XAUUSD Daily Sniper Plan – July 14, 2025Hey team 👋 and welcome to a fresh new week on the charts!
We’re starting this Monday without any major news — just pure price action, clean zones, and structure doing all the talking. No distractions. No excuses. Let’s lock in our focus and let the market show us where the edge is.
🔸 Bias: Bearish while below 3390
Last week’s rejection from the H1 premium zone (around 3375) created clear signs of exhaustion. Price is now forming lower highs and lower lows, with clean CHoCHs on both H1 and M15. Until we reclaim 3390, we remain bearish — waiting for the next lower high to form.
🔽 Sniper Sell Zones (above current price)
3360–3370 → H1 premium FVG + CHoCH OB + EMA5 cap
3380–3390 → Inducement zone + internal imbalance + RSI divergence
🔼 Sniper Buy Zones (below current price)
3310–3320 → Discount FVG + BOS base + HL support
3280–3290 → Final HL structure zone + fib 61.8% + OB + RSI oversold
🟡 Decision Zone:
3330–3340 → Neutral zone
→ Wait for break and retest or rejection confirmation.
→ No setup = no trade.
🧠 Battle Plan – Execution Scenarios:
🔴 Scenario A – Bearish Setup Active:
If price returns to 3360–3370 or 3380–3390 and shows M15/M30 rejection → enter short.
Target: 3330 → 3310.
If 3390 is broken and held → cancel short bias.
🟢 Scenario B – Bullish Setup Activated:
If price sweeps 3320 or 3290 and reacts with strong bullish PA (engulfing or CHoCH) → enter long.
Target: 3340 → 3360.
No confirmation = stay flat, do not anticipate.
🟡 Scenario C – No Reaction / Choppy Flow:
If price consolidates between 3330–3340 without clean rejection or break → wait.
Let price show its hand. Today is Monday — we need clarity, not emotion.
Every level in this plan was drawn with purpose — no shortcuts, no borrowed zones.
If you value structure, discipline, and originality in your trading, you’re in the right place.

XAUUSD H4 Outlook – July 15, 2025After a sharp early-week move, gold is now pressing into H4 supply with clean CHoCHs and clear inducement in play. With CPI data and multiple FOMC speakers on deck, volatility is rising — and so are the opportunities. Let’s break down the current structure.
🔸 H4 Market Bias
Bias: Bearish unless we close firmly above 3420
Structure: Internal bearish flow remains → HL formed at 3210 → CHoCH → current move likely inducement
Context: Price has filled key FVGs and is testing unmitigated OBs in premium, with RSI approaching exhaustion
🔼 Zones Above Current Price:
3445–3465:
This is the weak high and final layer of buy-side liquidity. It includes an unfilled FVG and marks the upper limit of the premium range. If price reaches this zone, it’s likely to act as a trap before a deeper rejection.
3405–3420:
A clean imbalance zone left after the initial CHoCH push. It has already shown rejection once and is now positioned as the key area where a lower high could form. If price reacts here, it confirms continuation to the downside.
3360–3385:
This is the core supply OB, created from the CHoCH. It also aligns with the premium boundary and EMA21 resistance. Current price is already reacting here. Rejection confirms the bearish bias.
🔽 Zones Below Current Price:
3340–3355:
A minor wick-fill zone from past reactions. It may provide a small pause, but it’s structurally weak and more likely to break on momentum. Not a major support.
3300–3280:
This is the key intraday demand zone. It’s built from a previous BOS and sits at the 50% retracement of the last bullish leg. If this zone breaks, we open up deeper downside potential.
3240–3210:
The strongest demand OB on the chart. This is the HL origin and the 61.8% fib zone. If gold reaches here, expect a major decision: bounce or break.
3185–3160:
The final liquidity base under the higher low. If price sweeps this zone, it signals a major shift — potentially invalidating the June rally structure.
📊 Indicators & Flow Notes:
EMAs (5/21): Crossed bullishly, but testing overextension at 3360
RSI: Leaning overbought → potential for rejection at current zone
Volume: Bearish pressure expected if price fails to close above 3385
Fibonacci (last bullish leg): 50% sits at 3285; 61.8% near 3250
🧠 Trade Scenarios:
🔸 Bearish Setup (preferred):
→ Reject inside 3405–3420 → form LH under 3420 → clean drop toward 3300
→ Ideal confirmation = rejection wick or bearish engulfing on M30–H1
🔸 Bullish Breakout (less likely):
→ Break and hold above 3420 = potential squeeze into 3445–3465
→ Must be supported by CPI upside miss or dovish FOMC tone
→ But 3445–3465 remains weak liquidity — not a safe continuation zone

