XAUUSD Long: Uptrend Holds as Price Respects Rising Trend LineHello traders! Here’s a clear technical breakdown of XAUUSD (1H) based on the current chart structure. Gold is trading within a well-defined bullish structure after forming a clear pivot low earlier on the chart. From this pivot point, a rising trend line has been established, highlighting consistent buyer participation and a gradual shift in market control toward the upside. This trend line has been respected multiple times, confirming it as a key dynamic support guiding the bullish move. Following the pivot, price advanced and broke above a descending supply line, signaling a structural change from corrective pressure to bullish continuation. This breakout was impulsive, indicating strong demand entering the market. After the breakout, XAUUSD transitioned into a consolidation range, where price moved sideways as buyers and sellers reached temporary equilibrium. This range acted as a continuation structure rather than distribution.
Currently, price eventually broke out of the range to the upside, confirming renewed bullish momentum. After the breakout, gold pulled back and successfully retested the former resistance area, which is now acting as a Demand Zone around 4,700. This retest appears corrective, not impulsive, suggesting healthy price action and continued buyer dominance rather than trend exhaustion. On the upside, the next key level is the Supply Zone near 4,770, where previous selling pressure is expected to reappear. The current structure shows higher highs and higher lows, and price remains firmly above both horizontal demand and the rising trend line, keeping the bullish bias intact.
My scenario: as long as XAUUSD holds above the 4,700 Demand Zone and continues to respect the ascending trend line, the bullish structure remains valid. I expect buyers to defend this area and potentially push price toward the 4,770 Supply Zone (TP1). A clean breakout and acceptance above this level would confirm further bullish continuation. However, a decisive breakdown below the demand zone and trend line would weaken the bullish bias and signal a deeper corrective move. For now, market structure clearly favors buyers. Manage your risk!

GOLD - Aggressive bullish trend. Test of the 4725 zone...FX:XAUUSD continues to update its historical maximum, currently testing the 4725 zone, against the backdrop of escalating geopolitical risks and declining risk appetite...
Fundamental situation
Trump's threats to impose new tariffs on goods from the EU and the union's retaliatory measures have heightened fears of a trade war.
Escalation of the Russia-Ukraine conflict
The economic backdrop is contributing to the decline of the dollar, which in turn is supporting gold.
The key events of the week will be the US PCE inflation data (Thursday) and the revised GDP report for the third quarter.
Gold continues to rise due to geopolitical uncertainty and the weakening of the dollar. Further dynamics will depend on US inflation data — weak figures could strengthen the upward momentum, while strong figures could trigger a correction.
Resistance levels: 4725, 4750
Support levels: 4707, 4700, 4691
Growth has been halted by the psychological resistance zone of 4725. Since the opening of the session, the market has exhausted its intraday potential and may form a correction (profit-taking) and test the key support zones of 4710-4700 before continuing to grow.

