Gold Demand Zone Holding – Upside Potential Toward 3710!Gold is currently testing a demand zone around 3640–3650 , which aligns well with moving average support. As long as this zone holds, price action favors a potential bounce toward the falling trendline and eventually the key resistance area near 3710 . Short-term buyers may look for confirmation inside the demand zone before positioning, while a breakdown below 3614 would invalidate this setup.

Fresh Highs, Hot Headlines , Is a Pullback Next?Gold broke out of its recent range yesterday and is now trading at new all-time highs, showing strong follow-through momentum. On the weekly pivot chart, price is currently testing Weekly R1, with the next key level being the psychological 3700 resistance. While the technical structure remains bullish, today’s headlines from major gold newsletter are a reminder that sentiment is running extremely hot. When you start seeing mainstream media comparing gold rally to 1979 and celebrating retail traders wins, it often signals that we’re entering a frothy phase. With the FOMC decision approaching, the risk of a short-term shakeout or healthy correction is definitely on the table. A close back below the breakout zone could trigger profit-taking, while holding above R1 would keep the path open for 3700 and beyond. For now, 3625–3650 remains the key support area, and as long as price holds above this zone, the trend stays firmly bullish but we should stay cautious and avoid chasing too aggressively at these levels until we get clarity from the Fed. Personally I am expecting some cool down after FOMC .

Gold Breaking Limits – Trend Speaks for ItselfGold Breaking Limits – Trend Speaks for Itself Gold Market Outlook Gold continues to demonstrate a well-structured bullish cycle, characterized by steady momentum and clean trend development. The market has transitioned from a prolonged consolidation phase into a sustained directional move, where each breakout is validated by controlled retracements. This reflects strong participation and confidence from larger players. The sequence of market shifts and break-of-structure signals highlight how short-term pullbacks are consistently absorbed, turning into fuel for further expansion. Price action is orderly, with no signs of erratic volatility, showing that buyers remain in control and liquidity is being managed efficiently. Overall, gold is moving in line with the broader macro sentiment. The rhythm of accumulation, expansion, and continuation suggests that the current cycle has not yet exhausted its potential. While interim pauses are expected, the structural integrity of the trend continues to favor upside development over the medium term.

Gold's U-Turn: A Dive into Fundamentals & Trading StrategyHello, fellow traders! The gold market's moves last night were absolutely wild, not at all what one would expect. After hitting a new all-time high of $3,707.40/oz, gold surprisingly took a U-turn and dropped to $3,681.39/oz. And this happened right after the Fed cut rates by 0.25% as predicted! So, what exactly went down? Fundamental Analysis: The Fed's Move and Powell's "Cool" Comments Rate Cut as Expected: The Fed delivered the 0.25% rate cut, its first this year after a pause since late 2024. This action, along with the forecast for two more cuts, met market expectations and initially sent gold soaring. USD and Bond Yields Drop: Lower interest rates tend to weaken the USD and pull down bond yields, making non-yielding assets like gold more attractive. This was the initial push for gold's new peak. Powell's "Hawkish" Spin: Everything changed when Fed Chair Jerome Powell stepped up. He gave some surprisingly "hawkish" statements, suggesting the Fed isn't in a hurry to cut rates and that this move was just "risk management." The Aftermath: This statement threw cold water on market expectations for a faster, more aggressive rate-cutting path. Powell was quite clever; he met market expectations and diffused political pressure (especially from the Trump administration), all while keeping investors on their toes. As a result, bond yields and the USD bounced back, putting strong selling pressure on gold. Outlook: This shock might just be temporary. Fundamentally, the Fed starting a loosening cycle is a big long-term positive for gold. While gold might face some headwinds in the short term, the underlying bullish trend is still very much intact. Technical Analysis: Volatility and Key Levels Gold had some unpredictable swings after the news. After dropping to the $363x zone, it bounced back super fast. This shows that there's still solid buying power at these key support levels. Key Support: $3624, $3612, $3600, $3584, $3569 Resistance: $3667, $3675, $3686, $3700 Today's Key Level: The $364x range. If gold holds above this level by the end of the European session, we should look for long positions for the US session. Trading Setups (Remember to Manage Risk Strictly): Buy Scalp Zone: $3639 - $3637 SL: $3633 TP: $3642 - $3647 - $3652 - $3657 - $3667 Buy Zone Zone: $3606 - $3604 SL: $3596 TP: $3614 - $3624 - $3634 - $3644 - $3664 Sell Scalp Zone: $3674 - $3676 SL: $3680 TP: $3671 - $3665 - $3660 - $3655 - $3645 Sell Zone Zone: $3686 - $3688 SL: $3696 TP: $3678 - $3668 - $3658 - $3648 - $3628 Note: The market is highly volatile. Be careful with every trade. Will gold continue its rally or see a deeper correction?

