Strong news chain could push gold to retest 4300🟡 XAU/USD – Weekly Trading Plan (Nov 23–29)
SMC – FVG – Supply/Demand – High-Impact News Week
1. Market Context
Gold is sideways in the H4 accumulation structure, forming higher lows along the trendline.
Above are 3 important supply layers:
OLD FVG 1
OLD FVG 2
Large FVG 4220–4300
the price needs to sweep liquidity & hit the supply zone before creating a new direction.
2. Strong News Schedule for the Week
This week has a lot of USD news directly affecting gold:
Tuesday (Nov 25)
Core PPI – Retail Sales – PPI (4 consecutive red news) → strong volatility.
Wednesday (Nov 26)
Unemployment Claims
Durable Goods → Core Durable Goods
GDP q/q – GDP Price Index
Core PCE (most important inflation news of the week)
➡️ This is the decisive day for the trend for the rest of the week.
Friday (Nov 28)
German CPI (affects EUR → USD indirectly)
🎯 News Conclusion:
→ Gold likely to fake move – sweep liquidity before running correctly.
→ Thin SL zones will be continuously hunted.
3. Key Levels (from the chart you sent)
🔻 SELL Zone (Supply – FVG)
4189 – 4191 (Main Sell)
SL: 4195
This is a strong reaction zone for the week.
4132 – 4134 (Sell scalp)
SL: 4138
🔵 BUY Zone (Demand – Trendline – SMC)
4906 – 4904 (main BUY scalp zone in the chart)
SL: 3999
→ This is the only zone clearly marked as BUY in the chart.
Psychological level: 4000 – 3985
If the price falls → strong reaction to form the weekly low.
4. Weekly Trading Scenarios
🅰️ Scenario 1 – Price retraces to supply zone before dropping (most likely)
Price is forecasted to retest 4132–4134 → 4189–4191
After hitting 4190 ± → potential appearance of:
Bearish BOS H1/H4
Strong reversal to 4050 – 4000
🔻 SELL Plan
Sell 4132–4134 (scalp) SL 4138
Main Sell 4189–4191 SL 4195
TP targets:
TP1: 4090
TP2: 4050
TP3: 4000
🅱️ Scenario 2 – Price dips before news then surges (kill liquidity)
If gold is pushed down before PPI/GDP news:
Best BUY zone: 4000 – 3985
Form a low → surge back up to test supply.
🔵 BUY Plan
BUY 4000–3985
SL: 3975
TP:
4050
4100
4130
🅾️ Scenario 3 – If 4200 breaks
If 4200 is broken by a large-bodied H4 candle:
➡️ High probability gold will move up to test large FVG 4250–4300
→ At that point, only look for BUY pullbacks, no more SELL.

XAUUSD – Where Smart Money Strikes Today🌐 MARKET CONTEXT
Gold enters today’s session after a period of controlled volatility, with price repeatedly reacting around key liquidity pockets but failing to produce a clean breakout. The M30 structure remains bearish, with price rejecting premium levels and forming consistent lower highs.
Recent Drivers
USD stays firm as markets maintain expectations of a slightly hawkish Federal Reserve
Traders await upcoming mid-week data → low conviction, cautious positioning
Overall sentiment remains neutral — no strong safe-haven pressures
Session Outlook
London Session: Likely to engineer early sweeps into premium supply zones
New York Session: Higher chance of real directional expansion
Bias: Bearish intraday until discount zones trigger a CHoCH (shift of character)
Price is currently inside mid-range, so the safest setups remain at extremes where liquidity is concentrated.
📉 TECHNICAL ANALYSIS (SMC + LIQUIDITY)
Market Structure
M30 Trend: Lower High → Lower Low sequence
Equilibrium zone: 4068–4085
Inducement layers resting above 4147 and 4081
Liquidity Levels
BSL: Above 4147 & 4081
SSL: Below 4033 & deep liquidity at 3993
Market continues printing engineered wicks, trapping impulsive traders
Imbalances
Bearish FVG: 4147–4148 → perfect for premium scalp sells
Minor imbalance: 4081
Discount inefficiencies near 4033 and 3993 → ideal buy setups
🔑 KEY PRICE ZONES (Strong Logic + Clear Explanation)
4148–4147 ▶️ Premium Liquidity Trap – High-Quality Sell Zone
This area holds an unmitigated bearish order block combined with buy-side liquidity.
Smart Money typically uses this zone to trap breakout buyers before reversing sharply.
4079–4081 ▶️ Secondary Premium Sweep Zone – Fast Rejection Expected
A mini liquidity pool just above equilibrium, designed for early-session stop hunts.
Often triggers sharp intraday reversals.
4035–4033 ▶️ Discount Reaction Zone – Clean Scalping Demand
This zone holds micro-demand + SSL resting below.
Expect low-drawdown reactions ideal for quick intraday buys.
3995–3993 ▶️ Deep Discount Liquidity Pool – High-Probability Reversal Base
A rich accumulation of Sell-Side Liquidity combined with HTF discount structure.
Strong reversal potential if price reaches this level.

