BRIGADE – Falling Wedge at Demand Zone, Waiting for BOSSetup Type: Reversal + Breakout Play | Conviction: Medium-High (Needs Confirmation)
Chart Framework: Smart Money + Classic TA
BRIGADE is showing signs of a potential trend reversal, but we’re not jumping in yet. Here's what the chart tells us:
🟡 Falling Wedge Formation – A bullish reversal pattern that typically resolves to the upside.
🟢 Tapped into a Strong Order Block – Smart money territory where previous accumulation took place.
🧲 Liquidity Grab Below Prior Lows, but... Volume on Bounce is Weak – Sign of caution.
📢 Analyst Rating: STRONG BUY – Adds institutional bias to the bullish setup.
🔐 No Confirmed Break of Structure Yet – Enter only after a clean breakout above ₹1050.
📈 Trade Plan:
Wait for a strong BOS (Break of Structure) and price closing above ₹1050 with volume.
Target zone near ₹1440+ aligns with measured move of wedge and previous supply.
⚠️ This is a setup with potential, but it’s not “ready” yet. Don't front-run smart money — let price confirm before jumping in. Risk management is a must.
Technical Analysis
GOLD MARKET OUTLOOK Continuation of Bearish Structure Ahead FOMC🟡 GOLD MARKET OUTLOOK – Continuation of Bearish Structure Ahead of FOMC
The market continues to follow the bearish view we’ve held since the start of the week. As of today, price action is forming a descending triangle pattern toward the tip on M30–H1, within a compression zone between a declining trendline and a minor rising trendline.
🔍 Zooming out, the broader chart context shows a clear bear flag formation, and I remain biased toward a further drop into the 294x–293x zone in the coming sessions.
⚠️ Tonight’s US session brings the FOMC meeting, which may trigger high volatility and liquidity sweeps toward unfilled zones below current price. Be cautious!
📌 As long as price fails to break above 3075, there’s no confirmed shift in trend.
The 307x zone remains a key level for sellers — if unbroken, panic selling may intensify and buyers will remain sidelined.
🧠 Global equities are seeing a light rebound — led by late US session gains and some recovery in Asia & India today — but this seems more like a dead-cat bounce than true capital inflow.
→ Remember: CPI & PPI data are still due this week, so don’t rush to FOMO.

Support and Resistance part 2Support or resistance is determined by whether price is above or below the level identified by the trader. Generally, a trader can think of support being levels below price whereas resistance is formed above price. Levels of support and resistance can be formed in a few different ways.
AUD/USD Supply Zone Rejection Trade Setup🔵 Supply Zone → (Blue highlighted area) The price is expected to reverse from here.
🔹 Entry Point → 0.60610 📍 (Marked with a blue line) The trade is planned to start here.
🟠 Stop Loss → 0.60934 ❌ (Marked with an orange line) If the price goes above this, the trade will be exited to prevent further loss.
🔻 Target Point → 0.59400 🎯 (Marked at the bottom) Expected profit zone if the trade moves as planned.
📉 Trade Plan:
✅ Short position (Sell trade) expected to drop from the supply zone.
🚀 Risk-to-reward ratio looks good as the potential profit is higher than the risk.
⚠️ Risk Factor: If price breaks above the supply zone, the setup might fail.
Candle sticks pattern analysis part-2The bullish engulfing pattern and the ascending triangle pattern are considered among the most favorable candlestick patterns. As with other forms of technical analysis, it is important to look for bullish confirmation and understand that there are no guaranteed results.
Candle sticks pattern analysisA bullish candlestick is typically green or white and means the closing price is higher than the opening price, indicating upward momentum. Inversely, a bearish candlestick, generally red or black, signals that the closing price was lower than the opening price, reflecting downward pressure.
-If the upper wick on a red candle is short, then it indicates that the stock opened near the high of the day.
-On the other hand, if the upper wick on a green candle is short, then it indicates that the stock closed near the high of the day.
Doji Sandwich + Volume Spike = 10/10 Trades If You Spot It RightHello Traders!
Today, let’s talk about a highly underrated but powerful candlestick pattern — the Doji Sandwich . When this pattern appears with a volume spike , it can give you a high-probability breakout or breakdown setup . If you’ve ever missed strong moves because of late entries, this one’s for you.
Let’s decode how to spot it, trade it, and why it works so well.
What is the Doji Sandwich Pattern?
Structure: The pattern consists of three candles — a strong candle (bullish or bearish), followed by a Doji , and then another strong candle in the same direction as the first.
Indecision Trap: The Doji shows indecision, but the follow-up candle confirms that the previous trend will continue.
Reliability Boost: When supported by a volume spike on the third candle, it becomes a powerful confirmation of trend continuation.
How to Trade the Doji Sandwich Setup
Entry: Enter on the breakout of the third candle (closing above or below the Doji range).
Stop Loss: Place your stop loss just below the Doji (in bullish case) or above it (in bearish case).
Volume Confirmation: Make sure the third candle is accompanied by a visible volume spike — this confirms institutional activity.
Ideal Timeframe: 15min, 1hr, or Daily chart — depending on your trading style (intraday or swing).
When Does It Work Best?
Near support/resistance zones — as a continuation signal.
After a short pullback or consolidation .
In trending markets where volume confirms momentum.
Rahul’s Tip
Always combine price pattern + volume confirmation. A Doji Sandwich alone is good, but with a volume spike — it’s fire🔥. Don’t just watch it — prepare for it.
Conclusion
The Doji Sandwich pattern is one of those rare 10/10 setups when spotted correctly with volume. Simple, clean, and powerful — it can help you catch big moves early. Add it to your watchlist strategy, and you’ll never ignore this combo again!

