5/23 Gold Analysis and Trading SignalsGood afternoon everyone!
Gold did not touch our key buy or sell zones yesterday, but flexible intraday range trading worked well, resulting in decent profits.
Currently, the price has reached around 3330, and from a technical standpoint, bulls remain in control. If no negative surprise hits the market, gold could target 3368 today, with a potential to test 3400 resistance next week.
🔔 On the news front, two key events during the U.S. session today deserve attention:
A speech by Fed Governor Lisa Cook on financial stability — may provide hints about the Fed’s stance.
An executive order signed by Donald Trump, which might impact markets depending on its content (e.g., taxes, tariffs, or spending).
Also, note that U.S. markets will be closed next Monday, but this is unlikely to cause major disruptions. Positions held over the weekend can still be adjusted during the Asian session on Monday.
📈 Today’s Trading Recommendations:
📉 Sell near 3382–3398 (Resistance zone)
📈 Buy near 3274–3256 (Support zone)
🔁 Flexible trading levels:

Gold (XAUUSD) Long Setup – Targeting Fresh Highs Bullish Move📊 Chart Breakdown & Market Context:
This 30-minute chart of Gold Spot (XAU/USD) shows a strong bullish price structure that is currently forming higher lows while respecting dynamic trendline support. The chart illustrates demand and supply transfers, which are pivotal concepts in price action trading. Let’s explore the technical reasoning behind this trade setup:
🔄 1. Demand & Supply Shift Zones:
Demand Transferred: Initially, price consolidated within the blue elliptical region. This area saw aggressive bullish pressure that pushed price upward, confirming the presence of institutional demand. As the market progressed, this demand shifted higher — now located at the most recent zone where price bounced after a pullback.
Supply Transferred : A major bearish reaction zone was taken out after the market absorbed selling pressure. This suggests that sellers are no longer in control and demand is rebalancing in favor of buyers.
📈 2. Bullish Structure Confirmation:
After the pullback on May 22, price formed a higher low, perfectly aligned with both the new demand zone and the ascending trendline support. This confirms that buyers are defending this area.
The price is currently pushing upward from this demand, signaling a potential bullish continuation.
The 50% equilibrium level of the recent bearish leg is being tested. A clean break and close above this level would confirm buyers’ dominance and could invite momentum trading interest.
🔵 3. Entry, Targets & Stop-Loss Plan:
✅ Entry:
Entry is ideal from the current price region near 3,313 (or on minor retracement, maintaining RR).
🎯 Take Profit Zones:
TP1 (~3,336): This is just above the 50% level and near the previous swing high. Partial take-profit here is wise in case price consolidates.
TP2 (~3,360): Located at the upper resistance zone, marking the potential target if bullish momentum continues.
❌ Stop-Loss:
SL: 3,287.891 — placed below the recent higher low and below the demand zone. This protects the trade from deeper pullbacks or breakdowns below structural support.
📉 4. Risk Management & Trade Psychology:
Maintain a Risk-Reward Ratio (RRR) of at least 1:2 to ensure profitable expectancy.
Avoid over-leveraging, as we are trading near a key resistance zone (50% area).
Watch for volume confirmation or strong bullish candles before fully committing to the trade.
Use a trailing stop once TP1 is hit to secure profits toward TP2.
⚠️ 5. Key Considerations Before Execution:
Monitor any macroeconomic events (e.g., Fed announcements, CPI/PPI, NFP) that may impact gold volatility.
Check DXY (Dollar Index) — if the dollar weakens, gold will likely strengthen further.
Volume behavior around the 50% zone will indicate breakout vs rejection.
🧠 Summary for Minds Section:
Gold shows a clear higher-low structure supported by trendline and demand transfer.
Buyers absorbed supply; now building momentum toward upper resistance zones.
Entry near 3,313, SL under 3,288, TP1 ~3,336, TP2 ~3,360.
Trend remains bullish unless trendline and demand zone are broken.
💡 Educational Takeaway: Watch for demand/supply shifts and trendline confirmations. This setup is a textbook example of structural continuation supported by market psychology and price action zones.

Flexible strategies lead to the best response.📍News:
The continued escalation of the war in the Middle East has increased risk aversion in the gold market.
At the same time, the Russian-Ukrainian negotiations broke down, and Russia launched the largest attack since 2022. Under the double attack, the market's risk aversion is full.
📊Gold technical analysis:
Today's gold price showed a violent fluctuation pattern. During the Asian session, the gold price quickly broke through the 3345 regional resistance and then fell back quickly, indicating that the short-term top pressure was significant. Subsequently, the market fluctuated repeatedly in the 3345-3320 high range and the 3320-3280 low range. After testing the 3350 high point in the Asian session, it retreated sharply, releasing a staged peak signal, indicating that the previous increase has entered the correction and callback stage, but the overall trend is still dominated by wide fluctuations.
