DeGRAM | GOLD volatility is narrowing📊 Technical Analysis ● Price is coiling inside a large triangle (falling resistance vs. rising base). The latest rebound from the 3,323–3,330 support reclaimed the mid-range. ● A clean push through 3,365/3,374 should open 3,401, then the 3,430–3,445 resistance band. Dips into 3,335–3,345 are buyable while the rising base holds. 💡 Fundamental Analysis ● Fed-cut bets and a softer USD keep real yields pressured, underpinning gold; FXStreet and Yahoo note XAU/USD supported near 3,340 as traders eye data and rate cuts. ✨ Summary Long above 3,335; breakout >3,365/3,374 targets 3,401 → 3,430–3,445. Invalidation below 3,323. ------------------- Share your opinion in the comments and support the idea with a like. Thanks for your support!

XAUUSD Intraday Analysis (1H) – August 19On the H1 timeframe, gold (XAUUSD) is showing signs of recovery after the recent sharp decline. Let’s break down the key technical factors: 1. Price Action & Trend After a strong selloff and gap fill, price bounced from the 3311 support area. Currently, XAUUSD is testing the confluence zone of short-term EMAs (20–50–100), which will determine whether the bullish momentum can extend. Market structure suggests a potential corrective rally toward resistance. 2. Key Technical Levels Immediate Support: 3330 – 3335 (EMA20 + local consolidation). Major Support: 3311 (recent swing low + Fibonacci extension). Near-term Resistance: 3349 – 3350 (EMA100 + recent rebound high). Strong Resistance: 3375 – 3380 (supply zone + structural resistance). 3. Indicators EMA: Price is attempting to reclaim EMA20/50; holding above 3340 could trigger further upside. RSI (H1): Recovering from oversold territory, signaling bullish momentum. Volume: Strong buying volume appeared at the recent low – an early sign of buyers stepping back in. 4. Trading Strategies Scenario 1 (Short-term Long Setup): Entry: 3335 – 3340 (if price sustains above EMA20). TP1: 3350 TP2: 3375 – 3380 SL: below 3325 Scenario 2 (Sell from Resistance): If price reaches 3375 – 3380 and forms bearish rejection signals, consider short entries. TP: 3340 – 3330 SL: above 3385 5. Conclusion Gold is currently in a corrective recovery phase. While the broader trend remains bearish, a rebound toward 3350 – 3380 is highly possible before the next directional move. This resistance zone will be critical for the next trading decisions. Follow for more high-probability setups and detailed multi-timeframe strategies.

Gold: Selling Pressure Intensifies Ahead of FOMC MinutesHello everyone, On the 4H timeframe, gold is showing clear signs of weakness. After multiple failed attempts at the 3,360 – 3,378 USD resistance zone, the price slipped below 3,340 USD and is now hovering around 3,330 USD. This indicates that selling pressure remains dominant, while the buyers’ defensive efforts are increasingly fragile. If the 3,326 USD level is breached, the market is likely to extend its decline toward 3,276 USD – the lower boundary of the sideways range that has lasted for nearly a month. From a macro perspective, the market’s focus is on the FOMC minutes to be released tonight. Following a streak of disappointing labor market data along with higher July PPI inflation, investors are eagerly awaiting clearer signals from the Fed. While expectations for a rate cut in September remain dominant, this alone is not enough to ease short-term downside pressure on gold. Moreover, news of the meeting between President Zelensky and U.S. President Donald Trump suggests that the door to peace talks in Ukraine is opening wider, potentially reducing safe-haven demand. Considering these factors, the main scenario remains that gold continues to face downward pressure, with the next target at 3,276 USD, unless the price reclaims the 3,340 USD zone. Thank you for following this analysis. See you again in the next updates!