Entry: 4148–4147
Stoploss: 4126
TP1: 4135

Entry: 4079–4081
Stoploss: 4087
TP1: 4065

Stoploss: 3987
TP1: 4010
TP2: 4040
TP3: 4070
Logic: Major discount zone + liquidity buildup → strong reversal potential.
🧠 NOTES / SESSION PLAN
Avoid mid-range trading — only trade at liquidity extremities
Expect London fake-outs; real movement likely in NY
Always wait for M5/M15 confirmation (CHoCH + BOS)
Avoid buying in premium areas; avoid selling in deep discount zones
Follow strict risk management — volatility may spike unexpectedly
🏁 CONCLUSION
Gold continues to hold a bearish intraday structure, favouring premium sell setups at 4147 and 4081.
Discount zones at 4033 and 3993 offer high-probability buy reactions and possible deeper reversals.
Trade with patience. Execute only at liquidity extremes.
Let Smart Money show its trap — then strike with precision.
Gold Drops to 4050 – Testing a Key Support Zone📊 Market Overview:
Gold continues to fall toward the 4050 region as the US Dollar strengthens and US bond yields edge higher, reducing safe-haven demand. The market is now awaiting clearer signals from the Fed minutes and upcoming US economic data, causing bullish momentum to weaken.
________________________________________
📉 Technical Analysis:
Key Resistance: 4072 – 4085
Stronger Resistance: 4095 – 4105
Nearest Support: 4055
Stronger Support: 4045 – 4040
EMA09: Price is trading below the EMA09 on the H1 chart → short-term bearish signal.
Candlestick / Momentum:
H1 candles continue forming lower highs, showing sellers are in control. Volume is gradually decreasing, indicating the market is waiting for a reaction at the 4050 support zone.
________________________________________
📌 Outlook:
• Gold may continue to decline in the short term if price breaks below 4045.
• Conversely, if gold bounces strongly from 4050 with a clear reversal candle, price could retrace toward 4072–4085, and may extend to 4095 if buying pressure strengthens.