Market sentiment reversed, and the price slowly fell and then was pulled up by the positive line. The game between long and short positions was fierce. Although the short position once dominated, the long position counterattacked strongly, and it is expected that it may hit the resistance near 3320 again. The current market has not formed a unilateral trend. The operation is still to deal with the idea of shocks, and maintain the idea of high-altitude and low-multiple. The strong resistance above is at 3350, and the key support below is 3280-3275. The probability of breaking down in the short term is low.
🎯Operational suggestions: Go long on gold when it falls back to around 3280-3275, look at 3300 and 3320, and go short if the rebound pressure of 3320 is not broken.
XAUUSD Market OutlookMy current bias on XAUUSD remains bullish, as we are targeting the lower high (LH) around the 3,438 level. However, the market is currently in a pullback phase within the LH & LL. Price has entered an OTA level within a Daily Fair Value Gap (FVG), ranging between 3,370 and 3,333. This presents a potential opportunity for short setups as we move towards the 3,251 level.
On the 4-hour timeframe, there's a valid FVG Breaker near our Fibonacci-based OTA level, aligning closely with the 3,251 support zone. This is a key area to watch for bullish confirmations. Any long positions should ideally be considered from this zone.
Important Note:
When trading gold, patience and discipline are essential. Only act on clear, confirmed setups that align with your strategy. Quality over quantity always wins in the long run.
Xauusd Parallel Channel AheadTrend: The asset is in a clear short-term uptrend, staying within a rising channel.
Support Zone: Price is currently testing the lower channel support, a common place for bullish reversals if the channel remains intact.
Resistance Zone: There is a horizontal resistance area marked in gray around the $3,340–$3,360 range, which aligns with prior price reactions.
Potential Setup: If the price respects the trendline, a long position with a target near the upper channel line (around $3,370–$3,400) could be considered. A stop loss might be placed just below the channel to manage risk.
Gold hits a critical area, bulls and bears face a choice againYesterday, the market closed positively, and the market continued to rise for three consecutive days. In the short term, this wave of rise will reach the trend resistance line of 3500-3438 with great probability. We will continue to pay attention to the important pressure points of 3370-80. Due to the slow rise of yesterday, there was another wave of continuous rise this morning. The accumulated top divergence finally ushered in a downward correction. The number of such continuous divergences cannot be predicted, and sometimes it may even be forcibly reversed, but what is coming will come in the end. This is a good thing, because only after the correction can we climb higher. Of course, the bad thing is that a wave of decline in the European session will inevitably wash out a lot of bullishness, which is inevitable, because the direction of adherence is all the way up. But tonight, there is a high probability that it will bottom out and rise, because after the middle track breaks through, it will become a certain support, or pierce, but the closing should still be above, so there is a certain support in the range of 3260-3253, and there will not be too much room to go down for the time being.
Seize the opportunity in the gold marketGold fell after reaching a high point during the day, reaching a high of 3345 before going out of the big drop space, and the evening star appeared in the 4H cycle. Combined with the correction of the top divergence of the indicator, the short-term will enter the adjustment stage. Pay attention to the middle track support around 3280-75 in the future market. If it does not break, you can consider going long. Pay attention to the upper pressure of 3320 and 3335. Keep the idea of shock in operation!
Operation suggestion: Go long on gold around 3280-3275, and look at 3300 and 3320. Go short if the rebound pressure of 3320 is not broken.
Gold 100% Profit SignalGold hit the highest point of 3345 today and started to fall back. We also directly shorted at 3341, and successfully reached the target of 3310-15. Friends who follow my articles and real traders can see that the short-term decline of gold does not change the bullish trend. Gold rose by about 100 US dollars after breaking through the box shock, so it is normal to fall back a little. The key to gold in the US market is still the support of 3295-3300. If gold continues to test the support of 3300 and the rebound is weak, then the difficulty of gold rising in the US market will increase, and gold may have to consider high altitude. For now, the advantage of gold bulls still exists
Judging from the 4-hour market trend, the short-term support below is around 3275-3280, with a focus on the 3253-60 support. The short-term bullish strong dividing line is 3253. If the daily level stabilizes at this position, the bullish rhythm of pulling back to lows and buying on the trend will remain unchanged.
