GOLD → Price is susceptible to manipulation. Correction?FX:XAUUSD amid high risks of tariff wars and high inflation reaches a new ATH and trend resistance, but due to manipulation by politicians there is a possibility of a small correction. Gold price is consolidating above $2,800 after an all-time high of $2,831, awaiting US employment data and Fed speeches. Volatility increased amid manipulations about Trump's tariff policy: first they set tariffs, then a few hours later they cancel them. In a word, “politicians”. Gold is going into correction after a false breakout of resistance of the ascending channel and on the news about temporary suspension of tariff increase by the USA. Overall gold is holding its ground as the Fed remains cautious on rate cuts. Resistance levels: 2817, 2830 Support levels: 2811, 2801, 2790 If the price breaks 2811 and consolidates below this area, we should expect a correction to 2800 - 2790 in the short term, there is no hint of a trend change, growth may continue from the key support areas.

ACTUSDT → Attempting to change the trend BINANCE:ACTUSDT is trying to move into the realization phase after breaking through the resistance of the bearish wedge, a pattern capable of changing trends After a prolonged downtrend, the coin has found a bottom in the 0.1500 area and yesterday's bitcoin recovery was a bullish driver for ACT. The market is pretty much confirmed manipulation by the US government and will have to come to terms with that. Technically, the focus is on 0.21400 support. The key pattern to wait for is a false break of the support followed by a consolidation above the level and the start of an upside move. This would be a characteristic bullish maneuver that could lead to local strengthening. Resistance levels: 0.26800, 0.35120 Support levels: 0.21420, 0.1500 For a trend change, the coin needs not only to consolidate above the support, but also to overcome the resistance at 0.26800. The altcoin market is weak, so there should be strong confirmations to open positions in one direction or another. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → The new ATH is not the limit. What are the new targets?FX:XAUUSD updates ATH to 2800 and at the same time bulls are consolidating above the previously broken high, trying to form a base for continued gains Gold updates all time high to $2800, amid a weaker US dollar and the threat of high tariffs from Trump, who again warned of possible 100% duties against BRICS countries, as well as a 25% tax on imports from Canada and Mexico, which boosted demand for protective assets. Investors are waiting for the US PCE Core Price Index data to gauge the Fed's next steps. Technically, now the focus is on 2 levels: 2798.5, which is a trigger for the continuation of growth and support at 2785, behind which there is a huge pool of liquidity. Gold needs to overcome 2798.5 to continue rising, but before that a retest of the support may be formed due to the liquidity under the level. Resistance levels: 2798.5, 2800, 2810-15 Support levels: 2790, 2785, 0.5 fibo In general, gold has a bullish price movement. There are no hints of a trend breakdown, so the chance for the continuation of the growth is quite high and it can happen either when the trigger is broken or after a small consolidation or correction before the news. Emphasis on the previously mentioned levels and news. Regards R. Linda!

SOL Trade Setups: Key Levels to Watch for Big Moves!Solana has been on an impressive run, hitting a new all-time high (ATH) at $295. The previous ATH from 2021 at $260, along with the recent swing high of $264.63 (December 2024), are now acting as key resistance levels. Bulls are struggling to break above the $260 range and we’re seeing some bearish control as SOL trades below the weekly open, never a great sign for upward momentum. Short Trade Setup It’s looking like SOL could be in an ABC pattern, working on wave C. Here’s a potential short trade setup: Entry: Around $260 if price revisits that zone. Stop Loss: Above $270. Take Profit: $220, where strong support lies. R:R Ratio: About 3:1. If you’re already short, congrats! If not, $260 could be your next chance to jump in. Support Zone and Long Setup There’s plenty of support stacking up between $220 and $217, making it a great zone to consider for a long position: Point of Control (POC): At $218.50, from the November-January range Fib Levels: The 0.786 trend-based Fib extension is at $220.23 The 0.618 retracement (low of $169 to high of $295) is at $217.27 EMAs: The 200 and 233 EMAs on the 4H chart line up nicely with the $217 level Channel Support: The median line from $264 to $169 also lands around $217 Long Setup Plan Entry: Ladder longs between $220 and $217 Stop Loss: Below $217, maybe around $214 Take Profit 1: $239 for a mid-range bounce Take Profit 2: Move your SL to entry and let the rest ride for bigger gains Patience is Key Whether you’re waiting for $260 to short or $220 to long, the setups are there, now it’s about watching the levels and being patient. Both trades offer solid risk-to-reward ratios, so no need to rush in. Stay ready and let’s see how this plays out!