Gold NY Session Strategy 11/19: Will up to 4162Gold Daily Plan – SMC Outlook (Nov 20)
Framework: CHoCH – BOS – FVG – POI – Premium/Discount Model
1. Market Context
Gold continues to recover after the sharp drop earlier this week. Price is now approaching the Premium zone of the current bullish swing and tapping into H1 supply. The market shows:
Buyers still in short-term control
Momentum weakening as price reaches resistance
A corrective pullback into Discount is likely before any further expansion
2. Structural Overview (SMC Logic)
🔻 Overall Market Structure
A key BOS formed around 4090–4100 → confirms short-term bullish structure
Follow-up CHoCH signals continuation of the intraday uptrend
Price is moving toward the upper FVG + Supply Zone (4160–4162)
🔸 Orderflow Notes
Strong reaction at the 4140 area → clear presence of passive Sell Limit absorption
Demand POI at 4091–4089 held exceptionally well → main bullish mitigation zone
3. Trading Zones (POI)
✅ BUY Zone (Discount Area)
4091 – 4089
Demand + previous CHoCH + fib 1.272 confluence
Ideal low-risk long setup within Discount
Suggested SL: 4087
BUY Scenario:
Price retraces to POI → shows bullish reaction → long toward Premium.
❗️ SELL Zones (Premium Area)
Aggressive Sell Zone:
4143 – 4145
SL: 4147
Optimal Sell Zone:
4160 – 4162
Major supply + imbalance + fib 2.618 extension
Highest probability for reversal
SL: 4165
4. Trade Scenarios
📌 Primary Scenario (High Probability)
Price retraces into 4091–4089 Demand
Look for CHoCH/BOS confirmation on lower timeframe
Enter BUY → target 4143 → 4160
→ Classic SMC model: Buy from Discount → Sell from Premium.
📌 Alternative Scenario
If price rallies straight into 4143–4162 without retracement:
ONLY enter SELL when a clear bearish CHoCH or strong rejection forms
Target: 4100 → 4090
5. Intraday Bias
→ Bullish in Discount zones – Bearish in Premium zones.
Trade based on orderflow → Do not chase price in the middle range.
6. Summary
BUY: 4091–4089 (SL 4087) → TP: 4140 – 4160
SELL:
• 4143–4145 (SL 4147)
• 4160–4162 (SL 4165)
Wait for confirmation at each POI; avoid mid-range entries.
XAUUSD – Intraday H1 Plan: Liquidity Sweep or Reversal Base?Date: November 4, 2025
Timeframe: H1
🌐 MARKET CONTEXT
Gold is consolidating between $3,976 and $4,006 after a volatile session yesterday.
Market sentiment remains mixed, as traders weigh the rebound in U.S. Treasury yields against ongoing geopolitical and inflation concerns.
Recent move: Gold rebounded from the $3,975 low after a minor liquidity sweep below last week’s range.
Sentiment: Neutral-to-bullish in the short term — safe-haven demand still provides a soft floor.
Sessions to watch:
London session: Expect retracement and liquidity grab below intraday lows.
New York session: Possible expansion to the upside if $4,000 zone holds as support.
Macro Bias: Mildly bullish if price maintains structure above $3,980–$3,985; potential liquidity sweep downside before reversal.
📉 TECHNICAL ANALYSIS (SMC + LIQUIDITY STRUCTURE)
Market Structure:
H1 is forming a short-term accumulation range with liquidity resting below $3,976 (SSL) and above $4,006 (BSL).
A break and close above $4,005.5 may trigger a short-term BOS → potential push toward $4,015–$4,020.
Key SMC Confluences:
$4,200–4,230 Extended Resistance – higher untested supply if momentum returns.
Demand Zone: $3,978–$3,980 → aligned with FVG + previous sweep low.
Supply Zone: $4,004–$4,006 → previous OB + high liquidity.
🔑 KEY PRICE ZONES
Price Zone Type Explanation
4,006–4,004 🔴 Supply Previous high + BSL liquidity
3,996–3,994 🟡 Resistance Equilibrium rejection zone
3,986–3,984 🟢 Demand OB + CHoCH base support
3,980–3,978 🟢 Strong Demand SSL sweep + FVG confluence
3,976–3,974 ⚠️ Liquidity Sweep Deep liquidity / stop-hunt zone
⚙️ TRADE SETUPS

