GOLD DUMPS $50 – LIQUIDITY ZONE AHEAD | CPI IN FOCUS! GOLD DUMPS $50 – LIQUIDITY ZONE AHEAD | CPI IN FOCUS!
📌 MARKET RECAP
Gold kicked off the week with a sharp $50 drop, breaking multiple key trendlines and nearby support levels in quick succession.
Main drivers behind the move:
Profit-taking after the recent strong rally.
Stronger USD expectations ahead of CPI data (forecast +0.1% vs previous).
Geopolitical factors – Ukraine–Russia ceasefire talks approaching their conclusion, adding to risk-off sentiment.
🧐 WHAT’S NEXT?
If CPI comes in strong → USD strengthens → Gold could slide further into the 333x – 330x liquidity zone.
If CPI disappoints → USD weakens → Gold may quickly bounce back toward the 337x key level (previous breakdown area) for a retest before deciding direction.

Will We See a Break Down or a Sharp Rebound to Key Resistance?XAUUSD – Will We See a Break Down or a Sharp Rebound to Key Resistance? | MMFlow Trading 🔥
Market Overview
Gold dropped sharply at the start of the week as profit-taking hit the market and late-week FOMO buyers from last week were stopped out.
Buy-side momentum has clearly slowed, and sellers are waiting for a confirmed breakdown from the rising channel to target lower liquidity zones around 335x and 333x.
At present, price is reacting around the 336x – 337x key support with an H1 long-wick candle showing buying pressure.
Trading Outlook
We need a clear breakdown confirmation (candle close with volume) before executing a short entry.
If price holds and fails to break, we could see a rebound back towards major resistance zones 339x – 340x – 342x.
This week is loaded with high-impact USD data – CPI & PPI – both strong inflation indicators that could put short-term pressure on gold if data comes out USD-positive.

⚠ Risk Management Notes
This is a high-impact news week – expect false breakouts before and after CPI/PPI releases.
Avoid oversized positions into news; keep risk tight.
If price breaks above 3430 with strong volume, the current sell setup is invalid → wait for a new market structure before re-entering.
When Ego Takes Over, Your Account Pays the Price Revenge Trading – When Ego Takes Over, Your Account Pays the Price 💔
Traders, be honest…
How many times have you taken a painful SL, and before you could even breathe, your finger was already clicking “Buy/Sell” without a second thought?
In your head: “I’ll get it back right now… the market can’t do this to me!”
And then…
🔻 A candle goes straight against your position.
🔻 SL beeps again.
🔻 Your account balance drops faster than your mood.
That’s Revenge Trading – it sounds fierce, but in reality, it’s just an emotional storm pulling you further away from shore.
1️⃣ The Sweet but Deadly Psychological Trap
After a loss, your brain refuses to accept reality. It pushes you into the “must recover immediately” mode.
You throw discipline out the window – no setup, no plan.
You increase your lot size recklessly – “Just one win and I’ll be back.”
And… the market doesn’t care if you’re mad or not.
The danger is, at that moment, you’re no longer trading with logic — you’re trading with a wounded ego.
2️⃣ The Downward Spiral
Lose one trade → frustration.
Jump into a revenge trade → bigger lot size.
Lose again → account drains faster.
Emotions spiral out of control → random clicking.
Account blown.
It’s like standing at the edge of a cliff — you could step back and be safe… but you jump, thinking there’s a cushion down there.
3️⃣ How to Cut the Revenge Trading Cycle Before It Eats You Alive
Step away from the charts immediately after a losing streak — go for a walk, exercise, do something unrelated to trading.
Set a daily/weekly loss limit (e.g., -2R) and stick to it.
Journal your emotions after each trade to spot when revenge impulses start creeping in.
Trade smaller when you return — the goal now is to recover your mindset, not your money.
Remind yourself: “The market will always be here. My capital and mental state won’t wait for me.”
4️⃣ MMF’s Note to You
Revenge trading is not strength — it’s weakness in disguise.
It doesn’t help you beat the market; it just helps the market beat you faster.
Keeping a cool head is what keeps a trader alive in the long run.