XAUUSD (Gold) – 30M Resistance Rejection SetupPrice is respecting the ascending trendline but facing strong supply at the resistance zone, suggesting a possible pullback toward lower support before the next move.
Key Levels:
Resistance: 4880 – 4900
First Support / Target: 4765 – 4785
Major Support / Target: 4680 – 4700
Bullish structure remains valid above the trendline, however rejection at resistance may lead to a short-term retracement. Wait for confirmation and manage risk.
XAUUSD H1 – Bullish Structure Holds After Early-Week GapHello, I’m Louna.
From the H1 perspective, XAUUSD continues to trade cleanly within a well-defined ascending channel, confirming that the broader bullish market structure remains intact. Price is still printing higher highs and higher lows, a clear sign that buyers are firmly in control of the dominant trend.
The early-week bullish gap reinforces this bullish context. Instead of immediately filling the gap, price has held above prior balance, suggesting sustained participation from strong hands. However, with price recently pushing closer to the upper portion of the channel, the market is now slightly extended away from its internal support, increasing the probability of a short-term corrective phase.
In strong gold trends, price rarely moves in a straight line. Corrections are a healthy and necessary process—they allow liquidity to rebalance and provide confirmation that demand beneath the market remains strong rather than speculative.
The primary zone I am monitoring lies between 4,580 and 4,600. This area aligns closely with the midline of the ascending channel and a previous demand zone that has already proven its relevance. Within momentum-driven uptrends, gold often forms a higher high, attracts late buyers, and then retraces to retest structural support before continuing higher.
If price stabilizes within this zone and we see clear bullish reactions—such as strong rejection candles or improving volume behavior—the bullish structure remains healthy, and the market will be well positioned for continuation toward the upper boundary of the channel, with upside targets extending toward 4,750 and potentially 4,800.
As always, confirmation is key. Closely observe price action and volume behavior around this support zone before committing to long positions. Maintain disciplined risk management, follow your trading plan, and avoid chasing price at extended levels.
Wishing you clarity, discipline, and consistent execution in your trading.
New ATH at 96, But Is the Market Done “ATH-ing” for Now?Yesterday, Silver pushed toward 96 and printed what has become almost normal lately: another new all-time high.
As expected, once that level was reached, volatility exploded — and fortunately, I managed to catch a quick counter-trend scalp, banking around 1,100 pips in a short amount of time.
But the real question now is not about yesterday’s spike.
👉 Is Silver done making ATHs for now?
In my opinion: yes. At least temporarily.
🔎 Context: A Huge Move, and the Market Is Starting to Change Behavior
Since the beginning of the year, Silver is up more than 30%.
But more important than the percentage gain is the price behavior since Monday:
- after the weekend gap up
- the very short-term structure shifted into a topping formation
- rallies into 95 and slightly above are consistently being sold
That is typically the first sign that the market is moving from pure momentum mode into distribution / exhaustion mode.
It doesn’t mean the long-term trend is broken.
It simply means the upside is starting to get crowded, and the risk-reward changes completely.
⚠️ Technical Confirmation Level
For me, the correction becomes “real” if we get:
👉 a clean break below 92.70
If that happens, the most logical next move is:
🎯 90 zone — mainly for filling the weekend gap
And if the breakdown accelerates, I wouldn’t be surprised to see:
➡️ 85–86 zone as an extended correction target
Markets rarely move in perfect steps — and when a parabolic run starts to unwind, it can surprise both sides.
📌 Trading Plan (Short-Term Only)
My approach going forward is straightforward:
👉 Sell rallies
✅ as long as 96 remains the ATH / ceiling
This is not a “long-term bearish call”.
This is a short-term tactical trade in a market that may finally be ready to breathe.
P.S. (For Those Who Don’t Understand but Still Comment)
1️⃣ Long term, I’m extremely bullish Silver.
I wrote about it recently and nothing has changed on the macro view.
2️⃣ Yes, this is counter-trend.
That’s the point — it’s a correction trade, not a trend reversal call.
3️⃣ If I take it, it’s short-term only.
No “marriage” with the position.
4️⃣ I know how to take a loss.
And I take it fast when the market proves me wrong.
5️⃣ If targets don’t get hit, I know how to manage exits.
Break-even, small loss, small profit — I’m not here to “hope”.
In markets like this, discipline matters more than prediction. 🚀
APGO - Following Silver’s Footsteps?Markets don’t move in isolation.
They rhyme… especially when capital rotates from the metal to the miners .
Over the past few months, Silver quietly broke out of a long-term accumulation range…
And once it did, price exploded higher with speed and conviction.🚀
Now zoom out on Apollo Silver TSXV:APGO and the structure looks uncomfortably familiar 👀
📊 Technical Analysis
After a brutal markdown phase that lasted more than a decade, APGO spent years building a clear accumulation base , following Silver’s broader long-term path.
That base is now being tested:
• The upper accumulation zone around $5.7 is acting as a key decision level
• Price is transitioning from accumulation into early markup behavior
• The structure mirrors Silver’s breakout phase almost step by step
Just like Silver:
– Long accumulation
– Clean breakout
– Brief consolidation
– Then acceleration
If APGO confirms breakout above the accumulation phase, the technical roadmap opens toward a full markup phase , with much higher levels coming into play.
This is no longer about catching bottoms; it’s about recognizing phase shifts.📉📈
🌍 Bigger Picture - Why Silver, Why Apollo?
Silver isn’t just a precious metal anymore; it’s a strategic industrial input.
Apollo Silver controls one of the largest undeveloped silver resources in the U.S., with over 125M ounces measured & indicated and 57M ounces inferred at the Calico project. 🗻
🥈Silver demand is accelerating across:
AI data centers, solar energy, 5G infrastructure, and defense systems, all while supply remains constrained.
On top of that, Apollo’s exposure to barite and zinc , both classified as critical minerals, adds optionality that most silver juniors simply don’t have.
In a world pushing for U.S. mineral independence, domestic silver assets are no longer optional… they’re strategic.🔎
📌 Bottom Line
Silver already made its move.
APGO looks like it’s next in line.
Structure is shifting.
Accumulation is behind us.
And if history rhymes, this could be the early stages of a much larger markup cycle.