Gold Trading Strategy | September 18-19🎉 Congratulations to our members who followed our trading strategy - today's trades yielded a profit of over 300++ pips! ✅ Based on the 4-hour chart, gold formed a phase top at 3707 and has since pulled back in a consolidation. The moving averages MA5 and MA10 have crossed downward, while MA20 near 3670 is acting as resistance. The short- to medium-term trend shows weakening bullish momentum with bears gradually taking control. The Bollinger Bands’ midline is around 3670, and the price has broken below it, now moving near the lower band, indicating weakness. If it cannot quickly reclaim the midline, the trend is likely to remain bearish. Currently, gold is trading in the 3640–3650 range. If this zone breaks, the price may further test the 3625–3630 support. A break below 3625–3630 would open more downside potential, with the next target around 3600. 🔴 Resistance levels: 3660–3670 🟢 Support levels: 3640–3630 ✅ Trading Strategy Reference: 🔰 If the price rebounds to 3660–3670 and faces resistance, consider light short positions with targets at 3630–3625. 🔰 If the price drops to around 3625 and stabilizes, short-term long positions can be considered, targeting 3655–3660. 🔥Trading Reminder: Trading strategies are time-sensitive, and market conditions can change rapidly. Please adjust your trading plan based on real-time market conditions. If you have any questions , feel free to contact me🤝

XAUUSD H1 – Pennant + Head & ShouldersXAUUSD H1 – Pennant + Head & Shoulders: Two Key Levels 3657 / 3627 Hello Traders, Gold opened the week with a bounce of over 20 points from the rising trendline and is now consolidating within a Pennant, which aligns with a small Head & Shoulders structure on the H1 chart. At the moment, the market is waiting for a breakout and confirmation to establish a clearer direction. Pattern: A narrowing Pennant Flag alongside an H&S (left shoulder – head – right shoulder). Key Zones to Watch 3655–3660: Crucial reaction zone (trendline + Pennant top). 3627: Critical support — a break below would invalidate the short-term bullish structure. Fibonacci Levels: 1.618 in the mid-range, 2.618 lower — possible targets for a deeper correction. MACD (12,26,9): Histogram has turned negative → short-term bearish momentum has the edge, though clear confirmation is still pending. Trading Scenarios Bullish Setup Entry: Retest around 3654–3657 Targets: 3663 – 3670 – 3680 → 3695 Stop: Below 3648 Bearish Setup Entry: Sell directly on breakdown, or wait for a retest near 3671–3674 Targets: 3663 – 3650 – 3633 – 3615 → 3595 → 3568 → 3540 Stop: Above 3679 the market is currently pricing in near certainty of a 0.25% Fed rate cut on 17th September, while the probability of a 0.50% cut still remains on the table. If you find this analysis helpful, feel free to share your thoughts in the comments. I’ll update the outlook as soon as the price structure changes — follow me to get the latest setups first.

Gold Intraday Analysis: Range Play Until BreakoutGold is currently trading in a range-bound structure after pulling back from the 3700 level. The weekly pivot around 3632 is acting as strong support, while the 3700 zone serves as resistance, forming the upper boundary of the range. Price is showing signs of consolidation between these levels, suggesting a sideways market. For any breakout confirmation, we need to see a clear H1 or H4 candle close above 3700 or below 3632, along with volume or strong price rejection/follow-through. Until then, the price action favors range trading within these key levels.

GOLD Bullish continuation (new highs, momentum sustain) : Probability: around 60–65% The breakout has strong support from macro conditions. Real yields look like they are peaking, inflation expectations remain sticky, and the Fed is leaning toward easing. On top of that, the US dollar is softening and central banks are continuing to add gold to reserves. These combined factors increase the odds that the breakout holds and the trend continues higher. Sideways consolidation or retest of breakout : Probability: about 25–30% A pullback or cnsolidation wouldn’t be surprising, especially if the Fed sounds less dovish or if inflation data cools faster than expected. In that case, gold could spend some time chopping between support and resistance before deciding its next big move. Major correction or deep mean reversion : A deep selloff looks like the least likely path right now. Real yields aren’t rising sharply, inflation isn’t collapsing, and the dollar is still under pressure. But nothing is guaranteed. A surprise hawkish turn from the Fed or a sudden global disinflation shock could knock gold back toward old structural levels.but this remains the least likely scenario in the near to medium term.

