Gold Trading Plan: After Record High Pullback📊 Market Context Gold is struggling to recover after the pullback from its all-time high near 3791 USD/oz. During the Asian session on Thursday, price action turned cautious as traders await US mid-tier data and further comments from Federal Reserve officials. While the long-term outlook remains bullish, in the short-term, XAU/USD faces potential liquidity sweeps and sharp volatility around key zones. 🔎 Technical Analysis (H1/H4) ATH zone 3791 triggered heavy selling pressure. Price is currently moving below the 3755–3757 downtrend reaction zone, signaling short-term weakness. Strong demand/liquidity sits at 3712 and deeper at 3688–3686 (CP + OBS Buy Zone). Sell-side liquidity lies at 3775–3777, likely to trigger reactions on retests. A broader Liquidity Sell Zone is visible at 3824–3830, only valid if 3777 breaks cleanly. 🔑 Key Technical Levels Resistance / Sell Zones: 3775–3777 - 3791 - 3824–3830 Support / Buy Zones: 3712 - 3688–3686 📈 Trading Scenarios & Plan ✅ BUY ZONE (priority): 3688–3686 SL: 3680 TP: 3696 - 3700 - 3705 - 3710 - 3720 - 3730 - … ✅ SELL ZONE (scalp): 3775–3777 SL: 3782 TP: 3770 - 3765 - 3760 - 3750 - 3740 - 3730 - … ⚠️ Risk Notes Be careful with false breakouts at 3775–3777 before reversals. Avoid chasing price in the middle of the range; wait for price action confirmations at zones. US data and Fed speeches can bring volatility – adjust position sizes accordingly. ✅ Summary Gold is consolidating after its sharp rally to 3791 ATH, waiting for new catalysts from the US and Fed. Main plan: buy dips at 3688–3686 aiming for 3720–3730, while a short-term sell opportunity at 3775–3777 remains valid if rejection signals appear. If bulls clear 3777, the upside opens towards 3824–3830 liquidity. 📢 Follow MMFLOW TRADING for real-time liquidity setups and BIGWIN strategies!

LiamTrading – XAUUSD IN-DEPTH ANALYSIS OF CURRENT TRENDLiamTrading – XAUUSD Scenario Today: Opportunities at Key Price Levels Gold continues its strong upward momentum, currently fluctuating around the 376x–377x range after a series of breakthroughs. The technical structure on the H1 chart shows the market is forming clear resistance and support zones, suitable for short-term trading plans. Technical Analysis RSI is cooling off from high levels, indicating the possibility of a short-term correction. The upper price range around 3818–3821 is a strong confluence of resistance, coinciding with wave peaks and Fibonacci extensions, making it prone to selling reactions. Conversely, the support zones at 373x and 370x exhibit dense liquidity, serving as potential buying points when prices adjust. The short-term Dow structure still leans towards an uptrend, but attention is needed for the sell confirmation zone if gold fails at the peak. Reference Trading Plan Sell Zone: 3818 – 3821, SL 3828, TP 3805 – 3785 – 3760 – 3732 – 3650 Buy Scalping: 3728 – 3731, SL 3723, TP 3750 – 3777 – 3790 Buy Zone: 3706 – 3709, SL 3700, TP 3725 – 3738 – 3750 – 3777 – 3790 In summary, the main trend still leans towards an increase, but with gold approaching strong resistance zones, the likelihood of a correction is very high. Traders need to patiently wait for reactions at the marked zones for optimal entries, while managing risk tightly. This is my personal view on XAUUSD. If you're interested in gold scenarios, follow me for the fastest updates.