Natural Gas – Trend Shift in Progress?After being bearish bearish for a while, Natural Gas has broken out of the descending red trendline, signaling a clear shift in momentum from bearish to bullish.
What stands out here is how price reacted after the breakout. Instead of selling off again, it held above the recent support zone and started building higher structure.
As long as this new bullish structure holds, the bias remains to the upside, with room for continuation toward higher levels. Any pullbacks that stay above support are, for me, opportunities to watch.
⚠️ Disclaimer: This is not financial advice. Always do your own research and manage risk properly.
📚 Stick to your trading plan regarding entries, risk, and management.

Silver & the $100 MagnetFrom a long-term perspective, Silver remains clearly bullish, holding well above the blue rising trendline.
Zooming in, the short-term structure is just as clean. XAGUSD is trading inside a rising red channel, respecting both its upper and lower bounds with precision.
As long as this red channel continues to hold, my focus stays on trend-following long setups. The natural target remains the upper bound of the channel, which aligns perfectly with the $100 level, a round number that has been acting like a magnet for price.
What do you think? Does Silver tap $100 again before any deeper correction? 🤔

Hellena | GOLD (4H): LONG to 161.8% Fibo 4728 .Colleagues, the price is updating its maximum, and I think we shouldn't stop there.
After re-marking the waves, I realized that it would be more correct to place wave “3” at the 4549 level, since 5 waves fit well into it.
This means that the price is now in wave “5,” which can be quite unpredictable, but if we look at the blue waves, we can assume that there is now a medium-term impulse wave “3,” which means we can apply Fibonacci extension levels and see the 161.8% level as the target.
But I don't want to take such a risk and will set a slightly lower target - in the 4728 area. At the moment, we need to be very careful.

GOLD 4H CHART ROUTE MAP UPDATE & TRADING PLAN FOR THE WEEKHey Everyone,
Please see our 4h chart route map and trading plan for the week ahead.
We are now seeing price play between two weighted levels with a gap above at 4610 and a gap below at 4519. 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.

XAUUSD (Gold) – 4H HTF Resistance ReactionGold remains in a strong higher-timeframe uptrend after making a new high near 4639. Price is currently reacting at a major resistance zone, where a pullback toward nearby support is possible before the next directional move.
Resistance: 4680 – 4700
Support: 4550 – 4600
Major Demand: 4360 – 4400
Overall bias stays bullish, but profit-taking or retracement can occur from resistance. Watch support reaction and EMA structure for continuation confirmation. Always manage risk.
XAUUSD Ascending Channel Holds, Upside Toward $4,950Hello traders! Here’s my technical outlook on XAUUSD (1H) based on the current chart structure. Gold is trading within a well-defined bullish structure, supported by a rising price channel formed after a clear shift in market control from sellers to buyers. Earlier on the chart, price respected the ascending support line, creating higher lows and confirming sustained buying pressure. This gradual advance led to a consolidation phase, where price formed a clear range, reflecting temporary balance before continuation. Following the range, XAUUSD broke out to the upside, confirming trend continuation. This breakout was supported by a clean impulse move and acceptance above the former range high. After the breakout, price successfully retested the Buyer Zone around 4,820, which aligns with the prior resistance turned support and the lower boundary of the bullish channel. This area is acting as a strong demand zone, where buyers are actively defending the structure. Currently, price is moving higher within the ascending channel and approaching a key Resistance Level and Seller Zone near 4,950. This zone represents a major upside objective and a potential area for profit-taking or seller reaction. The bullish momentum remains intact as long as price holds above the Buyer Zone and respects the rising support line. My scenario: as long as XAUUSD stays above the 4,820 Buyer Zone, the bullish structure remains valid. Continued strength could drive price toward the 4,950 resistance level (TP1). A clean breakout and acceptance above this seller zone would open the door for further upside continuation. However, a decisive rejection from resistance could lead to a corrective pullback toward the Buyer Zone. A breakdown below support would weaken the bullish bias and signal a deeper correction. For now, the market structure favors buyers while price remains supported within the ascending channel. Please share this idea with your friends and click Boost 🚀
XAUUSD (Gold) Short Setup | Trendline RejectionGold has reached a strong rising trendline resistance after an aggressive bullish move. Price is showing signs of exhaustion near the top, forming a potential pullback structure.
🔴 Sell Zone: Near trendline resistance
🎯 Take Profit: 4802 area (previous demand zone)
🛑 Stop Loss: Above recent high / resistance
📊 Timeframe: 1H
This setup follows trendline rejection + pullback continuation, offering a clean risk-to-reward opportunity. Wait for confirmation before entry and manage risk properly.

