Gold Trade Setup Eyes on 15M Demand ZonePrice is coming close to 3338, where we have a 15-Minute Order Block (OB) 📍. This is a fresh demand zone and can give a bullish reaction when price taps into it 🟢.
📌 Plan:
We will wait for price to tap the OB ✅
If we see bullish signs like rejection wicks or bullish candles, we will enter a buy 📈
Our target will be near 3366, just below the bearish FVG 🎯

Retracement for cooldownBased on the spike leaving some long wick from 1 hour timeframe, there is a possibilities for it to retrace back for cooldown period before going up. My calculations lead to 3335 as a support level.
Sell - Take profit on 3335. Believe me, I am from the broken future. Just kidding.
XAUUSD Trade Setup: Buying Opportunity at 3,322 Support ZoneGold (XAUUSD) is currently testing a critical support zone between 3,322 and 3,323 USD. This area represents a confluence of the previous swing low and the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement level, which is historically known to trigger technical bullish reactions. If a confirming signal appears on the H1 chart, this may offer a favorable short-term buy opportunity.
Trade setup details:
Entry (Buy limit): 3,323 – 3,322 USD
Stop loss: below 3,318 USD
Take profit: 3,331 – 3,340 USD
Risk-to-reward ratio: approximately 2:1
Technical rationale for the trade:
The 3,322 level has acted as a strong support in recent price structure
Aligns with the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement, often seen as the last line of defense in bullish setups
RSI on the lower time frame is nearing oversold, signaling potential bullish momentum
Risk management notes:
If price closes below 3,318 USD, the long idea becomes invalid
Best entries should be supported by price action signals such as pin bar, bullish engulfing, or other reversal candles near support
Conclusion: A buy position in the 3,322 – 3,323 USD zone presents a reasonable strategy as long as the support holds. If bullish reaction occurs, price may revisit the 3,340 resistance area in the short term.
Save this strategy if you find it useful, and stay tuned for more real-time trade ideas and insights.
Sell Idea
Overall Market Analysis
● Market Structure: The chart clearly shows that Gold is in a strong consolidation or
ranging phase. It is not trending up or down but is instead oscillating between a
well-defined resistance "ceiling" and a support "floor".
● Conclusion for Higher Probability: In a ranging market, the highest probability trades
are to sell near resistance or buy near support. Since the current price (~$3339) is in
the upper half of the range and closer to major resistance, a bearish (Sell) plan
currently presents a more immediate and statistically favorable setup than a buy
plan. A buy plan would require waiting for the price to drop significantly.
Hypothetical Trade Plan: Bearish Range Trade
This plan is based on the expectation that the established resistance level will hold and the price
will rotate back down within its range.
1. Thesis / Rationale: The price has repeatedly failed to break and hold above the $3350 -
$3375 zone for over a month. This indicates a strong presence of sellers at this level. The
strategy is to align with these sellers, anticipating another rotation down towards the support
level.
XAUUSD ANALYSISOn gold currently we're analyzing 2H time frame. As we know that current trend was bullish. At this stage, I'm anticipating a retracement towards my Point of Interest (POI), where I’ll be looking for a clear bullish confirmation, ideally through candlestick structure or solid price action. Only upon receiving that confirmation will I consider entering a buy position.
This outlook is based on the higher time frame structure. For now, I'm observing patiently to see how price unfolds. Until the market sweeps the SSL liquidity, I will remain on the sidelines no entries until that key liquidity level has been taken. Confirmation is key.
Always use stoploss for your trade.
Always use proper money management and proper risk to reward ratio.
#XAUUSD 2H Technical Analysis Expected Move.
XAUUSD WAS GOES TO DOWN TREND "I follow structure, not emotions.
The trend is bearish — I sell strength, not weakness.
My entry is smart, at a lower high or CHoCH retest.
My SL is tight — just above the invalidation point.
My TP is clear — near the next demand or previous low.
I don’t hope. I manage risk and trust my edge."
---
📉 Suggested Setup Based on This Chart:
(Use this only as example — always confirm with your own strategy.)
Entry: Near the most recent CHoCH retest or rejection wick at LH (around 3,360–3,365 zone)
Stop-Loss (SL): Just above the previous LH or supply zone (around 3,375)
Take-Profit (TP): Near next support / previous LL zone (around 3,305 or even 3,248)
Risk-Reward (RR): Target at least 2:5
XAUUSD:Continue to go long
The gold price has just fallen after being pressured by the 3365 level. Currently, there are no obvious signs of a bottoming out. However, the 3340-43 range is the support position from the previous several declines. Here, one can lightly participate in the bullish orders. If going further down, the 3330 level is an important support point. Both of these positions can be utilized to go long.