Entry: 3,968–3,966
Stoploss: 3,960
TP1: 3,988
TP2: 3,996
TP3: 4,004
Logic: SSL sweep below the range + FVG mitigation → bullish reaction expected during London open.
🚫 SELL SCENARIO – Supply Rejection
Entry: 4,010–4,008
Stoploss: 4,016
TP1: 3,994
TP2: 3,986
TP3: 3,980
Logic: Price sweeps the previous BSL liquidity above $4,006 → look for bearish CHoCH + confirmation candle M5 before entry.
⚠️ SCALPING SELL – Aggressive Short
Entry: 4,008–4,009
Stoploss: 4,012
TP: 3,998 – 3,990 – Open
Logic: High-risk scalp at liquidity spike above day’s high; confirm rejection with volume drop.
🧠 NOTES / SESSION PLAN
Prioritize long setups near $3,980–3,984 zone during London open.
Look for liquidity sweep before entering — avoid premature entries.
During NY session, re-evaluate if gold re-tests the $4,004–$4,006 supply zone.
Avoid overtrading; use smaller position sizing due to narrow range ($30).
Always wait for H1 close confirmation before committing.
🏁 CONCLUSION
Gold remains range-bound within $3,976–$4,006, but the structure hints at a potential bullish bias if liquidity below $3,978 is swept first.
The preferred buy zones are $3,984–$3,986 and $3,978–$3,980, while sell reactions may occur near $4,004–$4,006.
Expect whipsaw volatility between London and NY overlap; trade only with clear SMC confirmations and proper risk control.
PROACHING LIQUIDITY ZONE – WAITING FOR CPI TO DECIDE NEXT MOVE📌 MARKET RECAP
Gold kicked off the week with a sharp $50 drop, breaking through key trendlines and nearby support zones.
The selling pressure came from:
Profit-taking after the recent strong rally.
USD strength expectations ahead of CPI data (forecast ~0.1% better than the previous reading).
Geopolitical factor: Ukraine–Russia ceasefire talks moving towards a conclusion, fueling risk-off sentiment.
🧐 WHAT’S NEXT?
If CPI beats expectations → USD strengthens → Gold could drop further into the Liquidity Zone 333x – 330x.
If CPI disappoints → USD weakens → Gold may quickly bounce back toward key level 337x (previous breakdown zone) for a retest before deciding direction.

XAUUSD Weekly Plan Final Bullish Push Before a Liquidity Sweep?XAUUSD Weekly Plan – Final Bullish Push Before a Liquidity Sweep?
1. Market Context
Last week, Gold kept moving inside the H2–H4 bullish channel, pushing into the FVG High Zone and approaching the major resistance at 3426–3428 (OBS Sell Zone).
Momentum is fading – candles are compressing, and volume is dropping – signaling potential distribution.
2. Macro Outlook (High-Impact USD Data Ahead)
CPI – Aug 12 → Primary driver.
PPI – Aug 14 → Usually a leading signal for CPI.
Unemployment Claims – Aug 14 → Short-term impact.
Expectations:
CPI & PPI likely better than previous month → USD strength → Gold correction (liquidity sweep to the downside).
Weaker-than-expected CPI/PPI → USD weakness → Gold could spike for one last bullish leg before reversing.
3. Technical Overview
H2 bullish channel top aligns with FVG High Zone → big players’ sell limit & profit-taking area.
Main scenario: Test 3426–3428 → Bearish reaction → Channel breakdown → Retest 3395–3400 (VPOC) → Drop toward liquidity pools below.
4. Key Levels
SELL Zone: 3426 – 3428
SL: 3434
TP: 3420 → 3415 → 3410 → 3405 → 3400 → 3395 → 3390 → 3380 → 3370 → 3360
BUY Zone: 3330 – 3328
SL: 3322
TP: 3335 → 3340 → 3350 → 3360 → 3370 → 3380
5. Trading Plan
🔹 Primary SELL Setup:
Wait for price to reach 3426–3428 with H1/H2 bearish candle confirmation.
Take profits gradually at each downside target.
🔹 Counter-trend BUY:
Enter only if price sweeps liquidity into 3330–3328 with strong bullish reaction.
6. Trader’s Notes
Gold may still push $30–$40 higher early next week before hitting OBS Sell Zone.
Expect large SELL volume once in this zone (profit-taking + top-picking by big players).
This should be a short-term correction, not a full trend reversal.
Best to SELL from highs and hold after a confirmed channel breakdown.
7. Risk Note
High-impact week → Possible false breaks before/after CPI & PPI.
Avoid oversized positions during news releases.
A break & hold above 3434 with strong volume invalidates SELL scenario → wait for new structure.
📌 Summary:
Bias: SELL from 3426–3428 → Target liquidity pools down to 3360.
Backup Plan: BUY from 3330–3328 if liquidity grab confirmed.
Manage risk tightly, especially during high-volatility events.