Global Gold Prices Break Above $4,800Global gold prices have surged decisively above the $4,800 level, establishing a new high-price zone as capital continues to flow into safe-haven assets. The rally is being fueled by persistent geopolitical risks, rising trade tensions, and a broadly defensive global market sentiment.
On the news front, hawkish rhetoric surrounding U.S. trade and foreign policy, along with growing concerns over escalating tensions among major economies, has reinforced demand for gold. At the same time, expectations that the Federal Reserve will remain cautious and avoid aggressive easing are helping keep investor focus on precious metals.
From a technical perspective, gold remains in a strong bullish trend. Following a powerful breakout, price is now consolidating above the 4,760–4,780 Fair Value Gap (FVG), signaling that buyers continue to control the market. As long as this zone holds, further upside toward higher price levels remains a highly plausible scenario.
Primary trend: BULLISH
Preferred approach: buy pullbacks, avoid chasing price
XAUUSD (GOLD) – 4-Hour Timeframe Tradertilki AnalysisGuys,
I have prepared a XAUUSD-Gold analysis for you on the 4-hour timeframe.
My friends, the levels of 4657.0 and 4599.0 are the best buy entry points.
When price reaches these levels, I will definitely open a buy position and aim for the following targets:
My targets:
1st Target: 4690.0
2nd Target: 4730.0
3rd Target: 4790.0
My friends, since the U.S. president has recently imposed tariffs on Europe, there is currently strong buying volume in XAUUSD-Gold. From a fundamental perspective, this is the biggest reason for gold’s upward movement.
NOTE – Since the U.S. president has not lifted these tariffs regarding Greenland and has opened a trade war against European countries, XAUUSD-Gold may rise even from these levels and reach my 3 targets.
My friends, I share these analyses thanks to each like I receive from you. Your likes increase my motivation and encourage me to support you in this way.🙏
Thank you to all my friends who support me with their likes.❤️
GOLD - Consolidation after the rally. Target 5000FX:XAUUSD continues to hit new record highs (the latest being 4888) amid escalating geopolitical tensions, global risk aversion, and a falling dollar...
Fundamental drivers:
Trump's pressure on the Fed and uncertainty over the appointment of a new chair are undermining confidence in US monetary policy.
Trade threats are increasing the risks of escalating conflict with the EU.
Today, PCE inflation data (October-November) and US GDP for the third quarter will be released.
Gold maintains its upward momentum thanks to political uncertainty and pressure on the Fed. Short-term corrections are possible after the data release, but the trend will remain bullish until geopolitical risks subside.
Resistance levels: 4877, 4888, 4900
Support levels: 4845, 4834, 4816
Gold has strengthened by 2.6% since the opening of the session and, having exhausted its intraday ATR, may move to local consolidation or retest key support zones before growth: 4845, 4834, 4816. The medium-term growth potential remains intact. The market is heading towards 5000...
Best regards, R. Linda!
XAUUSD: Holds Key Support - Buyers Aim for $4,720 ResistanceHello everyone, here is my breakdown of the current XAUUSD setup.
Market Analysis
XAUUSD is trading within a broader bullish market structure, supported by a rising trend line that has guided price action from the recent swing lows. Earlier in the move, gold advanced inside a well-defined upward channel, confirming strong buyer control with consistent higher highs and higher lows. This bullish leg eventually led to a breakout attempt near the upper boundary of the channel, after which price experienced a sharp corrective move and transitioned into a consolidation phase. Following the correction, XAUUSD formed a range, where price moved sideways as buyers and sellers reached temporary equilibrium. This range acted as an accumulation zone before the next directional move. Price eventually broke out of the range to the upside, signaling renewed bullish momentum. However, shortly after the breakout, a fake breakout occurred on the downside, where price briefly dipped below support but was quickly reclaimed by buyers, reinforcing demand strength.
Currently, price is holding above a clearly defined Support Zone around 4,650, which aligns with the former range high and a key structural level. This area is now acting as demand after the successful breakout and retest. On the upside, XAUUSD is approaching a major Resistance Zone near 4,720, where selling pressure has previously emerged. The recent price action shows controlled consolidation above support, suggesting continuation rather than distribution.
My Scenario & Strategy
My primary scenario remains bullish as long as XAUUSD holds above the 4,650 Support Zone and continues to respect the rising trend line. In this case, I expect buyers to remain in control and attempt another push toward the 4,720 Resistance Zone (TP1). A clean breakout and acceptance above this resistance would confirm bullish continuation and open the door for further upside expansion.
However, a strong rejection from resistance followed by a decisive breakdown below the 4,650 support would weaken the bullish bias and signal a deeper corrective move. Until that happens, the overall structure favors buyers, and pullbacks into support are viewed as potential continuation opportunities.
That’s the setup I’m tracking. Thank you for your attention, and always manage your risk.

We are seeing price play between two weighted levels with a gap above at 4598 and a gap below at 4539, as support. 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.