Elliott Wave Analysis XAUUSD – September 25, 2025 ________________________________________ 🔹 Momentum • D1: Momentum on the daily chart has turned bearish, indicating that the main downtrend may continue. • H4: Momentum on H4 is about to turn bullish, suggesting a possible upward move today. However, if this bullish reversal fails to break the previous high, the downtrend will remain intact. • H1: Momentum on H1 is declining and about to enter the oversold zone. This downward move may need around 2 more H1 candles before entering oversold territory and reversing. ________________________________________ 🔹 Wave Structure • D1: o The first target of wave 5 (yellow) was reached at 3789. o Price is currently reacting at this level. With D1 momentum turning bearish, there is a strong possibility that wave 5 (yellow) has already completed, meaning price could move towards 3632 and potentially break below it. • H4: An ABC corrective structure (blue) has formed, opening three scenarios: 1. The correction is complete → price rallies strongly, breaking the previous high to continue the uptrend. 2. Price rallies but with overlap, forming a Flat 3-3-5 pattern → price may rise toward the previous high at 3793. 3. Price remains in a zigzag structure → another decline may occur to complete wave C. 👉 Given the bearish momentum on D1, I lean more towards scenario 2 and 3. 👉 Note: In scenarios (1) and (2), price must hold above 3729, then break 3752, which could lead to a minimum rally towards 3777. • H1: Under scenario 3 (further decline to complete wave C): o Price may break below 3718. o Wave 5 (black) targets:  3713 (first target).  3698 (second target). ________________________________________ 🔹 Trade Plan • Buy Zone 1: 3729 – 3726 o SL: 3717 o TP: 3751 • Buy Zone 2: 3714 – 3711 o SL: 3703 o TP: 3751 ________________________________________ ⚠️ Important Note The market is likely in a corrective wave at a higher structure. • Characteristic: Price often shows overlapping moves. • Therefore: Manage trades carefully, avoid over-risking, as reversals can happen at any time – this is typical of corrective waves.

Gold Soars: Will a Weak USD Open the Door for New Highs?Hello traders, it’s clear that gold is rising sharply, supported by the weakening of the USD. Can gold continue to conquer new highs? On the chart, the price is moving within a clear upward channel. The key support level at 3,750,000 has been tested multiple times, and if the price holds above this level, gold could continue rising towards 3,827,000. The areas near recent highs also show an increase in trading volume, reinforcing the bullish trend. Forecasts indicate that the U.S. labor market is slowing down, with 233K jobs created, slightly higher than the previous 231K. This weakens the USD, creating an opportunity for gold to continue its rise, as gold typically benefits from a weaker USD. With strong technicals and a weakening USD, XAU/USD could continue its upward momentum. Get ready for some exciting opportunities!

Gold 1H – Should We Hold or Fade Liquidity at 3800?On the 1-hour timeframe, gold is trading near 3,776 within a corrective channel. Premium liquidity remains clustered above 3,800–3,798, while discount demand is positioned at 3,725–3,727. Recent BOS (Break of Structure) signals confirm bullish intent, but engineered sweeps into premium zones are still likely before price retraces toward discount levels. Today’s headlines on the Federal Reserve’s cautious approach and ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East are reinforcing safe-haven demand. However, intraday volatility may continue to produce liquidity grabs before clear direction is established. ________________________________________ 📌 Key Structure & Liquidity Zones (1H) • 🔴 SELL GOLD LIQUIDITY 3,800–3,798 (SL 3,807): Premium resistance where liquidity sweeps may cause rejections towards 3,770 → 3,760 → 3,755. • 🟢 BUY ZONE 3,725–3,727 (SL 3,720): Discount demand in line with BOS, with upside targets at 3,740 → 3,760 → 3,775. ________________________________________ 📊 Trading Ideas (Scenario-Based) 🔻 Sell Setup – Liquidity Run (3,800–3,798) • Entry: 3,800–3,798 • Stop Loss: 3,807 • Take Profits: o TP1: 3,770 o TP2: 3,760 o TP3: 3,755 🔺 Buy Setup – Discount Demand (3,725–3,727) • Entry: 3,725–3,727 • Stop Loss: 3,720 • Take Profits: o TP1: 3,740 o TP2: 3,760 o TP3: 3,775+ ________________________________________ 🔑 Strategy Note With the Fed’s cautious stance and geopolitical risks supporting gold, the broader bias remains buy-the-dip. At the same time, fading engineered sweeps into premium liquidity zones can offer tactical short-term opportunities. Expect volatility around 3,800 liquidity runs before retracements into well-defined discount zones.

