Welcome to my latest analysis and forecast for XAU/USD!Gold prices are entering a phase of bearish consolidation. The understanding that the Federal Reserve may slow the pace of its interest rate cuts due to stalled progress in reducing inflation to its 2% target acts as a headwind for the yellow metal. However, a combination of factors continues to provide some support. A slight decline in U.S. Treasury yields keeps dollar bulls on the defensive. Additionally, persistent geopolitical risks and concerns regarding the policies of U.S. President-elect Donald Trump helps limit the downside for the precious metal. Traders are also likely to avoid taking new directional positions ahead of the critical Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) policy decision on Wednesday. This decision will be closely watched for signals on the future path of rate cuts. which could provide new impetus for the XAU/USD pair. Technical Analysis In this analysis we will take a closer look at the current state of XAU/USD and provide a forecast for its future movements. First, let's start with a brief explanation of XAU/USD. XAU refers to the chemical symbol for gold, while USD is the abbreviation for the US dollar. This currency pair represents the price of gold in US dollars. As the US dollar is the world's foremost reserve currency and gold is seen as a safe-haven asset, XAU/USD is a highly watched and traded currency pair. Now, let's dive into the analysis of XAU/USD. In recent months, we have seen a steady uptrend in the price of gold against the US dollar. This can be attributed to various factors, such as the ongoing trade tensions between the US and China, the uncertainty surrounding Brexit, and the global economic slowdown. All of these events have led to investors seeking refuge in the safe-haven asset of gold, thus driving up its price. Additionally, the recent interest rate cuts by the US Federal Reserve have weakened the US dollar, making gold more attractive for international investors. The demand for gold has also increased due to the central banks of various countries adding gold to their reserves. These factors have all contributed to the bullish trend in XAU/USD. In terms of technical analysis, XAU/USD is currently trading above its long-term moving average , indicating a strong uptrend. However, it is important to note that the price has reached on critical resistance level of $2,718 per ounce. If it breaks through this level, we can expect to see further gains in XAU.USD. On the other hand, if the price fails to break this resistance, we may see a pullback to the support level of $2,560. Now let's move on to our forecast for XAU/USD. Based on the current market conditions, we believe that XAU/USD will continue its uptrend in the short term, with a potential target at $2,791 per ounce. However, we cannot ignore the fact that gold is a highly volatile asset, and any unexpected events or changes in market sentiment can quickly reverse this trend. In the long term, we maintain a bullish stance on XAU/USD due to the ongoing uncertainty in the global economy and the potential for further interest rate cuts by central banks. It is also worth mentioning that the gold market tends to perform well during times of geopolitical tensions and economic downturns, which are all possibilities in the current global landscape. In conclusion, XAU/USD has been on a steady uptrend, and our analysis and forecast suggest that our analysis and forecast suggest that this trend will continue in the short and long term. As always, it is important to keep an eye on the market and adjust your trading strategy accordingly. Stay updated with the latest news and events that may affect XAU/USD to make informed trading decisions. Happy Trading!

XAUUSD Head And Shoulders PatternOn the 15-minute gold chart, a Head and Shoulders pattern is forming. If this pattern completes, the price could experience a significant drop, potentially reaching the $2638 level. "Market fluctuations in the final month of the year, especially in the commodity market, are very low due to liquidity shortages. Therefore, trading during this period is highly risky. Use reasonable trade volumes and do not trade without setting stop-loss and take-profit levels." OANDA:XAUUSD

GOLD -- Fell below 2650 with negative fundamental driversOANDA:XAUUSD continued its downward trajectory, dipping to $2,648, underpinned by adverse fundamental drivers. The key question now is whether a retracement is on the horizon or if the decline will deepen further. Optimism about Chinese stimulus faded due to growing concerns over the U.S.-China trade war. In a closed report, the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) stated that China has begun retaliating against President-elect Donald Trump’s upcoming tariffs by implementing non-tariff measures. The market now believes that the Fed might send a hawkish signal by indicating a pause in January after the anticipated 25 basis points (bps) rate cut at the December 17-18 policy meeting, especially following the release of higher-than-expected U.S. Producer Price Index (PPI) data. Technically, gold remains confined within its current channel, with the consolidation phase still intact. The primary focus lies on the key support zone between 2636 and 2634, below which a large liquidity cluster could serve as a potential target for prices. The 2636 support level could trigger a retracement, depending on forthcoming market developments. If the retracement appears shallow and prices quickly return to this level, the likelihood of a break below support increases, potentially driving prices down to levels like 2612 and 2580. However, if gold can stabilize above 2682 and consolidate above local highs, it could pave the way for a retest of higher levels. Regards Bentradegold!

