Gold Record: Shutdown 'Blinds' the Fed Hello, traders! Gold shows absolutely no sign of slowing down, closing the October 1st session at $3,866.66/oz, while futures contracts hit a record high of $3,897.50/oz. The precious metal has climbed nearly 50% year-to-date and just set its 39th record high this year! Fundamental Analysis: Shutdown Risk Hits at the Worst Time While government shutdowns usually have a minor impact, the timing of this one is critical: Delayed Jobs Data: The crucial jobs report (scheduled for Oct 3rd) will be postponed. This uncertainty will leave the market and the Fed 'blind' regarding the economy's health just weeks before the next policy meeting, triggering strong demand for safe-haven assets (Gold). Threat of Staff Cuts: President Trump threatened to use the shutdown to cut "a lot of" federal employees, escalating tensions beyond typical closures and increasing political instability. Technical Analysis & Trading Strategy Gold accelerated past the $387x region during the US session, confirming the upward momentum is still very strong. However, the market is prone to more "Stop Loss hunting" (liquidity sweeps). Continue to Prioritize Buy, but manage SL carefully due to wider price swings. Resistance: $3887, $3895, $3904 Support: $3870, $3854, $3843 Suggested Trading Strategy (Absolute Risk Management): BUY ZONE Zone: $3870 - $3868 / SL: $3860 TP: $3878 - $3888 - $3898 - $3908 SELL ZONE (High Risk) Zone: $3903 - $3905 / SL: $3913 TP: $3895 - $3885 - $3875 Gold is running on a foundation of fear. Do you think the $3900 mark will be breached this session? 👇 #Gold #XAUUSD #ATH #Fed #GovernmentShutdown #TradingView #FinancialMarkets #RecordHigh

Gold 1H – Will Liquidity Above 3903 Fuel Reversal?Gold on the 1H timeframe is consolidating near 3,872 after multiple ChoCHs, with the next liquidity cluster resting above 3903–3901. Market structure shows engineered liquidity sweeps possible at premium supply, aligning with short-term sell opportunities. On the downside, a defined FVG buy zone and discount demand around 3832–3834 provide scope for continuation if tapped. From the macro side, traders remain cautious ahead of upcoming U.S. economic data, while a resilient dollar and persistent geopolitical risks in energy markets continue to shape volatility. This backdrop supports tactical plays: fading rallies into premium supply while preparing to join the move from discount demand zones. ________________________________________ 📌 Key Structure & Liquidity Zones (1H): • 🔴 SELL GOLD 3903–3901 (SL 3910): Premium liquidity sweep zone. Downside targets at 3880 → 3860 → 3845. • 🟢 BUY ZONE SUPPORT 3832–3834 (SL 3825): Discount demand aligned with FVG mitigation. Upside targets at 3855 → 3875 → 3890+. ________________________________________ 📊 Trading Ideas (Scenario-Based): 🔻 Sell Setup – Liquidity Sweep at 3903–3901 • Entry: 3903–3901 • Stop Loss: 3910 • Take Profits: • TP1: 3880 • TP2: 3860 • TP3: 3845 🔺 Buy Setup – FVG Mitigation at 3832–3834 • Entry: 3832–3834 • Stop Loss: 3825 • Take Profits: • TP1: 3855 • TP2: 3875 • TP3: 3890+ ________________________________________ 🔑 Strategy Note Gold remains range-bound but liquidity-driven. Expect engineered sweeps above 3903 before deeper corrections, while discounted dips into 3832–3834 offer potential continuation setups. Flexibility is key: fade rallies at premium, but scale into buys if liquidity clears into discount demand.

