Gold has broken below the key level of 3200Before the U.S. trading session on Wednesday, spot gold saw a sharp short-term decline, plummeting by $50 in just 3 hours and breaking below the $3,200 mark.👉👉👉 Recently, the global financial markets have shown significant fluctuations due to tariff - related news. Over the weekend, China and the United States reached an agreement in Geneva to suspend the imposition of tariffs for 90 days. This news has effectively alleviated market concerns about a global economic recession, and global stock markets have risen in response, with risk - appetite sentiment heating up. For short-term gold trading ideas, it's recommended to focus on shorting on rebounds and supplement with longing on pullbacks. Key short-term resistance to watch above is the 3200-3205 level, while key short-term support to focus on below is the 3150-3155 level. XAUUSD trading strategy sell @ 3200-3195 sl 3220 tp 3170-3175 If you think the analysis helpful, you can give a thumbs-up to show your support. If you have different opinions, you can leave your thoughts in the comments. Thank you for reading!👉👉👉

Stop Watching Your Trades All Day!How to Break Free from Screen Addiction and Become a More Focused, Profitable Trader Have you ever found yourself glued to your screens, watching every tick of the market, feeling your stress levels spike with every price fluctuation? If so, you’re not alone. Most traders, at some point, fall into this trap. It feels productive, even necessary, to monitor your trades constantly. But the reality is that it’s one of the most damaging habits you can develop. In this article, I’ll show you why this behavior is hurting your trading results and how to break free from it, so you can trade smarter, stress less, and live more. ________________________________________ ⚠️ The Cortisol Trap – Why Watching Every Tick is a Psychological Minefield Every time you check the market and see a fluctuation in your trades, your body releases cortisol, the primary stress hormone. While cortisol is useful in fight-or-flight situations (like dodging a car on the street), it’s terrible for trading. Here’s why: • Cortisol reduces rational thinking – It pushes your brain into reactive mode, not analytical mode. • It triggers impulsivity – You become more likely to close winning trades too early or move your stop loss in desperation. • It burns your mental energy – Leaving you drained, unfocused, and emotionally volatile. Simply put: Too much screen time = too much cortisol = bad trading decisions. If you want to win consistently, you need to break this cycle. ________________________________________ 🎯 Distraction from Higher Priorities – Why Trading Should Be a Part of Life, Not All of It Trading is meant to give you freedom — not steal it. Yet, too many traders become slaves to the screen, obsessing over every tick. But here’s the truth: You don’t need to be in front of your screen all day to be a great trader. In fact, doing so can rob you of the mental clarity and emotional balance needed for high-quality trading. When you step away from the charts: • You give your strategic mind time to work, • You focus on other important aspects of life — family, health, personal growth, • You develop a longer-term perspective on the market, which is crucial for real success. Balance is the key to sustainable success, both in trading and in life. ________________________________________ ✅ 3 Benefits of Breaking Free from Screen Addiction ✅ Benefit #1: Better Decision-Making When you stop reacting to every tick: • You make calmer, more rational trading decisions, • You avoid low-probability setups and revenge trading, • You focus on quality over quantity. Instead of jumping on every tiny move, you become a strategic sniper in the market, waiting for high-probability setups. ________________________________________ 🧘 Benefit #2: Improved Quality of Life Life is not just about trading. Reducing screen time frees you up for other meaningful activities: • Exercise, • Hobbies, • Time with family and friends. A well-rounded life supports better mental health, which, in turn, improves your trading performance. Remember, a clear mind is a profitable mind. ________________________________________ ⏱️ Benefit #3: Increased Productivity Believe it or not, less screen time = more productivity. Why? Because you’ll: • Spend less time reacting and more time preparing, • Conserve your mental energy for important decisions, • Create time for deep market analysis instead of random impulse trades. This disciplined approach leads to better trading outcomes over time. ________________________________________ 🔔 How to Trade with Less Screen Time – 3 Practical Step s 🔔 Action #1: Use Alerts Wisely Instead of staring at charts all day, let technology work for you: • Set alerts at key price levels, • Use trading apps to get notifications when your levels are hit, • Let the market come to you — not the other way around. Example: If you want to buy Gold at 3200 support, set an alert and go for a walk. You’ll be notified when price approaches, so you can act, not react. ________________________________________ 📅 Action #2: Create a Balanced Schedule Build a daily routine that includes more than just trading: • Morning exercise, • Reading or journaling, • Spending time with loved ones, • Working on long-term goals. When you’re mentally balanced, you’ll trade better and more profitably. ________________________________________ 📊 Action #3: Review Your Trading Plan Regularly Spend time reviewing your trades instead of watching them: • Look at your journal, • Analyze your stats, • Identify mistakes and strengths. This should only take once a week — and it’s far more valuable than hours of pointless screen time. ________________________________________ 🧠 Final Words As the saying goes: “Sometimes, less is more.” Stop watching your trades all day. Lower your stress, regain your focus, and remember why you started trading in the first place — to build wealth and live freely, not to become a slave to the screen. Trade well. Build wealth. Live fully. 🚀 Disclosure: I am part of Trade Nation's Influencer program and receive a monthly fee for using their TradingView charts in my analyses and educational articles.