XAUUSD Daily Outlook – July 14, 2025Happy Sunday, traders. Gold opens the week inside a compressed range under key premium resistance, with CPI and FOMC speakers loading the macro agenda. Let’s break down today’s structure and expectations.
🔸 D1 Structure Overview:
Bias: Neutral with bearish pressure building
Trend: Still technically bullish, but compressing between LH OB and mid-range FVG
Current Position:
Price is trapped below 3395, inside a lower high structure
No clear BOS yet — but bearish CHoCH already formed
EMAs are tightening and RSI is neutral → signs of indecision
🧭 Key Daily Zones:
Zone Type Price Range Confluences
🔼 Supply Zone 3448–3465 Daily OB + FVG + Weak High trap + EMA divergence
🔼 LH OB 3385–3395 Structure cap + internal supply + EMA21 rejection
🔽 Mid FVG Demand 3328–3310 Daily FVG + fib midpoint + prior reaction
🔽 Strong OB Support 3260–3245 Unmitigated OB + fib 61.8% + sweep low base zone
Fibonacci: Pullback toward 3310 = mid-retracement of last bullish impulse
EMA 5/21/50: Bearish crossover confirmed, but no strong divergence yet
RSI: Flat, suggesting reactive play — confirmation must come from PA
📊 Macro Outlook:
Core CPI data drops today → key for market expectations on inflation
Multiple FOMC members will speak — high potential for whipsaw moves
Gold may remain volatile and range-bound until post-CPI structure resolution
📌 Trade Scenarios:
Bearish case: Reject from 3385 → continuation toward 3310 or deeper into 3245
Bullish case: Clean break & retest above 3395 → short-term pump into 3460 liquidity
Confirmation matters — follow the reaction at each zone, don’t rush reversals.

Weekly XAUUSD Outlook (July 14–19, 2025)Hey team — we're entering a decisive week on gold as macro tensions heat up and price dances inside a key premium range. Let’s dive into what the chart is telling us.
🔸 HTF Bias: Weekly Structure Breakdown
Bias: Bullish with exhaustion signs
Current candle: Bearish rejection forming after last week's lower high inside the premium range
Trend: Still bullish overall, but stalling inside a distribution-like pattern
Weekly structure:
Confirmed CHoCH in early 2023 launched the bullish leg
Break of structure toward Higher High (HH) continues but weak high was created near 3500
We’re currently inside a weekly premium range, rejecting the upper quadrant
🔸 Key Weekly Confluences:
Zone Type Price Level Confluences
🔼 Resistance 3490–3500 Weak High + Premium zone + FVG + RSI divergence
🔼 Upper Range 3450–3470 Historical imbalance fill + EMA5 overextension
🔽 Support 3355–3320 Weekly OB + Discount side of premium leg + FVG
🔽 Deep Support 3200–3170 Last strong demand + BOS origin + RSI oversold risk zone
Fibonacci Range: 3500 = top of the bullish extension; 50% retracement sits around 3250
RSI (Weekly): Starting to curve down from overbought territory — watch for structure cracks
EMAs (5/21/50): Strong upside lock remains but a flattening 5EMA hints short-term slow-down
🗓 Macro + News Context:
This week is loaded with high-impact U.S. data and a parade of FOMC speakers:
Core CPI (Monday) and Retail Sales (Thursday) = critical for short-term inflation outlook
FOMC members speaking throughout the week = high chance of volatility spikes
Pre-G20 positioning (Friday–Saturday) could lead to risk-off flows or safety bids on gold
Watch Crude Oil Inventories and Building Permits for risk sentiment impact
The combination of CPI, retail sales, and continuous Fed commentary could cause abrupt sentiment swings — especially if inflation surprises to the upside again.
⚠️ What to Watch This Week:
Any weekly close above 3470 = potential sweep into weak high (3500)
Failure to hold 3355 zone = opens the door to revisit the deeper OB around 3200
Look for a lower high inside premium to confirm bearish weekly intent — otherwise we remain bullish
Any bounce from 3320 must show strong volume + FVG reaction to confirm continuation
✅ Final Notes:
This week is all about patience. We’re in a premium exhaustion phase, and with heavy macro catalysts on the table, gold is primed for a decisive breakout — up or down.
Stay flexible. Let price show its hand around the major zones. We’ll refine sniper entries on H4 and H1 once the weekly opens fully.