BUY GOLD UNTIL WAVE 5 END - BIG SHORT IN NEXT 2 DAYS 📊 Trading Plan based on SMC + Elliott Wave 1. Market Context SMC (Smart Money Concept): Price is consolidating around a strong liquidity zone. Evidence of a stop hunt / long squeeze before a potential reversal. The 3820 – 3822 area acts as a Demand Zone, where Smart Money is likely accumulating buy orders. Elliott Wave: Current structure suggests we are in Wave IV (corrective phase). A confirmed breakout above 3895 (previous ATH) would validate the start of Wave V, with Fibonacci targets around 3915 – 3920 (1.272 – 1.618 FE). 2. Trading Logic 🔺 Buy Setup (SMC-based) Entry Zone: 3820 – 3822 (Demand Zone). This zone is expected to hold as institutional liquidity support. Ideal area to position for the anticipated Wave V rally. 🔺 Breakout Buy (Elliott confirmation) Trigger: Clean breakout above 3895 (ATH) with confirmation. Target: Expansion towards 3915 – 3920 (Fibo extensions). This confirms Wave V continuation. 🔹 Short-term Sell (Scalping idea) Entry Zone: 3913 – 3915 (Supply Zone + liquidity cluster). Short-term reaction expected → possible retracement towards 3885 – 3870. Note: This is counter-trend, only for scalping opportunities. 3. Trade Scenarios (SMC + Elliott Wave combined) Price taps Demand Zone (3820 – 3822) → Long position targeting Wave V. Breakout above ATH 3895 → Confirmation of Wave V → Continue long towards 3915+. At 3913 – 3915 (Supply Zone) → Expect short-term reaction → Intraday short setup. 4. Risk Management Stop Loss for Buys: below 3816 (Demand invalidation). Stop Loss for Shorts: above 3920 (Supply invalidation). Main bias = long (Wave V continuation). Short trades = counter-trend only (scalping pullbacks). 👉 In summary: SMC view: Trade around liquidity pools (Demand/Supply Zones). Elliott view: Structure suggests Wave IV is ending, Wave V expansion is next → bias remains bullish.

XAUUSD – Maintaining the Core Uptrend (BUY Bias) Hello traders, On the H4 timeframe, gold continues to show a steady upward trend. After testing the upper trendline, price bounced back and is now consolidating around the 386x region. This suggests the market may be in an accumulation phase, awaiting major news. Fundamental Context Tomorrow, the market will look towards the release of the Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) data, an event that often brings strong volatility to gold prices. In addition, concerns around the potential US Government shutdown are adding to the macro uncertainty, further supporting gold’s safe-haven appeal. At present, there is little evidence to suggest gold will decline, particularly when other markets are also breaking higher. Technical Analysis Price continues to trade within the ascending channel on H4, with buyers holding the advantage. MACD remains above the zero line, showing no clear signs of weakness. Price is likely to consolidate further in the 3860 – 3870 range before a sharp move triggered by news. Trading Plan Buy Setup (preferred – trend following) Entry: 3829 – 3832 SL: 3825 TP: 3845 – 3862 – 3877 – 3890 Sell Scalping (counter-trend, higher risk) Entry: 3927 – 3930 SL: 3934 TP: 3915 – 3900 – 3882 – 3865 Note: Sell setups should be treated only as short-term scalps, as the primary bias remains on the buy side. Conclusion Gold is holding firmly within the uptrend structure, with no significant weakness yet. Given the backdrop of political uncertainty and the upcoming NFP release, the priority remains buying at suitable support zones. Any sell trades should be viewed as quick reactions rather than core positions. 👉 Follow me to get the latest updates as soon as price structure changes.

Gold Market Analysis – Sell Opportunity Emerging in XAU/USDGold has been climbing with strong momentum, but the current leg is showing signs of transition. After a period of consolidation, the market expanded upward, taking liquidity from previous highs and creating an extended run. This behavior often reflects the final stage of a bullish cycle before rebalancing begins. What stands out now is the engineered path of price: a push into untested liquidity zones above, followed by a potential shift as large players unwind positions. Once liquidity is collected at the extremes, price tends to rotate back into inefficiencies left behind during the rapid climb. This suggests gold is not simply trending higher, but moving through a liquidity cycle. The near-term structure favors a sweep of higher levels, then a corrective phase where price retraces to refill imbalances and reset order flow for the next directional move.

