HOW PRICE REACTS TO DEMAND liquidity zones play a crucial role in shaping market moves. When price hits a demand or supply zone, it's often just the beginning of a liquidity hunt. We frequently see price spiking to these areas to “sweep” liquidity—essentially taking out stop losses and trapping both buyers and sellers who enter too early. Typically, the market likes to form structures such as double bottoms or double tops, which attract breakout traders. But more often than not, price reverses unexpectedly after these formations, trapping breakout traders on the wrong side. After these liquidity sweeps, the market gathers the fuel it needs to move with purpose, often correcting imbalances left behind from rapid moves. This collected liquidity enables a strong, healthier momentum in either direction. So, patience is key—waiting for confirmation of liquidity grabs at resistance or support zones gives a stronger signal and often provides safer entry points.

GOLD ANALYSIS FOR 5TH NOV <ELECTION PREDICTION>Gold Technical Analysis Update At the moment, gold is hovering around a key order block area, showing some attempts to hold this level. We've seen price action break highs but with significant retracements, often pulling all the way back to previous swing lows. However, notably, these retracements aren't resulting in any candle closures below these lows, which could imply sustained support. For potential longs, a break above the minor resistance could open up some upside opportunities. However, keep in mind the target here is limited, likely reaching only the recent swing high. For shorts, we would need a decisive break and retracement below the major order block to confidently enter. My suggestion? Wait for a solid break of the swing highs before considering longs to reduce risk exposure. US Elections and Market Volatility With the U.S. elections in play, the market is set to become highly volatile. This environment is ideal for stop-loss hunting, with rapid buying and selling likely on both sides of the market. My advice? Today might be a day to stay out and watch the action from the sidelines. The market could swing unexpectedly, so protect your capital by avoiding any trades. If you found this analysis helpful, make sure to like, follow, and comment for more trading insights!

REASON I DONT LIKE SL ENTRY CONCEPTTrade Analysis on Higher Time Frames and Entry Execution: Starting from a higher time frame, we identified a significant order block, indicating a potential area for price reaction. Moving down to the 15-minute time frame, we observed that price was struggling to break its recent high, signaling potential resistance at that level. After the high was eventually broken, we held back, waiting for either a retracement or for price to fill any imbalances created in the process. Once these conditions were met, I identified a strong entry signal with a bullish engulfing candle, complemented by a break of recent highs on a smaller time frame. Confident in the setup, I entered the trade. Price quickly moved towards my take profit, so I decided to secure the trade by moving my stop-loss (SL) to the entry point. However, as often happens, price pulled back, hitting my SL at entry before moving back in my favor to hit the original take profit (TP) target. This example shows the drawbacks of using trailing stops or moving SL to entry, particularly in scenarios where price is volatile or experiences quick pullbacks. For me, setting a predefined SL and TP without adjustments tends to yield the best results, reducing the risk of being stopped out prematurely in strong setups.

GOLD SL LEARNING 4TH NOVIn our recent trade, we observed gold holding below a key order block while consistently forming lower lows, unable to break previous highs. This behavior often signals potential for a buyer trap. Based on our strategy, we noted two critical indicators of a trap: Double Bottom Pattern: When gold forms a double bottom near the lows, it’s often an 80% probability trap for buyers, encouraging premature long positions. Trendline Breakouts: A breakout without breaching highs can also act as a setup to lure buyers, especially when price aligns with an order block. Trade Execution Plan price was at order block , our plan was to enter short once gold broke the recent lows, expecting the setup to confirm the downward momentum and trap buyers who anticipated a reversal. We had solid confirmation across the 1, 3, and 5-minute time frames. However, after entry, a bullish engulfing candle formed on the 15-minute chart, pushing price into sideways movement and eventually hitting our stop-loss. Market Context & Takeaways In volatile markets, it’s challenging to wait for higher time-frame confirmations as the market moves quickly, demanding timely risk-taking. Losses are part of the process, and our strategy remains sound with consistent results. In the last 7 days, I’ve recorded only 2 stop-losses, with all other trades hitting take-profit targets. For more insights, follow for updates on trading lessons and setups.

GOLD ANALYSIS 4TH NOVStructure & Retracement: Price has broken structure and retraced back below. A minor order block is acting as support. Short Setup: If price breaks this order block, retests it, and the lows start breaking on a short time frame, consider shorts. Watch for signs of trapped sellers with wicks below the order block. Long Setup: If price creates higher highs with an engulfing candle on a lower time frame, you can look for longs, targeting the upper liquidity zones. Key Candle Analysis: Monitor the 15-minute candle closely to gauge strength. Aim to minimize your stop loss as much as possible. Please like, comment, and follow

Positive Delta formation of past week !We can see there is positive delta formation on past week's daily candle, but we can see today there is negative delta formation on Monday candle which is yet green in formation, but has negative sentiment on buyer accumulation as its in contrast. The current daily time frame candle is in constant compression format. which means buyers did try to take a high tall from yesterdays lows but the current market is not able to cheer up the price any further hence resulting on negative delta formation. Current recommendation is Buy only if price breaks today open high price with SL as todays candle low.