GOLD UPDATE – FAKE NEWS SHOCKS MARKET INVESTORS GO FULL RISK-OFFGOLD UPDATE – FAKE NEWS SHOCKS MARKET, INVESTORS GO FULL RISK-OFF
Plan: Rejection + BIGSHORT scenario still in play
📉 U.S. Session Recap
Gold tanked aggressively during yesterday’s New York session after markets reacted to a “Fake News” headline suggesting a delay in the U.S. tariff policy. While the rumor was quickly denied by the White House, the psychological damage had already been done — triggering a sharp sell-off that sent Gold plunging back into the 295x zone, exactly as forecasted in AD’s earlier plan.
Meanwhile, U.S. equities stayed deep in the red, and the uncertainty continues to weigh on global markets.
🧠 Market Sentiment: “Cash Is King” Reignites
Investor sentiment is now fully fear-driven. Without a major calming headline or shift in macro tone, we’re likely to see more risk-off behavior and capital flight into cash and U.S. Treasuries.
📌 This shift may be strategic: if investors increasingly hoard USD and rotate into government bonds (currently more attractive than risk assets), it may signal a coordinated squeeze — possibly part of Trump’s broader economic maneuvering.
🔮 AD's Strategy
Until sentiment changes, we remain in SELL mode.
→ Look to short rallies until at least Wednesday, then reassess.

NIFTY 50 – Top-Down Analysis Amidst Tariff TurbulenceWith global markets shaken by Trump’s recent tariff rhetoric, it's time we zoom out and analyze what Nifty 50 is actually saying — from a multi-timeframe lens. Price tells a story, and here's how it's unfolding across the Monthly, Weekly, and Daily charts:
🟩 Monthly Chart (1M) – The Bigger Picture
The macro trend is nearing a critical MTF decision point.
🔁 This is the make-or-break zone for the larger structure.
🟥 Weekly Chart (1W) – Bearish Momentum Still in Play
Structure is currently bearish, with lower highs and lower lows.
🧠 Key Thought: Don’t assume trend change without structure breaking clearly.
🟧 Daily Chart (1D) – Battle Zone
Price action is noisy but insightful.
We have a potential bullish scenario unfolding — but it’s fragile
Only bullish structure is if price defends recent lows and breaks above resistance in a clean impulse-retrace-impulse fashion.
Despite external triggers like Trump’s tariff announcements, the technical structure across timeframes is telling us one thing:
⚠️ “No bias until structure confirms.”
Divergence based tradingDivergences are identified by using charting techniques. This involves tracking the highs and lows of a price chart and that of an indicator and identifying if they are making higher highs and higher lows, which is a classic bullish pattern, or lower highs and lower lows, which is a bearish pattern.

