Gold (XAUUSD) ABCD Completion Near 5000 – Major Sell Zone Ahead Gold has been in a strong long-term bullish trend, driven by macro uncertainty and persistent demand. However, from a structural and harmonic perspective, price is now approaching a critical long-term resistance zone near the 5000 level, where a bearish ABCD pattern is nearing completion. The current rally appears to be the final leg (CD) of the ABCD structure. Completion around the psychological 5000 round number also aligns with historical extension behavior and potential exhaustion after an extended impulsive move. Primary Scenario: Watch for price rejection, reversal patterns, or bearish confirmation near the 5000 region. A confirmed rejection could open the door for a long-term corrective move, potentially targeting the previous demand / consolidation zone. Invalidation: A strong acceptance and sustained close well above 5000 would invalidate the bearish ABCD outlook and suggest continuation higher.

Gold Rotating After CHoCH – Liquidity Controls the FlowGold is currently trading in a post-impulse, post-breakout environment. After the earlier expansion and BOS, price did not continue trending cleanly. Instead, it transitioned into sideways consolidation, signaling Smart Money rebalancing rather than continuation. This is not indecision — this is liquidity management.

XAUUSD (H4) — Bond Selloff, Yields UpPullback Opportunity or Rejection at the Top? Gold is still holding a bullish structure on the H4 chart, but the rebound in global yields can easily trigger sharp swings around key resistance. Today’s approach is simple: trade the zones, not the noise. I. Executive Summary Primary trend: H4 uptrend remains intact. Trading bias: Prefer BUY on pullbacks into demand; consider SELL only with clear rejection at Fibonacci resistance. Key zones: Sell: 4774–4778 Buy: 4666–4670 Value Buy: 4620–4625 Rule: Enter only after zone touch + confirmation (rejection / micro-structure shift). II. Macro & Fundamentals (optimized & concise) Global bond selloff: Bond selling is spreading globally; Japan’s 40-year JGB yield hitting 4% signals broad, persistent yield pressure. US yields rebounding: Higher US yields (10Y–30Y) raise the opportunity cost of holding gold → short-term bearish pressure for XAUUSD. Risk premium still alive: Geopolitical tension and tariff headlines keep markets sensitive, supporting defensive flows and limiting deep downside. Fundamental takeaway: Rising yields can drive a pullback, but the broader risk backdrop favors a correction within an uptrend, not a full reversal (unless structure breaks). III. Technical Structure (from your chart) 1) H4 overview Price is extended after a strong impulse and is now consolidating, while structure still prints Higher Highs / Higher Lows. The ascending trendline remains supportive → the higher-probability play is buying dips into demand rather than chasing price. 2) Key zones Fibonacci Sell zone: 4774 – 4778 (major supply / resistance — profit-taking and rejection risk) Buy zone: 4666 – 4670 (shallow pullback within trend) VL / Value Buy: 4620 – 4625 (deeper pullback — higher-quality dip if yields spike again) Lower support zones remain a contingency for a deeper flush. IV. Trading Plan (Brian style — 2 scenarios) ⭐️ PRIORITY SCENARIO — BUY (trend continuation) Idea: As long as the H4 uptrend holds, look to buy pullbacks into demand with confirmation. Option A — Buy pullback: 4666 – 4670 SL: below 4620 (more conservative: below 4616–4610 depending on volatility/spread) TP: 4716 – 4740 – 4774 – 4800 Option B — Value Buy (if a deeper sweep happens): 4620 – 4625 SL: below the nearest H4 swing low / below 460x (risk preference dependent) TP: 4666 – 4716 – 4774 – 4800 Confirmation cues (optional): Strong rejection wick at the buy zone, or H1 micro-structure break back to the upside, or Liquidity sweep then close back above the zone. ⭐️ ALTERNATIVE SCENARIO — SELL (rejection at Fibonacci resistance) Idea: With yields rising, gold may react sharply at the top — treat this as a reaction trade, not a macro trend reversal call. Sell zone: 4774 – 4778 (SELL only if price rejects clearly) SL: above 4788 – 4800 TP: 4740 – 4716 – 4670 Important: If H4 closes and holds above 4778 (acceptance), the bias shifts to buying pullbacks instead of forcing shorts.