GOLD 1H CHART ROUTE MAP UPDATE & TRADING PLAN FOR THE WEEKHey Everyone,
Please see our updated 1h chart levels and targets for the coming week.
We are seeing price play between two weighted levels with a gap above at 3381 and a gap below at 3353. We will need to see ema5 cross and lock on either weighted level to determine the next range.
We will see levels tested side by side until one of the weighted levels break and lock to confirm direction for the next range.
We will keep the above in mind when taking buys from dips. Our updated levels and weighted levels will allow us to track the movement down and then catch bounces up.
We will continue to buy dips using our support levels taking 20 to 40 pips. As stated before each of our level structures give 20 to 40 pip bounces, which is enough for a nice entry and exit. If you back test the levels we shared every week for the past 24 months, you can see how effectively they were used to trade with or against short/mid term swings and trends.
The swing range give bigger bounces then our weighted levels that's the difference between weighted levels and swing ranges.

Bitcoin pushes higher, but its not the only game in townBitcoin is up around 26% this year. A strong gain. But it’s not alone. The higher Bitcoin rises, the less the gains become in percentage terms. It's now in a different league, so a $1,000 or $10,000 move its necessarily what it used to be.
Meanwhile, Gold, silver and copper have also pushed higher in 2025. The Nasdaq 100 is up too. All signs point to a weakening US dollar.
When risk assets and commodities rally together, it's a signal. Investors are shifting. Not out of fear, but to diversify away from the dollar. This is a theme that’s building strength.
Gold is up nearly over 25% YTD. Silver even more. Copper, the industrial bellwether, has joined the rally. These aren’t just trades. They’re strategic moves. A hedge against dollar debasement, inflation, and long-term fiscal risks in the US.
The Nasdaq’s rise tells a similar story. Tech stocks benefit when yields fall and the dollar softens. Big tech also has global revenue exposure. A weaker dollar inflates their earnings in foreign currencies.
What ties all this together? Loss of confidence in the dollar as the sole reserve hedge. Too much debt, too much printing. Central banks know it. They’ve been buying gold for years. Now, retail and institutional investors are catching on.
Bitcoin, the digital alternative to gold, gets the headlines. But it’s part of a broader move. The USD remains the world’s most important currency. That’s not changing tomorrow. But its dominance is being questioned in ways we haven’t seen in decades.
This isn’t just a crypto rally. It’s a dollar diversification play. And it’s gaining momentum.

GOLD DAILY CHART ROUTE MAPHey Everyone,
Daily Chart Follow Up – Structure Still in Full Control
Just a quick update on our daily structure roadmap. Price continues to respect our Goldturn levels with surgical precision.
After the previous bounce off 3272, we’ve now seen over 800 pips of upside follow through. That level once again proved its weight, holding beautifully as support and launching price firmly back toward the upper boundary.
We now have a clear gap overhead at 3433, which sits right near the channel top a familiar rejection zone. With that in play, we’re expecting a range bound dynamic to develop between 3272 and 3433 in the short term.
Here’s what we’re focusing on next:
Range scenario active:
Until price breaks out cleanly, we anticipate swings between 3433 resistance and 3272 support to play out. This is the working range for now.
EMA5 cross and lock:
Watch for a clean EMA5 break and lock, this will be our technical confirmation for whether we’re breaking out of this range or just ping ponging inside it.
Structure remains intact:
No EMA5 breakdown off 3272 during the recent test means buyers remain in control. Until that changes, dips into 3272 continue to offer structured long setups.
Key Levels This Week
Support 3272 Proven bounce zone. As long as this holds, the structure favours upside.
Resistance 3433 Open gap + channel top confluence; expect reaction and potential fade unless we break cleanly with EMA5 confirmation.
As always, we continue to let structure guide the way, measured, deliberate, and data-driven.
Thanks again for all the continued support, every like, comment, and follow is truly appreciated.
Wishing you all a focused and profitable week ahead!

