August 26 Gold AnalysisAugust 26 Gold Analysis The gold market is volatile but firm. Following yesterday's sharp rise, gold prices retreated slightly today, but are still holding key support levels. Spot gold is currently trading around $3,370 per ounce, down slightly from yesterday's two-week high of $3,378. Market forces are intertwined, and gold prices are expected to fluctuate around key technical levels in the short term, but the medium- to long-term bullish outlook remains unchanged. Analysis of Influencing Factors 1. Fed Policy Expectations Dominate Market Sentiment Federal Reserve Chairman Powell delivered a clear dovish signal at the Jackson Hole symposium, opening the door to a September rate cut. Powell focused on the "strange equilibrium" in the job market, noting that the simultaneous slowdown in labor supply and demand suggests accumulating downside risks. While he continued to warn of inflationary uncertainties, he explicitly stated that "a shift in the balance of risks may require a policy response." This statement caused the market's probability of a 25 basis point rate cut in September to surge from 75% to 90%. Expectations for the cumulative rate cuts by year-end were also revised upward. Powell's speech placed the labor market at the center of policy decisions, downplaying the impact of recent higher-than-expected inflation data. 2. Political Pressure and Concerns About the Fed's Independence It is worth noting that Powell's dovish stance may, in part, reflect political pressure. Given that US President Trump and the Treasury Secretary, among others, have strongly urged the Fed to cut interest rates significantly, Powell faces unprecedented pressure. Trump also reiterated his threat to fire Fed Governor Timothy Cook if she does not resign, raising concerns about the Fed's independence. This political interference in the central bank has weakened market confidence in the US dollar as a reserve currency, becoming a key driver of the decline in the US dollar index and indirectly supporting gold prices. 3. Economic Data and Market Focus Market focus has shifted to upcoming US economic data, which will have a significant impact on gold's short-term performance: - Today: July durable goods orders data will be released. Following a sharp 9.3% drop in June, the market expects a further 4% drop. Positive data could boost the US dollar and weigh on gold prices. - Thursday: Revised second-quarter GDP figures will be released, with the initial estimate of annual growth at 3%. Downward revisions are bearish for the dollar and supportive for gold, while upward revisions are the opposite. - Friday: July's core PCE price index (the Fed's most closely watched inflation indicator) will be released. This data will directly impact the strength of expectations for a rate cut. A higher-than-expected reading will cast doubt on the urgency of rate cuts and weigh on gold prices; a lower-than-expected reading will reinforce expectations of easing and drive a rebound in gold prices. 4. The US Dollar and US Treasury Yields Decline Following Powell's speech, the US dollar index fell sharply, 0.96%, to 97.66. US Treasury yields also fell across the board, with the two-year yield plummeting 10.2 basis points to 3.69% and the 10-year yield falling to around 4.259%. A steepening yield curve reduces the cost of holding gold, enhancing its appeal. 5. Geopolitical Risks Provide Support Geopolitical tensions continue to provide safe-haven support for gold prices: - Trade Tensions: Trump's tariff policy continues to escalate global trade tensions. The United States has imposed an additional 25% tariff on India, bringing the total tariff rate to 50%. - Russia-Ukraine conflict: The escalating tensions have also provided some safe-haven support. Trading Recommendations - Aggressive investors: Initiate long positions in batches when gold prices fall back to the $3,360-3,368 support area, with a stop-loss below $3,350 and a target of $3,385-3,400. - Conservative investors: Wait for gold prices to effectively break through $3,400 before entering long positions, or enter medium- to long-term long positions if they fall back to $3,340-3,350. - Risk Management: Ensure stop-loss orders are set appropriately to avoid the risks associated with volatile market fluctuations around the release of data. Maintain position management during trading and avoid trading without risk management. Trade with caution and manage risk effectively! Wish you good luck!