Elliott Wave Analysis XAUUSD – September 24, 2025📊 ________________________________________ 🔹 Momentum D1 • Daily momentum is currently rising. • So far, we have counted 4 bullish candles, which is the minimum requirement to complete a momentum cycle. • There may be 1–2 more daily candles before momentum enters the overbought zone and reverses. H4 • H4 momentum is in the oversold zone and about to reverse. • The upcoming H4 bullish swing is critical: o If it breaks the previous high → the uptrend continues, and we can expect another 1–2 daily bullish candles before reversal. o If it fails to break the high → we must prepare for a reversal scenario. H1 • H1 momentum is also heading into the oversold zone. • This creates a confluence between H4 and H1, signaling a possible bullish move ahead. ________________________________________ 🔹 Wave Structure D1 • The yellow wave ⑤ has reached its first target at 3789. • This is a strong resistance zone because: o It aligns with the 0.382 Fibo retracement of waves ①–③ yellow. o Wave ⑤ equals the length of wave ① yellow. • If D1 momentum enters the overbought zone and price fails to break 3789, this may mark the top of wave ⑤ yellow, potentially triggering a sharp and prolonged decline. H4 • Price has already seen a 5-candle decline on H4, with momentum in the oversold zone → this correction is near completion. • Two possibilities: 1. It is wave ④ of wave ⑤ yellow. 2. It is the start of wave ① of a new bearish structure. • If the next bullish move fails to break the previous high, the bearish wave ① scenario is confirmed, leading to a wave ③ decline with strong and steep characteristics. H1 • A deeper and longer correction than previous ones has appeared, which is unusual, especially since price already reached the first target of wave ⑤ yellow. • However, we should not rush to catch the top, as this unusual behavior is only visible on H1, while H4 and D1 still look normal. • If this is wave ④, or wave ① of a bearish structure, or even just wave A → the next move should still bring a bullish swing confluence, providing an opportunity to look for Buy entries. ________________________________________ 🔹 Key Support Zones • 3747 – 3737 • 3729 ________________________________________ 🔹 Trading Plan Scenario 1: • Buy Zone: 3747 – 3744 • SL: 3735 • TP: 3774 Scenario 2: • Buy Zone: 3730 – 3727 • SL: 3720 • TP: 3767

Gold Prices Continue to Rise Amid Rate Cuts and Geopolitical RisGold prices today are being strongly supported by growing expectations that the Federal Reserve (FED) will continue to cut interest rates and the increasing demand for safe-haven assets amid rising geopolitical instability. Last week, the FED made its first rate cut of 0.25% since December, causing gold prices to surge. While some investors took profits, most experts believe the uptrend is not over yet. This week, investor focus will be on the U.S. Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) data for August, the FED's preferred inflation measure, which may provide further clues about future rate cuts. Many forecasts predict a slowdown in core PCE, reinforcing the case for continued rate cuts by the FED. Additionally, safe-haven flows are further supported by prolonged geopolitical risks, including the Russia-Ukraine conflict and concerns over economic impacts from U.S. tariffs. Furthermore, strong gold buying activity from global central banks plays a crucial role in strengthening the bullish outlook for the precious metal.

