Closing both of orders with excellent ProfitAs discussed throughout my yesterday's session pre-Fed commentary: "Fundamental analysis: My earlier Selling signal was confirmed on Hourly 4 chart under prolonged weakness and Price-action respecting the trendline guarding the downtrend (very Bearish formation) as Hourly 1 chart is already an aggressive Descending Channel (width opened on Williams) that should reach it’s next Lower High’s (currently Trading slightly below Triple Top's formation) and Oversold state near my take Profit of #2,627.80 Support in extension. If the bands are widened Traders may witness #2,622.80 pivot point test on the correction back down after current upside extension but not Lower. In any case I will update my Targets or levels of Profit taking if I decide to exit earlier than #2,622.80 Support in extension to be in accordance with the Daily chart’s period. My position: #2,648.80 was excellent re-Sell point and regarding Fed Rate decision, I expect Rate to be Lowered and hawkish stance on the aftermath which can make Gold suffer even more." I have closed my both #2,648.80 and #2,638.80 orders, first one on #2,633.80 and second one (#2,638.80 entry point) on #2,600.80 benchmark. My Fed Rate decision expectations were spot on as I guessed nicely that Rate will be Lowered and hawkish stance on the aftermath. Technical analysis: As Gold rebounded back towards well known Hourly 4 chart’s Neutral Rectangle once again within Symmetrical Triangle forming on Daily chart, this is very cautious market at the moment. Yet again, I see no firm reasons for current Buying bias on Gold to be sustainable, as #2,648.80 - #2,652.80 Resistance zone should price in local Top’s and reversal area (optimal re-Sell zone). After observing Gold’s Price-action near market closing (first similar closing since May #15), do not expect much from today’s session as long as DX isn't pressured by disappointing numbers. My position: I will await for area to be engulfed and only then make my move. Yesterday's session Profits were great edition to previous week's Profits as I don't have any urge to rush and engage any kind of order however will monitor the Price-action patiently until opportunity arise. I expect Gold to remain pressured.Shortby goldenBear881113

GOLD: Technical Trends and Fed Meeting Impact AheadGold remains relatively stable, hovering around $2,644 on Wednesday as I draft this article. This follows a rebound from a one-week low reached on Tuesday. The precious metal is currently under some pressure as investors anticipate the results of the final Federal Reserve meeting of the year. From a technical standpoint, gold has already tested a significant daily demand zone, subsequently retreating from a high of $2,720. Now, the metal appears poised for a potential bearish trend as the US dollar continues to gain strength. Retail traders are predominantly holding long positions, whereas commercial traders seem to be reducing their long exposure, which could suggest a shift in market sentiment. Looking ahead, the upcoming economic data from the US, including the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting today and the unemployment claims report tomorrow, could provide further support to the dollar. If these reports indicate stronger economic conditions, it may exacerbate a bearish trend for gold prices. As the market assesses the Fed's policy direction and its implications for interest rates and the dollar, gold will likely remain on the defensive. Investors should monitor these developments closely, as they could significantly influence gold's price movements in the near term. The combination of potential dollar strength and a shift in positioning among traders adds to the likelihood of continued bearish pressure on gold. ✅ Please share your thoughts about GOLD in the comments section below and HIT LIKE if you appreciate my analysis.