XAUUSD Weekly Analysis & Trade Signal — May 18, 2025Technical Overview: Price is currently trading around the $3,204 level, right below a key resistance zone of $3,245–$3,255, which aligns with the midline of the descending parallel channel. This zone has historically acted as a strong resistance. If price retests and rejects this level again, we can expect a significant bearish move. However, a clean breakout above $3,255 followed by a successful retest and hold would shift the bias to bullish, potentially targeting the upper boundary of the channel near $3,360. The weekly candle closed below $3,240 with strong bearish momentum (notable red volume), signaling a potential continuation of the downtrend next week. Trading Plan for Next Week: 🟥 Bearish Bias (Preferred Scenario) Entry: If price retests $3,245–$3,255 zone and shows strong rejection (e.g. bearish engulfing or wick rejections). Target 1: $3,200 Target 2: $3,145 Target 3: $3,100 Stop Loss: Above $3,270 🟩 Bullish Scenario (Breakout Confirmation) Entry: If price breaks and holds above $3,255, and confirms with a bullish retest. Target 1: $3,300 Target 2: $3,345 (channel top) Stop Loss: Below $3,230 Summary: Your preferred bias should remain bearish unless price clearly breaks and holds above the $3,255 resistance zone. Trade based on confirmation, not anticipation. Kindly show support, like and comment.

Gold strategy today, I hope it will be helpful to you Since the decline last Monday, the low points have continuously risen, while the high points have been suppressed at the 3,250-52 level for a long time. It was not until after the U.S. market closed last night that a rapid breakthrough occurred. For this breakthrough, traders can place breakout orders or continue to follow the trend after the breakout. A strong rally after the U.S. market session tends to persist until the end of the day's trading. For example, after gold broke through 3,200 last Thursday, it continued to rise until the end of the day's session. This morning, focus on the support level near 3,275-78 from the early morning session. Today, go long on gold again in the 3,300-3,310 decline zone. For the downside, monitor the support at the previous resistance level around 3,290. On the upside, gold is expected to challenge the 3,340-60 USD range, with the potential to test the extreme level of 3,400 USD! XAUUSD BUY@3300-3310 SL:3290 TP1:3340 TP2:3360

Gold Trade Plan 21/05/2025Dear Traders, Gold made an explosive move, breaking through the 3280 zone, which was a demand area, and is now fluctuating above 3300. Given the visible daily gap on the chart, I expect the gap to be fully filled and the price to reach the 0.78 Fibonacci level. In that area, we need to closely watch the price behavior and reaction — as it aligns with both the top of the descending channel and the 0.78 Fibonacci level. if you enjoyed this forecast, please show your support with a like and comment. Your feedback is what drives me to keep creating valuable content." Regards, Alireza!

XAUUSD: Market Analysis and Strategy for May 19Gold technical analysis Daily chart resistance 3284, support below 3167 Four-hour chart resistance 3284, support below 3192 One-hour chart resistance 3252, support below 3200 Gold news analysis: On Monday (May 19) in the Asian market, spot gold soared by more than $40, reaching a high of around 3250. Moody's suddenly removed the last AAA rating of the United States, Israel launched a large-scale ground war in Gaza, Russia-Ukraine negotiations broke down, Russia launched the largest air strike since 2022, Iran took a tough attitude towards negotiations, and the market's risk aversion was completely boiling. In addition, the risk of a global trade war has heated up again. This uncertainty will further weaken the credit of the US dollar, and gold will become the best alternative currency. There are fewer economic data this week, only a few important news data, and investors need to continue to pay attention to news related to the international trade situation and geopolitical situation. Gold operation suggestions: From the current trend analysis, the support below focuses on the 3192 level support, the pressure above focuses on the one-hour level 3252 and the four-hour level 3284 level near the suppression, the short-term long and short strength watershed 3200 level, the overall support is to sell high and buy low in this range, and then follow the trend after the breakthrough.

Gold Urgent Update.Gold Urgent Update Gold has recently touched its 4-hour bullish Fair Value Gap (FVG) and is now moving upward. Additionally, there is existing liquidity from previous days positioned above the current price level, which further increases the probability of a continued bullish move. There is a high likelihood that the market could rise towards the price levels of 3250, 3260, and possibly even 3265. These levels should be closely monitored, as they represent potential short-term targets based on the current price action and market structure. At this stage, it is advised to avoid entering any selling (short) positions unless a clear and confirmed bearish signal is observed. The market sentiment remains decisively bullish, and until any bearish reversal patterns are confirmed, the upward trend should be respected. Please conduct your own research (DYOR) and practice proper risk management when trading towards the mentioned target levels.

Golds Correction Is Over!Gold corrected itself all the way down to 3120 yesterday which is a significant demand level by institutions. Price then rebounded and closed at 3150. If it creates a confirmed HL by the end of Friday, the odds and probability XAUUSD will go back to its supply area at 3500 is highly probable. Price will also depend on macro fundamentals. The weekly shows a strong uptrend and so as the monthly chart. Institutions started buying back and increased their long positions.

5/21 Gold Trading SignalsGood afternoon, everyone! In yesterday’s trading, our buy-side positions performed well, but unfortunately, sell orders around 3280 weren't closed in time, resulting in a partial loss of profit. Today, gold has shown impressive strength, breaking above the 3300 level and forming an irregular inverse head-and-shoulders pattern. Technically, this implies further upside potential. 🔍 Based on price action and technical patterns, this rally could extend beyond 3330, and even test 3350+. However, the 3346–3369 zone marks a strong resistance band, making it an ideal zone for medium-term selling opportunities. 📉 On the downside, we identify the first major support at 3278, followed by the 3261–3246 zone. 📰 On the news front, several Fed officials expressed economic concerns in speeches early this morning. Meanwhile, reports of Israel preparing to strike Iran’s nuclear facilities fueled safe-haven demand, pushing gold strongly back above the 3300 mark. 📌 Today's Trading Strategy: Sell between 3346–3373 (consider scaling in) Buy between 3260–3243 Flexible trading in the zones: 3338 - 3326 - 3318 -3309 -3298 - 3288 - 3272 Lastly, a heartfelt thought: Living in a peaceful country like China, it's truly heartbreaking to see so many innocent children suffering or even losing their lives due to war. Let us hope for peace soon—so all people may live safely, freely, and happily.
