MACRO FX COMPARISON: DXY vs AUDUSDMACRO FX COMPARISON: DXY vs AUDUSD – WHAT STRUCTURAL CHANGE REALLY MATTERS This is a structure-first, educational view comparing DXY and AUDUSD to understand the broader macro environment — and why most “USD reversal” narratives are premature. No forecasts. No trade calls. Only structure. 🔹 DXY – TIME CORRECTION, NOT TREND REVERSAL DXY remains locked inside a large corrective / overlapping structure. Price action shows range expansion in time, not impulsive price discovery. Momentum (RSI) confirms compression, not trend acceleration. Key point: A sideways or corrective DXY does not automatically mean USD weakness — it means indecision in trend. 🔹 AUDUSD – MACRO CONFIRMATION FROM FX On higher timeframes (Quarterly / Monthly), AUDUSD remains within a long-term corrective structure. Multiple upside attempts have failed to transition into an impulsive trend. Momentum remains muted — consistent with macro consolidation, not a new bull cycle. Important insight: If USD were entering a true bearish phase, AUDUSD would already be trending impulsively. It is not. 🔹 WHY THIS COMPARISON MATTERS Looking at DXY alone can be misleading. FX pairs like AUDUSD act as structural confirmation tools. Right now: DXY = correcting in time AUDUSD = trapped in macro correction No FX pair shows a clean impulsive USD breakdown This combination defines a non-trending USD environment, not a trend reversal. 🔹 WHAT WOULD ACTUALLY COUNT AS A STRUCTURAL CHANGE? Only the following would matter structurally: ✅ DXY Clean impulsive breakdown Loss of key higher-timeframe support with follow-through Momentum expansion, not divergence ✅ AUDUSD Clear 5-wave impulsive advance Sustained breakout from long-term corrective boundaries RSI regime shift above prior ranges Until then: The macro remains in transition, not resolution. 🔹 BOTTOM LINE Current FX behaviour reflects time-based correction, not trend exhaustion. Structural patience is required. Noise increases near transitions — structure filters it out. This is a study of market structure, not a trading signal. #AUDUSD #DXY #ForexAnalysis #MarketStructure #ElliottWave #StructureOverPrediction #PriceAction #EducationalAnalysis

XAU/USD: Watch for SELL after strong drop rebound◆ Market Context (M30) Gold has just experienced a strong displacement-type drop, breaking the previous upward structure. The current increase is only a technical pullback, not enough to confirm a trend reversal. ◆ Structure & Cash Flow (SMC) • The previous peak created a Lower High, confirming the short-term structure has shifted to bearish. • Price is retracing to the Fibonacci 0.5 – 0.618 zone, coinciding with the old supply/distribution zone. • This is an area prone to SELL-side reaction if there is no clear breakout. ◆ Key Levels • Sell Zone (Fibo 0.5 – 0.618): ~4,435 – 4,445 • Current Price: ~4,379 • Nearest Bottom (Liquidity): ~4,300 • Invalid SELL scenario: M30 closes above 4,445 ◆ Trading Scenarios ➤ Scenario 1 – SELL pullback (priority) • Wait for price to retrace to 4,435 – 4,445 • Appearance of rejection candle/small breakdown → watch for SELL • Targets: 4,360 → 4,330 → 4,300 • SL: above 4,445 ➤ Scenario 2 – Do not SELL if… • If price breaks and holds above 4,445 → Bearish scenario is invalidated, wait for a new structure to form. ◆ Summary • Main bias: Bearish – sell on pullback. • The current increase is just a technical rebound after a strong sell-off. • Avoid BUY against the trend when there is no clear upward CHoCH.

This stock is a good buySAIL CMP 137.45 Connie always says never use Elliott alone. The other tools are painting a bullish outlook on this counter. Hence the rally from the bottom is 1's and 2's and not ABC that I was marking them. RSI - the oscillator is now oscillating within the bull zone and that is telling me the trend is up. MA- the stock is above the three MA's both on the weekly and monthly charts and is positive. Volume - huge volume at the bottom is accumulation. Gap- A weekly close above 144 will be very positive for this counter. Conclusion - With metals moving north, in my view this stock should move up very strongly.