Gold oscillation adjustment pattern: 3320-3360Gold oscillation adjustment pattern: 3320-3360 Next, the focus of the gold market will mainly focus on the Fed's upcoming interest rate resolution, and its interest rate cut and guidance on future policies will become key catalysts for the gold price trend in the short term. Fundamental analysis: 1: The market generally expects the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates by 25 basis points at its meeting on September 17-18 (the probability is as high as more than 90%). The current market pricing reflects the expectation of a cumulative interest rate cut of 70 basis points this year (that is, it may also include interest rate cuts in October and December). 2: Lax labor market: The number of initial unemployment claims in the United States rose sharply last week, recording its worst performance in the past four years, strengthening the need for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates. 3: Inflation stickiness: In August, the US CPI increased by 2.9% year-on-year and 0.4% month-on-month (0.3% exceeded expectations). This shows that inflationary pressure still exists, but the data is basically in line with expectations, and the market is more concerned about the downside risks of the employment market. 4: Geopolitical risks: The continued tension in the Middle East and the uncertainty in many places around the world continue to provide safe-haven support for gold. 5: Trend of central bank gold purchases: Many central banks around the world (such as the People's Bank of China and the Central Bank of Poland) continue to increase their holdings of gold reserves and relax import and export rules, which provides support for gold prices in the long-term structural sense. 6: "Super Economic Week": A number of major economic events and data were released this week, including US retail sales data in August ("terror data"), housing start data, and interest rate decisions from Canada, the United Kingdom and the Bank of Japan, which may exacerbate market volatility. Technical analysis: Macro support: US$3587-3600 Macro resistance: $3675, after breaking through, it looks at $3700 and $3758 4-hour level Short-term support: US$3620-3630 Short-term resistance: $3660-3675 As shown in the figure: High sideways oscillation consolidation range: (3620-3660) Short-term core range: US$3637-3650 The direction is waiting to break. Operational strategies and suggestions Aggressive long positions: Consider focusing on supporting the region to stabilize at US$3630-3620 and moving forward with a light position and a target of US$3658-3675, with a stop loss below 3610. Stable long positions: If the gold price pulls back to the US$3587-3600 area and gets support, you can consider layout long positions, with the same target as above, and the stop loss is set below 3570. Aggressive short positions: After the current resistance is under pressure in the US$3660-3674 area, try short positions with a light position, the target is US$3630-3620, and the stop loss is set above 3675. Safe short positions: If the gold price rebounds to near the integer mark of $3,700, you can consider trying shorts, and the target is to look at a pullback of $100-150, and the stop loss is set above 3,710.

Gold Market Analysis: September 20, 2025Gold (XAU/USD) continues its remarkable bullish run in 2025, driven by persistent geopolitical tensions, central bank buying, a weakening US dollar, and expectations of further Federal Reserve rate cuts. As of today, the spot price stands at approximately $3,685 per ounce, marking a 1.06% increase from the previous day and a staggering 40.47% year-over-year gain. This follows a 26% rise in the first half of the year and nearly 41% year-to-date, with the metal recently touching an all-time high near $3,707 earlier this month. The market remains in a structural uptrend, though short-term volatility—exacerbated by the recent FOMC meeting—has led to some profit-taking and consolidation. Technical Analysis Gold's chart on the daily and H1 timeframes shows a bullish bias, with the price trading above key moving averages (50-day MA at $3,520 and 200-day MA at $3,200). The recent pullback from $3,707 appears corrective, testing demand zones around $3,638-$3,644 where buyers stepped in aggressively.Key Support Levels:Immediate: $3,644–$3,638 (recent demand zone; strong buying interest here). Long term Support and resistance Support : $3,525–$3,580 Key Resistance Levels: $3,900 - $4,000 Trend Bullish ~~ Disclaimer ~~ This analysis is based on recent technical data and market sentiment from web sources.