Gold Trend 04/11 - S-T peakedDriven mainly by the US election and economic figures last week, the gold price pulled back from the newly formed record high. With the US election approaching, the gold market opened strong early last week. A better-than-expected US consumer confidence on Tue. led to a breakthrough of the previous high at 2758 (1), triggering a new round of S-T buying until it reached 2790 and the US 3Q GDP and ADP employment on Wed. However, the upward momentum reversed on Thursday after the core PCE inflation data, setting off a round of short-selling and profit-taking pushing gold prices back below the 2750-2758 resistance zone(3). Friday's US employment data fell significantly below expectations, but the gold price still failed to close above 2758(3), the week ended at 2735. Gold prices retreated from 2790 with significant profit-taking action reflected in the number of COMEX gold open interest on Oct. 31st. The profit-taking activities should persist early this week ahead of two major events (the US election and the Federal Reserve interest rate meeting). Unless there is a strong market reaction with a Trump victory or additional aggressive rate cuts from the US Fed. sparking a new round of S-T buying, it is unlikely that gold prices will reach over 2790 this week. 1-hr chart (above) > Gold price broke the support line (2) last week, indicating a slowdown of the upward momentum. The selling pressure was relatively strong above 2758(3) as the price failed to clear the resistance zone(3) after the extremely weak US employment figures last Friday. Before the result of the US election and the US Fed., the S-T trading range is now set at 2710-2750 (4). Daily Chart (above) > The Gold price was rejected by the upper resistance of the uptrend channel (5) last week, followed by a single-day drop of over $40 last Thursday, an S-T reversal signal has appeared on the daily chart. Investors are waiting for the news to impact the market from the US election and the US Fed. meeting, the S-T trend should remain bearish for now. The first target on the daily chart is at 2715 (6) and the 20-day moving average (7). If you like our ideas, please give us a 🚀 ! P.To

Gold (XAU/USD) – Strong Support at 2735Overview: Gold (XAU/USD) is currently facing a critical support zone at 2735. Recently, price action has repeatedly tested this level, only to be rejected, highlighting the strength of this support. The inability of gold to break below this level creates a potential opportunity for a buying strategy, particularly if confirmed by price patterns. Market Structure Analysis Key Support Level at 2735: The 2735 level has proven to be a substantial technical support zone, with price retesting it multiple times without a clear breakdown. This suggests strong buying interest at this level, making it an attractive zone to consider buy positions if favorable price action appears. Market Momentum: Given the global economic uncertainties and weakened growth expectations from major economies, gold continues to hold its position as a safe-haven asset. Therefore, the 2735 support level holds significance not only technically but also psychologically, as it represents a key point of interest for market participants. Short-Term Trend: In the recent price action, gold seems to be oscillating around the 2735 level, indicating potential accumulation before a decisive breakout. This scenario makes a buying strategy around the support zone practical if confirmed by reversal candlestick patterns or technical indicators. Suggested Trading Strategy Entry Point: Wait for a reversal candlestick pattern (such as a Pin Bar or Bullish Engulfing) or a clear technical signal around the 2735 zone. Waiting for pattern confirmation helps manage risks effectively. Stop Loss: Place a stop loss just below the 2735 level, ideally 20-30 pips below this support, to protect capital in case of a breakdown. Take Profit: Potential resistance levels for profit-taking include 2760 and 2785, as these zones might attract selling pressure if gold sees a strong bounce from the support level. Additional Analysis: Fundamental Factors to Watch In addition to technical analysis, fundamental factors are crucial for trading gold. Key factors include: Monetary Policy: Interest rate decisions from major central banks, especially the Fed, significantly impact gold prices. Lower interest rates generally favor gold. Geopolitical Tensions: Rising geopolitical tensions often drive demand for gold as a safe-haven asset, which could support a rebound from the 2735 zone. Economic Data: Monitoring key economic indicators, such as inflation and GDP growth, can provide insights into investor sentiment toward gold. Conclusion With the strong support zone at 2735 providing a solid foundation, a buy strategy with confirmation signals could yield favorable returns. However, traders should remain cautious of a potential breakdown below support and adhere to disciplined risk management. This analysis aims to provide a comprehensive view to help traders make informed decisions and capitalize on gold’s trend in the near term.

GOLD IDEA FOR 4TH NOV "Recently, gold broke below an order block, attracting sellers—only to trap them by pushing higher. Currently, gold is within a key order block and has dipped to grab liquidity from recent lows. There’s potential for it to move lower, trapping demand buyers, before luring in more sellers by appearing to break the demand zone, and then possibly reversing upward to fill major imbalances. "If this turns into a genuine breakdown, we could see strong momentum similar to the recent 400-pip move. Reversals in the market are notoriously tricky—they often act as traps for traders. That’s why caution is key: watch for confirmation and don’t rush in without clear signals. This is why it’s essential to wait for a retracement and observe whether lows and highs are being broken before taking a position. Always prioritize confirmation.

A strong bearish engulfing candle formed on both the 5-minute and 15-minute charts, signaling potential downside. The next candle in the 5-minute chart showed solid rejection, further confirming the entry. With a setup yielding a 1:4 risk-to-reward (RR) ratio, we closed the trade early before reaching the take-profit level due to the impending close of the gold market. Hope you enjoyed this analysis!
