EURUSD Consolidates Below Resistance — Bears Aim for 1.1650Hello traders! Here’s my outlook on the current EURUSD setup. After a prolonged consolidation phase, the pair repeatedly respected the Support Level around 1.1640–1.1650, where buyers have consistently stepped in to defend the zone. This area has acted as a strong demand region, forming multiple ranges and triggering previous upward reversals. Each fake breakout below support confirmed that sellers failed to gain control, allowing price to rebound back into structure. Currently, EURUSD is trading within an ascending structure supported by the Triangle Support Line, which has guided price higher following the major turnaround. Along the way, several breakouts and retests validated bullish momentum as the pair pushed toward the key Resistance Level at 1.1710. This resistance remains the main barrier where price previously rejected and rotated lower. At this moment, EURUSD is approaching the Resistance Level again. If buyers maintain control and continue respecting the rising support line, the primary scenario is a pullback toward TP1 → 1.1650, where a major decision point awaits. This area has proven to be a reliable support level and aligns with previous retests, making it a critical zone for potential bullish continuation. A clean breakout above 1.1710 would open the door for a stronger upward move, signaling renewed bullish strength. However, if price breaks below the Triangle Support Line and falls under 1.1640, the bullish structure becomes invalid, and the market may return to deeper corrective levels. For now, the trend remains moderately bullish as long as price holds above support and stays within the rising structure. Please share this idea with your friends and click Boost 🚀

UNH: 50% Inception"All I want to buy in 2025 is Healthcare" has been what I've told people that ask me about this tech stock or that AI company. It is my nature to look for what sector is the most downtrodden and find opportunity there... NOT in what "everyone" is talking about. I still feel that way as 2025 comes to a close. The big move in this sector this year was $NYSE:UNH. I played this a few ways on the drop. My first entry was on the raw 50% Retracement of the trend from the bottom of 2008 to the All Time High of November 2024. Such a fast and deep retracement on such a high capitalization stock cannot be ignored. These things come around literally once per generation. The second entry was the Volume Profile level of the pre-COVID years. This was the last possible Support and if price had traded any lower I would have had to cut my position for risk management. However, it was then soon reported that both the GOAT trend trader, Warren Buffet... and the GOAT contrarian Michael Burry... had BOTH taken large positions in the company and price responded bullishly. I have continued to watch my position and today on my scanner for morning 30m Spikes I saw UNH. This Spike comes at the near perfect intersection of both the short term (November 19th-December 4th) trend AND the long term generational 50%. It's a "must take" trade so I added it to my short term trading accounts to supplement my long term position.

Gold 1H – Will 4232 Liquidity Trigger Reversal or 4188 Hold Flow🟡 XAUUSD – Intraday Smart Money Plan | by Ryan_TitanTrader (10/12) 📈 Market Context Gold trades inside a politically-driven liquidity landscape after former U.S. President Donald Trump signaled that rate-cut willingness will be his litmus test for selecting a new Fed Chair. This comment injects uncertainty into interest-rate expectations, making markets sensitive to any shifts in forward guidance. Higher-for-longer fears remain intact intraday, keeping gold capped below premium zones while liquidity builds on both edges. On H1, price is compressing around mid-range with clean liquidity resting at 4232 above and 4188–4190 below—ideal sweep conditions before institutions commit to direction. 🔎 Technical Framework – Smart Money Structure (1H) Current Phase: Sideways compression after BOS + CHoCH sequence Key Idea: Expect a sweep above 4230–4232 or below 4190–4188 before true displacement Liquidity Zones & Triggers: • 🔴 SELL GOLD 4230 – 4232 | SL 4240 • 🟢 BUY GOLD 4190 – 4188 | SL 4180 Institutional Flow Expectation: sweep → MSS/CHoCH → BOS → displacement → FVG/OB retest → expansion 🎯 Execution Rules (matching your exact zones) 🔴 SELL GOLD 4230 – 4232 | SL 4240 Rules: ✔ Price sweeps the liquidity cluster above 4230 ✔ Bearish MSS/CHoCH on M5–M15 ✔ Downside BOS + clean bearish displacement ✔ Entry via FVG refill or refined OB retest Targets: 1. 4212 2. 4200 3. 4190 🟢 BUY GOLD 4190 – 4188 | SL 4180 Rules: ✔ Liquidity grab under 4190–4188 ✔ Bullish MSS/CHoCH confirms demand takeover ✔ Upside BOS + impulsive displacement from discount ✔ Entry via bullish FVG fill or demand OB retest Targets: 1. 4205 2. 4220 3. 4230–4232 ⚠️ Risk Notes • Trump’s remarks may spark abrupt shifts in expectations → avoid entries without BOS + displacement • Don’t chase candles inside the compression channel • SL placement must respect structural invalidation • Reduce exposure if volatility spikes during Fed-related headlines 📍 Summary Today’s play revolves around two liquidity-driven scenarios: • A 4232 sweep triggers bearish structure, delivering into 4200 → 4190 or • A 4188 liquidity grab forms bullish MSS, expanding toward 4220 → 4232 Let structure confirm—SMC is reaction, not prediction. ⚡️ 📌 Follow @Ryan_TitanTrader for more Smart Money breakdowns.