XAUUSD / Gold FOMC Interest Rate Update – 18.09.25Fundamental Reason for Bullish: The Federal Reserve cut rates from 4.25% → 4.00%. This supports gold’s bullish momentum since lower rates reduce the opportunity cost of holding gold. Technical Structure: Potential Reversal Zone: Highlighted in yellow. Price is currently testing this area around 3645–3655. A bounce from this zone aligns with the 3-month uptrend line (black trendline). If price respects this support, bullish continuation is expected. Bullish Projection Path: First, a rebound from the reversal zone. Then, a push towards 3700–3720 with a possible retest. Final Target Price Zone: ~3750–3780. Risk Area (Stop Loss Zone): If price breaks below the reversal zone and trendline (~3640–3635), bullish outlook weakens and downside risk opens. 🎯 Summary Bias: Bullish (Fundamental + Technical confluence). Reason: Rate cut + uptrend line support. Targets: 3700 → 3750 → 3780. Invalidation: Break below 3640.

XAUUSD – The Decisive Zone and Trading ScenariosTechnical Analysis Gold prices on the H4 chart are in a recovery phase after retesting the support at 3,661–3,662. The latest candle has rebounded strongly to the 3,684 zone, yet the structure still indicates a clear tug-of-war. The upward trendline was breached in the previous decline, and currently, the price is retracing to test this area again. This is a crucial point to determine whether the short-term uptrend will continue. The Fair Value Gap (FVG) formed around the 3,613–3,626 zone, along with the Fibonacci extension, becomes a point of interest for deeper pullbacks. The Volume Profile indicates the main Point of Control (POC) lies lower, around 3,551, a potential target for gold to revisit if selling pressure increases. The RSI (14) is at ~59, leaning towards the buyers but hasn't crossed into the overbought territory → the current momentum is more of a recovery rather than a sustainable uptrend. Trading Scenarios Scenario 1 – Buy following the short-term trend: Entry: wait for a retest at 3,673–3,662 SL: below 3,655 TP1: 3,690–3,700 TP2: 3,708–3,715 (2.0–2.618 Fib extension) Scenario 2 – Short sell after confirmed failure: If the price fails to hold above 3,661 and there is a reversal signal on H4, consider selling. Entry: 3,661–3,650 (after confirmation candle) SL: above 3,673 TP1: 3,626–3,613 (FVG + support) TP2: 3,579 TP3: 3,551 (POC Volume Profile) Key Price Levels to Watch 3,708–3,715: extended resistance zone, Fibonacci confluence, important target for buyers. 3,661–3,662: short-term support, the boundary to determine the next trend. 3,613–3,626: FVG + intermediate support, a zone prone to reactions. 3,551: volume POC, a deeper target if the market breaks all support. I will apply the long-term trading scenario in the new week, give me a follow for motivation to write more!

Gold Stuck in 3620–3655 Range – All Eyes on Fed DecisionGold is still consolidating between 3620–3625 support and 3650–3655 resistance, respecting this week’s pivot level around 3632. As highlighted in the weekly outlook, this week’s trading action is likely to remain muted until the FOMC rate decision and press conference on Wednesday. Until then, we can expect price to stay range-bound, with quick scalps working better than trend trades. Once the Fed outcome is out, we should see a clearer short-term direction. A higher-timeframe close above 3655 could open the door for a move toward 3675+ and potentially new highs. On the flip side, a break below 3620 could trigger a deeper pullback, but so far there’s no sign of reversal pressure bulls remain firmly in control on higher timeframes.

Trading Analysis for Gold Spot / U.S. Dollar (15-Minute Chart)Sorry I am late in giving the signal but I will say that manipulation in XAU/USD is at extreme level. Keep portfolio at least $1000. Take buy position in XAU/USD as much as possible. Not more than $3630.00. Target 1 3353.00 Target 2 3358.00 Target 3 3365.00 Target 4 3372.00 SL 3630.00 Based on the provided 15-minute chart for Gold Spot / U.S. Dollar (XAU/USD), published by NaviPips on TradingView.com on June 30, 2025, at 17:53 UTC, here’s a suggested trading setup for a buy position: Current Price and Trend: The current price is 3,241.875, with a slight increase of +0.250 (+0.01%). The chart shows a recent downtrend that appears to be stabilizing near the current level, suggesting a potential reversal point. Buy Entry: Enter a buy position at 3,312.875 (current price), as it aligns with a support zone where the price has found a base, indicated by the horizontal dashed line and recent consolidation. Stop Loss: Place a stop loss at 3,295.250, below the recent low, to protect against further downside. This level is approximately 10.625 points below the entry, defining the risk. Take Profit Levels: Take Profit 1: 3,317.875, a conservative target about 20.000 points above the entry, aligning with a minor resistance zone. Take Profit 2: 3,324.750, a mid-range target approximately 31.875 points above the entry. Take Profit 3: 3,332.500, a deeper target about 45.625 points above the entry, indicating a potential trend reversal. Price Action: The chart indicates a downtrend with a possible bottoming pattern near the current level. The support zone and upward candlestick suggest a buy opportunity if the price holds. Risk-Reward Ratio: The distance to the stop loss (10.625 points) compared to the take profit levels (20.000 to 45.625 points) offers a favorable risk-reward ratio, ranging from approximately 1:1.9 to 1:4.3. Conclusion Enter a buy at 3,241.875, with a stop loss at 3,295.250 and take profit levels at 3,317.875, 3,324.750, and 3,332.500. Monitor the price action for confirmation of an upward move, and be cautious of a potential continued downtrend if the price breaks below the stop loss level. (Note: I assume "take profot" was a typo for "take profit" and have corrected it accordingly.)

