Gold Breaks $3900: Safe-Haven Demand Soars & Fed Fuels the Rally📊 Market Context
Gold continues to assert its strength by breaking the psychological barrier of $3,900, becoming the central asset amidst financial and political turmoil.
US government shutdown → defensive capital flows strongly into gold.
Fed expected to cut interest rates by another 0.25 points → further strengthens the advantage for the non-yielding precious metal.
Lack of economic data → investors closely follow private reports, adding uncertainty and supporting gold's role as the “number 1 safe haven”.
👉 Market sentiment is perfectly aligned: USD under pressure, capital moving away from risky assets, BUY side FOMO continues to amplify → gold stands before the opportunity to climb and conquer the 3950–3990 range.
🔎 Technical Analysis (H1/H4)
Main trend: Strong uptrend, price holding above the rising trendline.
BUY ZONE 1: 3904–3902 → Volume CP Zone, supports momentum.
BUY ZONE 2: 3885–3883 → Retest old ATH, accumulation zone for the next rally.
SELL Zone: 3949–3950 → Liquidity Zone, prone to liquidity traps.
Extended target: 3994 (Fib 3.618).

XAU/USD Near Record Highs: Key Data AheadGold (XAU/USD) Technical Outlook – October 3, 2025
1. Macro & News Context
Gold is holding near record highs, heading for its seventh consecutive weekly gain, supported by expectations that the Federal Reserve will continue cutting rates and by concerns around the ongoing U.S. government shutdown. Spot prices have recently tested the ₹3,890–3,900 region and are now consolidating around ₹3,860.
Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) – Typically scheduled for 18:00 IST on the first Friday of the month, the September jobs report is likely to be delayed due to the U.S. government shutdown.
Key event to watch today:
ISM Services PMI (September) will be released at 19:30 IST. Since ISM data is privately produced, it will be published regardless of the shutdown and may serve as the main volatility catalyst in today’s U.S. session. 【ISM】
Labor market signals: Challenger job cut data showed lower layoffs in September, but planned hiring at the lowest level since 2009, reinforcing a softer employment backdrop. Combined with the Fed’s recent 25 bps rate cut (to 4.00%–4.25%), this continues to support the bullish gold narrative.
USD trend: The dollar has weakened broadly this week, aligning with market bets on further monetary easing. This backdrop provides an additional tailwind for gold.
2. Technical Landscape (H1 Chart)
The attached chart highlights key technical zones and a completed Harmonic XABCD pattern on the 1H timeframe:
Support levels:
Near-term: ₹3,844–3,841
Deeper: ₹3,827 (intraday pivot), ₹3,792 (strong low)
Strategic: ₹3,764–3,770 (Bullish Order Block)
Resistance levels:
Immediate: ₹3,865
Strong supply: ₹3,880–3,890 (Bearish Order Block)
Extended target: ₹3,930–3,940 (Sell Scalping | Fibo zone)
Momentum: After bouncing from point D of the harmonic structure, gold has been forming higher lows (HL). Price currently sits above the longer-term moving average and is testing the shorter-term average, suggesting a constructive short-term bias as long as supports hold.
3. Trade Scenarios
Scenario 1 – Buy-the-dip (preferred bias)
Entry zone: ₹3,844–3,841
Stop loss: Below ₹3,827 (safer: below ₹3,792)
Targets:
₹3,865 (first take-profit)
₹3,880–3,890 (major supply)
Stretch: ₹3,930–3,940
Rationale: Higher low formation, bullish macro backdrop, aligned with strong weekly uptrend.
Scenario 2 – Countertrend short at resistance
Trigger zone: ₹3,880–3,890 (Bearish OB)
Confirmation: Rejection candles (H15–H1) such as wicks, engulfing, or failed breakout.
Stop loss: Above ₹3,895–3,900 (or above ₹3,945 if price spikes into the ₹3,930–3,940 fib zone).
Targets: ₹3,865 → ₹3,844 → ₹3,827
Rationale: Potential liquidity sweep ahead of ISM, with profit-taking likely near supply zones.
Scenario 3 – Breakdown through support
Trigger: 1H close below ₹3,841
Path: ₹3,827 → ₹3,792 (Strong Low) → ₹3,764–3,770 (Bullish OB)
Rationale: Loss of intraday structure would flip bias short until major demand zones.
4. How to Trade Around Today’s Data
If NFP is indeed delayed, the 18:00 IST slot may bring limited volatility.
Focus instead on the ISM Services PMI at 19:30 IST, which could trigger sharp swings in both USD and gold.
Adjust position sizing: Expect spread widening and slippage around the release. Reduce leverage or scale into positions.
5. Risk Management
Limit risk per trade to 0.5–1% of account equity.
Avoid chasing price once levels are tested; wait for H15–H1 candle closes for confirmation.
Monitor the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) and Treasury yields – further dollar weakness would reinforce bullish gold setups.
🔑 Key Takeaway
Gold remains structurally bullish in the broader trend, with immediate support at ₹3,841–3,844 critical to maintain upside momentum. Watch for reactions around ₹3,880–3,890 and ₹3,930–3,940. With NFP possibly delayed, the ISM Services PMI at 19:30 IST will be today’s most important catalyst for directional moves.