BTC/USD 4H CHART PATTERNThis BTC/USD chart shows a clean breakout above a long-term downward trendline that has been holding the price lower for several weeks. Each previous touch of this trendline resulted in rejection, but Bitcoin has now broken through with bullish momentum, supported by price action moving above the Ichimoku cloud. This shift indicates improving market sentiment and increasing buyer strength. After the breakout, the chart suggests that Bitcoin may continue climbing toward the next major target at 98,850, marked on the right side. If the price holds above the breakout zone and maintains stability above the cloud, the bullish continuation becomes more likely. Overall, the structure favors upside movement toward the highlighted target zone. If you found this XAUUSD analysis helpful, don’t forget to LIKE 👍 and COMMENT 💬!

EUR/USD: Sloping Inverse Head & Shoulders Breakout Toward 1.178Hi! Let's analyze EURUSD EUR/USD has completed a sloping Inverse Head & Shoulders formation, a pattern typically signaling trend reversal after a prolonged decline. The left shoulder, head, and right shoulder are well-defined, and price has decisively broken above the descending neckline, confirming the bullish structure. The breakout also aligns with the broader rounded bottom forming since October, adding confidence to the upward bias. Price is now trending inside a steep ascending channel. As long as the pair respects the channel’s lower boundary and the retest zone around 1.1650–1.1670, bullish continuation remains favored. Short-term corrective dips into this area may offer potential re-entry opportunities. The measured target of the sloping H&S projects toward 1.1780, which coincides with a significant supply zone. This confluence is likely where the next major reaction may occur. Overall, the structure is logical and valid: reversal patterns, channel momentum, and neckline confirmation all support a continuation toward the highlighted target. Bulls remain in control unless price falls back below 1.1620, invalidating the upside scenario.