GOLD NFP Plan – Waiting for Breakout & Riding the Bullish Wave – GOLD NFP Plan – Waiting for Breakout & Riding the Bullish Wave
Gold is currently trading inside a large sideways triangle pattern, with price compressing toward the apex. However, based on recent candle structure and yesterday’s reaction at the key level, there’s strong momentum building for bullish continuation—likely forming a Wave 3 breakout if price can decisively break above the current descending trendline.
🔎 Technical Breakdown:
✅ BUY ZONE: 3276 – 3274 (confluence of CP ZONE + GAP + OBS BUY from yesterday)
📈 Price already reacted with +160 PIPS profit from this zone, confirming buyer control
⛓️ Descending trendline is compressing price – a breakout above it could unleash strong bullish momentum
🔄 SELL ZONE: 3339 – 3341 marked by OBS SELL ZONE + liquidity layer
📰 Fundamental Focus:
Today is Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) day. With current forecasts pointing toward weaker-than-expected U.S. job data, the dollar could face pressure—creating the perfect scenario for gold to spike higher on BUY-side FOMO.
📌 Trade Plan:
🎯 BUY ZONE: 3276 – 3274
❌ Stop Loss: 3270
🎯 Take Profits:
3280 – 3284 – 3290 – 3294 – 3300 – 3305 – 3310 – 3320 – 3330 – 3340 – 3350
⚠️ SELL ZONE (counter-trend): 3339 – 3341
❌ Stop Loss: 3345
🎯 Take Profits:
3335 – 3330 – 3325 – 3320 – 3315 – 3310 – 3305 – 3300
📌 Key Notes:
Favor BUY setups in line with the trend—focus on reaction zones outlined on the chart.
If NFP data is bearish for the dollar, wait for strong confluences before entering any SELL, and avoid shorting prematurely against bullish momentum.
GOLD: Is This a Bottom or the Calm Before the Storm?🌐 Fundamental & Macro Landscape
The recent US–EU trade and defense pact has temporarily reduced gold’s appeal as a safe haven.
The US Dollar and stock markets remain strong thanks to positive macroeconomic data.
Current sentiment is risk-on, which typically shifts capital away from metals and into riskier assets.
But the real volatility could come later this week:
📅 High-Impact Events to Watch:
US ADP Employment Report
FOMC Statement + Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP)
These will likely decide whether gold resumes its uptrend or continues sliding lower.
📊 Technical Outlook (H1–H4)
Gold is currently trading within a parallel bullish channel after rebounding from local lows.
However, price is now approaching a key resistance zone around 3342, where we might see either a breakout or a rejection, depending on market sentiment during the upcoming data releases.
🔍 Key Price Zones
🔺 Short-Term Resistance: 3342
🔺 Major Supply Zone: 3369–3388 (Order Block + FVG + Fib 0.5–0.618)
🔻 High-Liquidity Demand Area: 3293–3290
🔻 Deep Demand Zone (FVG): 3275–3273
🔺 Long-Term Resistance Target: 3416
📈 Trade Plan – Based on Price Reaction, Not Prediction
The best trades come from waiting for the right reaction at key zones. No chasing. No guessing.
✅ Scenario 1 – Buy the Dip (Scalp Setup)
Entry: 3293 – 3291
Stop Loss: 3286
Targets: 3296 → 3300 → 3304 → 3308 → 3312 → 3315 → 3320 → 3330
🟢 Works well in high-liquidity zones for quick short-term gains.
✅ Scenario 2 – Buy from Deeper Support (Swing Setup)
Entry: 3275 – 3273
Stop Loss: 3269
Targets: 3280 → 3284 → 3288 → 3292 → 3300 → 3305 → 3310 → 3320 → 3330
🟢 Great setup if price absorbs selling pressure and reverses from FVG demand.
❌ Scenario 3 – Short from Short-Term Resistance
Entry: 3340 – 3342
Stop Loss: 3346
Targets: 3335 → 3330 → 3325 → 3320 → 3310
🔴 Valid only if price fails to reclaim above 3342.
❌ Scenario 4 – Short from Major Supply Zone
Entry: 3369 – 3372
Stop Loss: 3376
Targets: 3365 → 3360 → 3355 → 3350 → 3345 → 3340 → 3330 → 3320
🔴 Higher risk – only act after confirmation (e.g., rejection wicks or bearish candle pattern).
⚠️ Risk Management Tips
Avoid entering right at London or New York opens – too much volatility and false breakouts.
Always wait for confirmation (candle rejection, pin bars, engulfing, etc.).
Use strict stop-loss rules – FOMC + NFP can spike price in both directions.
💡 Final Tips for Indian Traders
Trade with patience – the best setups often appear when others are panicking.
Respect your capital – don’t overleverage during high-volatility news events.
Focus on price action – not emotions or fixed bias.