(XAU/USD) – Gold likely to touch $4,000/oz: Ideal buying levels?1. Market Structure & Trend Outlook
On the H1 chart, gold is sustaining its bullish structure with higher highs and higher lows.
After the BoS (Break of Structure), price retraced near 3,862 Buy Zone and bounced upward.
At present, price trades above EMA34 and EMA89, keeping bullish bias intact.
2. Important Levels
Buy Zone: 3,862 – 3,865. Acts as short-term support. Holding above strengthens the bullish case.
OB1: 3,806 – 3,810. Next support in case Buy Zone breaks.
OB2: 3,763 – 3,770. Deeper support, triggered only if market corrects heavily.
Sell Scalping Zone (Fibo): 3,912. A short-term resistance, profit booking expected.
Sell Zone / ATH: 3,933 – 3,935. Breakout here may lead to fresh record highs.
3. Trade Setups
Bullish Setup: Buy on retest of 3,862 – 3,865.
SL: Below 3,850.
TP1: 3,912.
TP2: 3,933 – 3,935.
Bearish Setup (Defensive): If below 3,860, expect test of 3,806 – 3,810.
If this fails, price may decline towards 3,763 – 3,770.
4. Conclusion
Trend remains positive on H1. Best strategy: Buy on dips near support, manage SLs carefully, and book partial profits near resistances. Sustaining above 3,933 may open doors for new highs.
Bearish Pressure Builds: Gold Poised for More RetreatGold retreated sharply today as expected, and directly hit my expected retracement target of 3520-3510 area; the lowest point happened to be around 3511. We added a lot of short positions around 3575 and 3578 overnight, which helped us to make considerable profits during the gold retreat. All short positions made a total profit of 1830pips after being closed.
Since gold has begun to retreat from 3578, and the retracement has reached 670 pips in the short term, a retracement that is rare in recent times, as gold has shown obvious signs of retreat, once large funds begin to withdraw, it may trigger serious selling sentiment in the market. Taking this opportunity, the gold market may usher in a round of sharp correction. Moreover, after gold retreats, 3578 is expected to become the interim peak, which will limit the room for gold to rebound while being conducive to the downward pressure on gold.
In addition, gold rose sharply before the NFP market, probably to reserve room for the NFP market to fall, so I think gold still has the demand and space to continue to retreat, so the current decline has not ended yet, and I think the current short-term rebound provides us with good conditions for entering the short market.
According to the current structure, gold still needs to retreat after fluctuating at high levels. Therefore, in trading, we can still look for suitable opportunities to short gold during the gold rebound. First of all, we need to pay attention to the short-term resistance area of 3545-3555. Once gold cannot effectively stand in this area during the rebound, gold will also test the 3510-3500 area. After falling below this area, it is expected to continue to the 3490-3480 area.
XAU/USD – End-of-Month Trading Strategy | MMFlow TradingGold is entering a short-term correction phase as we close the month. Looking at historical data, in the last 4 months, Gold has shown deep liquidity sweeps at month-end before continuing its upward rally. Today, we could see a similar setup.
📊 Market Context:
Month-end candles often create long wicks (343x → 335x).
If price breaks below 3395, we could see deeper liquidity grabs.
US Session has PCE Data release – expected to match the previous reading. This may trigger short-term volatility, providing opportunities for intraday traders.
📌 Key Levels
🔺 Resistance (Sell Zone)
3434 – 3436 → Short-term selling opportunity.
3424 – 3435 → A breakout here opens the path to new highs.
🔻 Support (Buy Zone)
3395 – 3390 → Important intraday liquidity zone.
3376 – 3374 (VPOC Area) → Strong demand zone, likely to attract buyers.
3363 – 3355 (Deep Liquidity Zone) → Extreme scenario, less likely without major news.
📌 Trade Plan
✅ Long Setup (Buy Zone)
Entry: 3376 – 3374
Stop Loss: 3369
Targets: 3380 – 3385 – 3390 – 3400 – 3410 – 3420 – ???
🎯 This aligns with the VPOC zone, highly probable for bullish reaction.
✅ Short Setup (Sell Zone)
Entry: 3434 – 3436
Stop Loss: 3440
Targets: 3430 – 3425 – 3420 – 3410 – 3400
⚠️ Short trades are better executed in Asian & European sessions to catch the correction move before US volatility.
📍 Summary:
Watch 3395 – 3375 closely → if this holds, September could bring strong bullish momentum.
Month-end dips are often the best opportunities to position for the next ATH rally.
Patience + precise levels = high probability setups.

GOLD: What happens next for Gold?Temporary concerns cooled down during trading hours in Europe but continued before Wall Street opened, with XAU/USD trading at a low of 1,902.68 per troy ounce, which aligns closely with the lowest level in July. Ultimately, the positive tone from Wall Street finally interrupted the USD protest rally and helped XAU/USD recover from the aforementioned low level, although gains were modest amid limited selling pressure on the US currency.
06/06 - Gold upGold prices at the beginning of the trading week increased as the US dollar weakened, resulting in a decrease in the US Dollar Index.
This made gold more appealing to buyers who use other currencies.
Gold has bounced back strongly from the support level of $1,950/ounce due to disappointing economic data.
The May Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) for the US service sector fell significantly below expectations.
Business activity and new order indices have also decreased.
Bullish gold speculators are being backed by the 50-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $1,959.38, and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is fluctuating between 40.00-60.00.
I will consider buying gold around 1951-1954, this area will test again
Do you think gold will rise today?The price of gold rebounded after hitting a low point not seen in over two months.
This was due to the recent data showing that the US services sector had experienced minimal growth in May, which halted several months of strong market growth.
The weakened dollar was also beneficial to metal markets, with gold being a safe-haven asset.
However, it is expected that US interest rates will remain high this year, limiting the potential for significant gains in metal prices.
Despite this, it is possible that the value of gold will increase later in the year as the US economy weakens.
In general, in the short term, Gold can still maintain its upward momentum, if the 1950-1940 price zone can still hold the bears. Then it's not a difficult thing to crawl back to 1975 or even 1985