XAUUSD: The Uptrend Is Gaining Momentum AgainGold traded cautiously yesterday as investors waited for this week’s FOMC meeting. But this very “quiet phase” is building the foundation for a new upward leg, as the fundamental factors still lean strongly toward the Bulls. 1. The Fed Is Nearing a Policy Shift – A Direct Boost for Gold Lower interest rates are always a key catalyst for gold because the metal does not generate yield. When yields fall, gold immediately becomes more attractive. The market is now almost fully pricing in a potential rate cut from the Fed in early 2025 – a powerful driver for the medium-term uptrend. 2. Central Banks Continue to Buy – A Strong and Steady Support Despite short-term pullbacks, central bank demand remains consistently strong. These institutions are long-term players, and their continued accumulation helps gold maintain its bullish tone across the entire market. 3. Geopolitical Tensions Stay Elevated – Gold Remains Well Supported The unified support from the leaders of France, Germany, and the UK for Ukraine in London shows tensions are far from easing. Rising instability → more reasons for gold to stay strong. 4. Technical Outlook Price is reacting around the strong resistance at 4250, but there is still no significant selling pressure. Ichimoku shows Kumo providing solid support, with price staying above the cloud – confirming the dominant uptrend. Current buy setup remains very reasonable: SL: around 4173 TP: targeting 4253–4260 If price gives a mild retest and bounces, the probability of breaking above 4250 is very high. Conclusion: The Trend Remains BULLISH With supportive macro fundamentals + strong technical structure, XAUUSD continues to hold a clear bullish formation. As long as the Fed does not sound too hawkish, gold could easily break above 4250 and head toward higher levels in the coming days.

XRPusdt (Ripple): Triangle Breakout/Breakdown OutlookHi! Price is currently sitting right at the lower boundary of the triangle, showing compression and weakening momentum. Price is compressing at the bottom of the triangle. A breakout above the top line would likely send the price up to retest the main descending trendline, where stronger resistance sits. If instead the level fails and price breaks down from the lower boundary, it would confirm bearish continuation toward the 1.80 support zone.

XAUUSDHello Traders! 👋 What are your thoughts on GOLD? As seen on the chart, Gold (XAUUSD) has been trading within a defined range for the past two weeks, showing choppy price action without a clear trend direction. Short-Term Strategy (Range Bound): As long as the price remains within this box, the optimal strategy is to trade the boundaries: • Short: At the resistance zone • Long: At the support zone Trend Strategy (Breakout Setup): For a directional move, we need to wait for a valid breakout from this consolidation structure: 1-Bullish Scenario (Higher Probability ):A breakout above the current resistance zone will likely push the price toward the Previous High. 2-Bearish Scenario: A breakdown below the current support zone will expose the lower Target Support Area. Always wait for candle confirmation before entering breakout trades. Don’t forget to like and share your thoughts in the comments! ❤️

Gold Range: The Longer It Holds, the Harder It BreaksAs you already know, I’m not the type of guy who writes the classic “if it’s not up, it must be down.” But with Gold stuck in this painfully 4180–4240 range, it’s almost impossible to craft a proper swing trading outlook. The market has been trapped here since December 1st, and the longer the price stays here, the more violent the eventual breakout will be, at least this is sure. Yesterday was a perfect illustration of indecision: Gold spent the entire session glued to 4200, and even the FED couldn’t shake it loose. As I’m writing this, price has returned right into the middle of the range — the exact place where no trader with longer-term intentions (2-3 days) wants to take a position. That said, even if I don’t have a preferred scenario , I do have BIAS , and that bias is bearish. If Gold slips back toward 4190, I’ll look to sell in anticipation of a breakdown. After two weeks of range trading, the next impulsive move should have distance — and I’m targeting at least 1,000 pips to the downside once the range finally gives way. Ohhh, yeah, if it breaks 4250 then it's up:)

GOLD 4H CHART ROUTE MAP UPDATE & TRADING PLAN FOR THE WEEKHey Everyone, Please see our 4h chart remaining levels and targets for the coming week with one updated Goldturn. We are now seeing price play between two weighted levels with a gap above at 4222 and a gap below at 4124. 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. BULLISH TARGET 4222 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 4222 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGET 4328 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 4328 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGET 4422 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK ABOVE 4422 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BULLISH TARGET 4494 BEARISH TARGETS 4131 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK BELOW 4131 WILL OPEN THE FOLLOWING BEARISH TARGET 4042 EMA5 CROSS AND LOCK BELOW 4042 WILL OPEN THE SWING RANGE 3964 3873 As always, we will keep you all updated with regular updates throughout the week and how we manage the active ideas and setups.