GOLD - Breakout Continues, Bullish Momentum Remains StrongGold prices have attracted fresh buying interest for a second consecutive session, reaching a new all-time high and currently trading around $4,710. The key driver behind gold’s strength is the ongoing global geopolitical and trade uncertainty. Hawkish statements regarding U.S. tariffs and foreign policy, along with the risk of escalating tensions among major economies, have significantly boosted safe-haven demand. In this environment, gold continues to reaffirm its role as a store of value, drawing strong attention from investors worldwide. Beyond political factors, investment flows into precious metals are clearly increasing. Global gold ETF holdings have risen steadily over recent weeks, signaling long-term market confidence. Notably, strong buying demand from Asia—especially China—is viewed as a major pillar supporting gold’s sustained upward momentum. 🔎 Key Economic Events to Watch This Week Wednesday: U.S. President Donald Trump speaks at the WEF; U.S. Pending Home Sale Thursday: U.S. Q3 GDP (final reading), PCE Price Index, Weekly Jobless Claims Friday: U.S. S&P Preliminary Manufacturing and Services PMI

Gold Trapped in Liquidity Range – Expansion PendingGold is currently trading in a post-impulse environment after completing a clear Elliott Wave advance. With the higher-timeframe impulse exhausted, price action has transitioned into a controlled consolidation driven by liquidity, rather than trend continuation. At this stage, the market is not trending — it is preparing. Market Structure & Liquidity Context Price is now boxed between a well-defined Equal High and Equal Low, forming a classic liquidity range. This structure suggests that Smart Money is engineering both sides of liquidity before committing to the next directional move. The upper range aligns with premium pricing, where buy-side liquidity is resting. The lower range sits in discount territory, overlapping with higher-timeframe demand. This environment favors rotation and stop-hunt behavior, not impulsive expansion. Key Trading Scenarios 🔴 Sell reaction at the highs If price pushes above the Equal High and taps into the 4688–4690 premium zone , this area is expected to attract sell-side interest. A clear rejection or hesitation here would signal that buy-side liquidity has been taken, opening the door for a rotation back into the range. 🟢 Buy reaction at the lows If price drops and reaches the 4388–4390 discount zone , this level becomes a key area to watch for support. Strong rejection or stabilization would suggest Smart Money defense, favoring a bounce back toward equilibrium. Expectation & Bias This is a rotation market, not a trend market. Directional continuation should only be expected after a clear break and acceptance outside the range. Until then: Patience > prediction Liquidity > indicators Reaction > anticipation Let price show its hand. 💬 Do you expect expansion to come from the highs or the lows first? Your perspective matters — share your view.

MCX Silver: Healthy Dip Before Next RallyMCX Silver is in a strong long-term uptrend on the daily chart. The market has already completed wave 1, 2, and a strong wave 3 upward. After this big rise, price is now expected to make a normal correction (wave 4). This pullback can come toward the 236,000 area, which is an important support zone. As long as price stays above this support, the overall trend remains bullish. After wave 4 is completed, Silver is expected to start wave 5, which can push prices to new highs. In short, the trend is up, and any dip is a healthy correction, not weakness. Stay Tuned :) @Money_Dictators

Gold weekly rotation between 4682 supply and 4420 demand🟡 XAUUSD – Weekly Smart Money Plan | by Ryan_TitanTrader (17/01) 📈 Market Context Gold remains structurally bullish on the higher timeframe, but weekly price action has clearly transitioned into a controlled Smart Money rotation. After delivering buy-side liquidity into premium, continuation has stalled. This week’s hot drivers — USD volatility, U.S. yield repricing, and renewed Fed rate-cut expectations amid sticky inflation data and geopolitical hedging flows — are creating ideal conditions for inducement and liquidity engineering rather than clean trend expansion. With risk sentiment fragile and positioning crowded, Gold is behaving typically at extremes: sweeps, fake breaks, and mean reversion, not impulsive continuation. 🔎 Technical Framework – Smart Money Structure (H4–H1) Current Phase: HTF bullish bias remains valid, but internal structure shows distribution from premium after liquidity delivery. Key Idea: Sell reactions from premium supply, or wait patiently for a deeper pullback into HTF demand to reload longs.