Gold operation strategy:
1. Go long when gold falls back to 3290-3295, add more when it falls back to 3275-80, stop loss at 3269, target at 3316-3320, break to 3340-45;
2. If gold rebounds to 3340-45 but does not break, go short with a light position, stop loss at 3353, target at 3300-3306
The latest gold operation strategyFrom a technical perspective, gold has been strong recently. Spot gold closed at $3,289.54 per ounce on Tuesday, and further broke through $3,300 in early trading on Wednesday, reaching a high of $3,304.06, a new high in more than a week. In the short term, gold prices need to break through the key resistance level of $3,370 to open up further upside space; $3,150 has formed a solid support below. If there are new variables in the geopolitical situation or economic data, gold prices may even challenge the $3,400 mark. Based on the current trend, the trading idea on Wednesday is clear: wait for the price to fall back and continue to intervene in long orders around 3,300, and maintain a bullish strategy.
Gold is recommended to go long in the 3300-3305 area, stop loss at 3292, target at 3315-3330
Gold surges and then falls back to repair the divergenceMainly due to the tense global geopolitical situation and the weak performance of the US dollar, the attractiveness of gold as a safe-haven asset has been strengthened, and the gold price has risen driven by safe-haven buying. According to CNN reports, the United States and Iran are negotiating on the uranium enrichment plan, and Israel may be ready to attack Iran's uranium enrichment plant, which has rapidly heated up the market's risk aversion sentiment; the US sovereign rating has been downgraded to AA1, and the dollar hegemony may loosen. At the same time, Trump's tax reform bill may lead to a significant increase in the fiscal deficit in the near future. Concerns about the US fiscal situation also provide support for gold prices. On the daily chart, gold rebounded continuously, setting a new high for the week, but the gold price rose and fell during the day, and it is necessary to pay attention to the risk of short-term correction. For the support below gold, pay attention to the low point of $3285, which is the middle track position of the daily Bollinger band and the main pressure position after the gold rose on Tuesday. The second is the gold rise and breakthrough position of $3250 on Tuesday; for the pressure above gold, pay attention to the high point of gold on Wednesday at $3325, which is the upper track position of the monthly Bollinger band, and the second is the high point of gold on the day at $3345. The increase this week should not be so large, there should be short pressure. But the bullish sentiment is particularly optimistic at present. The 4-hour and 1-hour Bollinger Bands are both running upward, and the moving average is in a bullish arrangement; the daily line has risen strongly for 4 consecutive days. It should be noted that there will be a lot of short pressure near 3350, and if you want to continue to move forward, you must stabilize the 3350 mark.
Is gold going up or down?Gold is showing the characteristics of a fluctuating upward trend. In terms of support, first pay attention to the vicinity of 3290, which is the low point touched by the gold price in the early stage of yesterday. Secondly, pay attention to the support near 3270, which is the current corresponding support position of the rising channel formed by connecting high and low points since the gold started to rise at 3120. As for the upper resistance near 3350-3370, it is the area that needs to be paid attention to at present. From a technical point of view, the next wave of rise may go to the daily Bollinger upper rail suppression point near 3400, so there is still good room for rise. The technical points of the unilateral rise in the H4 cycle are quite obvious. The Bollinger opening and the moving average system diverge upwards. The upward momentum is sufficient. The upward trend does not guess the top. The support point of the decline is on the moving average support. The expected support point is 3305. In principle, a trend long order is made at this point. It is believed that as long as the 3290 position is maintained, it is still bullish. The long defense position is the 3250 mark. This position is the key watershed for the pull-up and retracement. The key point of the rise is 3350. Here we see whether there can be an effective short-term decline. Gold rose directly in the morning. It is recommended not to chase the long in the Asian and European sessions, but to go long after the decline. Pay attention to the gains and losses of the resistance of 3350-3370 during the day.

Bulls push price to 3360, prepare for PMI⭐️GOLDEN INFORMATION:
Gold prices climbed over 0.50% on renewed safe-haven demand, holding firm above the $3,300 threshold as investor anxiety grows ahead of the U.S. tax bill vote and mounting geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. At the time of writing, XAU/USD trades around $3,317, rebounding from an intraday low of $3,285.
Sentiment remains fragile, with U.S. equity markets slipping into negative territory and Treasury yields ticking higher. All eyes are on the impending vote on President Trump’s tax reform proposal, which the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates could inflate the national debt by approximately $3.8 trillion. Uncertainty around the fiscal outlook continues to fuel demand for gold as a defensive asset.

5/22 Gold Trading SignalsGood afternoon everyone!
Yesterday's trading session was a bit bumpy, but in the end, we achieved considerable profits.
Today, gold rose to around 3346 and then began to pull back. It is now approaching the 3300 support level.
🔍 From a technical perspective, the candlestick structure and several indicators suggest that bears may still attempt further downside:
Primary support area: 3288–3276 — if this holds, a rebound is expected, with resistance around 3309–3316.