How to Control Trading Risk Factors1. Understanding Trading Risk Before controlling trading risk, you must understand what “risk” means in trading. 1.1 Definition of Trading Risk Trading risk refers to the potential for financial loss resulting from trading activities. It arises due to various internal and external factors, including market volatility, economic changes, human errors, and systemic uncertainties. 1.2 Types of Trading Risks Trading risks can be broadly categorized as follows: Market Risk: Losses due to price movements in stocks, commodities, forex, or derivatives. Liquidity Risk: The inability to buy or sell assets at desired prices due to insufficient market liquidity. Credit Risk: The risk that counterparties in trades fail to meet obligations. Operational Risk: Risks arising from human errors, technology failures, or process inefficiencies. Systemic Risk: Risks related to the overall financial system, such as economic crises or political instability. Understanding these risks allows traders to create a comprehensive strategy for mitigation. 2. The Psychology of Risk 2.1 Emotional Discipline Trading is as much psychological as it is technical. Emotional decisions often lead to risk exposure: Fear: Selling too early and missing profit opportunities. Greed: Over-leveraging positions and ignoring risk limits. Overconfidence: Ignoring stop-loss rules or trading based on intuition alone. 2.2 Behavioral Biases Behavioral biases amplify trading risk: Confirmation Bias: Seeking information that confirms existing beliefs. Loss Aversion: Avoiding small losses but risking larger ones. Recency Bias: Overweighting recent market trends over long-term data. Controlling these psychological factors is critical to managing risk effectively. 3. Risk Assessment and Measurement 3.1 Position Sizing Determining how much capital to allocate to a trade is crucial: Use the 1–2% rule, limiting potential loss per trade to a small fraction of total capital. Adjust position size based on volatility—larger positions in stable markets, smaller positions in volatile markets. 3.2 Risk-Reward Ratio Every trade should have a clear risk-reward profile: A risk-reward ratio of 1:2 or 1:3 ensures potential profit outweighs potential loss. For example, risking $100 to gain $300 aligns with disciplined risk control. 3.3 Value at Risk (VaR) VaR calculates potential loss in a portfolio under normal market conditions: Traders use historical data and statistical models to estimate daily, weekly, or monthly potential losses. VaR helps in understanding extreme loss scenarios. 4. Risk Mitigation Strategies 4.1 Stop-Loss Orders Stop-loss orders are essential tools: Fixed Stop-Loss: Predefined price point to exit the trade. Trailing Stop-Loss: Moves with favorable price movement, protecting profits while limiting downside. 4.2 Hedging Techniques Hedging reduces exposure to adverse market moves: Use options or futures contracts to protect underlying positions. Example: Buying put options on a stock to limit downside while holding the stock long. 4.3 Diversification Diversification spreads risk across multiple assets: Avoid concentrating all capital in one asset or sector. Combine stocks, commodities, forex, and derivatives to balance risk and reward. 4.4 Leverage Management Leverage magnifies both gains and losses: Use leverage cautiously, especially in volatile markets. Understand margin requirements and potential for margin calls. 5. Market Analysis for Risk Control 5.1 Technical Analysis Identify trends, support/resistance levels, and patterns to anticipate market moves. Use indicators like RSI, MACD, Bollinger Bands to time entries and exits. 5.2 Fundamental Analysis Evaluate economic indicators, corporate earnings, and geopolitical factors. Understanding macroeconomic factors reduces exposure to unforeseen market shocks. 5.3 Volatility Monitoring Higher volatility increases risk; adjust trade size accordingly. Use VIX (Volatility Index) or ATR (Average True Range) to measure market risk. 6. Trade Management 6.1 Pre-Trade Planning Define entry and exit points before executing trades. Calculate maximum acceptable loss for each trade. 6.2 Monitoring and Adjusting Continuously monitor positions and market conditions. Adjust stop-loss and take-profit levels dynamically based on market behavior. 6.3 Post-Trade Analysis Review each trade to identify mistakes and improve strategy. Track metrics like win rate, average profit/loss, and drawdowns. 7. Risk Control in Different Markets 7.1 Stock Market Diversify across sectors and market capitalizations. Monitor earnings releases and economic indicators. 7.2 Forex Market Account for geopolitical risks, interest rate changes, and currency correlations. Avoid excessive leverage; use proper position sizing. 7.3 Commodity Market Hedge with futures and options to mitigate price swings. Consider global supply-demand factors and seasonal trends. 7.4 Derivatives Market Derivatives can be highly leveraged, increasing potential risk. Use proper hedging strategies, clear stop-loss rules, and strict position limits. 8. Risk Management Tools and Technology 8.1 Automated Trading Systems Algorithmic trading can reduce human emotional error. Programs can enforce stop-loss, trailing stops, and position sizing automatically. 8.2 Risk Analytics Software Platforms provide real-time risk metrics, VaR analysis, and scenario simulations. Enables proactive decision-making. 8.3 Alerts and Notifications Real-time alerts for price levels, volatility spikes, or margin requirements help mitigate sudden risk exposure. 9. Capital Preservation as the Core Principle The fundamental rule of trading risk control is capital preservation: Avoid catastrophic losses that wipe out a trading account. Profitable trading strategies fail if risk is not controlled. Focus on long-term survival in the market rather than short-term profits. 10. Professional Risk Management Practices 10.1 Risk Policies Institutional traders operate under strict risk guidelines. Examples: Daily loss limits, maximum leverage caps, and mandatory diversification. 10.2 Stress Testing Simulate extreme market conditions to assess portfolio resilience. Helps prepare for black swan events. 10.3 Continuous Education Markets evolve constantly; traders must learn new techniques, understand new instruments, and adapt to regulatory changes. 11. Common Mistakes in Risk Management Overleveraging positions. Ignoring stop-loss rules due to emotional bias. Failing to diversify. Trading without a risk-reward analysis. Reacting impulsively to market noise. Avoiding these mistakes is essential for long-term trading success. 12. Conclusion Controlling trading risk factors requires a blend of discipline, knowledge, planning, and continuous monitoring. Traders must combine: Psychological control to avoid emotional decision-making. Analytical tools for precise risk measurement. Strategic techniques like diversification, hedging, and stop-loss orders. Capital preservation mindset as the foundation of sustainable trading. Successful risk management does not eliminate losses entirely but ensures losses are controlled, manageable, and do not threaten overall trading objectives. By adopting a systematic and disciplined approach to risk, traders can navigate volatile markets confidently, optimize returns, and achieve long-term financial success.