With markets reacting to today’s hot drivers — U.S. inflation expectations, USD volatility, and shifting Treasury yields — Smart Money is no longer chasing upside.

Market Update: Gold The Battle at 4600After an explosive breakout to new all time highs, Gold is currently in a classic breather phase, sustaining its position remarkably well above the previous ATH. We are seeing a high-tight consolidation essentially a Bullish Flag forming on the daily chart. This suggests that the market is merely digesting recent gains and building the necessary energy for the next leg higher. Despite the broader bullish sentiment fueled by recent geopolitical tensions in Iran and the "Powell Probe" investigation into the Fed, the bulls have hit a temporary ceiling. The 4600 level has emerged as the immediate line in the sand. On a daily closing basis, we are seeing consistent rejection here; the price is struggling to print a solid candle body above this psychological milestone. For a high conviction continuation, we need to see a clear daily close above 4600. Once this horizontal resistance is cleared, the structural path opens up toward the Monthly R2 at 4731. On the flip side, the downside remains well protected. The Monthly R1 (4526) area is our primary support zone. As long as we hold above this on a daily close basis, the buy the dip mentality remains the dominant play. The mix of sticky CPI data and safe haven rotation keeps the floor solid, even if the bullish wave continuation requires a bit more patience.

Gold reaches new ATH — Smart Money rotates.🟡 XAUUSD – Intraday Smart Money Plan | by Ryan_TitanTrader (13/01) 📈 Market Context Gold has officially printed a new All-Time High (ATH), confirming higher-timeframe bullish dominance. However, after delivering buy-side liquidity into premium, price action is no longer impulsive. Instead, Smart Money is transitioning into controlled distribution and rotation, engineering liquidity rather than chasing continuation. With price stretched deep into premium and resting above prior structure, today’s environment favors liquidity sweeps, inducement, and mean reversion, not blind breakout trading. Execution must be precise, level-based, and confirmation-driven. 🔎 Technical Framework – Smart Money Structure (H1–M15) Current Phase: HTF bullish structure intact, but intraday corrective rotation active from premium after ATH print. Key Idea: Expect Smart Money to distribute near ATH supply (4630–4632), or rebalance deeply into discount (4492–4490) before the next expansion leg.

XAUUSD H4 – Correction, then ExpansionXAUUSD H4 – Pullback Then Continuation Using Fibonacci and Key Levels Gold remains in a strong bullish trend on H4, but the current structure suggests the market needs a pullback into liquidity before the next expansion leg. Market View The recent rally has pushed price into premium territory, which often triggers short-term profit-taking. Fibonacci extensions are acting as liquidity magnets: 2.618 is a key reaction zone, while 3.618 is the next expansion target. Main approach: wait for the pullback into support/buy zones, then follow the trend. Key Levels to Watch Near resistance: 4546–4550 (reaction zone / key resistance) Sell reaction zone: 4632–4637 (Fibonacci 2.618, likely to cause volatility) Expansion target: 4707 (Fibonacci 3.618) Buy liquidity zone: 4445–4449 (best buy area in this structure) Strong support: 4408 (critical defensive support) Scenario 1 – Shallow Pullback, Then Push Higher Idea: price pulls back lightly, holds structure, and resumes the uptrend quickly. Preferred pullback zone: 4546–4550 Expectation: move back up toward 4632–4637, and if absorbed, extend toward 4707 Confirmation to watch: H4 candles hold above 4546–4550 with clear buying response (rejection wicks, strong closes, momentum return) Scenario 2 – Deeper Pullback to Sweep Liquidity, Then Strong Rally Idea: price sweeps deeper into the best demand zone before the next major leg. Deep pullback zone: 4445–4449 Expectation: bounce back to 4546–4550 → then push to 4632–4637 → and potentially extend to 4707 Confirmation to watch: strong reaction at 4445–4449 (buyers absorb, structure holds, no clean breakdown) Important Notes 4632–4637 is a sensitive zone where profit-taking and sharp swings can appear before continuation. If price breaks and holds below 4445–4449, shift focus to 4408 to judge whether the bullish structure is still being defended. Conclusion The main trend is still bullish, but the best edge comes from waiting for a pullback and buying at key levels. Focus zones: 4546–4550 (shallow pullback) and 4445–4449 (deep pullback with better R:R). If Fibonacci expansion continues, the next upside target is 4707.

