XAUUSD D1 – Liquidity Rotation in Bullish ChannelLiquidity Rotation Inside a Strong Bullish Channel Gold remains in a clear long-term uptrend on the daily timeframe, trading inside a well-defined ascending channel. Recent volatility, however, suggests the market is entering a liquidity-driven correction phase rather than a trend reversal. TECHNICAL STRUCTURE On D1, price is still respecting the rising channel, with higher highs and higher lows intact. The rejection from the upper channel highlights profit-taking and sell-side liquidity absorption near premium levels. Current price action suggests a rotation between upper liquidity (distribution) and lower value zones (accumulation). KEY LIQUIDITY ZONES TO WATCH Sell-side liquidity (premium zone): 4480 – 4485 This area represents a strong liquidity cluster near the upper channel and prior expansion highs, where price has shown clear rejection. Buy-side liquidity (value zones): 4180 – 4185 A psychological level and mid-channel support where buyers may re-enter if price rotates lower. 4000 – 4005 Major long-term liquidity and Fibonacci confluence near the lower channel boundary, acting as a key structural support. EXPECTED PRICE BEHAVIOUR Short term: price may continue to fluctuate and rebalance between liquidity pools, with choppy conditions likely. Medium term: as long as price holds above the lower channel, pullbacks are considered corrective within the broader bullish trend. A clean rejection from sell liquidity followed by a move into buy liquidity would be a healthy reset for continuation later. FUNDAMENTAL & GEOPOLITICAL BACKDROP Geopolitical risk has sharply increased after former President Trump announced a large-scale US operation against Venezuela, including the arrest of President Maduro. This event adds a new layer of uncertainty to global markets and reinforces safe-haven demand. Historically, rising geopolitical tensions, combined with a softer US dollar environment, tend to support gold prices, especially on higher timeframes. BIG PICTURE VIEW Gold’s long-term bullish narrative remains intact Current moves are driven by liquidity rotation, not weakness Geopolitical risk could accelerate upside once the corrective phase completes Patience remains key. Let price move between liquidity zones before committing to the next directional leg.

XAUUSD (D1) – Elliott ABC pattern activeLana sells the pullback, waits to buy at major liquidity 💛 Quick summary Timeframe: Daily (D1) Elliott view: Price is likely developing an ABC corrective structure after a strong rally Strategy: Sell the B-wave pullback into supply, buy only when price returns to strong liquidity Context: Precious metals started 2026 strong, but short-term volatility and re-accumulation swings are still expected Fundamental backdrop (supports the bigger trend) Gold and silver opened 2026 with strong momentum, extending the best run since the late 1970s. Goldman Sachs remains bullish on precious metals and continues to highlight an aggressive long-term target (around $4,900 for gold). Lana’s key point: the long-term bull cycle can remain intact, but the market still needs healthy corrections to reset liquidity and build new structure. Technical view (D1) – Elliott ABC structure On the Daily chart, after the powerful top, gold dropped sharply, forming a clean Wave A. The current structure suggests: Wave B: a corrective rebound into resistance/supply Wave C: a potential move back down into liquidity zones before the next major direction is confirmed This ABC lens helps avoid getting trapped when the news looks bullish, but price is still in a corrective phase. Key levels from the chart 1) Sell zone (B-wave supply) Sell: 4435 – 4440 This zone aligns with marked resistance and a Fibonacci pullback cluster (0.236 / 0.382). If price retraces here and shows rejection, it’s a strong area to look for B-wave selling pressure. 2) Buy zone (major liquidity – potential C-wave completion) Buy Liquidity: 4196 – 4200 This is the strongest liquidity area on the chart. If Wave C plays out, Lana will look for buying opportunities here with clearer risk control. 3) Deeper accumulation liquidity Accumulate liquidity: the lower accumulation area highlighted on the chart If the market sweeps deeper than expected, this is the region where longer-term buyers may step in. Trading plan (Lana’s approach) Primary idea: Sell rallies into 4435–4440 if price shows weakness (B-wave rejection). Primary buy plan: Wait for price to revisit 4196–4200 and confirm support (liquidity absorption). If price breaks and holds above the sell zone, Lana stops selling and waits for a new structure to form. Note on early-year behavior The first weeks of the year often bring “messy” moves as liquidity returns and positioning resets. Lana will only trade at planned zones and avoid entries in the middle of the range. This is Lana’s personal market view and not financial advice.