Daily Trading Plan: Liquidity Zones & Bullish Outlook📊 Market Context Gold is holding strong after its breakout, trading near 3760 USD/oz as safe-haven demand stays elevated. The combination of geopolitical tensions, global fund flows into ETFs, and a weaker USD continues to support the bullish bias. For Indian traders, gold’s rally is closely watched as both an investment hedge and a short-term trading opportunity. While the broader structure remains bullish, price may first sweep liquidity in key zones before pushing towards higher levels. 🔎 Technical Analysis (H1/H4/2H) Price recently tested 3760, confirming bullish momentum. Immediate support: 3725, marked as a CP retest zone. Stronger support: 3689–3690, overlapping with OBS + FVG demand zone. Resistance targets: 3788 (short-term liquidity pool) and 3805–3830 (major liquidity area). Overall structure: Still bullish, but likely to retest demand zones before the next leg higher. 🔑 Key Levels Resistance / Sell Zones: 3760 ➡️ 3788 ➡️ 3805–3830 Support / Buy Zones: 3725 ➡️ 3689–3690 📈 Scenarios & Trading Plan ✅ BUY ZONE 1 (Shallow Pullback): 3725 SL: 3716 TP: 3760 ➡️ 3788 ➡️ 3805 … ✅ BUY ZONE 2 (Deeper Liquidity Retest): 3689–3690 SL: 3680 TP: 3725 ➡️ 3760 ➡️ 3788 ➡️ 3830 … ✅ SELL SCALP (Liquidity Trap Setup): Around 3788–3805, if rejection patterns confirm SL: 3810 TP: 3775 ➡️ 3760 ➡️ 3740 … ⚠️ Risk Management Notes Watch out for false breakouts above 3788 or below 3725 – liquidity sweeps are common. Enter trades only after confirmation; avoid chasing price in the middle of the range. Keep risk per trade controlled, as Fed speeches and geopolitical headlines could spark volatility. ✅ Summary Gold remains in a strong uptrend, with 3788–3805 as the next upside magnet. The plan is to buy dips at 3725 or 3689–3690, while keeping an eye on potential short-term sell setups near 3788–3805. The bias stays bullish, but risk management is key. 📢 Follow MMFLOW TRADING for intraday updates, liquidity-based setups, and strategies tailored for global gold traders.

STEVEN XAUUSD – Buy Scenario Aligned with the TrendTechnical Analysis Gold continues its strong upward trend after breaking out from the previous accumulation zone. Currently, the price has tested the 3,742–3,744 range and is showing signs of pausing for a short-term correction. The EMA200 H1 (3,662) remains upward sloping, confirming that the main uptrend is intact. Fibonacci Retracement for the latest upward move: The 0.786 level (3,738) coincides with the Volume Profile area – this is the first support for the short-term buy scenario. The 0.618 level (3,707) coincides with the old resistance now turned support – a strong confluence, suitable for finding the main Buy point. The RSI (14) is around 63–65, not yet in the overbought zone, indicating there is still room for an increase. Trading Scenario Buy aligned with the trend Entry 1: 3,738–3,740 SL: 3,730 TP: 3,750 – 3,760 Entry 2: 3,707–3,710 SL: 3,695 TP: 3,738 – 3,760 – 3,780 Price Levels to Watch 3,742–3,744: short-term resistance, may cause adjustments. 3,738–3,740: nearby support, suitable for quick Buy. 3,707–3,710: strong support, important Buy zone. 3,780–3,785: extended resistance, target of the upward trend. This is a reference scenario, not an investment recommendation. Stay tuned for earlier analyses and scenarios in upcoming sessions.