Gold Trend – Buying Remains in ControlGold Trend – Buying Remains in Control Gold continues to move in line with previous analyses. During the Asian session this morning, the market briefly dipped due to liquidity being cleared after the daily one-hour pause. However, price quickly recovered, broke through the 3339 resistance, and confirmed that buying momentum has returned, strengthening the short-term bullish outlook. Expectations of a new Elliott Wave cycle are gradually taking shape. At this stage, wave 3 is considered to have started — typically the phase with the strongest momentum and widest price swings. This adds weight to the scenario of a medium-term uptrend. Price remains above the key EMA levels, confirming that the long-term bullish structure is intact. The breakout above 3339 has reinforced buyer conviction, opening the way towards Fibonacci extension targets at 2.618 and 3.618. MACD continues to hold positive momentum, while the Elliott structure suggests wave 3 is still unfolding with further room to advance. As long as gold holds above the 3333–3335 zone, this area provides a reasonable opportunity to consider buying. A minor pullback around this level would offer an even better entry, with a tight stop of around 6 dollars to manage risk. As price approaches Fibonacci extension targets, traders may look to secure partial profits or watch for short-term selling opportunities. This approach is sensible given how extended wave 3 has already become. It is important to track price reactions at key extension levels. Higher timeframes such as H1–H4 should be prioritised to capture the broader structure and filter out short-term noise. A sustainable trend rarely moves in a straight line; it is always accompanied by pauses and retracements. Patience in following the main direction is often the best way to maximise medium-term returns. #XAUUSD #Gold #TechnicalAnalysis #PriceAction #Fibonacci #ElliottWave #MACD #Forex #UKTrading

GOLD range remains narrow, watch for progress in negotiationsOn Monday (August 18), according to Reuters, US President Donald Trump told Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy that the United States would support Ukraine's security in any deal to end Russia's war in Ukraine. However, Reuters said the level of support was still unclear. OANDA:XAUUSD reacted quite mildly as no real message of sufficient weight was released, and market sentiment remained very hesitant, currently spot gold is trading around $3,335/oz, equivalent to an increase of about $2 on the day. Tracking the progress of the Ukraine ceasefire talks Trump made the pledge at a special summit at the White House, where he hosted Zelenskiy and a group of European allies. The pledge came days after meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska. The comments came months after Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance had a disastrous meeting in the Oval Office, in which he publicly criticized Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky. However, Reuters notes that a peace deal appears far from certain. Just before the talks began, the Russian Foreign Ministry ruled out the possibility of deploying NATO troops to help broker a peace deal, further complicating Trump’s proposal. Both Trump and Zelenskiy have said they hope Monday’s meeting will eventually lead to three-way talks with Putin. The Kremlin has not publicly endorsed such talks, and it remains unclear whether Putin, whose forces are advancing into eastern Ukraine, is willing to sit down with Zelenskiy or make meaningful concessions. Trump tweeted late Monday that he had called Putin and was beginning to arrange a meeting between Putin and Zelensky, followed by a three-way summit between the three presidents. Meanwhile, European leaders have arrived in Washington to support Ukraine and urge Trump to get Putin to agree to a ceasefire before any talks can begin. Trump had previously supported the proposal but reversed course after meeting with Putin on Friday, agreeing with Moscow’s stance that any peace deal must be comprehensive. Speaking to reporters in the Oval Office on Monday, Trump said he liked the concept of a ceasefire, but the two sides could negotiate a peace deal while fighting continued. Technical Outlook Analysis OANDA:XAUUSD On the daily chart, gold weakened after failing to break above the EMA21 line, which was the near resistance that readers noticed in the previous issue. Gold has also shown signs of a possible short-term decline, but the trend is still not really clear and solid. Specifically, the Relative Strength Index has fallen below 50, but the slope is insignificant, indicating that the bearish momentum is not strong. This is followed by price action below the EMA21 but not far from this moving average, while still remaining above the psychologically important $3,300 price mark. If gold does not sell below $3,300, it is likely to have clear conditions for a short-term downtrend, which is generally sideways. The content of the Trump multilateral meeting, with Ukraine and Europe, will impact market sentiment, and the catalyst is strong enough to break the current structure and hesitation to create a technical trend in the short to medium term. During the day, with the current position, the gold price still has a technical outlook of sideways accumulation and notable positions will be listed as follows. Support: 3,310 - 3,300 - 3,292 USD Resistance: 3,350 - 3,371 - 3,400 USD SELL XAUUSD PRICE 3376 - 3374⚡️ ↠↠ Stop Loss 3380 →Take Profit 1 3368 ↨ →Take Profit 2 3362 BUY XAUUSD PRICE 3299 - 3301⚡️ ↠↠ Stop Loss 3295 →Take Profit 1 3307 ↨ →Take Profit 2 3313