GOLD WEEKLY CHART MID/LONG TERM ROUTE MAPHey Everyone,
Please see update on our weekly chart idea.
Price delivered the rejection at the channel top, so our longer range gap at 3482 remains open overhead. The pullback rejection from channel top extended to 3281 axis precisely where buying interest stepped in, just before the rising channel mid-line, which is edging higher in tandem with price and keeping the broader structure intact.
Key take aways from the latest swing:
Support confirmed:
3281 held on a weekly closing basis, giving us the springboard we needed.
Bounce in motion:
We’ve already reclaimed the prior pivot zone and are now working on the 3387 gap fill; this is the near-term magnet before any attempt at the larger 3482 imbalance.
Structure unchanged:
The channel is still orderly, the EMA5 has curled but hasn’t locked bearishly, and the mid-line continues to ascend beneath price, favouring a measured, step wise climb.
Updated Levels to Watch:
Immediate Support 3281 Proven axis support
Resistance 1 3387 Gap fill target in progress; expect reaction.
Resistance 2 3482 Long standing weekly gap remains the bigger picture objective.
Plan: While 3281 holds, bias remains for a grind higher toward 3387 and ultimately 3482. Should 3281 fail, we reassess at the mid-line for the next structured long setup.
We remain patient and continue reacting to clean structure backed opportunities.

GOLD (XAUUSD): Another Bullish Pattern
Gold perfectly respected a rising trend line on a daily and
bounce from that, as I predicted earlier.
I see a strong bullish pattern on that now.
The price formed a cup & handle pattern and closed
on Friday, testing its neckline.
The next bullish confirmation that you should look for is its breakout.
Daily candle close above 3367 level will provide a breakout validation.
A bullish continuation will be expected then.

Gold Market Update and Recommended Strategy bulls/bears📉 Gold Holds Steady ~$3,354/oz
Moderate USD strength and tariff-driven safe‑haven buying have kept gold anchored in the $3,330–$3,360 zone.
🤝 Trade & Tariff Influence
Tariff headlines—from Canada’s 35% rate to broader threats—have supported gold by boosting safe‑haven demand heading into U.S. CPI.
📊 Technical Watch
Testing resistance at $3,360; full breakout above $3,342–$3,360 opens path to $3,400–$3,500.
Support sits at $3,330–$3,322 (20‑day EMA); breach risks pickup in short‑term bearish momentum.
💼 U.S. Macro & Fed Cues
Inflation data (June CPI due July 15) and Fedspeak ahead of the July blackout window are set to define next directional moves.
🌍 Central Bank Insight
World central banks are stockpiling gold at record rates, creating a bullish backdrop.
⚖ Range‑Bound Outlook
Expect gold to drift between $3,330–$3,360 near‑term, with upside if tariff/CPI triggers materialize.
📉 Short‑Term Bias
Neutral‑to‑bullish; momentum indicators are calm but could shift quickly on macro surprises.
📈 Med‑Term Outlook Bullish
Ongoing central bank demand, trade dynamics, and macro fundamentals still favor a gradual move toward $3,500+.
⭐ Updated Strategy Recommendations
Accumulate on dips near $3,330–$3,320.
Watch resistance at $3,360–$3,400 for profit‑taking or breakout buying opportunities.
Bears may focus on selling rallies near the upper range.