Pancake Swap (CAKE): Getting Ready To Enter The Bullish TrendCAKE is holding the support zone, but buyers still need to take back control by reclaiming the EMAs. That’s the first step before we even think about a move into the upper zones. If buyers manage to secure the EMAs, we should see price pushing back toward the old bullish trend zone. That’s where the clearer momentum shift forms and the long-term target becomes realistic again. For now, it’s all about reclaiming those EMAs and building from this support. Swallow Academy

ETH Momentum Fades — Pullback Toward 3245 Expected📉 Ethereum Analysis — Pullback Setup Triggered Ethereum has completed a sharp breakout above the previous consolidation range, pushing into the 3,350–3,365 resistance zone, but momentum has now slowed.

Fed Just Opened the Door — USDJPY Could Bleed Hard!!Hey Traders, in today’s session we are monitoring USDJPY for a selling opportunity around the 156.300 zone. The pair continues to trade within a broader downtrend, and price is now retracing toward a key trend + S/R confluence at 156.300 — an area that has consistently acted as a supply zone for sellers. Technical Structure USDJPY remains in a bearish market structure (lower highs / lower lows). Current pullback is approaching the 156.300 correction zone, where downside continuation becomes highly probable. Dollar Macro Backdrop: Perfect Storm for USD Weakness On the other side, DXY broke below its uptrend and is now pulling back toward the 98.800 retracement zone, confirming a broader shift in momentum. The fundamentals are even more compelling: 1. The Fed did cut yesterday — 25bps. This reinforces a clear dovish turn, and historically the USD underperforms aggressively in the weeks following the first cut of a new cycle. 2. The Fed's balance sheet is expanding again. An expanding balance sheet = USD bearish liquidity environment. 3. The January FOMC is currently NOT priced for a cut — and that’s the opportunity. The market is underpricing the risk of back-to-back cuts. Now labor market data becomes the main catalyst. And the reality is: If we get any sign of further labor market weakness — which is increasingly likely — the market will start pricing in a January cut very fast. And that leaves MUCH more room for USD weakness across the board. Trade Focus Monitoring price reaction at 156.300 for a bearish continuation setup. If DXY resumes weakness out of 98.800 and labor data disappoints, USDJPY could accelerate aggressively to the downside. Trade safe, Joe.

Gold Poised for a Breakout? Trendline Support + OBThis chart shows Gold respecting a strong ascending trendline while also tapping into a clearly defined bullish order block, suggesting a potential upward reaction. Price is hovering near support with projections toward the first target around 4,220 and a second target near 4,260 if momentum continues. The setup highlights a classic confluence of structure, demand, and breakout potential—often a precursor to strong moves in trending markets. Do you think Gold will break above the first target zone, or will it reject and fall back to the trendline again?

XAU/USD | A drop before a bullish move? (READ THE CAPTION)Good morning folks, Amirali here. As you can see, last night with FOMC news, Gold price surged from 4194 all the way to 4238 before dropping again to 4204 and now it's being traded at 4214 level. Gold is respecting the supply zone and has shown reaction to it multiple times. I expect Gold to challenge the supply zone again, should it fail to go through, a drop to 4160 to sweep all the sellside liquidity there and then again another upwards move for it to happen is likely.

Hellena | SPX500 (4H): LONG to the area of 6956.Hello, colleagues! I previously published a forecast for an upward movement, and I believe it is time to update the plan slightly. The direction of movement remains the same, but wave “1” has lengthened, which means that the correction in wave “2” may occur slightly higher than previously. I expect a corrective movement to the support area of 6764, followed by a continuation of the upward movement and an update of the peak level of wave “3” of the higher order 6929 and reaching the area of 6956 at a minimum. An extension of wave “1” is also possible, but then it will be necessary to slightly revise the wave markings again. Manage your capital correctly and competently! Only enter trades based on reliable patterns!