ATH $3871: Shutdown Fear & 97% Fed Cut Fuel Gold Surge Hello, investors and traders! Gold continues to show phenomenal strength, setting a new ATH at $3,871.45/oz (on Sept 30), and closing at $3,843.43/oz. This gain confirms the strongest September since 2011, solidly confirming the explosive growth trend for the yellow metal. Fundamental Analysis: Politics and the Fed Drive Buying Wave Two core drivers are pushing gold prices higher, making any attempt to short (call the top) extremely risky: Political Instability: The risk of a looming US Government shutdown is ratcheting up uncertainty and strongly boosting safe-haven demand. Low-Rate Expectations: Weakening US jobs data has nearly locked in the probability that the Fed will cut interest rates in October. The market is currently pricing in a 97% chance of a Fed rate cut. Technical Analysis & Trading Strategy After a recent shock drop of 70 points, Gold quickly absorbed the selling pressure and created a new ATH, proving that buying pressure is overwhelming. The strong upward bias is undeniable. Outlook: Continue to Prioritize Buy given the powerful trend and supportive fundamentals. Only attempt Sell strategies near psychological resistance levels with an extremely tight Stop Loss (SL). Key Resistance: $3894, $3904, $3914, $3924 Key Support: $3869, $3843, $3834 Suggested Trading Strategy (Absolute Risk Management): BUY SCALP Zone: $3870 - $3868 / SL: $3864 TP: $3875 - $3885 - $3900 BUY ZONE Zone: $3834 - $3832 / SL: $3824 TP: $3842 - $3862 - $3892 SELL SCALP (High Risk) Zone: $3904 - $3906 / SL: $3910 TP: $3901 - $3891 - $3876 SELL ZONE (High Risk) Zone: $3925 - $3927 / SL: $3935 TP: $3917 - $3907 - $3897 - $3887 - $3877 - $3867 The market is running on fear and rate-cut anticipation.

XAUUSD – Gold Smashes to New ATH: Bulls in Full Control📊 Market Overview Gold has surged into uncharted territory, breaking through to a fresh All-Time High (ATH). The earlier dip toward 3,800 USD acted as nothing more than a springboard, allowing buyers to reload before launching this powerful breakout. Safe-haven demand continues to fuel the rally, as concerns over a potential US government shutdown and expectations of more Fed rate cuts strengthen bullish momentum. 📍 Crucial Levels to Watch 🔴 SELL Reaction Zone 3,911 – 3,915 (Liquidity Resistance) → Potential short-term ceiling, profit-taking may appear here. 🟢 BUY Reaction Zones 3,830 – 3,820 (Fibo Support) → First pullback level for intraday buyers. 3,808 – 3,810 → Secondary support zone for a deeper correction. 3,747 – 3,752 (Liquidity BUY Zone) → Stronger base for swing buyers. 🎯 Trading Setups 1️⃣ Buy the Dip (Primary Play) Entry: 3,830 – 3,820, confirmation needed.

US Government Shutdown, Gold Benefits & FOMO BUY Continues📊 Market Context The gold market kicks off Q4/2025 with great enthusiasm as safe-haven flows continue to surge. Not only that, the potential delay of the NFP employment report this week further fuels the market's "thirst" for directional information, positioning gold as the central asset in everyone's sights. Meanwhile, the USD is under pressure from political uncertainties and expectations that the Fed is moving closer to further rate cuts. Combined, the current picture shows that gold is not only maintaining its strength after a breakout rally but also has the opportunity to expand and conquer new high price territories, as safe-haven capital and FOMO momentum from the BUY side continue to amplify. 🔎 Technical Analysis (H1/H4) The price maintains the main upward trend, staying above the support structure. Important BUY ZONE: 3833–3831 (Fibo + CP zone) – this area is likely to react strongly. Secondary BUY ZONE: 3817–3815 (OBS zone) – stronger support, suitable for accumulating additional BUY orders. Resistance area 3919–3923 (Liquidity Sell Zone) may be where liquidity traps appear. ✅ BUY ZONE 1: 3833–3831 SL: 3827 TP: 3838 - 3842 - 3846 - 3850 - 3855 - 3860 - 3870 - ??? ✅ BUY ZONE 2: 3817–3815 SL: 3810 TP: 3822 - 3826 - 3830 - 3835 - 3840 - 3850 - 3860 - 3870 - ??? ✅ Summary Gold is directly benefiting from political instability and the delay in US economic data. The main trend remains BUY with safe-haven flows, with strategic zones at 3833–3831 and 3817–3815. The expansion target aims for 3870–3880 and beyond to 3920+ if buying momentum remains strong.