GOLD/SILVER RatioChart is self explanatory. The price of the TVC:GOLD/TVC:SILVER ratio (XAU/XAG) as of January 1, 2026, is approximately 60.71. This indicates that one ounce of gold is worth roughly 60.71 ounces of silver. Over the past year, the ratio has seen a significant change, trading within a 52-week range of 54.19 to 107.27. Recent trends * Market Sentiment and Economic Conditions: When economic uncertainty is high, investors typically flock to gold as a safe-haven asset, which widens the ratio (increases the number). * Industrial Demand for Silver: Silver has significant industrial applications (electronics, solar panels), so its price often correlates with economic growth and industrial demand, which can narrow the ratio. * Relative Volatility: Silver is generally more volatile than gold ("high-beta" version of gold); in a bull market for precious metals, silver prices tend to rise faster, lowering the ratio, while in a bear market, gold prices tend to hold up better, increasing the ratio. Key Insights * Ratio Fluctuation: The gold-silver ratio is highly volatile. Historically, the all-time high was 125:1 in April 2020. * Recent Volatility: Both gold and silver have experienced significant price movements in 2025, driven by factors such as interest rate expectations, geopolitical tensions, and industrial demand for silver. * Price Influences: Domestic gold and silver prices in India are influenced by international market trends, currency exchange rates, local demand, taxes, and import duties. Gold-Silver Ratio and Future Price Predictions The gold-silver ratio (calculated by dividing the gold price by the silver price) indicates which metal may be undervalued or overvalued compared to the other and helps anticipate potential out performance. * High Ratio (e.g., above 80:1 or 90:1): Historically suggests that silver is undervalued relative to gold. This often signals a potential buying opportunity for silver, with expectations that silver's price may rise faster than gold's, causing the ratio to decrease (revert to its mean). A high ratio can also indicate economic uncertainty or a flight to gold's safe-haven appeal. * Low Ratio (e.g., below 50:1 or 60:1): Historically suggests that silver is overvalued relative to gold. This may signal a potential buying opportunity for gold, with expectations that gold may outperform silver, causing the ratio to increase. A low ratio often coincides with periods of economic optimism and stronger industrial demand for silver. Current Market Insights As of late December 2025/early January 2026, the gold-silver ratio has recently fluctuated, with reports placing it around 60.53 to 64:1, down from highs earlier in 2025 that exceeded 100:1. The sharp drop in the ratio during 2025 signaled a strong out performance by silver. * Silver Out performance Expected: Many analysts believe silver is still cheap relative to its long-term historical average ratio (around 40-60:1 or 60-80:1) and could continue to outperform gold. * Key Drivers: Silver's strong industrial demand (especially in solar panels and electronics), coupled with persistent supply deficits, provides fundamental support for its price to potentially reach higher levels like $85-$100 per ounce in the medium to long term. * Volatility and Risk: Silver is generally more volatile than gold, which means it has the potential for higher percentage gains but also larger pullbacks. Investors use the ratio as one of several tools to balance their portfolios, rather than relying on it as a sole predictor. Disclaimer: This is for demonstration and educational purpose only.

Smart Money reloading Gold after liquidity sweep?🟡 XAUUSD – Intraday Smart Money Plan | by Ryan_TitanTrader (30/12) 📈 Market Context Gold remains structurally supported on higher timeframes, but current price action reflects controlled volatility and liquidity engineering rather than trend continuation. With markets reacting to fresh U.S. data expectations, USD yield fluctuations, and ongoing geopolitical uncertainty, Gold continues to attract safe-haven interest — yet extended intraday ranges suggest Smart Money is actively positioning rather than chasing price. Recent headlines around Fed rate path uncertainty and mixed U.S. macro signals keep Gold bid on pullbacks, while thinning liquidity into the year-end session increases the likelihood of stop hunts and engineered traps on both sides of the range. Smart Money behavior favors drawing liquidity first, confirming structure later — not clean breakouts. 🔎 Technical Framework – Smart Money Structure (1H) Current Phase: HTF bullish structure with short-term corrective compression Key Idea: Expect liquidity interaction at discount (4320–4318) or reaction from internal supply (4465–4467) before any sustained displacement. Structural Notes: HTF bullish BOS remains valid Prior CHoCH triggered a corrective leg Price is compressing under bearish trendline Discount zone aligns with potential accumulation Buy-side liquidity rests above internal highs Sell-side liquidity recently probed and absorbed 💧 Liquidity Zones & Triggers • 🟢 BUY GOLD 4320 – 4318 | SL 4310 • 🔴 SELL GOLD 4465 – 4467 | SL 4475 🧠 Institutional Flow Expectation Liquidity sweep → MSS / CHoCH → BOS → displacement → FVG / OB retest → expansion 🎯 Execution Rules 🟢 BUY GOLD 4320 – 4318 | SL 4310 Rules: ✔ Liquidity grab into discount zone ✔ Bullish MSS / CHoCH on M5–M15 ✔ Clear upside BOS with impulsive displacement ✔ Entry via bullish FVG fill or refined demand OB Targets: 4360 4400 4465 – extension if USD weakens and risk sentiment deteriorates 🔴 SELL GOLD 4465 – 4467 | SL 4475 Rules: ✔ Reaction into internal supply / premium imbalance ✔ Bearish MSS / CHoCH on LTF ✔ Downside BOS with momentum shift ✔ Entry via bearish FVG refill or supply OB Targets: 4430 4385 4320 – extension if USD strengthens or yields rise ⚠️ Risk Notes Compression favors false breakouts No execution without MSS + BOS confirmation Expect volatility during U.S. session Reduce risk around USD yield spikes or Fed-related headlines Thin liquidity amplifies stop hunts 📍 Summary Gold remains bullish by structure, but today’s edge lies in patience, not prediction. Smart Money is likely to engineer liquidity before committing: • A sweep into 4320–4318 may reload longs toward 4400–4465, or • A reaction near 4465–4467 could fade price back into discount.