Elliott Wave Analysis XAUUSD – September 23, 2025 Momentum • D1: Momentum is in an uptrend, currently on the 3rd bullish candle of the cycle. This suggests we may see at least 2 more bullish daily candles from now. • H4: Momentum has turned bearish, indicating the possibility of a corrective decline within today’s H4 structure. • H1: Momentum has already turned bearish and is approaching oversold territory. This shows the current decline is weakening, and a short-term rebound is likely. However, if momentum turns back up and enters the overbought zone but fails to break the previous high, another bearish leg may follow. ________________________________________ Wave Structure • D1: After completing wave 4 (yellow), price broke the previous high, confirming the continuation of the uptrend. Wave 5 (yellow) targets are projected at 3789.019 and 3887.117. • H4: Wave 3 (yellow) has completed, followed by a corrective structure in a flat WXY pattern. Currently, price is rising steeply, suggesting wave 5 (yellow) is underway. With H4 momentum turning bearish, this pullback could correspond to wave 4 within the ongoing wave 5 (yellow). • H1: Wave 3 (black) has formed with a complete 5-wave sequence (blue). Price is now in wave 4 (black), which could develop as a Zigzag, Flat, or Triangle correction. Wave 4 (black) target zones: 1. 3729.447 2. 3709.732 3. 3696.422 Once H4 momentum turns bullish from the oversold region, the nearest level among these zones is the most likely end of wave 4. ________________________________________ Trading Plan Buy limit strategy at support zones: • Buy Zone 1: 3730 – 3727 o SL: 3719 o TP: 3760 • Buy Zone 2: 3710 – 3707 o SL: 3696 o TP: 3729 If price extends lower, additional buy opportunities can be considered around 3696 or deeper levels marked on the chart. ________________________________________ 👉 The primary trend remains bullish, with wave 5 (yellow) in progress. The plan is to wait for wave 4 (black) to complete and then enter Buy positions in alignment with the larger uptrend.

XAUUSD – Wolfe Waves forming on H4 chart, clear correction signaHello Trader, On the H4 chart, gold is forming a quite standard Wolfe Waves pattern. The 5th wave has completed, and the price is moving into the crucial resistance zone of 3760 – 3770, which is also a potential Sell Zone. Given the current structure, the preferred scenario is a short-term downward correction before the main trend resumes. Technical Analysis The price has touched the 2.618 Fibonacci Extension and reacted with a decline, indicating profit-taking pressure. The MACD still shows the previous buying force was quite strong, but the histogram is starting to weaken, aligning with the possibility of a correction wave emerging. Area 3760 – 3770: a critical resistance zone, also coinciding with the 5th wave line of Wolfe Waves. Trading Scenario Sell order according to Wolfe Waves Entry: 3760 – 3770 SL: 3782 (above resistance zone) TP: 3710 -3660 -3610 – 3620 (key level Wolfe target) Sell when price confirms below trendline Entry 3727-3730 sl 3735 tp 3715-3700-3686-3665 Short-term Buy Scalping Entry: 3705 – 3708 SL: 3700 TP: 3720-3730 – 3745- 3766 Note: This is just a short-term retracement strategy, going against the correction, so risk management is crucial. Conclusion Short-term: Prioritise observing reversal signals at 3760 – 3770 to Sell. Medium-term: Wait for Buy opportunities around 3564 – 3574 to align with the main trend. The market is entering a distribution and correction phase, so patiently waiting for candle confirmations at key zones will be key to optimising entry. This is the Wolfe Waves scenario I propose for gold during this period. You can refer to and adjust according to your own strategy. Follow me for the fastest updates when the price structure changes.