Then the trading strategy:
BUY@3340-43
TP:3360-65
If the price retraces to the 3330 level, increase the position of the long bet. The goal remains the same. I will keep you informed if there are any changes.

XAUUSD 4Hour TF - July 13th, 2025XAUUSD 7/13/2025
XAUUSD 4 hour Long Idea
Monthly - Bullish
Weekly - Bullish
Daily - Bullish
4hour - Bullish
Gold is looking pretty bullish this week as we saw a significant push above our 3,320.000 resistance zone. Looking to ride that same trend through this next week.
Bullish continuation - After a nice rally last week gold looks primed for another long setup. Ideally, price action goes for the retest of 3,320.000 and forms a higher low. This would confirm bullish structure and we can begin targeting higher toward major levels of resistance.
Bearish Reversal - For us to consider bearish setups we would first need to see a break back below 3,320.000 followed by a confirmed lower high. If this happens we can consider short positions and look to target lower toward major levels of support.

Gold (XAUUSD) – 17 July Analysis | Demand Zone in Play🟢 Gold (XAUUSD) – 17 July Analysis | Demand Zone in Play
Gold continues to follow the bullish structure we’ve been tracking in our recent posts. Yesterday's news-driven price action pushed the market to a new swing high near 3377.600 , confirming strength in higher timeframes. Now, price is currently in a retracement/pullback phase , pulling back toward a key intraday demand zone at 3326–3320 — offering potential opportunity for the next leg upward.
🔍 Where Are We Now?
The market is currently pulling back toward a key M15 demand zone: 3326–3320 . This level also aligns with a higher timeframe order block on the H4, making it a critical confluence area for structure-based traders.
This 3326–3320 zone is crucial because:
→ It’s a fresh M15 demand zone inside a higher timeframe bullish structure
→ It aligns with the H4 OB that previously acted as a launchpad
→ The overall trend remains bullish unless this zone is decisively broken
If the zone holds and we get LTF confirmation (such as M1 internal structure shift + micro-BoS), it may present a high-probability long setup.
⚙️ Structure Summary:
✅ H4: Bullish continuation structure with recent higher high
✅ M15: Pullback within bullish order flow
✅ M1 (for entry): Awaiting ChoCH + BoS as entry trigger inside POI
📌 Trade Setup Plan (upon confirmation):
→ Entry: From 3326–3320 demand zone
→ Stop Loss: 40 pips below entry
→ Take Profit: 120 pips (targeting new HH based on H4 projection)
→ Risk-to-Reward Ratio: 1:3
🧠 Key Trading Insight:
We never predict — we prepare .
We don’t chase price — we position with confirmation .
Discipline means waiting for price to invite us in , not entering just because a level looks attractive.
📈 Summary & Expectations:
➡️ Price is retracing into a structurally significant demand zone
➡️ Market bias remains bullish unless this zone fails
➡️ If the zone holds with valid M1 confirmation, we’ll consider a long setup targeting a new high
➡️ No confirmation = no trade. Patience > prediction.

Gold Price Analysis July 15Continued uptrend after touching the 3345 buy zone
As analyzed at the beginning of the week, gold price has touched the buy zone around 3345 and continues to maintain the bullish wave structure, heading towards the 3400 resistance zone.
Currently, if gold breaks the 3373 mark, the uptrend is likely to be further strengthened. At that time, it is not advisable to trade against the trend, especially when the buyers completely control the market.
However, in case gold falls below the 3343 support zone (the resistance level in yesterday's US session), the current uptrend may be temporarily interrupted. At that time, the market will need to form a new momentum to establish the next trend.