Secondary support area: 3263–3248 — if it breaks lower, watch for a short-term bounce around 3276-3282.
📰 On the news front, Initial Jobless Claims and PMI data will be released today. These could trigger short-term volatility.
📌 Trading strategy for today includes two key scenarios:
If the data is bearish for the dollar and gold drops to 3253, look for buy opportunities.
If the data is bullish and gold rises to 3358, it's a good spot to sell into strength.

Gold XAUUSD Intraday Move 21.05.2025Gold is currently trading within a well-respected ascending channel, approaching a significant resistance zone around 3315–3320, where previous supply caused a sharp sell-off. This resistance zone has been tested again and shows signs of rejection with consolidation and wicks to the upside.
If price fails to break above this resistance, we may see a corrective drop toward the 3285–3290 zone, which aligns with:
The channel midline
Previous minor structure support
A potential bullish order block/demand zone
This level present a high-probability buy opportunity within the bullish structure.
Preferred Scenario:
Wait for a retracement to 3285–3290 (buy zone)
If bullish price action forms (e.g., bullish engulfing, rejection wicks), enter long position
Trading Signal – Buy Setup
Buy Limit: 3287
Stop Loss: 3275 (below demand and channel)
TP1: 3315
TP2: 3335 (channel top)
Risk/Reward: ~1:2+
Alternative Bearish Scenario:
If price breaks below 3280 with momentum and closes below the ascending channel, avoid buying and reassess for a possible bearish trend shift.
The unilateral offensive is fierce: the bulls have clear goalsGold is performing strongly sideways. We are in the same rhythm as yesterday and continue to maintain bullishness. Gold broke through the key resistance of 3280 on Tuesday and then rose strongly. It is currently above the area near 3330. The technical side shows that the bullish trend continues. The next target may point to the high of 3400. After rising continuously on Monday and Tuesday, it slightly adjusted back to around 3285 on Wednesday and stabilized before rising again. The daily line closed positive and stood firmly on the middle track. The Bollinger band opened upward, and the upper track pressure was at 3400, suggesting that the medium-term upward space is open. The Bollinger band opened significantly, the moving average was arranged in a bullish pattern, and the upward momentum was strong. Short-term support focuses on the moving average at 3315. If the correction does not break this position, the trend long order can follow up. If the key resistance of 3350 is effectively broken, it will further open up the upward space.
Gold operation suggestions: continue to go long after stepping back to 3320-3315, with a target of 3350. If it rises to around 3350 without breaking, you can arrange short-term short orders, with a target of 3330.
How to arrange after gold falls into consolidation🗞News side:
1. US officials said Trump's statement was related to the Golden Dome Project, which may affect the flow of funds
2. The tension in the Middle East has intensified, and the risk aversion sentiment has increased, which is good for gold
3. Although the withdrawal of Indian and Pakistani troops has eased the regional situation, geopolitical risks still exist
4. Trump mentioned the tax bill, which affected economic expectations and affected gold investment sentiment to a certain extent.
📈Technical aspects:
At present, gold is in consolidation, and the upward trend is slightly stagnant. From the hourly chart, there are signs of downward correction after the upward test of 3320. In the short term, the upper 3320 line has a certain suppression, so gold may test the support again and then rise after stabilizing. Then the first support below is the 3292 line, followed by the 3285 line. If it falls below, it may test the two key support points of 3273 and 3265. The current trend is not clear. In the future trading, we will wait patiently for the gold price to stabilize before entering the market.
If you agree with this view, or have a better idea, please leave a message in the comment area. I look forward to hearing different voices.

Will spot gold prices continue to rise?Spot gold prices extended their upward trend ahead of the U.S. market open, briefly touching the $3,320 level intraday. According to foreign media reports, U.S. House Speaker Johnson stated that Republicans have reached an agreement to raise the state and local tax (SALT) deduction to $40,000, resolving one of the final issues impeding Trump's economic bill. Following the release of the April trade statement, investors' "unconventional shift" away from traditional safe havens like the U.S. dollar and Treasury bonds may signal a "fundamental institutional change," increasing the risk of "broad-based shifts in global capital flows" that "could have far-reaching implications for the global financial system."
After opening higher today, gold traded within a volatile range. Following a second retracement near $3,290, gold is again likely to test upward resistance. Overall, gold remains in a bullish channel, and barring a break below key support, the probability of continued upside remains high. For today's trading, consider prioritizing long positions on pullbacks as the primary strategy, with short positions at highs as a secondary approach. Monitor resistance at the $3,325-$3,350 level and support at the $3,290-$3,280 level.