Gold 1H – Fed Signals & Geopolitics Keep Bulls on the MoveGold on the 1H timeframe is trading around 3,705–3,710 after a strong breakout, staying within a rising channel. Liquidity is concentrated above at the premium resistance zone near 3,716–3,718, while demand is positioned lower at 3,687–3,689 and deeper at the FVG zone 3,654–3,656. Recent dovish signals from the Fed following last week’s rate cut, coupled with rising geopolitical tensions, continue to bolster safe-haven demand. However, upcoming U.S. inflation data and Fed speakers could trigger engineered moves into premium supply before retracements into discount demand zones. ________________________________________ 📌 Key Structure & Liquidity Zones (1H): • 🔴 SELL ZONE 3,718–3,716 (SL 3,725): Premium resistance where liquidity sweeps may cause short-term rejections targeting 3,710 → 3,700 → 3,690. • 🟢 BUY ZONE 3,687–3,689 (SL 3,680): Near-term demand zone aligned with channel structure, offering a pullback entry targeting 3,695 → 3,700 → 3,715+. • 🟢 FVG BUY ZONE 3,654–3,656 (SL 3,647): Deeper discount support, attractive for longer setups targeting 3,670 → 3,685 → 3,700+. ________________________________________ 📊 Trading Ideas (Scenario-Based): 🔺 Buy Setup – Pullback to Demand (3,687–3,689) • Entry: 3,687–3,689 • Stop Loss: 3,680 • Take Profits: TP1: 3,695 TP2: 3,700 TP3: 3,715+. 🔺 Buy Setup – FVG Sweep (3,654–3,656) • Entry: 3,654–3,656 • Stop Loss: 3,647 • Take Profits: TP1: 3,670 TP2: 3,685 TP3: 3,700+ 🔻 Sell Setup – Premium Liquidity Run (3,716–3,718) • Entry: 3,718–3,716 • Stop Loss: 3,725 • Take Profits: TP1: 3,710 TP2: 3,700 TP3: 3,690. ________________________________________ 🔑 Strategy Note The Fed’s dovish stance and safe-haven flows from geopolitical risks are sustaining bullish momentum, but intraday structure suggests smart money may first engineer stop-runs into premium resistance before retracing toward demand. Maintain buy-the-dip bias at defined support zones, while cautiously fading liquidity sweeps near 3,716–3,718. Volatility could increase as markets await fresh U.S. inflation data and Fed policy remarks.

XAUUSD – Gold Trading Plan: Fresh Record Highs & Fibo Zone React📊 Market Context Gold regained strong bullish momentum on Monday, surging to a new record high above 3,720 USD/oz. The Fed’s dovish outlook, signaling the possibility of two additional rate cuts this year, continues to support non-yielding assets like gold. At the same time, geopolitical risks remain a tailwind for safe-haven demand. 🔢 Technical Analysis (H2) Immediate Resistance / SELL Zones: 3,818.769 – Key reaction zone where sellers may defend aggressively. 3,754.890 – Secondary SELL zone reaction area for short-term pullbacks. Mid-Level Support / BUY Zone: 3,694.521 – First key area to watch for dips and potential buy reactions. 3,660.130 – Stronger support level if price pulls back deeper. Major BUY Zone Reaction: 3,583.663 – Critical confluence of structure and Fibonacci support, a potential bounce zone if a major correction unfolds. 📈 Suggested Trading Scenarios 1️⃣ Bullish Continuation Setup BUY: Look for pullbacks to 3,694–3,660 with bullish candlestick confirmation. Targets: 3,754 → 3,818, leave partial position open if momentum breaks higher. Stop Loss: Below 3,645 for safer positioning. 2️⃣ Countertrend SELL Setup SELL: Enter short at 3,754–3,818 zones only with strong rejection signals. Targets: 3,694 → 3,660, trail stops aggressively to lock profits. 3️⃣ Deep Correction Opportunity BUY: If price flushes to 3,583–3,585, consider scaling into longs. Targets: 3,660 → 3,754, aligning with the broader uptrend. ⚠ Key Trading Notes Expect increased volatility with Fed guidance and ongoing geopolitical risks.

Avoid mid-range entries; focus on well-defined zones for optimal risk-to-reward setups. 💬 Community Discussion 📊 Will gold sustain its rally toward 3,818 or see a deep pullback before another leg higher?