DXY Building Momentum — "Cash is King" Narrative Returns?📌 DXY is showing clear signs of recovery on the H4 timeframe — and that tells us something deeper: risk sentiment is shifting. Investors are pulling capital from risk-on assets and moving to cash. Yes, "Cash is King" might be making a comeback.
🔍 What’s Driving the Move?
As fear ripples through global markets:
📉 Equities are shaky.
🟡 Gold dropped sharply under profit-taking pressure.
🪙 Crypto lacks new capital.
Now, capital is rotating back into USD — not necessarily because of strong fundamentals, but due to defensive positioning.
🔺 On the geopolitical side, Trump’s aggressive tariff threats are shaking confidence. As import/export tension rises, the global appetite for USD-denominated assets (especially U.S. bonds) is also climbing.
🧭 Key Technical Levels (4H Chart)
Support Zones:
🟦 101.467 – historical structure low
🟦 102.113 – minor intraday demand
🟦 102.660 – neckline & retest zone (key area to hold)
Resistance Zones:
🟧 103.803 – consolidation top
🟥 104.506 – key resistance and EMA crossover zone
🟥 105.632 / 106.157 / 106.622 – higher-timeframe targets if momentum continues
🔮 Outlook by AD | Money Market Flow
The market is on the edge right now.
If U.S. equities fail to bounce and global risk sentiment continues to deteriorate, we could see: ✅ A strong USD breakout ✅ DXY bottoming and reclaiming the 104–106 zone ✅ Major asset correction across risk-on markets (Gold, Stocks, Crypto)
“When markets panic, smart money rotates to USD. It’s not bullishness — it’s protection.”
— AD | Money Market Flow
🔁 What to Watch:
Fed’s next steps (Will they ignore Trump’s tariffs and focus on growth?)
Global equity market reactions
Bond yields (demand for U.S. debt could rise again)
📌 Stay sharp and follow the money. DXY is giving early signals — don’t ignore the shift.
🧠 Manage risk. Protect capital. Let the market come to you.
GOLD WEEKLY OPEN – Sellers Hit Early, But Market Psychology🟡 GOLD WEEKLY OPEN – Sellers Hit Early, But Market Psychology Will Lead the Way
Gold kicked off the new week with a sharp drop during the Asian session, falling over 40 points from the previous highs (around 3018) down into the 297x zone. This reflects lingering sell pressure from the previous week’s volume.
However, gold quickly bounced back by nearly 40 points, confirming strong buy interest around 297x — a key level on the higher timeframes.
📌 This 297x zone is a critical support on H4/D1. A confirmed break below it could open the door for a deeper sell-off into 295x and beyond.
🔍 Technical Overview:
The broader trend on H4 and D1 still leans bullish.
However, psychological reactions from market participants are currently stronger than clean technical patterns.
On H1 and H2, price is now reacting to the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement.
A close below 3030 could trigger a renewed bearish move toward the 295x target.
🧠 Sentiment Will Drive Direction:
So far, only Asian and Australian sessions have participated.
We’ll need to monitor the London & US sessions closely to confirm directional conviction.
This is a sentiment-led market, not one purely ruled by structure → only trade from key zones with clean reaction signals.
🧭 KEY PRICE LEVELS:
🔺 Resistance:
3055 – 3076 – 3107
🔻 Support:
3024 – 3005 – 2970 – 2952
🎯 TRADE PLAN
🟢 BUY ZONE: 2980 – 2978

TP: 3072 – 3068 – 3064 – 3060 – 3056 – 3050
📅 Important this week:
Major data coming: CPI – PPI – FOMC Speeches → Expect potential spikes midweek. Stay alert, and I’ll update key reaction zones as the sessions unfold.
Stick to clear plans and always use TP/SL — capital protection comes first.
Good luck team,