GBPUSD: C Wave Unfolding Inside a Corrective ChannelGBPUSD continues to trade within a well-defined corrective channel. The current advance fits best as a C wave in progress, following a completed A–B sequence. Price remains contained within the corrective structure, and momentum shows no signs of terminal exhaustion yet. As long as the channel holds, further upside within this corrective phase remains possible. A structural breakout or loss of channel support will be required to reassess the larger trend. 📌 Focus remains on structure, not prediction. ⚠️ DISCLAIMER This analysis is for educational and structural study purposes only. It is not financial advice or a trade recommendation. Markets involve risk — always manage exposure responsibly. #GBPUSD #ElliottWave #CorrectiveStructure #MarketStructure #ForexAnalysis

SIEMENS: Multi-Timeframe Compression After Strong TrendWeekly View Price has tested the same supply zone multiple times, showing diminishing upside momentum. While this resembles distribution, there is no confirmed weekly breakdown yet. Trend damage is visible, but reversal is not confirmed. Daily View Price is consolidating near the lower end of the range with EMA compression. This indicates balance and volatility contraction rather than outright weakness. A directional move is likely once price exits this range. Monthly View After a strong uptrend, the large red candle signals momentum interruption. Current structure resembles a flag / digestion phase rather than a trend breakdown. Monthly trend remains intact unless key support is violated. Key Levels • Resistance: 3,150–3,200 • Support: 3,000–2,950 Bias & Plan Neutral to cautious. No positional edge inside the range. Prefer trading post-confirmation on breakout or breakdown with volume expansion.

XAUUSD (H1) – Liam View: Strong Bullish Breakout→ short-term bearish shift, prefer selling the pullback | Quick reaction buy at 4330–4333 Quick summary Gold just printed a very aggressive dump with clear BOS (Break of Structure) — a short-term bearish shift is now in play. Price is currently in a technical rebound, so the cleaner plan is: Don’t chase shorts at the lows Wait for a pullback into 4458–4462 to sell from a premium supply zone If price sweeps back down, look for a quick reaction buy at 4330–4333 1) Technical view (based on your chart) The sell-off looks like a classic liquidity dump: large bearish candles, multiple supports broken → confirms bearish pressure intraday. After a dump, the market often retraces into supply (re-distribution) before the next leg. The 4330–4333 area is marked as a support that already “tested liquidity” — it can still provide a bounce, but it’s more of a scalp zone, not a full reversal yet. 2) Key Levels ✅ Sell zone: 4458 – 4462 (supply / pullback short) ✅ Buy zone: 4330 – 4333 (support / quick reaction) 3) Trading scenarios (Liam style: trade the level) Scenario A (priority): SELL the pullback ✅ Sell: 4458 – 4462 SL guide: 4470 (or above the most recent lower-TF swing high) TP1: 4400 – 4390 TP2: 4333 TP3: extension lower if structure continues to break down Logic: After a strong BOS, 4458–4462 is where you get a better short entry — avoid selling late. Scenario B: BUY reaction at support (scalp only) ✅ Buy: 4330 – 4333 SL guide: 4322–4325 TP: 4370 → 4400 (scale out) Logic: This zone can spark a technical bounce. Only buy with clear holding signals on lower timeframes (M5–M15) — no catching falling knives. 4) Confirmation rules (avoid noise) If price reaches 4458–4462 and fails to reclaim above → SELL bias stays strong. If 4330 breaks and closes below → stop looking for buys and focus on pullback sells. 5) Risk notes No mid-range entries — only act at 4330–4333 or 4458–4462. Risk per trade: max 1–2%. After a dump, spreads and wicks can expand — reduce size. Which side are you leaning today: selling 4458–4462, or waiting for 4330–4333 to buy the reaction bounce?