Gold's Rally Continues: Why a Fed Cut Isn't Slowing It DownHello, traders! Gold started the new week on an impressive note, trading at $3,685 in early Monday's session. The main drivers are the market's continued reaction to the Fed's recent rate cut and escalating geopolitical events. So, the big question is, how far will this rally go? Fundamental Analysis: Why Is Gold Still Soaring? Although the Fed cut interest rates by 0.25%—the first time in 2025—Chair Jerome Powell maintained a cautious stance, calling it a "risk management cut." While this initially caused some market jitters, in the long run, lower interest rates are a strong supporting factor for gold. Lower Rates: They reduce the opportunity cost of holding gold, which is a non-yielding asset. Geopolitical Tensions: Conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East are escalating, boosting safe-haven demand. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy reported that Russia carried out a major drone and missile attack, reaffirming gold's role as a protective asset against global risks. Technical Analysis: Breaking Resistance, The Uptrend Continues Gold had a powerful rally at the start of the week, successfully breaking the key resistance zone at $370x. The price is currently hovering around $3720 with a slight correction, but the uptrend remains firmly intact. Outlook: Given the strong upward momentum, short-selling (going short) with a tight stop-loss is extremely risky. We will continue to prioritize long positions (going long) as long as gold holds above the $370x level. Suggested Trading Strategy (Strict Risk Management): BUY SCALP Zone: $3413 - $3711 SL: $3407 TP: $3716 - $3721 - $3726 - $3731 - $3741 BUY ZONE Zone: $3700 - $3798 SL: $3790 TP: $3708 - $3718 - $3728 - $3738 - $3758 SELL ZONE Zone: $3734 - $3736 SL: $3744 TP: $3726 - $3716 - $3706 - $3796 - $3779 The market is showing unpredictable volatility.

Part 3 Learn Institutional Trading1. Introduction to Option Trading Option trading is one of the most fascinating areas of financial markets. Unlike buying shares of a company, where you directly own a piece of the business, option trading gives you the right but not the obligation to buy or sell an underlying asset (like stocks, indices, currencies, or commodities) at a specific price within a specific period. This flexibility makes options powerful tools for hedging, speculation, and income generation. However, the same flexibility also makes them risky if not handled with proper knowledge. Many beginners are drawn to the huge profit potential in options, but without understanding the risks, they often lose money quickly. 2. What Are Options? Basic Concepts An option is a financial derivative contract. It derives its value from an underlying asset (like Reliance shares, Nifty index, gold, crude oil, or even USD/INR). When you buy an option, you’re not buying the asset itself; you’re buying the right to transact in that asset at a pre-decided price, called the strike price. Example: Suppose you buy a Call Option for Reliance at ₹2500 strike price, valid for 1 month. If Reliance’s stock rises to ₹2600, you can exercise your right to buy at ₹2500 (cheaper than market). If Reliance falls to ₹2400, you can simply let the option expire worthless (you don’t have to buy). This right-without-obligation feature is what makes options unique. 3. Key Terms in Option Trading Before diving deeper, let’s decode the important terminology: Strike Price – The fixed price at which you may buy/sell the underlying. Expiry Date – The date when the option contract ends. Premium – The cost you pay to buy the option. Lot Size – Options are traded in fixed quantities (e.g., Nifty option = 50 units per lot). Underlying Asset – The stock, index, or commodity on which the option is based. Exercise – The act of using your right to buy or sell at strike price. Settlement – How the trade is closed (cash settlement or physical delivery). 4. Types of Options (Call & Put) Call Option A Call Option gives you the right (not obligation) to buy the underlying at a fixed strike price before expiry. Buyers of Calls = Bullish (expect price to rise). Sellers of Calls = Bearish/Neutral (expect price to stay same or fall). Put Option A Put Option gives you the right (not obligation) to sell the underlying at a fixed strike price before expiry. Buyers of Puts = Bearish (expect price to fall). Sellers of Puts = Bullish/Neutral (expect price to stay same or rise).

"Bullish Breakout Potential for Gold (XAU/USD) Above Key ?Key Observations: The price is currently rising and is reaching a key resistance level. A potential breakout is shown above the resistance at approximately 3,723. A blue support zone between 3,686 and 3,690 suggests that the price has recently bounced off this level, implying bullish momentum. The target price shown in the chart (with the green box) is positioned around 3,730, indicating that the trader is expecting further upward movement. The stop-loss is placed just below the support zone, around 3,672, which suggests that the trader is managing risk.