Gold (XAUUSD) – Strength Weakening & Repeat of Structure 🔎 Market Context Price made a sharp bullish rally, but momentum slowed down quickly. After the rally, we see sideways consolidations (boxed zones), showing lack of follow-through from buyers. This is a repeat structure – first big box (distribution) → breakdown → second smaller box (again distribution). 📌 Strength Weakening Signs Impulsive move up but no higher continuation. Sideways zones repeating → indicates repeated failure of bulls. Volume fading → buyers not aggressive, sellers absorbing. 📊 Repeat of Structure First consolidation broke to the downside → shift of control to sellers. Current consolidation is a mirror repeat of the previous structure. If breakdown repeats again, it confirms weak bullish strength and further downside is likely. ✅ Trading View Bias: Bearish – Expectation of repeated structure breakdown. Confirmation: Support break with volume push. Invalidation: Breakout above resistance with strong momentum. 🔑 Key Levels Resistance: 3386 – 3391 Support: 3365 – 3357 Breakdown target: Towards 3340 & below if repeat structure plays out.

Gold Faces Resistance at 3.380–3.385, Correction LikelyLooking at the H2 XAU/USD chart, gold is struggling around 3.380–3.385 USD, where the supply FVG aligns with the upper Kumo edge. Recent candles indicate sellers are dominating: short bodies, long wicks, and lack of volume suggest buyers lack momentum. With a series of lower highs and a flat Ichimoku cloud ahead, a pullback appears likely. Immediate support is near 3.355 USD, with a further decline possible toward 3.345 USD.

Trade Management Systems: Comparing Two Methods 📌 Method 1 – Normal SL & TP Entry → Open trade at ENTRY. Stop Loss (SL) → Fixed (below ENTRY for buy / above ENTRY for sell). Take Profits (TP1 & TP2) → Both active. When TP1 is hit → Book partial position. SL stays the same → risk remains on the rest of the trade. ✅ Advantage: More potential profit if market extends to TP2. ❌ Risk: If price reverses after TP1, the remaining position can still hit SL → reducing overall profit. 📌 Method 2 – Breakeven Stop (SL = ENTRY after TP1) Entry → Open trade at ENTRY. SL initially fixed. When TP1 is hit → Book 50% profit, then move SL to ENTRY (breakeven). Remaining position: If TP2 is hit → book extra profit. If price falls back → exit at ENTRY (no loss). ✅ Advantage: Trade becomes risk-free after TP1. ❌ Risk: Sometimes market hits TP1 then pulls back, causing breakeven exit → missing bigger gains compared to Method 1. 📌 Enhanced System (Your Version with Fixed Risk) Initial SL → Always set at 2R. TP1 → When reached, book 50% profit (+1R on half). Then move SL to ENTRY (breakeven) for the remaining 50%. 📊 Possible Outcomes: Scenario Result Price hits SL (before TP1) –2R loss Price hits TP1, then reverses to ENTRY +0.5R profit Price hits TP1, then TP2 +2R total profit ⚖️ Summary Method 1 (Normal SL & TP) → More profit potential, but carries more risk on the remaining position. Method 2 (SL = ENTRY after TP1) → Safer, risk-free after TP1, but sometimes cuts off bigger gains. Your Enhanced Version → A defensive system: Losers are limited (–2R). Small winners (+0.5R) happen often. Big winners (+2R) balance out losses. 💡 With consistent discipline, even a 40–45% win rate can make this system profitable.

Gold Plan 26/08 – Captain VincentXAU/USD – Trump’s surprise move sparks a Gold rally. What’s the next scenario? 1. News Wave 🌍 Trump unexpectedly dismissed FED Governor L. Cook , citing “irresponsible recent financial decisions.” 👉 A political–monetary shock that pushed Gold up by more than 30 points from the 3,350 – 3,352 zone, as investors feared internal instability at the FED could weaken the USD. Safe-haven demand has been activated, but Gold is unlikely to “fly in a straight line.” The market often requires a pullback to fill liquidity gaps before a clear trend develops. 2. Technical Outlook ⚙️ Price bounced sharply from Golden Harbor 🏝️ (Buy Zone 3350 – 3342) – a key support area. Currently, Gold is testing Storm Breaker 🌊 (Resistance 3384 – 3400) , a liquidity cluster → potential for profit-taking sell orders. On H1, multiple FVGs formed around 3363 and 3355 → price may retrace to “fill the gap” before continuing. 👉 Intraday bias: Prioritise Sell at resistance, but watch for short Buy Scalp setups at Quick Boarding 🚤 (3342 – 3340) . 3. Captain Vincent’s Map – Key Levels 🪙 Storm Breaker 🌊 (Main Resistance): 3384 – 3400 Quick Boarding 🚤 (Buy Scalp): 3342 – 3340 | SL 3333 | TP: 3345 → 3347 → 3350 → 33xx Golden Harbor 🏝️ (Buy Zone): 3350 – 3342 FVG Zones: Around 3363 & 3355 (short-term price magnets) 4. Trade Scenarios 📌 🔻 SELL at Storm Breaker 🌊 (Priority) Entry: 3400 – 3402 SL: 3408 TP: 3395 → 3390 → 33xx 🔺 BUY Scalp – Quick Boarding 🚤 Entry: 3342 – 3340 SL: 3333 TP: 3345 → 3347 → 3350 → 33xx 5. Captain’s Note ⚓ "Trump’s news wave pushed Gold like an unexpected headwind. But Storm Breaker 🌊 ahead may unleash rough seas. The wise will anchor at Golden Harbor 🏝️ , while the bold may ride Quick Boarding 🚤 for fast scalps. And remember: today’s golden sea depends on the sharks at the helm."