SELL SILVER - everyone says this, but i say only when i'm sureMarkets that run too far from their statistical/structural mean tend to revert back — especially after parabolic rallies. Classic studies show prices can overshoot by large factors before pulling back toward long-term averages. arXiv Silver in 2025 experienced extraordinary gains (~150–170%+), which is well beyond typical historical norms relative to commodities or industrial metals. Trading Economics When a rally of that magnitude climaxes, mean-reversion theory suggests: Prices overshoot the “fair value band” Sellers (especially momentum traders) begin taking profits Volatility spikes increase backwardation/short squeezes This is exactly what has been happening recently — sharp pullbacks, volatility, and aggressive liquidation.

Gold 1H – Smart Money targets 4040 liquidity🟡 XAUUSD – Intraday Smart Money Plan | by Ryan_TitanTrader (30/12) 📈 Market Context Gold has suffered a sharp breakdown following year-end positioning flows, marking its largest single-day drop in weeks. According to today’s hot ForexFactory update, bearish momentum is accelerating as price decisively breaks below key technical levels, with downside targets now aligning toward the $4040–4050 liquidity zone. This move appears driven less by fresh macro catalysts and more by portfolio rebalancing, profit-taking, and thin liquidity conditions, typical of late-December trading. Despite some dip-buying interest emerging intraday, the broader flow suggests distribution rather than accumulation, keeping Gold vulnerable to further downside sweeps before any sustainable recovery. Smart Money behavior in this environment favors selling continuation with corrective pullbacks, rather than impulsive trend reversals. 🔎 Technical Framework – Smart Money Structure (1H) Current Phase: Bearish displacement after HTF distribution Key Idea: Sell premium pullbacks; buy only at deep discount liquidity Structural Notes: • Clear CHoCH confirmed after loss of prior bullish structure • Strong bearish displacement created inefficiencies below • Previous bullish trendline invalidated • Price trading below equilibrium, attempting weak corrective retrace • Internal liquidity partially cleared; external selling liquidity rests below • Resistance zone aligns with prior supply and breakdown origin 💧 Liquidity Zones & Triggers • 🔴 SELL GOLD 4480 – 4490 | SL 4500 • 🟢 BUY GOLD 4310 – 4320 | SL 4300 🧠 Institutional Flow Expectation Liquidity sweep → MSS / CHoCH → BOS → displacement → FVG / OB retest → continuation 🎯 Execution Rules (matching your exact zones) 🔴 SELL GOLD 4480 – 4490 | SL 4500 Rules: ✔ Pullback into premium resistance / supply ✔ Bearish MSS or CHoCH on M5–M15 ✔ Downside BOS with impulsive displacement ✔ Entry via bearish FVG refill or refined supply OB Targets: 4420 4370 4310 – extension if bearish momentum persists 🟢 BUY GOLD 4310 – 4320 | SL 4300 Rules: ✔ Selling liquidity sweep into deep discount ✔ Bullish MSS / CHoCH confirms absorption ✔ Upside BOS with strong bullish displacement ✔ Entry via bullish FVG fill or demand OB retest Targets: 4370 4420 4480 – only if structure flips bullish ⚠️ Risk Notes • Bearish momentum dominates after structural breakdown • Year-end liquidity increases fake pullbacks and stop hunts • No trade without MSS + BOS confirmation • Expect volatility during U.S. session and around USD yield headlines • Reduce position size if volatility expands unexpectedly 📍 Summary Gold has transitioned from accumulation to distribution, with Smart Money now favoring downside continuation toward deeper liquidity pools. The plan is clear: • Sell premium pullbacks at 4480–4490, or • Buy only at deep discount 4310–4320 after confirmation Let liquidity be engineered. Let structure confirm intent. Smart Money waits — retail reacts. ⚡️ 📌 Follow Ryan_TitanTrader for daily Smart Money gold breakdowns.