BITCOIN → New targets! What will happen to ALTCOINS ?BINANCE:BTCUSD went into consolidation after a failed attempt to break through the 108K resistance. Nothing terrible happened, the weekly structure is quite strong, and the market needs to build up its potential. What is happening and what to expect in the future? In the week ahead, the focus is on the US rate meeting, GDP and PCE. If the US macroeconomic data disappoints, it could lead to a lower dollar and more interest in BTC. As for Trump, he may give a good driver to the market if he pushes for the inclusion of BTC in the federal reserve, which is what the crypto trading community is waiting for now. But, it should be realized that tight US monetary policy and possible further rate hikes create pressure on high-risk assets, including bitcoin. In a sideways moving environment, BTC dominance remains stable, around 50-60%. Altcoins are more likely to perform weakly in such an environment, with the exception of a few highly liquid assets. If BINANCE:BTCUSD drops to 91.7К - 95К USD, it is likely that capital will continue to stay in BTC as investors focus on risk mitigation. Altcoins can only show growth if bitcoin has a new momentum above 107,400 USD. Resistance levels:106.9, 107.5 Support levels: 102.5, 99950 Because of the strong resistance, the price is very likely to test one of the key support levels. And already from 102.5 - 100K a rather aggressive rebound may follow. But it is necessary to observe the character of the price and its approaching to these or those strong levels. Sharp movements often end in reversals, when smooth and gradual heralds a breakout. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → The bulls are fighting for 2750. ATH is close!FX:XAUUSD is in a bull run phase due to rising risks. The price is testing new highs and trying to consolidate above key resistance. Trump's speech is ahead and high volatility should be expected. Gold price is consolidating in the bullish zone after breaking through the three-top resistance. Traders are analyzing the impact of President Trump's tariff policies, which have caused uncertainty in the markets and weakened demand for the dollar and bonds. Meanwhile, support for gold prices is provided by optimism from China's measures to stimulate stock markets. Investors' attention is focused on US economic data, including weekly jobless claims and Friday's PMI from S&P Global, which could affect expectations for a Fed rate cut. Weak statistics will reinforce forecasts of two rate cuts this year, which supports interest in gold. Technically, the focus is on 2750. If bulls hold their defenses above this zone, gold could head towards ATH. Resistance levels: 2750, 2762 Support levels: 0.5 fibo, 2732 Bullish trend, high risks, politics. Lots of reasons that support the metal. But, today is Trump's speech, and this man knows how to make noise in the market. High volatility is possible. But, in general, gold looks as if it is ready to go up, perhaps it can even renew ATH Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → bulls are aiming for ATH. The odds are high...FX:XAUUSD is in a rally phase aiming for ATH. Based on geopolitical data, we have a pretty good chance. The focus is on 2750. From this point the northbound train can continue its journey. Trump's policies are putting quite a bit of pressure on geopolitics due to creating trade problems for major nations like China, EU, Canada, BRICS countries. Chinese Vice Premier Ding Xuexian has warned of the negative effects of a trade war, which has further increased demand for safe havens like gold and the US dollar. Gold is also facing pressure because of the Fed, but the dollar correction is becoming another driver for the metal. Technically, the price is trying to consolidate above a rather important level. 2749. If the bulls manage to keep the defense above 2750, the metal may continue its growth in the short and medium term Resistance levels: 2759 Support levels: 2750, 2737, 2732 Emphasis on 2750. If the bulls keep this area under their control, the gold will go higher. But, I do not exclude a retest of 0.5 Fibo liquidity zone or 2732 before further growth. Regards R. Linda!

EURUSD → An attempt to change the trend could be successfulFX:EURUSD gets a chance for a bullish run. The currency pair breaks the prolonged downtrend and consolidates for a chance to continue the upward movement The global trend is downtrend and at the moment it is too early to talk about a change of trend, as the price is under pressure from the strong resistance at 1.044. BUT! A pre-breakout base is forming around this area, so if the dollar continues its corrective course, EURUSD will have a chance to confirm the trend change. If the bulls are able to overcome 1.0448 and consolidate above this level, we will have a chance to rise to 1.06 and possibly higher.... Resistance levels: 1.0448, 1.0607 Support levels: 1.033, 1.0222 Technically, the focus is on the nearest trigger at 1.0448. A breakout and consolidation of the price above this zone may provide a convenient entry point to open long positions. Regards R. Linda!

Euro can rise a little and then continue to fall to support lineHello traders, I want share with you my opinion about Euro. Observing the chart, we can see how the price some days started to trades inside the range, where it reached the top part at once and then dropped to the bottom part, breaking the resistance level, which coincided with the seller zone. Also then, EUR declined to the current resistance level, and even a little below, after which made a strong impulse up, backing up to the range, where it later broke the 1.0520 resistance level one more time. Then price some time traded inside the range and later reached the resistance line, after which started to decline. In a short time, the Euro declined to the current resistance level, thereby breaking the 1.0520 level and exiting from the range and then some time trading near the 1.0350 level. After this, the price broke this level and fell to the support line, but at once rebounded and rose to the resistance line, breaking the 1.0350 level again. A not long time ago, EUR broke the 1.0350 level one more time and continued to decline. For this case, I think that the Euro can rise to almost resistance level and then continue to fall to 1.0190 points, which coincides with the support line. Please share this idea with your friends and click Boost 🚀

GOLD → Resistance retest before falling FX:XAUUSD is consolidating and deliberately approaching the resistance 2667. The upward market structure is focused on a breakout of the resistance. But the other question is whether the breakout will happen, because the sticks in the form of economic data have been in the wheels for a long time now Based on the market behavior, we can assume that before the possible fall there may be a liquidity grab and a retest of the key resistance, as buyers became more cautious after the discouraging data on inflation in China and hawkish Fed meeting minutes. To be honest, gold's current rise is not clear to me as there is no reason for it except for Trump's tariff plans towards multiple countries. Fundamental data is negative, there is no new news from hot spots, the dollar is rising, global inflation is rising, the Fed has become hawkish, there are so many nuances providing resistance to the metal. Resistance levels: 2667, 2675 Support levels: ascending line, 2656 Technically the structure is bullish and in the short term I am waiting for an attempt to break the resistance 2667. In this case a retest of the zones of interest 2675, channel resistance or 2692 from which a correction can be formed is possible. Regards R. Linda!

BITCOIN → Retest of key support. What can happen?BINANCE:BTCUSD continues to form a consolidation, this could continue until Trump's inauguration. Price is approaching a key support level and a liquidity zone that harbors both crowd fear and huge potential. On W1, price is trying to consolidate above the global rising line playing the role of support. Buyers can aggressively defend this area because if this area is lost, price could very easily and quickly descend to 72-75K. Bitcoin has moved into a local correction due to economic data, but the global fundamental picture is quite positive (thanks to Trump and community interest). Levels in the 91K - 89K - 86K zone are attracting the attention of major players as these are psychologically important and historically strong buying zones, especially against the backdrop of a strong bullish trend. The current flat and consolidation boundaries may persist as traders and the community wait for Trump's inauguration and his active actions, and the economic data had only a temporary impact. Resistance levels: SMA, 99.5K, 102.5K Support levels: 91.7K, 89.3K, 86.7K A false break of support can provoke quite a violent reaction. After such a strong fall, I expect a rebound rather than a breakdown. I do not exclude a retest of 89-86K before further growth. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → The calm before the storm. What to expect?FX:XAUUSD is consolidating above 2645 and trying to test the strong resistance of 2664. Downside risks are quite high and it may happen after liquidity capture. Gold has high risks due to yesterday's favorable data in the US. Hawkish expectations for the Fed, strong economic data put the dollar back on the northbound train. Markets priced in a 35% chance of a Fed interest rate cut this month. Trump takes office on Jan. 20 and his proposed tariffs and protectionist policies are seen as inflationary, requiring higher interest rates and a stronger U.S. dollar. If risk aversion intensifies amid renewed geopolitical tensions in the Middle East or Trump's tariff threats, that could send gold higher A symmetrical triangle is forming on D1, which confuses everyone - where will the price go? And all because the technical situation is neutral. Resistance levels: 2664, 2674 Support levels: 2645, 2632. False breakdown of resistance can provoke a fall to the strong support, the border of the triangle. Gold is growing reluctantly and slowly, as if something is in the way, and the risks and pressure are increasing. BUT! If the price goes to 2664, it is important to watch the price reaction to this level: consolidation above the level may provoke further growth to 2674. Similarly with the support of 2645 Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → Retest of the level after its breakoutFX:XAUUSD inside the new flat is looking for strong support. The fundamental backdrop is complex and amid high risks, buyers are looking for a safe haven Fundamentally, the situation is complex, the weakening of gold is influenced only by the hawkish stance of the Fed and the growth of the dollar. But the pressure for further growth is exerted by many other factors: the escalation of the conflict in the Middle East and Eastern Europe. Trump's protectionist policies toward europe, asia. Geopolitical risks in the world. Technically, the price is testing a strong support area after breaking through resistance. Below is the key Fibo level of 0.5 - 0.7, which may play the role of the lower boundary from which the bulls will start an aggressive game. Support levels: 2637, 2630, 2616 Resistance levels: 2649, 2665 In general, I am more inclined for a medium-term decline, but the local situation is quite tense and complicated. If the bulls hold 2630 - 2640, the gold will continue to rise If the bulls lose, the price will form a deeper correction with the possibility of further prolongation of the fall. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → Breaking the resistance level. Growing interestFX:XAUUSD enjoys interest despite the growing dollar. Geopolitical and economic crisis is the reason for seeking safe harbor. The price is breaking resistance and trying to renew local highs On the first trading day of the new 2025, gold rose along with DXY amid escalating geopolitical conflicts in the Middle East and eastern Europe and rising tensions around the upcoming policies of Trump and the Fed. Traders are awaiting US manufacturing PMI data from ISM and the Fed President's speech due later on Friday for more trade stimulus for the gold price. Support levels: 2649, 2639 Resistance levels: 2675, 2690 A false breakdown of key support areas is possible. If after the false breakdown the bulls hold the defense above 2639 - 2649, gold may strengthen to 2675 - 2690 in the short term. Regards R. Linda!

EURUSD → The bears are stepping up the pressureFX:EURUSD continues to form a downtrend. The price updates the local minimum, reaching the target indicated last year :). What's next? Fundamentally, the situation is weak due to Trump's policy towards the euro zone. The strong dollar also increases the bearish pressure on the market. Technically, the priority figure is the downtrend and the previously broken consolidation boundary - 1.033. It is this zone that the price is currently aiming for as a zone of interest. Resistance levels: 1.033, 1.0448 Support levels: 1.022 Both technically and fundamentally the situation is weak, therefore, the emphasis on strong resistance levels from which the fall may resume.

If the bulls hold the defense above this level, the currency pair will head towards 160-162 in the medium term. The technical and fundamental background is on the side of the buyer. Resistance levels: 157.76, 160 Support levels: 155.88, 154.5 Price consolidation above 156.76 and further breakdown of the local maximum will provoke active purchases, which may lead the price to the targets indicated on the chart.

BITCOIN → High risk. Falling towards 70K or rising towards 100K?BINANCE:BTCUSD is forming a correction phase after Powell's speech last week. If the price goes beyond the accumulation boundaries, there will be a risk for a strong fall as the price is approaching the panic zone... Bitcoin is still in high demand, but private traders are going into a phase of profit taking after negative news, while institutional traders are taking advantage of the moment and buying the asset at a cheap price. But it doesn't mean anything. Fundamentally, Trump gives a big chance to the cryptocurrency market, but after winning the presidential election the excitement starts to fade and then the risk of revaluation increases. If the market does not get what it was promised, a deep correction may occur. Also, the Fed played a negative role last week: slowing down the rate cuts and negative tone about the strategic reserve and reluctance to have BTC on their balance sheet. Technically, despite the breakout of the ascending channel support, the price is still inside the 99K - 86K consolidation Resistance levels: 99300, 103600 Support levels: 91780, 86700, 82700 The price is approaching the support. If the market keeps the price in this zone, bitcoin will have a chance to recover to 100K. But, if the fight for 86-84K zone starts, then everything will depend on the general market background, a negative background can provoke a breakdown of strong support and the price will fall into the void zone...

