement than expected.
---
5. Macroeconomic or News Catalyst
Disruption: Unforeseen macro events (e.g., interest rate announcements, geopolitical tension) could cause sudden shifts against the technical outlook.
Impact: Could override technical structure entirely.
Gold's Rally Resumes (Elliott Wave)Gold's decline to today's low has satisfied the minimum requirements to consider the correction over.
The April to May decline corrected in a double zigzag labeled ((w))-((x))-((y)). There are 3 geometric relationships pointing to today's low as an important bottom.
1. Wave ((y)) was equal to wave ((w)) at today's low, a common wave relationship.
2. Additionally, wave (c) of ((y)) was 61.8% times wave (a) of ((y))...another common wave relationship.
3. Lastly, the previous all-time high from early April clocks in at 3,167...the broken resistance acts as new support holding up prices.
The runway is cleared for gold to take off to new all-time highs again.
In the unexpected event of a decline below today's low, the next cluster of wave relationships appears near 2,950.
Current Gold Trend Analysis and Trading StrategiesThe real-time trading signals we provided have been profitable every day. If you don't know how to get started, you can refer to my strategies. 👉🏼👉🏼👉🏼
After the gold price broke below 3202 during the US trading session, it rebounded to a high of 3198 at most. This rebound is merely an oversold bounce, and the price subsequently fell back again. Although it has not hit a new low yet, the pattern has weakened, making it difficult to rise again for now. In a weak bearish trend, the price may even struggle to break above 3198. The short-term support below is at 3150-3160.
On the 1-hour chart of gold, the death cross in the bearish arrangement continues to point downward, and bearish momentum remains strong. Rebounds still provide opportunities to go short. Due to the lack of obvious sustained upward momentum in the short term, this market is just a rebound. Therefore, it is recommended to short on rebounds during the US gold session.
In summary, the current short-term trading strategy for gold is recommended to focus on shorting on rebounds, supplemented by longing on pullbacks. The key short-term resistance level to focus on above is the 3200-3205 range, while the key short-term support level below is the 3150-3160 range.