WISH YOU ALL LUCK
Overtrading – The Silent Threat to Consistent PerformanceTrader Psychology | Part 1: Overtrading – The Silent Threat to Consistent Performance
In trading, more does not mean better. One of the most common and damaging psychological pitfalls traders fall into is overtrading — executing too many trades, often without clear setups, simply to stay active in the market.
It’s subtle, it feels productive… but it quietly erodes both your capital and your discipline.
💡 What Is Overtrading?
Overtrading occurs when a trader opens excessive positions, often outside of their strategy or plan. It’s driven by emotions rather than logic, and usually shows up in one of the following forms:
Taking trades without confirmation
Trying to "make back" previous losses (revenge trading)
Forcing trades during low-volume market conditions
Trading simply out of boredom or anxiety about missing out
It’s not just about the number of trades — it’s about why you’re taking them.
⚠️ How to Know You're Overtrading
You're entering trades that don’t meet your criteria
You feel uncomfortable not having an active position
You trade aggressively after a loss
You switch strategies frequently
Your trading feels more like activity than decision-making
You’re losing more in fees/spread than on price movement
🧠 Why Overtrading Happens
🔹 The Need to Be "Active"
Traders often equate activity with productivity. But the truth is, patience is a trading skill — doing nothing is sometimes the most profitable move.
🔹 Pressure to Perform Daily
Some traders feel they must generate daily profits. This mindset leads to forcing trades during uncertain or low-probability conditions.
🔹 Overconfidence After Wins
A short winning streak can create the illusion of control, pushing traders to increase frequency and risk — usually without real setups to back it up.
🔻 The Cost of Overtrading
Rapid Drawdowns: Frequent small losses and transaction costs add up quickly
Emotional Fatigue: Decision-making becomes reactive instead of rational
Loss of Trust in Your System: Not because the system failed — but because it wasn’t followed
Increased Costs: Spreads, commissions, and swaps eat into your margin
Overtrading doesn’t just hurt your balance. It damages your confidence, focus, and mental capital.
✅ How to Stop Overtrading – Practical Fixes
1. Set a Daily Trade Limit
Commit to a maximum number of trades per session (e.g., 2–3 trades). This forces you to wait for the best opportunities.
2. Track Your Trades in a Journal
Log each trade: the setup, your reasoning, emotions, and outcome. Over time, this reveals emotional patterns and helps you regain discipline.
3. Trade Only During Key Market Hours
Avoid trading during illiquid sessions. Focus on London and New York overlaps, where structure and volatility are present.
4. Accept That Flat Is a Position
Not being in a trade is often a smart decision. Staying out preserves capital and prepares you for higher-probability setups.
🎯 Final Thoughts
Overtrading is not a technical flaw — it’s a psychological leak.
If you want longevity in this game, you must master more than charts — you must master yourself.
“The market doesn’t reward activity. It rewards patience, precision, and emotional control.”
Next time you feel the urge to trade "just because" — pause, breathe, and ask yourself: Is this trade part of my edge?

GOLD → Retest of consolidation resistance. Breakout?FX:XAUUSD is consolidating in a symmetrical triangle pattern. The price is stabilizing amid a falling dollar and uncertainty...
Gold is recovering after falling to $3,283 thanks to a weaker dollar and lower bond yields amid concerns over Trump's new tariff threats. The announced tariffs against seven countries, including Brazil and the Philippines, have heightened tensions, partially offsetting the Fed's hawkish signals. Markets are now awaiting new data from the US and speeches by Fed officials, which could influence the further dynamics of gold.
Technically, gold is squeezed between the resistance and support of a symmetrical triangle. The price is being aggressively pushed away from support within a bullish trend, but at the same time, gold is testing resistance for the fifth time, which only increases the chances of a breakout.
Resistance levels: 3330, 3345, 3358
Support levels: 3308, 3295
If gold continues to storm the local resistance at 3330 and the triangle resistance during consolidation, we will have a good chance of catching the breakout and growth. An additional scenario could be growth after a shake-up of the triangle support and the global trend.
Best regards, R. Linda!
CL1! Short Setup – Fading Into Volume Shelf📉 CL1! Short Setup – Fading Into Volume Shelf
🔹 Context:
Price just tapped into a heavy upper volume shelf (68.35–68.50) — the exact area where the prior breakdown started. This zone aligns with rejection highs and the upper edge of the VRVP profile.
📌 Setup Logic:
🔺 Entry: 68.36–68.50 (into supply zone)
⛔ Stop: 68.75 (above liquidity peak)
🎯 Target: 66.78 (prior demand + volume node)
📐 RRR: ~4.0:1
⚠️ Trigger: Do not enter early — wait for rollover of price which it looks like we are getting now.
📊 Why It Matters:
