Repeated Rejections at Resistance — Is Gold Deeper Drop?Gold is trading inside a broader corrective range after a prior bullish impulse, with price repeatedly failing to break and hold above a well-defined higher-timeframe resistance zone. Multiple rejections from this area clearly show that upside momentum is being absorbed, not expanded.
While the larger structure has not fully flipped bearish yet, the current price action reflects distribution near the highs, not accumulation. Buyers are struggling to generate follow-through, and each push into resistance is met with increasing selling pressure.
The resistance zone around the 4,48x–4,50x area has been tested several times, with clear rejection wicks and weak closes a classic sign of supply dominance. At the same time, the EMA 200 is flattening below price, indicating a loss of bullish momentum rather than trend acceleration.
Volume behavior further supports this view: recent upside attempts are occurring on declining volume, suggesting the move higher lacks participation and strength. This divergence often precedes either a deeper pullback or a full corrective leg.
Resistance: 4,480 – 4,510 (major supply / rejection zone)
Support:
4,420 – 4,430 (intermediate reaction level)
4,350 (major downside support / correction target)
EMA / Dynamic Level: EMA 200 around 4,425 (loss of momentum / balance level)
➡️ Primary Scenario (Bearish Continuation):
Failure to break and accept above the resistance zone leads to another rejection. A move back below the 4,420–4,430 level would confirm distribution and open the path toward the 4,350 support zone, where a broader corrective leg is likely to unfold.
⚠️ Risk Scenario (Bullish Extension):
If price manages a clean breakout and acceptance above the 4,510 resistance with expanding volume, the distribution thesis would be invalidated. In that case, gold could transition into renewed bullish continuation rather than correction.
OKLO: The "AI Energy" Play – Falling Wedge Breakout Confirmed1. Fundamental Thesis: The AI Power Crunch
Macro Driver: Hyperscalers (Google, Microsoft, OpenAI) are facing a massive energy cliff. AI data centers require 24/7 baseload power that wind/solar cannot provide. Nuclear SMRs (Small Modular Reactors) are the only viable zero-carbon solution.
The "Altman Premium": Backed by Sam Altman, OKLO benefits from a unique "moat" of access to Silicon Valley's biggest energy customers.
Financials: While still pre-revenue (commercialization ~2027), the company holds ~$1B in cash (post-raise), providing a 7-year runway to weather the regulatory phase. The "Build, Own, Operate" model promises recurring utility-like revenue at tech-like margins.
2. Technical Analysis: Classic Reversal
Pattern: The stock has broken out of a multi-month Falling Wedge consolidation. This pattern often signals the end of a correction and the start of a new impulse leg.
Momentum:
MACD: Bullish crossover confirmed on the daily timeframe.
Volume: Buying volume is returning as price reclaims the key psychological zones.
Squeeze: Momentum indicators are shifting from bearish compression to expansion.
Price Action: We have successfully reclaimed the $80–$90 support zone. The path of least resistance is now higher.
🎯 Trade Setup:
Current Price: ~$97.60
✅ Signal: Breakout verified. Trade bleiben (Stay Long).
Invalidation (Stop Loss): Close below $78.00 (re-entering the wedge).
🚀 Targets:
$135.00 (0.618 Fib Retracement & Psychological resistance)
$180.00+ (Retest of All-Time Highs / Blue Sky Breakout)
Beware of Trump's tariffs and NFP.The main uptrend remains stable. The price structure continues to form higher lows within the medium-term uptrend channel. The current correction is technical after a prolonged uptrend and has not weakened the trend structure.
In terms of price, gold is fluctuating above the confluence support zone around $4,380 – $4,280/ounce (the lower edge of the price channel and key Fibonacci levels). This is a crucial area determining the short-term trend. The fact that the price is holding above this zone indicates that fundamental buying pressure is still present, and there are no clear signs of distribution.
Above, the $4,540 – $4,580 range is acting as near-term resistance. If the price closes decisively above this area, the market will confirm a breakout from the current consolidation phase and open a new uptrend, with the next target towards $4,700 – $4,750, and further towards the $4,900 – $5,000 range along the medium-term price channel.
Conditions for a new uptrend to form:
– Price holds firm above the support zone of $4,380 – $4,280.
– A candlestick closes above the resistance zone of $4,540 – $4,580 with improved trading volume.
– Momentum (RSI) remains above the neutral level, avoiding a bearish divergence.
Downward Correction Risk:
The main risk lies in the scenario of breaking below the $4,280 level. In that case, the "higher highs - higher lows" structure would weaken, and the price could slide to deeper support zones around $4,200-$4,130, or even retest the technical lows near $4,000-$3,900. This would be a trend-rebalancing correction, not simply a short-term technical correction.
The upward trend in gold has not been broken and is currently in a consolidation phase. The 4,540-4,580 range is the "gateway" to the next upward cycle; while 4,280 is the boundary between a technical correction and trend weakening. The most appropriate strategy at present remains following the trend, buying on corrections and selling when approaching resistance, maintaining discipline with the identified risk levels.