Gold Futures | Accumulation in Play – Watching for Manipulation Gold Futures are currently sitting in the Accumulation phase of an AMD sequence. Price is ranging just above the Daily/H4 FVG demand zone (3350–3360) after rejecting supply at 3387–3394. Here’s what I’m watching: Accumulation: Current consolidation between 3368–3387. Manipulation: A clean sweep of yesterday’s low (3368) would complete this phase. Distribution: If manipulation plays out, I’ll look for price to rotate higher, targeting 3387 → 3404 and potentially higher levels. ⚖️ Bias: Waiting for liquidity run before positioning long. No need to rush — the sweep is the confirmation. Until then, patient observation.

Gold (XAU/USD) Analysis – Daily PerspectiveGold is currently trading around 3,334 USD. From a daily perspective, the market shows a corrective structure with potential for further downside pressure. As long as the resistance zone around 3,366 USD is not broken convincingly, the bias remains bearish. Downside targets are projected at 3,247 USD, with an extended move possible towards 3,145 USD (FE 1.618). A clear breakout above 3,366 USD, however, could shift the outlook and open the way for renewed bullish momentum.

GOLD ROUTE MAP UPDATEHey Everyone, Great start to the week with our chart idea playing out as analysed. We got our Bullish target hit at 3352 followed with no ema5 cross an d lock confirming the rejection. We are now seeing price head towards the bearish target. 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. BULLISH TARGET 3352 - DONE EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 3352 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGETS 3374 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 3374 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGET 3398 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 3398 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGET 3422 BEARISH TARGETS 3327 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK BELOW 3327 WILL OPEN THE SWING RANGE 3304 3281 As always, we will keep you all updated with regular updates throughout the week and how we manage the active ideas and setups.

Gold: death cross doesn’t forgive bullsTechnically , gold is stuck around 3336–3354, right at the 0.705–0.786 Fibo cluster and strong volume resistance. But the key signal is a death cross: MA50 cutting below MA200. This bearish pattern strengthens the downside outlook. RSI remains weak, confirming lack of buying momentum. If 3336 breaks, targets lie at 3298 and 3282 (1.618 Fibo extension). Fundamentally , gold lacks bullish support. The dollar may not be overly strong, but it stays stable thanks to Fed’s cautious policy. Oil near highs fuels inflation expectations, making gold less attractive. No new geopolitical shocks mean safe-haven demand stays muted. Tactical plan : below 3354 pressure remains on sellers. Break under 3336 confirms downside with 3298 → 3282 targets. Only a close above 3354 would flip the short-term bias, but current MA structure and volume point to more weakness. Bottom line: death cross is not a romantic metaphor - it’s a cold reminder that bulls are losing the fight.

Gold Technical Outlook – Midpoint Support Holds, Retest of 3,500On the Daily Chart, gold has been climbing steadily since New Year’s Day, with several pullbacks along the way but maintaining its overall bullish trajectory. After breaking into the 3,167.72 – 3,430.46 range, price has shown comfort within this zone. The midpoint at 3,286.94 (Green Line) has acted as a supportive bias, with price holding above it — reinforcing the view that bulls remain in control. That said, this period of consolidation has lasted longer than expected, breaking the previous rising trajectory (shown by the diagonal Red Line). This suggests that momentum has weakened. Importantly, this doesn’t confirm that the bullish run is over — but it does highlight the market’s current struggle to push higher with strength. A high of 3,500.02 was briefly tested but quickly rejected, which leads me to believe the market still has reason to retest that level in the near future.

Gold XAUUSD Intra-Day Setup 18.08.2025Price is currently trading within a descending channel. A key breakout zone is forming. If price breaks above 3355/58 and retests successfully, it opens room toward the 3381 level. Conversely, if price breaks below 3345/48 and retests, downside continuation may occur toward the 3325 area. Additional View: Momentum shows early signs of bullish exhaustion after touching the channel top, but overall, the structure still favors trend continuation inside the channel until a decisive breakout is confirmed. Hence, confirmation after breakout/retest is crucial before entry. Trading Signals: Buy Setup: Above 3355/58 with retest confirmation → Target 3381, Stop-Loss below 3344 Sell Setup: Below 3345/48 with retest confirmation → Target 3325, Stop-Loss above 3355.