GOLD: Is This Just the Calm Before a Bigger Move? – GOLD: Is This Just the Calm Before a Bigger Move?
Gold has dropped nearly $50 in the last 4 sessions — showing strong bearish momentum, but is the downside exhausted? Or is this just a pause before continuation?
🔍 Macro Drivers:
Recent US–EU defense and trade agreements have weighed on gold's safe-haven appeal.
Strong US economic data has pushed USD and equities higher, redirecting flows out of precious metals.
Market sentiment is leaning short-term risk-on, which is bearish for gold – but key technical levels are approaching.
📊 Technical Context – H12 Structure:
Price broke below 3,342 key support, retested it and rejected — validating short-term supply zone.
Price is now consolidating between Sell-side liquidity (3,301–3,292) and deeper FVG/OBS zone around 3,270.
Above, multiple sell zones align at Fib 0.5–0.618 retracement with order blocks and fair value gaps.

🔴 SELL SCALP – Rejection from short-term resistance
Entry: 3,340 – 3,342
SL: 3,346
TPs: 3,335 → 3,330 → 3,325 → 3,320 → 3,310

⚠️ Risk Notes:
Watch for false breakouts/liquidity traps near session opens.
Wait for price confirmation; reaction over prediction.
Maintain disciplined risk management – this is a volatile area.

Watch for a Potential Pullback (July 23) - GOLD PLAN XAUUSD – Is the Bullish Wave Losing Steam? Watch for a Potential Pullback (July 23)
📰 Market Overview
Gold made a strong rally last night, fueled by:
Fed Chair Powell’s speech, which avoided any controversial remarks or hints about stepping down.
Rising geopolitical tensions between the US, China, and the EU, with August 1st looming as a critical deadline.
A dip in US bond yields and the dollar, giving risk assets — including gold — room to rise.
While there’s no major news on today’s calendar, the market could remain volatile within a wide range.
📉 Technical Outlook
Gold seems to be wrapping up its bullish wave as seen on the H4 chart. On the H1 and M30 timeframes, reversal candles are starting to form — an early signal of potential correction.
The short-term support at 3412 – 3410 is the key zone to watch. If that breaks and we get a clean breakdown from the trendline, a deeper pullback could be underway — possibly heading toward liquidity zones lower down.
Two main Fair Value Gap (FVG) areas on H1 are also in play as high-probability liquidity targets.
Down at the 335x region, we have a confluence of FIB 0.618 retracement and historical buying interest — making it an attractive zone for long setups if the price reacts properly.
📌 Trade Setups for Today