GOLD - Correction and retest of support on a bullish trend FX:XAUUSD is forming a correction from the resistance level of 4500 and reaching a local low of 4415. Against the backdrop of DXY growth, the correction may continue. The market is awaiting economic news...
Mixed US data: JOLTS job openings fell to 7.146 million. ADP employment rose by 41,000. The ISM services index rose to 54.4, which is higher than expected.
Expectations for two Fed rate cuts in 2026 remain (≈61 bps). The fundamental backdrop is mixed, with additional confirming data needed.
Geopolitics supports demand: the US has confirmed negotiations on the acquisition of Greenland. China has imposed a ban on the export of dual-use goods to Japan. The focus is shifting to Friday's US employment report (NFP).
The correction in gold appears to be temporary amid continuing expectations of Fed policy easing and geopolitical tensions. The NFP report will be the decisive factor in determining the direction — weak data could trigger a new round of growth.
Resistance levels: 4442, 4475, 4497
Support levels: 4427, 4400
As part of the correction, gold may test the support zone of 4425-4400. Overall, the trend is bullish, and the market correction may be temporary. A false breakdown and the bulls holding the price above key zones could trigger growth towards the flat resistance.
Best regards, R. Linda!

GOLD ANALYSIS 01/09/20261. Fundamental Analysis:
a) Economy:
• USD: The USD is showing a mild recovery after the previous decline, mainly driven by technical correction and the market waiting for early-year data. There is still no strong catalyst to reverse the broader USD trend.
• U.S. Stock Market: Trading remains choppy with no clear direction. Capital flows are cautious, not strongly “risk-on.”
• FED: The FED maintains a cautious stance and has not signaled further tightening. Medium–long-term expectations still lean toward rate cuts → supportive for gold.
• TRUMP: No new policy actions with direct market impact. U.S. political factors are temporarily neutral.
b) Politics:
• Global geopolitical risks remain present. No major escalation, but sufficient to sustain defensive demand for gold.
c) Market Sentiment:
• Slight risk-off sentiment. Investors are not chasing prices (no FOMO), preferring to wait for pullbacks to buy → gold holds its value well despite USD recovery.
=> Conclusion: Sideways with an upward bias.
2. Technical Analysis (M15):
• Short-term trend: UPTREND
• Price is trading above EMA, with a clear Higher High – Higher Low structure.
• Current zone ~ 4475–4480 is a technical correction area after a strong rally.
=> Price is correcting within an uptrend, not a reversal.
RESISTANCE: 4,480 – 4,500 – 4,519
SUPPORT: 4,450 – 4,427 – 4,412
3. Previous Session (8/1/26):
• Gold corrected first, then rallied strongly from the 4412 low up to 4480.
• Strong bullish momentum with clear volume during the rally.
• Late-session mild pullback → healthy correction, no distribution signals.

Crude Oil – Sell around 58.50, with a target of 56.00-55.00Crude Oil Market Analysis:
Recent crude oil buying has been largely ineffective. Despite support from fundamentals and data, there has been little upward movement, only small fluctuations. Sell crude oil at 58.50 today. The chart pattern indicates short-term consolidation, with resistance around 60.00. A break above 62 might open new buying opportunities; otherwise, the outlook remains bearish.
Fundamental Analysis:
The previous ADP employment data has reassured the market, and expectations for the non-farm payrolls report have largely been priced in.
Trading Recommendation:
Crude Oil – Sell around 58.50, with a target of 56.00-55.00.
XAUUSD (DAILY T~F)Looking at the daily time-frame, we can see we have been unable to continue the bullish momentum. This is due to the sell zone at 4490's
According to candle formation, theres a visible path that leads gold back 4500 and above.
We could see gold filling up the bullish liquidity on the weekly timeframe
Further breakdowns on the lower timeframe would be given as the market gains momentum

Can geopolitics rescue oil from five-year lows?At some point this year there could be a strong opportunity to buy crude oil, as prices near USD 55 per barrel are potentially unsustainable.
WTI crude oil futures rose more than 3.5% on Thursday to trade above USD 57.9 per barrel, rebounding from a two-day slide. The move, however, was not enough to recover the losses earlier in the week, and prices remain close to the five-year low set in December.
Uncertainty around Venezuelan exports resurfaced after Washington announced plans to maintain indefinite control over the country’s crude sales.
Meanwhile, in Iran, protests have been reported in Tehran and other cities as inflation rises and the currency weakens, adding another layer of geopolitical risk for oil. Unlike Venezuela, Iran continues to export roughly 2 million barrels per day and produces between 3.2 and 3.5 million barrels per day, contributing a meaningful volume of global supply.

This is a great place (in my opinion) to buy if looking to speculate.
I entered multiple positions this morning that will benefit if I am correct.
Complex corrections are extremely difficult to get accurate wave counts on, but I feel pretty good about this one overall. We could of course not be finished with the final wave Y down and have a bit more to go before, but we will see!
Let me know what you all think.

Markets are also actively anticipating the release of this week's most important data, namely, the Non-Farm data (NFP). Ahead of this event, the technical picture favors sellers over buyers, but sharply negative NFI data will certainly lead to immediate weakening of the USD.