Gold 1H – Correction or Continuation After Supply Test?Gold on the 1H timeframe is trading near 3,861 after consolidating below a premium supply zone at 3876–3874. Structure shows a recent BOS to the upside, but current rejection signals potential engineered liquidity sweeps into the nearby FVG and discount demand zones. The first support rests at 3796–3798, aligning with discount territory and previous accumulation, offering scope for continuation if price reacts positively. From the macro side, today’s headlines point to persistent U.S. dollar strength as traders await fresh Federal Reserve guidance on inflation and rate path. Meanwhile, heightened geopolitical concerns in energy markets are maintaining safe-haven flows, adding volatility to gold’s intraday swings. This dual backdrop sets up a tactical approach: fading rejections at supply while being prepared to enter on discounted dips at demand. ________________________________________ 📌 Key Structure & Liquidity Zones (1H): • 🔴 SELL GOLD 3876–3874 (SL 3883): Premium supply zone, downside targets at 3850 → 3835 → 3815. • 🟢 BUY ZONE SUPPORT 3796–3798 (SL 3790): Discount demand zone aligned with BOS, upside targets at 3820 → 3845 → 3860+. ________________________________________ 📊 Trading Ideas (Scenario-Based): 🔻 Sell Setup – Supply Rejection (3876–3874) • Entry: 3876–3874 • Stop Loss: 3883 • Take Profits:  TP1: 3850  TP2: 3835  TP3: 3815 🔺 Buy Setup – Demand Mitigation (3796–3798) • Entry: 3796–3798 • Stop Loss: 3790 • Take Profits:  TP1: 3820  TP2: 3845  TP3: 3860+ ________________________________________ 🔑 Strategy Note Gold remains in a corrective phase after testing supply. Expect liquidity sweeps into discount levels before continuation. With the dollar strengthening and Fed commentary in focus, intraday traders should: • Fade supply rejections at 3876–3874. • Scale into buys around 3796–3798 if liquidity is cleared.

Targets: 3,871 → 3,808 Stop: Above 3,928 ⚡ Trading Notes Gold remains in a strong bullish channel – selling should only be tactical and short-term.

GOLD ATH: US Shutdown Drama! Buy The Dip, Yaar? Gold just smashed a new record at $3,833.37/oz (Sept 29) on high safe-haven demand due to the impending US Govt shutdown (Oct 1) and solid FED rate cut hopes. USD pullback (0.2%) also playing its part. The sudden dip to $3,794 looks like pure end-of-month profit-booking, not a proper reversal. If US tensions worsen, the Buy opportunity is still very much active! 📈 Technical View & Intraday Trade Setup Gold has done a major flush, stopping out the weak hands. Selling pressure is there, but the drop without big news suggests caution. Look for a technical bounce to fill the FVG before a potential continuation lower. Key Levels: Resistance: $3827 / $3846 / $3870 Support: $3787 / $3778 / $3763 Detailed Trading Strategy (US Session): 1. BUY Zone (Aggressive Dip Buy): Entry: $3784 - $3782 SL: $3774 TP: $3792 / $3812 / $3832 2. SELL Scalp (Quick Short): Entry: $3827 - $3829 SL: $3833 TP: $3824 / $3814 / $3804 3. SELL Zone (Main Short Entry): Entry: $3866 - $3868 SL: $3876 TP: $3858 / $3838 / $3818 ⚠️ Alert! The US Government Shutdown news is the main event. If budget talks are positive, Gold might see a sharp fall. Manage risk (SL) like a boss! Kya lagta hai?