⚠️ Risk Reminder
With fewer news catalysts, gold may trap traders by sweeping liquidity in both directions.
Stick to your plan, follow TP/SL strictly, and avoid chasing price. Let the market come to you.
💬 Sometimes the best trade is waiting for the right level. Stay patient, stay sharp.
GOLD PLAN 21/07 – START OF THE WEEK FACES STRONG RESISTANCE GOLD PLAN 21/07 – START OF THE WEEK FACES STRONG RESISTANCE – WAIT FOR CONFIRMATION!
Market Overview:
Gold rebounded swiftly after a minor correction late last week, mainly fueled by ongoing geopolitical tensions. While there are no major economic events scheduled this week, macro headlines and global conflicts will likely drive volatility and direction for gold prices in the coming sessions.
Technical Outlook:
Price is quickly approaching a key resistance zone and may retest the Buy Side Liquidity area around 3377 – 3380.
A short-term reaction from sellers is possible, aiming to fill the Fair Value Gaps (FVG) below.
⚠️ Selling at current levels carries higher risk unless clear reversal signals appear. Patience is key!
Trading Plan for Today:
🔹 BUY ZONE: 3331 – 3329
SL: 3325
TP Targets:
3335 – 3340 – 3344 – 3348 – 3352 – 3358 – 3364 – 3370
🔹 SELL ZONE (risky – confirmation needed): 3377 – 3379
SL: 3383
TP Targets:
3372 – 3368 – 3364 – 3360 – 3350
Key Notes:
The 3347 zone currently acts as short-term support for bulls. If this breaks, gold may slide back to fill lower FVG zones.
Watch closely for volume activity during the London session to confirm intraday bias.
Always respect your SL/TP levels to protect your capital, especially early in the week when volatility can spike unpredictably.
💬 Stay patient, trust the structure, and let price come to your zones. Trading is a game of waiting, not chasing!
Good luck, traders!
GOLD WEEKLY OUTLOOK | JULY 21–25 GOLD WEEKLY OUTLOOK | JULY 21–25
Get Ready for a New Trading Week 🇮🇳
🔍 Market Recap:
Gold showed a strong bullish reversal late last week after sweeping liquidity around the FVG ZONE near 3310. Price quickly surged toward the OBS SELL ZONE around 335x–336x.
By Friday’s close, however, price reacted sharply to a confluence of technical zones (OBS + FIBO) and settled below the VPOC, hinting at a potential short-term top.
📉 Outlook for July 21–25:
📌 No major economic events are lined up next week.
⚠️ However, geopolitical tensions, global trade policies, and military news could bring sudden volatility.
Stay alert for unexpected liquidity spikes!
🧠 Technical Setup – H1 Mid-Term View:
Gold has been forming multiple Fair Value Gaps (FVGs) due to aggressive bullish moves.
While price has reached new highs, lower FVG zones remain unfilled – creating a strong possibility of a retracement.
🔁 Expected Scenario:
We may see price retrace to the 3310–3305 zone to fill these gaps, then potentially resume bullish movement.
📍 Trading Strategy for the Week:
🔸 Wait for price to enter lower FVG zones
🔸 Look for early BUY signals at key confluence areas such as:
CP zones
Fibonacci retracement levels
Volume/price reaction levels
🎯 Bullish Target Zones:
Primary target remains: 333x – 336x
If momentum continues after the pullback, we could see a move toward the Buy Side Liquidity near 3371.749
✅ Key Reminders for Indian Traders:
🚫 Avoid emotional buying at highs (no FOMO!)
📏 Stick to your TP/SL rules – risk management is critical, especially during uncertain global headlines
📊 Stay focused and trade with a plan
🌟 Wishing you a restful weekend. Come back refreshed and ready to dominate the charts next week!
🚀 Good luck & happy trading
GOLD 16/07 Minor Pullback Before PPI? Bears May Reclaim Control!GOLD 16/07 – Minor Pullback Before PPI? Bears May Reclaim Control!
🌍 Market Overview: Inflation Softens, But Risk Remains
Gold is currently trading around $3,334 after a sharp correction earlier this week. While core US CPI data for June came in lower than expected, institutions like BlackRock are signaling concerns:
The impact of new tariffs is only starting to show.
Consumer prices on appliances and electronics are rising.
As inventories shrink, businesses may pass on costs directly to consumers.
➡️ This reinforces Gold’s long-term value as a safe-haven asset, especially with rising macroeconomic risks and uncertainty around the Fed's next move.
📉 Technical Insight: Pullback or Trend Continuation?
Yesterday’s CPI release triggered a sharp drop, pushing price back to the 332x zone.
This created a Fair Value Gap (FVG) on the H1 chart.
Around the 3347–3349 level, we see a Continuation Pattern (CP) forming, hinting that the main downtrend might resume after a temporary bounce.
💡 If price returns to the 334x–336x supply zones during the London or New York session, these will be critical SELL zones. Expect price to potentially target the FVG liquidity area below 329x if bears regain control.