GOLD CRASHES HARD — BUT THE BIG SHORT VIEW WAS ALREADY 🟡 GOLD CRASHES HARD — BUT THE BIG SHORT VIEW WAS ALREADY IN PLAY
Gold dropped — and dropped even harder than expected.
But for those following closely, this wasn’t a surprise.
From the start of April, we had been watching for signs of reversal after gold kept printing new ATHs. The candlestick behavior on the higher timeframes was already hinting at exhaustion — and today’s move validated that broader view.
🔍 Why I’ve Been Calling for a BIG SHORT — Not Just in Gold
This isn’t just about XAUUSD.
Zoom out and you’ll see the signs across the board:
US, EU, and Asian stock markets are in a steep decline
Crypto is stagnant, with no new capital inflow and little investor interest
And gold — after a historic run — is now facing intense profit-taking pressure, especially under growing geopolitical and global trade risks
In this environment, many investors are moving to cash and staying on the sidelines.
📉 DXY: A Potential Comeback?
The USD Index (DXY) has been heavily sold off in recent months.
But if you look closely — it's now testing a multi-year support zone that's held strong for nearly 3 years.
AD’s view?
If this level holds — and if recent tariff policies + international pressure from Trump continue — we could see a real USD recovery in the coming weeks.
Trump appears to be playing hardball — not just for his own benefit, but strategically for the U.S.
His aggressive trade moves are forcing nations to reconsider tariff terms. And in the short term, that puts Trump in a position of power — globally.
🤔 The Fed’s Dilemma
Even as Trump escalates trade pressure, the Fed remains cautious.
They’ve held back from rate cuts — waiting for clearer outcomes from these global negotiations.
All eyes are now on Trump’s next moves — and how other major economies will respond.
🔮 Strategy Moving Forward
Many investors are still in risk-off mode, hoarding cash and waiting for further declines.
AD still expects further downside in gold next week, alongside a potential short-term bounce in DXY.
→ After that, once the trade talk dust settles, we could very well see Gold resume its climb, while USD retests major supports on the D1 timeframe.
📌 I’ll be back with a full weekly outlook tomorrow, but for now — absorb this Gold/USD landscape and build your strategy for the new week.
Stay sharp & protect your capital.

How Algo Bots Target Retail SL – Learn to Beat Them!Hello Traders!
Have you ever seen your stop-loss get hit by just a few points and then the market moves in the direction you expected? That’s not a coincidence — it’s often the work of Algo Bots and big players trying to trap retail traders . These bots are designed to trick traders by moving prices to hit SLs before starting the real move.
Let’s understand how these bots work — and how you can avoid getting trapped.
How Algos Hunt Retail Stop-Losses
They Target Common SL Zones:
Algo bots look for areas where many traders place their stop-loss — like just below support or above resistance.
They Trick with Fake Breakouts:
You may see a fast move above or below a level — but it’s just to hit SLs and then reverse. This is called a stop hunt .
They React Fast:
Bots can place thousands of trades in a second. They use their speed to catch traders off guard.
How to Beat the Bots – Pro Tips
Avoid Obvious SL Levels:
Don’t keep SL right at support or resistance. Place it a little beyond where bots won’t expect it.
Use Structure-Based SLs:
Look at price structure and place SLs based on key swing highs/lows — not just round numbers.
Wait for Confirmation:
Don’t enter as soon as a level breaks. Wait for retest or a strong candle signal.
Mark Smart Zones:
Learn to spot liquidity areas and imbalance zones — that’s where big players usually trade after bots do their job.
Rahul’s Tip
The market isn’t cheating you — it’s just smarter. Learn how it works and you’ll trade with more confidence and better results.
Conclusion
Algo bots are fast and smart — but not unbeatable. If you place SLs wisely, trade with structure, and wait for confirmation, you’ll stop being trapped and start trading like the smart money.

USD/JPY BREAKS DOWN USD/JPY BREAKS DOWN – SAFE HAVEN YEN STRENGTHENS AS GLOBAL MARKETS REACT
After the latest U.S. tariff announcement, global financial markets went into risk-off mode, with U.S. Treasury yields dropping sharply. As investor fear rises, money quickly rotates into safe-haven assets — and the Japanese Yen is taking the spotlight.
🔻 USD/JPY just hit its lowest level in over 3 weeks, reflecting both global sentiment shifts and domestic tailwinds for the Yen.
🔍 What's Fueling Yen Strength?
Risk-off sentiment:
Global equities declined after the U.S. tariff update. Investors are fleeing risky assets, favoring traditional safe havens like the Yen.
Yield dynamics:
U.S. bond yields fell, dragging the dollar down.
If the Fed begins cutting rates to counteract trade impacts, it would further narrow the U.S.–Japan yield gap, supporting JPY.
BoJ policy outlook turning hawkish:
With inflation on the rise, expectations are growing that the Bank of Japan (BoJ) may continue rate hikes, reinforcing the Yen’s appeal.
Japan’s political stance:
Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba announced intentions to revisit tariff policy negotiations with the U.S., potentially shaping Japan’s economic roadmap and investor confidence.
📈 Market Outlook:
If trade tensions persist and the Fed moves toward rate cuts, we could see further downside on USD/JPY, with JPY demand accelerating in both fundamental and technical terms.
This setup offers key opportunities for traders watching:
Safe-haven flow dynamics
Central bank divergence (Fed vs BoJ)
Potential macro breakout zones on JPY crosses