Gold Holds Rising Channel – Upside Targets Still OpenGold is trading inside a clean rising channel, forming clear higher highs and higher lows, which confirms that the overall trend remains bullish. Instead of chasing breakouts, price is now doing what strong trends usually do, pause and consolidate before the next move. The marked buying zone sits perfectly inside the rising channel and has already acted as a strong demand area. As long as Gold holds above this zone, buyers remain in control and upside continuation remains the higher probability scenario. Upside targets are aligned with the channel resistance, which adds further confidence to this setup. These types of structures often reward traders who wait for pullbacks rather than reacting emotionally to fast candles. A breakdown below the marked invalidation level would weaken this bullish view, but until then, the structure favors patience and trend-following. Key Levels to Watch Best Buying Range: 4519–4515 1st Target: 4535 2nd Target: 4553 Final Target: 4570 Structure Invalidation: Below 4497 Trend Bias: Bullish above support Disclaimer: This analysis is for educational purposes only and should not be taken as financial advice.

XAUUSD (H1) – Monday Trading StrategyLana prioritizes selling setups until a new high is broken. Quick summary Technical context: Price has pulled back strongly from the All-Time High, showing short-term weakness. Daily bias: Sell on rallies, until price breaks and holds above a new high. Key events: Speech from U.S. President Trump and updates related to U.S.–China trade may increase volatility. News impact – what to watch Trump’s speech: Often drives short-term USD sentiment through comments on growth, tariffs, and inflation. Gold may react sharply to headline risk. U.S.–China trade activity (CCPIT): Any improvement in trade sentiment can support USD in the short term, adding pressure to gold. Rising tensions would favor gold as a safe haven. Because of this, Lana will focus on price reaction at key zones rather than predicting the news outcome. Technical analysis (H1) Gold printed a new All-Time High and then sold off aggressively, signaling profit-taking near the top. Price is now consolidating within a corrective structure, where selling rallies remains the higher-probability play. Key zones identified on the chart: Sell zone: 4529 – 4531 Buy reaction zone: 4498 – 4500 (support) Trading plan for Monday Primary scenario – Sell rallies Sell: 4529 – 4531 This zone is expected to act as resistance during the current correction. Bias change condition: Only shift to a bullish continuation if price breaks above the previous high and holds. Secondary scenario – Short-term buy reaction Buy: 4498 – 4500 This is considered a scalp-only setup, as the overall intraday bias remains bearish. Session notes Asian session may remain slow, while volatility is likely to increase around the scheduled events. Best trades are expected when price returns to planned zones rather than trading in the middle of the range. This analysis reflects Lana’s personal market view and is not financial advice.

XAUUSD (H4) – Trading Rising ChannelLana focuses on pullback buys for the week ahead 💛 Weekly overview Primary trend (H4): Strong bullish structure, price is respecting a clean ascending channel Current state: Price is trading near ATH and Fibonacci extensions → short-term reactions are possible Weekly strategy: No FOMO. Lana prefers buying pullbacks at value zones, not chasing highs Market context Recent comments from the U.S. highlight strong economic growth and confidence in trade policies. While such statements can influence USD sentiment, gold at year-end is often driven more by liquidity conditions and technical structure than headlines. With holiday liquidity thinning out, price movements can become sharper and less predictable. That’s why this week Lana stays disciplined and trades strictly based on structure and key levels. Technical view based on the chart (H4) On the H4 timeframe, gold is moving smoothly within a rising channel, consistently forming higher lows. The strong impulse leg has already completed its psychological breakout phase, and price is now hovering near the upper area of the channel. Key points: Fibonacci extension zones near the top act as psychological resistance, where temporary pullbacks are normal. The best opportunities remain inside the channel, around value and liquidity zones. Key levels Lana is watching this week Primary buy zone – Value Area (VL) Buy: 4482 – 4485 This is a value zone within the rising channel. If price pulls back here and holds structure, continuation to the upside becomes more likely. Safer buy zone – POC (Volume Profile) Buy: 4419 – 4422 This POC zone shows heavy prior accumulation. If volatility increases or price corrects deeper, this area offers a more conservative buy opportunity. Psychological resistance to respect 4603 – 4607: Fibonacci extension & psychological barrier At this zone, a short-term rejection or liquidity grab is possible before the next directional move. Weekly trading plan (Lana’s approach) Buy only on pullbacks into planned zones, with confirmation on lower timeframes. Avoid chasing price near ATH or psychological resistance. Reduce position size and manage risk carefully during low-liquidity holiday sessions. Lana’s note 🌿 The trend is strong, but discipline at the entry is everything. If price doesn’t return to my zones, I’m happy to stay patient and wait. This is Lana’s personal market view, not financial advice. Always manage your own risk. 💛