GOLD → Correction before further declineFX:XAUUSD is testing the zones of interest within the counter-trend correction after it managed to break a rather strong level earlier. The fundamental background is not very good, there is bearish pressure on the market. The negative impact on gold is built around the hawkish stance of the Fed (inflation, Trump's future policy and the economic data of the last two weeks). The cycle of interest rate cuts may slow to 2 rate cuts for 2025. Friday's correction is mainly due to PCE data, but I don't think it will change the global picture. Towards the end of the year, it is logical to reduce liquidity in the markets, which could increase mispriced volatility in the market. Be careful! The gold market is still supported by the conflict in the Middle East and Eastern Europe. Technically, price is forming a flag after a strong decline. At the moment the price is inside the pattern and for trading it is worth paying attention to the boundaries of the local channel. Resistance levels: 2620, 2631, 2640 Support levels: 2606, 2560 Emphasis on 2620. If the bears break the level and keep the defense below the level, it can generally increase the pressure, which will provoke the price drop. But I do not rule out an attempt to break the channel resistance and retest 2640-2650 before a further fall. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → Consolidation after the fall. Trading inside the rangeFX:XAUUSD is forming consolidation in a new bearish plane after a strong fall on Wednesday. The emphasis is on 2622 - 2581. The fundamental background is negative and technically the price is testing the lows. On Wednesday, the Fed adopted a more conservative approach to monetary policy, laying down only 2 rate cuts in 2025, which generally had a negative impact on the whole market except for the dollar, which is breaking through local highs. Today traders await the release of the PCE, which is the Fed's preferred measure of inflation. Any surprise in the PCE data or an escalation of political uncertainty could push metal prices up. From a technical point of view, the gold market remains in the previously mentioned consolidation, and prices fluctuate in wide ranges, which is generally logical for the end of the calendar year: reduced liquidity and increased volatility... Resistance levels: 2616, 2622 Support levels: 2589, 2581, 2560 Since the price is inside the consolidation, it is worth considering trading from the boundaries of this range. In the long term, I expect a retest of the key resistance 2616-2622 in the form of a false breakdown and a fall towards local lows Regards R. Linda!

GBPUSD → One step away from breaking support and falling awayFX:GBPUSD is facing difficulties. Negative fundamental background, strong dollar and price entry into the selling zone gives a bunch of preconditions hinting at the continuation of the fall Yesterday the UK GDP came out, which remained at the same level, there is no driver for GBP at the moment, but there is for USD, which is growing after interest rate cuts, but the growth is not because of this, but because of hints of stopping the cycle of further rate cuts and the change of officials' mood to hawkish, which in general, against the background of Trump's policy indicates medium-term potential. Technically, the currency pair is testing the risk zone, a false breakout will form a rebound reaction and I think it will be a short-term reaction. Resistance levels: 1.257, 1.2597, 1.2665 Support levels: 1.2488, 1.245 After the false breakdown, the currency pair may test the local resistance. But retest of the support within 1-3 days will play an important role. Formation of a pre-breakout base at 1.2488 will strengthen the potential for further decline With Respect R. Linda!

GOLD → Interest rates are down, but why is gold falling?FX:XAUUSD falls to 2581. Yesterday's news had a negative impact on the market and it's not about rate cuts. Technically the price confirms the bearish nature of the market. The main reason for the decline in gold prices is the Federal Reserve's caution about lowering interest rates amid the latest economic data. The US central bank lowered the interest rate by 0.25% to the range of 4.25%-4.50% as expected, but for the next year it forecasts 2 rate cuts, which is much less than expected. The Fed's hawkishness has played its role: the dollar is rising, markets are falling. Today all eyes are on GDP and initial jobless claims. Technically, the price is out of the global channel, breaking the support, gold updates the low to 2581. Resistance levels: 2620, 2630, 2636 Support levels: 2616, 2612, 2603 After updating the low, a retest of the previously broken channel boundary and imbalance zones is formed. False breakdown of key resistance, for example 2620 or 2630 and subsequent consolidation of the price below these zones may lead to further decline. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → Ahead is the Fed and the rate decision. What to do?FX:XAUUSD tested strong support on Tuesday at 2633 before traders moved into a buying phase, hoping a possible rate cut would support their intentions There is a 93% probability that the Fed may cut interest rates by 0.25%. But the thing to pay attention to here is the general backdrop - the Fed's stance. Hawkish hints about 2025 could have a much bigger impact than a rate cut, which is partially already factored in by the market. Any hint of fewer rate cuts next year could be a growth driver for the dollar. Powell's comments play an important role in assessing the situation for next year against the backdrop of Trump's policies Downside risks for gold are quite high due to the controversial situation in favor of the Fed's hawkish stance. Technically, the emphasis is on the local channel. A price exit beyond 2658 or 2633 will be accompanied by a strong impulse. Resistance levels: 2658, 2675 Support levels: 2645, 2633, 2620 The situation is very controversial and complicated, that's why several directions relative to the key zones are indicated on the chart. Everything depends not only on the actual rate numbers, but also on the Fed comments, namely we are interested in the tone and stance for next year. Recommendation - skip trading before the event and wait until volatility decreases to be able to adequately perceive the market position Regards R. Linda!