GOLD sell setup Gold (XAUUSD) – Short Trade Idea 🔑 Key Observations: Strong Rejection Zone: Price faced rejection at the previous high (highlighted in purple supply zone). Multiple attempts to break above failed, confirming seller presence. Volume Confirmation: The sharp bullish push from the bottom was met with equally strong selling pressure at the top. Volume spikes indicate distribution at higher levels. Market Structure: Clear lower high formation after rejection. Entry aligns with a retracement into the supply zone. 📊 Trade Setup: Entry: Short near supply zone (around 3374–3379). Stop-Loss: Above recent swing high (3380 area). Target: 3356 level (previous demand zone). Risk/Reward Ratio: ~1:5 (high probability setup). ⚠️ Risk Management: Always use a stop-loss to protect capital. Consider trailing stop-loss once trade moves in favor, to lock in profits. If price breaks and closes above supply, setup becomes invalid.

Gold Scenario – Tracking the Medium-Term UptrendGold Scenario – Tracking the Medium-Term Uptrend Hello traders, Gold continues to follow the expected scenario. Price reacted at the Fibonacci 1.618 resistance, effectively completing the liquidity test. At present, the 3368 zone is a good area to look for buying opportunities. The previous Elliott cycle has already completed its ABC waves, and gold now appears to be forming a new Elliott structure. Currently, price is likely in wave 3 of the uptrend, reacting at the H4 descending trendline with a mild pullback, before completing wave 5 with a breakout move from the channel and confirming the flag pattern on H4. Strategy: Buy around 3368 with a strict stop-loss just below the previous swing low. Target: 3410 is a reasonable profit level. After that, expect wave 4 to form and look for short opportunities from there. The MACD remains supportive, trading above its average levels and confirming bullish momentum. At this stage, it’s all about timing entries correctly. This is my personal outlook on gold in the short to medium term. Use it as reference and don’t forget to share your views in the comments so we can learn from each other.

Elliott Wave Analysis – XAUUSD 26/08/2025 1. Momentum • D1 timeframe: Price is currently in the overbought zone. The ongoing bullish cycle has already produced 5 daily candles. Combined with the overbought condition, this suggests that upside momentum is weakening. If no strong breakout occurs within the next 1–2 days, it is likely that the market is still in a larger corrective phase on the daily chart. • H4 timeframe: Momentum has turned bearish, with strong selling pressure emerging right after wave 2 was considered complete. This is an unusual sign and raises caution for the bullish scenario. • H1 timeframe: Momentum is also about to turn bearish, which implies an incoming corrective pullback. This is not an encouraging signal at a stage where wave 3 is expected to develop. 2. Wave Structure • D1: The main scenario still follows the larger corrective triangle. Price is unfolding waves 1–2 (green), and the current bullish leg is expected to be wave 3 (green). However, the strength so far has not been convincing. Having already completed 5 D1 candles without a decisive breakout suggests weakness in the rally. • H4: The Asian session opened with a strong rally, but this momentum quickly faded and was followed by aggressive selling. Momentum reversed sharply, highlighting abnormal behavior for the expected uptrend. • H1: At the 3387 level, strong selling pressure appeared, whereas this should have been the breakout zone for wave 3 (black) after surpassing wave 1 (black). Ideally, price should have pushed straight toward 3403 to confirm the impulsive strength of wave 3. This unusual behavior suggests that wave 1 (black) actually completed at 3387, and the market is now in wave 2 (black). On the lower timeframe (M15), the current decline is forming an ABC structure, with the measured target for wave C at 3364 – a potential buy zone. If price falls back to 3350 and breaks below, the 1–2–3–4–5 (yellow) count will be invalidated. In that case, the market may be unfolding a larger corrective structure, and the wave count plan will need to be updated. 3. Trading Plan • Buy Zone: 3365 – 3363 • Stop Loss: 3349 • Take Profit 1: 3387 • Take Profit 2: 3403 ⚠️ Note: The stop-loss range is relatively wide, and momentum does not fully support the bullish wave scenario yet. Traders should consider carefully before entering directly.