Fed Cuts Rates, USD Weakens — Gold’s Moment Has Arrived!Based on the current market landscape, XAUUSD is entering a phase where buyers hold a clear advantage , supported by both favorable macro conditions and a technical structure that reinforces a new bullish leg. This is a period where gold isn’t rising just because of news — it now has a solid foundation to sustain its trend. To begin with, the Fed’s 0.25% rate cut — from 4.00% to 3.75% — immediately pressured the USD. Lower rates naturally drive capital away from USD-denominated assets and toward safe-haven assets like gold. In addition, J obless Claims are projected to rise to 220K, up from 191K, signaling a slowing labor market. A weaker labor market often pushes the Fed further into an easing stance — a key catalyst that helps gold maintain its upward momentum. On the chart, price is rebounding from the 4,190 support zone, an area that has repeatedly shown strong buying interest. The structure remains above the Ichimoku cloud, signaling that the medium-term uptrend is still intact . The accumulation happening directly inside this support area further strengthens the scenario of XAUUSD retesting the 4,240 resistance. As long as 4,190 holds, the bullish momentum is essentially “open and ready” for buyers. Combining both fundamentals and technicals, gold is standing in front of a clear opportunity to extend its bullish expansion. This is a phase where the market is less noisy, the bullish bias is clean and decisive , and monetary policy is providing a solid launchpad. If buyers keep control above 4,190, the 4,240 target becomes only a matter of time.

BTCUSD Buyers Defend Support — Market Targets $91,5K — $93K ZoneHello traders! Here’s my technical outlook on BTC/USD based on the current market structure. After a strong bullish recovery from the lower demand area near $83,500–$85,000, the price formed a steady impulsive move upward and entered a consolidation phase inside the marked range below the key $93,000 resistance level. Multiple breakout attempts from the range were followed by corrective pullbacks, showing active participation from both buyers and sellers. Once BTC broke above the range, the price initiated another bullish leg but quickly transitioned into a symmetrical triangle structure, defined by the descending Triangle Resistance Line and the rising Triangle Support Line. Currently, BTC is compressing inside this triangle while holding above the critical $89,500 Support Level, which is acting as the main short-term demand zone. Buyers continue to defend this area, keeping the bullish bias technically valid. The price is now approaching the upper triangle resistance again, hinting at a possible volatility expansion. As long as BTC remains above $89,500, the bullish scenario stays in play. I expect a breakout from the triangle toward TP1 at $91,500, followed by a potential continuation toward TP2 at $93,000, which is the major resistance zone. However, a breakdown below the triangle support would invalidate the setup and may trigger a deeper corrective move. For now, the market remains in a compression phase, preparing for its next directional impulse. Please share this idea with your friends and click Boost 🚀

BTC Isn’t Bottoming — It’s Bargaining: Why 75k Still Makes SenseAs I mentioned in my previous analysis, the idea that “BTC has bottomed” simply doesn’t convince me. And let’s be honest: when a true bottom forms, you won’t see every account on social media announcing it. Markets don’t work that way — especially crypto, where optimism is often weaponized. From a structural perspective, the entire rise from the 80k zone looks like a textbook corrective move. Yes, we had a perfectly normal rebound into the 94k area, but everything that followed has been classic corrective behavior: - Mostly ranging price action - Repeated spikes into 95k that were quickly sold - Clear overlapping structure - A bearish flag, which statistically favors continuation lower If we also consider the four-month distribution phase between 110k–120k, it becomes even harder to justify a bullish reversal narrative. Distribution of that scale rarely resolves into instant trend reversals — instead, it usually marks the beginning of a deeper cycle shift. So from a psychological standpoint, the crowd is still bargaining — trying to convince themselves the trend is intact, even though the structure keeps printing lower-probability bullish outcomes. That cognitive dissonance is exactly what fuels bear markets. My view remains unchanged: 75k remains the primary downside target. And for me, nothing changes unless BTC manages to stabilize above 100k — not just wicks above, but hold with clear buying interest. Until that happens, selling rallies is the only rational play.