Gold in Final Bullish Wave – Last Push Higher ExpectedGold (XAU/USD 4H) is in a strong bullish trend and is currently moving in the last part of Wave (5). The clear breakout above the previous resistance shows that buyers are in control, and the bullish structure is still valid. As long as the price stays above the main support area, the outlook remains positive, with the next target around 4,580–4,650 , where this upward move is likely to finish. For short-term trades, a sensible stop-loss can be placed below 4,420 , while the bullish view becomes invalid if the price falls below 4,360 . If everything goes as expected, Gold should make one final move higher and then take a normal corrective pullback (A-B-C) after the strong rally. Stay tuned! @Money_Dictators Thank you :)

XAU/USD – Bullish trend, focus on Buying the DipMarket Context Gold remains in a bullish environment, trading within an ascending structure. The recent pullback appears to be a technical retracement after an impulsive move, not a trend reversal. From a fundamental perspective, expectations of a more accommodative Fed continue to weigh on the USD, keeping gold supported on dips. This backdrop favors trend-following BUY strategies rather than aggressive SELLs. Technical Structure (H1) Overall structure remains Higher High – Higher Low Price is holding above the ascending trendline No confirmed bearish Break of Structure Current phase = rebalancing / pullback within uptrend Key Zones on Chart OBS BUY Zone: 4,483 – 4,475 Deeper Support: 4,457 Near Resistance: 4,515 Upper Resistance / Target: 4,534 Major Supply: 4,566 Trading Plan – MMF Style Primary Scenario – Trend Continuation BUY Wait for price to pull back into the OBS BUY zone (4,483 – 4,475) Look for bullish reaction / structure hold on lower timeframes This zone aligns with demand + trend support Targets TP1: 4,515 TP2: 4,534 TP3: 4,566 (expect reaction / profit-taking) Alternative Scenario If price breaks above 4,534 with acceptance → Expect a push toward 4,566, but avoid chasing at premium Invalidation A H1 close below 4,457 would weaken the bullish structure and shift bias to neutral. Summary Gold remains bullish as long as structure support holds. The priority is to buy pullbacks at key demand zones, manage risk near resistance, and avoid emotional entries at the highs.