HIND ZINC SHORT TRADE -RISKYTechnical Analysis Parabolic Extension: The stock has seen a massive, nearly vertical rally from the ~400 levels to highs near 670 in a very short span. Such parabolic moves are rarely sustainable without a significant correction or consolidation phase. Rejection at Highs: The price action shows a sharp pullback from the recent high of 661.55, indicating that profit booking is kicking in and buyers are exhausted at these elevated levels. Risk/Reward Ratio: The current setup offers a favorable Risk/Reward ratio for a short position. The stop loss is tight relative to the potential downside move as the stock attempts to revert to the mean. Volume Profile: High volume during the ascent suggests strong participation, but upcoming sessions should be watched for distribution volume (selling pressure) to confirm the top. Trade Setup (Short) Entry Zone: 661 (Looking for rejection near the highs) Stop Loss: 697.40 (Strict SL above recent swing high to protect against a "blow-off top") Target: 564.45 (Targeting the gap fill/retracement to previous structure support) Potential R:R: ~ 1:2.6 ⚠️ Disclaimer: This chart analysis is shared for educational and informational purposes only.

XAUUSD: Bullish Breakout Confirmed? New ATH in Play!As anticipated in our weekly analysis, Gold started the week with a bang, opening with a positive gap and aggressively smashing through the previous All Time High of 4550. We are currently trading in "uncharted territory," and the price action is screaming bullish across all major timeframes. 🔍 Market Context & Drivers The surge isn't just technical; the fundamental backdrop is fueling this "fear trade": Geopolitical Flare-up: Tensions are peaking as the U.S. considers military options in Iran following recent unrest, alongside ongoing frictions in Venezuela. Safe-Haven Inflow: Growing concerns over the Federal Reserve’s independence and the U.S. Supreme Court’s upcoming ruling on tariffs (expected Wednesday) are pushing investors toward the safety of gold. Dovish Tailwinds: Last Friday's soft NFP data (only 50k jobs added) has cemented expectations for further Fed rate cuts, lowering the opportunity cost for holding Gold. 🛠 Trading Strategy The trend is clearly your friend here. Since we have successfully breached the 4550 barrier, the focus shifts to the Daily Close. The Confirmation: We need a solid Daily candle closing above 4550. This validates the breakout and traps the late sellers. Buy the Dip: If we see a retest of the 4550-4540 area, it’s a high-probability "buy on dip" zone. The Target: Once the breakout is confirmed, our primary objective is the Monthly R2 at 4731, with a secondary long-term target eyeing the 5000 milestone. Immediate Target// 4731 Monthly R2 Pivot & psychological extension. Breakout Zone// 4550 Previous ATH; Must close above this on the Daily to confirm. Primary Support// 4550 - 4540 The "Flip Zone" (Old Resistance becoming New Support). Major Support// 4500 Psychological handle & secondary structural floor.

Why breakout entries fail (and how I wait for confirmation)Most breakout losses happen because entries are too early. Instead of chasing the breakout, I wait for: 1) A clearly defined range 2) A clean breakout 3) Pullback / acceptance into the range 4) Continuation confirmation This simple framework helps avoid fake moves and improves risk–reward. I later automated this process into a private tool to remove subjectivity, but the logic itself is what matters most. This chart shows one example on XAUUSD using a higher timeframe.