🔑 Important price zones:
Support: 3343 – 3330 – 3313
Resistance: 3373 – 3387 – 3400
📌 Trading strategy:
Hold BUY order at 3345, expected target 3400
Activate SELL order if there is a clear price rejection signal at 3373 or 3387 (with confirmation of selling pressure)
SELL at 3400 if the strong resistance zone reacts clearly
7.14 Gold Analysis7.14 Gold Analysis
I. Market Review and Current Situation:
Last week, the trend of gold showed a bottoming-out and rebounding pattern. Affected by the fluctuation of market sentiment at the beginning of the week, the price of gold once broke through the important psychological barrier of $3,300. However, as the market gradually digested the threat of radical tariff policies proposed by former President Trump (including the imposition of high tariffs on the European Union, Mexico, etc.), the demand for safe-haven re-heated, driving the steady rebound of gold prices. At the end of last Friday, the price of gold reached a high of around $3,368, and finally closed above $3,350 on a weekly basis.
II. Key technical observations:
1. Daily level trend and risk:
The current daily structure still maintains a bullish trend, and there is dense technical support below.
The core support area is in the range of $3,320-3,340, which brings together key moving average systems (such as MA20, MA30, etc.) and the previous trading concentration area, forming an important bullish defense line.
Key warning: Although the trend is bullish, the risk of chasing high is significant. If you chase more above $3350 or even $3360, once the gold price technically retreats to the 3340-3320 area for consolidation, the position will face greater floating loss pressure and psychological test of holding positions.
III. 4-hour level short-term signal:
The gold price failed to effectively stand above $3360 on the 4-hour chart, which is a signal worthy of vigilance, suggesting that the short-term upward momentum may be insufficient.
This signal increases the possibility of gold prices falling back to the lower support again.
The nearest support level clearly points to around $3340. This position is a key node for short-term long and short competition. If it is effectively broken, it may further test the 3320-3330 area.
IV. Core drivers and event outlook:
Tuesday's US CPI data (released on July 15): This is the most critical risk event that dominates the trend of gold prices this week. The market will assess the current state of US inflation based on this, and revise its expectations for the future monetary policy path of the Federal Reserve (especially the timing and magnitude of interest rate cuts) based on this. Any data that exceeds expectations (whether up or down) may trigger sharp fluctuations in gold prices.
Trump's policy trends: His "important statement" on trade (high tariff threats) and the announcement of today's "important statement" on the Russian issue are still important sources of market uncertainty and risk aversion. The escalation of relevant remarks or measures will be good for gold, and vice versa, it may weaken safe-haven demand.
US dollar trend: The US dollar index fluctuated upward last week (recorded its first increase in three weeks). Although it did not effectively break through the 98 mark, its relative strength has put a certain pressure on gold prices, and its trends need to be continuously monitored.
5. Intraday operation strategy:
1. The core idea before the release of CPI: cautious fluctuations and range operations.
It is expected that before the release of the crucial US June CPI data (Tuesday), the probability of gold prices remaining in the range of 3360-3340 US dollars is very high. Market participants tend to wait and see, waiting for data to guide the direction.
2. Specific strategy:
The upper edge of the range (near and above 3360 US dollars): It is not advisable to aggressively chase the rise. It can be considered as a short-term light position test, and the stop loss is strictly set above 3365/3370 US dollars. The target is 3345-3340 US dollars.
The lower edge of the range (near 3340 US dollars): Pay attention to the defensive strength of bulls. If effective support is obtained in this area (such as a stabilization signal), you can consider light position layout of long orders, and set the stop loss below 3335/3330 US dollars. The target is 3350-3360 US dollars.
Breakthrough strategy (low probability but need a plan):
Break above 3365/3370 US dollars: The effectiveness and sustainability need to be confirmed. The aggressive can follow up with a light position, and the target is 3380 US dollars, but it is necessary to be wary of the risk of false breakthroughs before CPI, and the stop loss must be strictly enforced.
Break below 3335/3330 US dollars: It may open the downward space to 3320 or even lower. You can consider shorting with the trend, and the target is 3310-3300 area, and the stop loss must also be strictly enforced.
*Today, the gold market is in a "quiet period" before the release of key data. Although the overall technical trend remains bullish, and there is strong support in the 3320-3340 area below, it is difficult for gold prices to effectively break through last week's high (3368) and open up upward space in the absence of a new strong catalyst (CPI data). At the same time, the failure of the 4-hour chart to stand above 3360 also indicates a short-term correction risk. Therefore, the most likely path during the day is to fluctuate in the range of 3360-3340 US dollars. Traders should remain patient, adopt a strategy of light positions, high selling and low buying within the range, and strict stop loss, focus on avoiding the risk of chasing up and selling down before the release of CPI data, and wait for tomorrow's data to guide a clear direction.
Be cautious in trading and control risks! I wish you a smooth transaction!