Gold 1H – Smart Money Traps Near 4540–4450 Range🟡 XAUUSD – Intraday Smart Money Plan | by Ryan_TitanTrader (23/12) 📈 Market Context Gold remains structurally bullish on the higher timeframes, but price is now trading inside a compression zone after a clear impulsive expansion. With year-end liquidity thinning and traders positioning ahead of fresh Fed rate expectations and USD yield fluctuations, Gold is vulnerable to liquidity manipulation rather than clean continuation. Recent USD softness and mixed macro headlines keep Gold supported, yet extended pricing near highs increases the probability of stop hunts on both sides before the next decisive move. Smart Money behavior here favors range engineering — drawing in breakout traders above highs and shaking out impatient long positions below key demand — before revealing true intent. 🔎 Technical Framework – Smart Money Structure (1H) Current Phase: Bullish HTF structure with short-term distribution Key Idea: Expect liquidity interaction at premium (4540–4542) or discount (4450–4448) before displacement Structural Notes: • Higher-timeframe bullish BOS remains intact • Recent CHoCH signals short-term distribution risk • Price is trading in premium, extended from equilibrium • Clear impulsive leg left unmitigated inefficiencies below • A defined scalping range has formed between premium and discount • Liquidity rests clearly above 4540 and below 4450 Liquidity Zones & Triggers: • 🔴 SELL GOLD 4540 – 4542 | SL 4560 • 🟢 BUY GOLD 4450 – 4448 | SL 4440 🧠 Institutional Flow Expectation: Liquidity sweep → MSS / CHoCH → BOS → displacement → FVG / OB retest → expansion 🎯 Execution Rules (matching your exact zones) 🔴 SELL GOLD 4540 – 4542 | SL 4560 Rules: ✔ Sweep above premium buy-side liquidity ✔ Bearish MSS / CHoCH on M5–M15 ✔ Clear downside BOS with impulsive displacement ✔ Entry via bearish FVG refill or refined supply OB Targets: 1. 4510 2. 4485 3. 4450 – extension if USD strengthens or yields push higher 🟢 BUY GOLD 4450 – 4448 | SL 4440 Rules: ✔ Liquidity grab into discount and prior demand ✔ Bullish MSS / CHoCH confirms demand control ✔ Upside BOS with strong bullish displacement ✔ Entry via bullish FGV fill or demand OB retest Targets: 1. 4480 2. 4510 3. 4540 – extension if USD weakens and bullish flow resumes ⚠️ Risk Notes • Premium trading increases fake breakout probability • No entry without MSS + BOS confirmation • Expect volatility during U.S. session and thin year-end liquidity • Reduce risk around Fed-driven or USD yield headlines 📍 Summary Gold is still bullish by structure, but current price action signals liquidity games inside a defined range. Smart Money is likely to engineer stops before expansion: • A sweep above 4540 may fade back toward 4485–4450, or • A liquidity grab near 4450 could reload long positions toward 4510–4540+ Let price show intent — Smart Money waits, retail reacts. ⚡️ 📌 Follow @Ryan_TitanTrader for daily Smart Money gold breakdowns.

Gold 1H – Traps form near 4500–4420.Gold 1H – Liquidity Compression Sets Traps Around 4500–4420 🟡 XAUUSD – Intraday Smart Money Plan | by Ryan_TitanTrader (23/12) 📈 Market Context Gold is trading inside a strong bullish structure after a clean impulsive expansion, currently hovering in a premium zone near recent highs. With price extended from the mean, the market is vulnerable to liquidity engineering rather than immediate continuation. CPI uncertainty and mixed USD flows continue to reduce directional conviction, favoring stop hunts at key psychological levels instead of clean breakouts. This environment often rewards patience and confirmation-based execution rather than anticipation. Smart Money is likely to manipulate both sides of the range — sweeping late buyers above 4500 or shaking out weak longs into the 4420 discount before the next meaningful expansion. 🔎 Technical Framework – Smart Money Structure (1H) Current Phase: Bullish structure with signs of short-term distribution Key Idea: Expect liquidity interaction at 4500–4502 (premium) or 4420–4418 (discount) before displacement Structural Notes: • Higher-timeframe bullish BOS remains intact • Price is trading deep in premium, extended from equilibrium • Clear impulsive leg created unmitigated FVGs below current price • Momentum is slowing near highs → distribution risk • Liquidity is resting clearly above 4500 and below 4420 Liquidity Zones & Triggers: • 🔴 SELL GOLD 4500 – 4502 | SL 4510 • 🟢 BUY GOLD 4420 – 4418 | SL 4410 🧠 Institutional Flow Expectation: Liquidity sweep → MSS / CHoCH → BOS → displacement → FVG / OB retest → expansion 🎯 Execution Rules (matching your exact zones) 🔴 SELL GOLD 4500 – 4502 | SL 4510 Rules: ✔ Sweep above psychological 4500 buy-side liquidity ✔ Bearish MSS / CHoCH on M5–M15 ✔ Clear downside BOS with impulsive displacement ✔ Entry via bearish FVG refill or refined supply OB Targets: 1. 4470 2. 4450 3. 4420 – extension if USD firms or risk-off accelerates 🟢 BUY GOLD 4420 – 4418 | SL 4410 Rules: ✔ Liquidity grab into discount and bullish structure support ✔ Bullish MSS / CHoCH confirms demand control ✔ Upside BOS with strong bullish displacement ✔ Entry via bullish FVG fill or demand OB retest Targets: 1. 4450 2. 4475 3. 4500 – extension if USD weakens and bullish flow resumes ⚠️ Risk Notes • Extended bullish moves increase fake breakout probability • No entry without MSS + BOS confirmation • Expect volatility during U.S. session • Reduce risk around CPI-related or Fed-driven headlines 📍 Summary Gold remains structurally bullish, but trading at premium levels where conviction is fragile.