XAU/USD Tradin Plan For TodayI will be looking at four potential scenarios for today's price movement. The price is currently consolidating near the middle of the range, with a previous day's high (PDH) around 2659 and a previous day's low (PDL) near 2633. Key levels to watch include the local highs and lows marked by the yellow zones. Key Levels: PDH (2659): Potential liquidity grab or breakout target for bullish scenarios. PDL (2633): Major downside liquidity target if bearish pressure dominates. Local Support Zone (around 2642): A key area for potential bounces or breakdowns. Local Resistance Zone (around 2649): A significant level to watch for rejection or continuation. Neutral Bias for now: The price is in a range with no clear directional dominance. Watch for liquidity sweeps, market structure shifts (MSS), and confirmation signals before entering trades. Scenarios to Watch: 1.Bullish Breakout (Green Scenario - Top Right): Plan: If price sweeps local liquidity near 2649 and breaks structure to the upside, look for confirmation on a retest of the yellow zone. Target: PDH at 2659 or higher. Confirmation: Break of structure + bullish retest. 2.Bullish Reversal from Support (Green Scenario - Bottom Left): Plan: If price drops to the 2642 support zone, wait for signs of accumulation (Wyckoff phases) and a structure shift upward. Target: Local highs around 2649 or PDH at 2659. Confirmation: Bullish structure shift + FVG retest. 3.Bearish Rejection (Red Scenario - Top Right): Plan: If price taps into resistance at 2649 but fails to break higher, watch for a bearish structure shift (MSS). Target: Local support at 2642 or PDL at 2633. Confirmation: Bearish structure break + retest. 4.Bearish Breakdown (Red Scenario - Bottom Left): Plan: If price breaks below 2642 support and confirms a bearish retest, expect continuation towards the PDL at 2633. Target: PDL or lower. Confirmation: Bearish retest of broken support. Use M1 for precise entries after liquidity sweeps. "Patience, precision, and discipline are key. Watch for structure shifts and enter with confidence. Trade safe!"by Med_In_TradeUpdated 12
GOLDSTATEMENT CHANGES There were only two notable changes to the statement compared to the prior one as flagged in the statement comparison at the back of this publication. Key is that language around forward guidance shifted. They now say: “In considering the extent and timing of additional adjustments to the target range for the federal funds rate….” Instead of: “In considering additional adjustments to the target range for the federal funds rate….” This is material in that it injects fresh uncertainty into how much further the Committee thinks they will be cutting, and how over time. The second change was the introduction of a dissenting voice. Cleveland’s Hammack preferred to hold at this meeting. A MORE HAWKISH DOT PLOT First, picking up on the last point is the observation that there were actually four dots that preferred a hold today, yet only one voting dissenter. That probably says that the other three Committee members are regional Presidents who aren’t in this year’s voting line-up but some of them may be when that changes in January. In teeing up the subsequent points, charts 1 and 2 show the new dot plot of Committee rate projection and compared to our forecasts for the policy rate....

GOLD → The FED Rate Decision Ahead: What Should You Do?Dear Traders, Gold (XAUUSD) has made a notable move, successfully testing the strong support level at 2633 before traders shifted into buying mode. As a result, the price broke above 2643, sparking new optimism as upcoming discussions around potential rate cuts from the Federal Reserve (FED) take center stage. Currently, there is a 93% probability that the FED will cut rates by 25 basis points. However, the overarching theme is the FED's stance for the future. Hawkish hints regarding 2025 could influence the rate-cutting trajectory, an aspect the market has only partially priced in. This means any indication of a smaller rate cut could fuel strength for the U.S. dollar. Conversely, a deeper cut could act as a bullish catalyst for gold. The spotlight is firmly on FED Chair Jerome Powell's comments, as they will provide crucial insights into the economic outlook for 2024 amidst the backdrop of Trump-era policies that continue to play a pivotal role. That said, downside risks for gold remain elevated, particularly if the FED maintains a hawkish stance in the current climate. Technical Analysis: At the moment, gold prices are consolidating within the range of 2658 - 2633, with a breakout in either direction likely to bring about a strong momentum-driven move. The market is complex and highly volatile right now, which is why traders are advised to hold off on entering positions before the event. Waiting for volatility to subside can offer better clarity on market direction and safer opportunities. Final Advice: Patience is key in such turbulent times. Avoid getting swayed by short-term noise and focus on acting only after a clear trend emerges following the major event.Shortby BentradegoldUpdated 3