Gold: Short-Term Fluctuations, Long-Term TriumphsAs a market analyst, I observe that global gold prices currently stand at $2,647 per ounce, with February 2025 gold futures on the Comex New York exchange priced at $2,675 per ounce, reflecting a 0.03% increase from the previous day. Over the past week, gold has shown a solid 0.8% gain. From my perspective, gold has had a remarkable year, and while it is now undergoing a phase of correction, I firmly believe this pullback will not last long. My analysis suggests that gold prices will rise further in the coming months. This outlook is supported by several key factors, including loose monetary policies, strong central bank buying activity, and growing demand for safe-haven assets, all of which are likely to drive gold to new record highs this year. I’m also closely following comments from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell after each meeting, as these are crucial for shaping investor expectations for 2025. Inflation remains a pressing issue, still falling short of the Fed’s 2% target. According to Nicky Shiels, a metals strategist at MKS PAMP SA, gold prices could reach $2,500 per ounce, or even as high as $3,000 per ounce, depending on how effectively the Fed manages inflation. In the short term, my projection is that gold will trade within a range of $2,647 to $2,760 per ounce. For the longer term, I align with Goldman Sachs' forecast that gold could achieve $3,000 per ounce by the end of 2025. This aligns with the broader trends I’m observing, where persistent economic uncertainties and evolving monetary policies continue to shape a favorable environment for gold.

Trading is a Game of Probability------For SMC TradersFocus on Risk Management and High-Probability Setups Trading is fundamentally a game of probabilities, which means you should take risks that align with your capital and personal risk tolerance. There is no "holy grail" strategy in trading. Instead, you need to think from both sides of the equation: start by assessing the risk you’re taking on in a trade rather than focusing on potential profits. When you prioritize managing risk, profits will follow naturally. One of the most common mistakes traders make is to focus solely on profits. They imagine the rewards but fail to account for the risks involved. Trading success comes from understanding and managing the probabilities on both sides—risk and reward. The Foundation of Trading: Risk Management 1.Control Risk Per Trade Self-Funded Accounts: Limit risk to 1%-2% of your account balance per trade. Funded Accounts: Limit risk to 0.25%-1% of your account balance per trade. 2. Adjust Stop Loss Dynamically to Protect Capital When the trade moves in your favor, focus first on securing your stop loss. Once the market breaks a recent high or low, move your stop loss to breakeven. Avoid chasing extreme risk-reward ratios like 1:30 or 1:50, which are often overhyped on social media. In reality, a 1:5 to 1:10 risk-reward ratio is excellent and more realistic. Rather than aiming for exaggerated profits, concentrate on protecting your capital and waiting for high-probability entries. Discipline and Patience: The Keys to Consistent Success Avoid Emotional Trading Emotional trading is a major obstacle to profitability. To succeed, you must remain emotionless and stick to your plan. Only take trades at high-probability Points of Interest (POI) and avoid impulsive entries. Be Patient and Wait for the Right Setup Patience is a vital part of trading. The market doesn’t always offer high-quality opportunities, so it’s crucial to wait for everything to align with your trading plan before entering a trade. Key Takeaways Risk per trade for self-funded accounts: 1%-2% Risk per trade for funded accounts: 0.25%-1% Focus on high-probability trading setups and always protect your capital by adjusting your stop loss. Aim for realistic risk-reward ratios (e.g., 1:5 to 1:10) rather than chasing extreme and impractical goals. Discipline and patience are the foundations of long-term trading success. Remember, trading is a long-term game of probabilities. Protect your capital, trade rationally, and patiently wait for high-probability opportunities to achieve consistent profitability.

Gold can do a correction before ascending furtherAs you can see, the price is within a bearish pennant pattern, and if this pattern breaks, the price could drop significantly. Additionally, we have a bearish divergence, which strengthens this signal. In the short term, I think gold is forming an ascending wedge, which, once completed, could lead to substantial growth.

Gold ahead of Fed Rate decisionFundamental 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.