Gold Weekly Plan: Correction or New Rally Ahead? 🇮🇳Gold surprised everyone last week with a strong rally after the Jackson Hole symposium. The weakness in USD gave bulls fresh momentum, and now traders are once again eyeing the possibility of a new ATH in the coming weeks. But remember — after every big impulse, the market loves to test patience. A short-term correction is possible before the next strong leg up. This is where smart traders prepare, while emotional traders often get trapped. 📊 Technical Outlook (H4 Chart) Gold is moving inside a tight triangle pattern, signaling that a breakout is close. Friday’s bullish candle shows the market still favors buyers, but watch out: gold often dips lower before making a major breakout move. The strategy? Stay disciplined and only enter at confirmed Key Levels. 📌 Key Levels to Watch Resistance: 3370 – 3383 – 3400 – 3425 Support: 3350 – 3340 – 3326 – 3315 🔥 Trading Plan (MMFlow Strategy) BUY ZONE 🟢 Entry: 3340 – 3338 SL: 3334 Targets: 3345 – 3350 – 3355 – 3360 – 3370 – 3380 – 3390 – 3400+ SELL ZONE 🔴 Entry: 3400 – 3402 SL: 3407 Targets: 3395 – 3390 – 3385 – 3380 – 3375 – 3370 ✨ Question for Indian Traders: Do you think Gold will retest supports first or break 3400 directly? 🚀

Gold SMC Playbook 25/08 – Liquidity Hunt at 3400 & 3325Market Context (SMC Perspective) Price is consolidating near 3367 after a strong impulsive move upward and is currently reacting around a minor resistance area. Clear ChoCH and BOS patterns indicate bullish intent on the H1 timeframe; however, liquidity pools still lie below 3343 and 3325 (buy-side liquidity). Imbalance zones spotted: 3343–3341 and a deeper order block zone around 3325–3323. Key Levels Resistance (Supply): 3372 – 3382 – 3389 Support (Demand): 3350 – 3342 – 3325 SMC Bias: Mixed – Opportunities to Play Both Long & Short Around Liquidity 🔴 SELL Scenario (Short-Term Liquidity Grab) Entry: 3400 – 3403 (above local liquidity sweep) Stop Loss: 3408 Targets: TP1: 3390 (partial) TP2: 3380 TP3: 3370 TP4: 3360 (opens 3350 liquidity zone) Rationale: Expecting a sweep above 3400 into supply, followed by mitigation and a sell-off. 🟢 BUY Scenario (Bullish Continuation from Demand OB) Entry 1 (Scalp Buy): 3343 – 3341 (reactive zone), SL 3337 Entry 2 (Main OB): 3325 – 3323 (strong OB), SL 3319 Targets: TP1: 3330 TP2: 3340 TP3: 3350 TP4: 3370 (opens 3390 liquidity) Rationale: Price may retrace below 3340 to fill imbalance and mitigate the 3325 OB before the next bullish leg. Execution Plan (SMC Flow): Wait for a liquidity sweep at highs or lows (above 3400 or below 3325) with proper confirmation. Look for ChoCH and BOS signals on LTF (M5–M15) around OB zones for entry confirmation. Trail stop loss after TP1 is hit; take partial profits and hold the remaining position toward the final liquidity target.