Gold Short Trade 11/12/2024### Technical Analysis for Gold Futures *Current Pattern:* - *Rising Wedge Formation*: The recent price action suggests that Gold Futures are forming a rising wedge pattern. This bearish pattern indicates that momentum is weakening despite rising prices and may precede a price decline. Traders should look for confirmation of a breakout below the lower trendline to validate this pattern. *Key Resistance Levels*: - *Double Top Formation*: A double top has emerged in the price structure, further reinforcing the bearish outlook. The market has struggled to break above the previous highs, indicating potential exhaustion among buyers. *Target Levels for Price Decline*: - *$2693*: Watch for this level as a potential pivot point. If we break below, it could trigger further selling pressure. - *$2687*: This could serve as the next support; a breakdown here might push prices lower. - *$2676*: Another critical support level, further affirming bearish sentiment if breached. - *$2667*: A substantial support area where buyers may step in; however, sustaining a break below this level could indicate a more significant downward trend. *Volume Analysis*: - Pay close attention to trading volume as prices approach these key levels. A decrease in volume during upward movements could indicate weakening bullish sentiment, while increased volume on downward moves might confirm the bearish trend. *Risk Management*: - It's crucial to implement proper risk management strategies. Consider setting stop-loss orders above key resistance levels to protect against unexpected price reversals, and define your risk-reward ratio clearly before entering any trades. ### Summary: Overall, the technical indicators suggest a bearish outlook for Gold Futures with a rising wedge and double top formation. Key monitoring levels are $2693, $2687, $2676, and $2667 for potential sell opportunities. Maintain awareness of trading volume and employ risk management strategies to navigate this market safely. Safe trading, everyone! 📉💼 Shortby SRFXGlobalUpdated 6

Technical Analysis of Gold (XAU/USD) 15-Minute Chart The current price is trading around 2649. A focus on bearish potential below this level could indicate continuing the downward trend if it breaks down further. A bearish outlook for gold below 2649 with the formation of a head and shoulders pattern coupled with a rising wedge is a significant indication to monitor. If the price tests and breaks below 2645, it could lead to further declines, reinforcing the bearish bias. Always remember to manage risk accordingly and adjust your strategy based on real-time market developments. Shortby SRFXGlobalUpdated 6
##Gold Technical Analysis for the Upcoming Week 15/12/2024### Current Market Overview Gold has shown significant price movements recently, encountering challenges in breaking through key resistance levels. As we approach a crucial week with the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) decision, here’s a comprehensive technical analysis for gold (XAU/USD) to guide your trading decisions. ### Recent Price Action Breakout Attempt: Gold made an attempt to breach the resistance zone around $2700-$2720 but failed to maintain the bullish momentum. This failure suggests potential exhaustion among buyers and could indicate profit-taking ahead of the FOMC week. Post-PPI Movement: Following the release of the Producer Price Index (PPI) data, gold faced significant selling pressure, highlighting the market's sensitivity to inflationary signals that may influence future monetary policy. Current Price: As of the latest close, gold is trading at $2648, which is below the 60% Fibonacci retracement level from the last bullish impulse. This positioning indicates a possible shift in the short-term trend from bullish to bearish, or at the very least, a period of consolidation. ### Support and Resistance Levels - Support Levels: - Immediate support is noted around $2638. - Further supports are at $2623 and $2590. A break below these levels could accelerate declines towards $2565/2530 or even $2485. - Resistance Levels: - The recent high around $2692-$2721 now serves as key resistance, with $2671 also acting as a hurdle. For gold to reverse the current bearish sentiment, it would need to rise above this resistance zone decisively. ### Potential Scenarios for Next Week Bearish Scenario: If gold continues to trade below the 60% retracement level and fails to reclaim the $2692, we can expect further downward movement. Key levels to monitor would be the mentioned supports. A decisive break below these could indicate a deeper correction, targeting $2530/2485 or lower. Bullish Reversal: Should gold find strength and bounce back—potentially due to renewed safe-haven demand or a dovish signal from central banks—watch for a move above $2722 for confirmation. A sustained rise with good volume could invalidate the current bearish setup and signal a new upward trend. ### Anticipated Impact of FOMC Rate Decision FOMC Statements and Dot Plot: The FOMC's language, especially regarding future rate paths, will be essential. If hints of more aggressive rate cuts for 2025 are suggested, a bullish reaction could ensue for gold. Conversely, a hawkish or neutral stance could exert downward pressure on gold prices. Market Expectations: Current expectations lean towards a rate cut, but traders should be vigilant for indications of the Fed's overall policy aggressiveness. Any surprises in the FOMC decision could lead to substantial price swings for gold. Volatility Ahead: As the FOMC announcement approaches, increased volatility is expected. Traders should be prepared for whipsaws—sharp price movements that may reverse quickly. ### Post-FOMC Scenarios Bullish Case: If the Fed adopts a dovish tone, leading to a weaker dollar and lower yields, gold may become an attractive hedge. If it reclaims and holds above $2680-$2716 post-FOMC, we could see a resurgence in bullish momentum, targeting new highs. Bearish Case: Should the Fed's messaging be less dovish than anticipated, or if fewer rate cuts are indicated, we could see a strengthening of the dollar, pushing gold down further. Prices below $2600 may see intensified bearish momentum. Neutral or Consolidation: If the FOMC decision aligns with expectations without providing new insights, gold might continue to consolidate until another significant catalyst emerges. ### Conclusion The upcoming FOMC decision is pivotal for gold's price trajectory. Prepare for various scenarios based on the Fed's policy direction, and utilize this analysis to guide your trades effectively. Stay informed, stay alert, and best of luck in your trading endeavors!by SRFXGlobalUpdated 5