Gold Ahead of FOMC: Holding the Bullish Structure, Eyeing 3,700Hello everyone, gold is heading into a very sensitive week with the upcoming FOMC decision on rates and policy guidance. On the H1 chart, price just broke out to 3.68xx with a strong candle and improved volume, now consolidating just below 3,690–3,700 – a psychological barrier and session high. The broader trend remains upward as gold trades above a rising Ichimoku cloud, while clear support steps form below: 3,662–3,665 as the nearest floor, 3,648–3,642 as a deeper defense, and the 3,635–3,625 cloud zone as intraday trend protection. As long as gold holds above 3.66x, I favour a high-probability accumulation setup to retest 3,690–3,700; if H1/H4 candles close above 3,700, the next target could extend to 3,715–3,730. On the news side, the midweek FOMC is the key trigger. A dovish Powell and dot-plot could soften USD and yields, giving gold a chance to break 3,700. A hawkish tone, however, may spark profit-taking and pull gold back to 3,662–3,665 or even 3,648–3,642 to test demand. Labour data, manufacturing reports, and the BoE decision will also shape sentiment. With US figures lately underwhelming, markets lean toward a softer Fed stance, which underpins gold. I tilt bullish, watching reactions around 3,665 and 3,645 as FOMC headlines hit. Do you think the Fed will sound dovish or hawkish this week? Drop your thoughts!

Liquidity is now seen both above the premium resistance at 3,700 and below the Fair Value Gap demand around 3,669–3,667. With U.S. Retail Sales data due at 19:30 IST today, intraday volatility is expected, but overall positioning is still cautious ahead of the Federal Reserve’s interest rate decision later this week. Traders can look for liquidity sweeps towards premium levels before retracements into demand zones. ________________________________________ 📌 Key Structure & Liquidity Zones (1H): • 🔴 SELL ZONE 3,700 – 3,698 (SL 3,707): Premium resistance likely to trigger rejection towards 3,690 → 3,680 → 3,670. • 🟢 FVG BUY ZONE 3,669 – 3,667 (SL 3,660): Fair Value Gap demand zone for retracements, targeting 3,680 → 3,690 → 3,700+. • 🟢 BUY SUPPORT 3,641 – 3,639 (SL 3,632): Deep discount support, targeting 3,655 → 3,670 → 3,685+. ________________________________________ 📊 Trading Ideas (Scenario-Based): 🔺 Buy Setup – FVG Reclaim (3,669–3,667) • Entry: 3,669 – 3,667 • Stop Loss: 3,660 • Targets:  TP1: 3,680  TP2: 3,690  TP3: 3,700+ 👉 Look for a liquidity sweep into the FVG zone before New York session begins. 🔺 Buy Setup – Discount Sweep (3,641–3,639) • Entry: 3,641 – 3,639 • Stop Loss: 3,632 • Targets:  TP1: 3,655  TP2: 3,670  TP3: 3,685+ 👉 A good risk-to-reward opportunity if price sweeps stops below structure before Retail Sales release. 🔻 Sell Setup – Premium Liquidity Run (3,700–3,698) • Entry: 3,700 – 3,698 • Stop Loss: 3,707 • Targets:  TP1: 3,690  TP2: 3,680  TP3: 3,670 👉 Expect engineered stop-runs into premium supply before fading lower. ________________________________________ 🔑 Strategy Note While Retail Sales data may bring short-term price swings, market attention is focused on the Fed. Smart Money is likely to trap both sides of liquidity: fading premium near 3,700–3,698 while accumulating buys at 3,669–3,667 and 3,641–3,639. Trade with smaller positions and confirm with H1 closes before entries.