Elliott Wave Analysis – XAUUSD 24/8/2025 Momentum • D1 timeframe: Momentum is still rising → High probability that price will continue its bullish move on Monday. • H4 timeframe: Momentum remains bullish → Price is expected to keep rising early in the week to complete wave (3) in yellow. • H1 timeframe: Momentum is heading into the oversold zone → The short-term correction is nearing its end, we look for buy opportunities. Wave Structure • D1 timeframe: Friday’s strong bullish candle reinforces the scenario that wave (1) and (2) in blue are complete, and wave (3) in blue may already be forming. We need price to break above the top of wave (1) in blue to confirm the development of wave (3). • H4 timeframe: Price rallied sharply and broke above the top of wave (1) in yellow → This confirms price is currently in wave (3) in yellow. With momentum on H4 still rising, wave (3) likely has more room to continue. • H1 timeframe: The corrective ABC structure has completed, followed by a sharp and steep rally (as projected in Friday’s plan). Price broke above 3350 – the top of wave (1) in yellow → Confirming the scenario that price is in wave (3) in yellow. o Minimum target for wave (3) in yellow: 3387. o Principle: Do not counter-trade wave (3); instead, wait for wave (4) correction to look for buy entries in wave (5). Trading Strategy With H1 approaching the oversold zone and showing a mild correction, we have two options for entries: 1. Breakout: Wait for price to break above the small descending trendline as shown on the chart → Enter breakout buy. 2. Pullback entry: Wait for price to retrace to the 3362 area → Buy from there. Trade Plan: • Buy Zone: 3364 – 3361 • Stop Loss: 3354 • Take Profit: o TP1: 3378 o TP2: 3387 o TP3: 3403

Gold Trading Strategy | August 25-26 ✅ Daily Chart: Gold prices remain within a consolidation range, with 3380–3400 as the key resistance zone and 3350–3355 as the critical support area. During the U.S. session, there is slight upward momentum; if 3380–3400 is broken, it could open further upside potential. ✅ 4-Hour Chart: After forming a bottom in the 3311–3321 region, gold rebounded strongly to a high of 3378 and is now consolidating at higher levels. MA5 is turning upward, with MA10 and MA20 following, confirming a short-term bullish trend. MACD shows a bullish crossover with expanding red bars, indicating sustained bullish momentum. KDJ is at high levels but showing signs of a possible pullback. The overall bullish structure remains intact, but caution is needed if resistance at 3380–3400 triggers a short-term retracement. ✅ 1-Hour Chart: Gold is fluctuating between 3360–3380, with MA5, MA10, and MA20 intertwined. Price action is sticking close to short-term moving averages, reflecting a tug-of-war between bulls and bears. MACD red bars are shrinking, signaling weakening momentum, while KDJ is overbought and may form a bearish crossover, suggesting a possible short-term pullback. The 3360 support level must be watched closely. 🔴 Resistance Levels: 3380–3400 🟢 Support Levels: 3355–3350 ✅ Trading Strategy Reference: 🔰 If price faces clear resistance at 3380–3400, consider light short positions with targets at 3360–3350. 🔰 If price stabilizes and rebounds from 3350–3355, consider light long positions, stop-loss below 3344, targeting 3380–3390. 🔰 If price breaks above 3400 with strong volume, consider buying after a pullback to 3380–3390, aiming for 3420–3450. ✅ Conclusion: Gold is currently in a range-bound but bullish-biased structure. The medium-term bullish trend remains intact, but short-term price action will depend on whether gold can break above the 3380–3400 resistance zone or maintain support at 3360–3350.

XAU/USD: Rally Strengthened by News FlowGold remains in a positive stance after the “dovish” signals from the Fed at Jackson Hole, with expectations of a September rate cut gaining traction. As a result, the US Dollar has weakened, providing additional support to XAU/USD. On the chart, price has rebounded from the 3,313 support zone and is now eyeing the key resistance around 3,405. A decisive break above this level could extend the rally towards 3,440 – an area that has previously attracted heavy selling pressure. On the other hand, any minor pullback would likely be seen as a “buy-the-dip” opportunity within the current uptrend. With alignment between fundamentals and technicals, XAU/USD is flashing a clear bullish signal, making it favourable for traders to ride the upward momentum.
