Lingrid | GOLD Weekly Analysis: Calm Before the Fed-Driven StormOANDA:XAUUSD price action this week has been a masterclass in consolidation, trading in a tight, choppy range just around $4,200 technical level. This sideways movement is not a sign of weakness but rather a necessary pause after the recent parabolic rally, allowing traders to digest gains and build fresh momentum. The market has found a solid floor at the $4,150 zone, which now acts as a formidable support barrier. Looking ahead, the path of least resistance remains upward; a decisive break above the current congestion zone opens the door for a powerful retest of the all-time high region, with a clear target of $4,285 if bullish conviction returns.
The 4H chart shows the intricate battle between buyers and sellers. We can see a clear sideways move formed within a broad channel, bounded by an ascending support line and a descending resistance line. The presence of a swap zone around $4,150 indicates heavy institutional activity, where large positions are being exchanged, often preceding significant moves. The downward-sloping trendline acts as immediate support; a clean rejection would signal the end of consolidation and the start of the next leg up.
Fundamentally, all eyes are on the upcoming FOMC meeting and the Federal Reserve’s next move on the Federal Funds Rate. Any hint of a prolonged “higher for longer” stance could pressure gold short-term, while dovish signals or acknowledgment of cooling inflation may ignite a breakout. Until then, the market is likely to remain range-bound, as participants refrain from aggressive positioning ahead of the Fed’s guidance. The weekly doji candle underscores this indecision, suggesting that volatility is coiling for a post-statement directional move—most likely to the upside if the Fed softens its rhetoric.

Lingrid | ZECUSDT Critical $300 Level Test After CorrectionBINANCE:ZECUSDT is stabilizing near the critical psychological $300 area after completing a sharp corrective move from the upper resistance zone. Price has reacted from long-term structural support aligned with the lower channel boundary, suggesting sellers are losing momentum after the extended sell-off. The current rebound signals early demand interest, although the market has not yet confirmed a full trend reversal.
As long as $300 continues to hold, the structure favors a gradual recovery or sideways consolidation before a larger move. A sustained bounce from this zone could push price back toward the broken range and descending trendline, turning the move into a corrective upside leg. However, bulls must reclaim key resistance levels to confirm strength beyond a relief rally.
➡️ Primary scenario: support holds above ~$300 → recovery toward mid-range resistance.
⚠️ Risk scenario: decisive breakdown below $300 invalidates the bullish setup and opens the path to deeper support.

Silver Pauses After ATH RunLast week, silver printed a series of new ATHs.
However, after Monday’s one, each subsequent high was only marginal, and the market shifted into a consolidation box — very similar to gold’s recent price action.
The uptrend is still dominant, but for a new accelerated bullish leg, silver needs a clean break above 59.
If that happens, the measured move points toward a target near 61.
On the downside, if bulls lose control of the 57 zone, the most probable outcome becomes a drop toward 54.
For now, it’s a classic wait-and-see environment.
Lingrid | EURUSD Trend Continuation Pattern Break Confirmed ?FX:EURUSD perfectly played out my previous trading idea . Price has broken above the descending trendline and the flag formation, confirming renewed bullish momentum within the broader upward channel. Price defended the higher-low area near the channel support and reclaimed the mid-range zone, signaling strong buyer control after consolidation. The structure now favors continuation rather than rejection, with momentum gradually building.
As long as price holds above the 1.1640 support range, buyers remain in control and the pair can rotate higher toward the 1.1700 resistance band. A clean push through this level would open space for further extension along the ascending channel, while shallow pullbacks are likely to be absorbed.
➡️ Primary scenario: structure holds → continuation toward 1.1700.
⚠️ Risk scenario: break below channel exposes a deeper retracement into the lower support zone.

Hellena | SPX500 (4H): LONG to MAX of wave "3" of 6928.Colleagues, we continue the previous scenario of upward movement in the impulse “12345”.
I expect a small correction in the middle order wave “2” approximately to the area of 38.2%-50% Fibonacci levels (6675).
Then I expect a continuation of the upward movement to the maximum of the wave "3" of the higher order 6928.4.
It is possible that the first wave may be stretched, which may mean a correction-free movement to the target.
Fundamental Context.
Market sentiment remains cautiously bullish ahead of this week’s US data releases. Investors continue to price in a softer Fed policy path for 2026, which supports the equity market after the recent correction.
US Treasury yields remain under pressure, and the latest macro indicators — especially labor market cooling and weaker business activity components — reinforce expectations of an economic slowdown. This backdrop typically favors equity upside as markets look ahead to potential policy easing.

Lingrid | BTCUSDT Potential Bullish Trend Continuation SetupBINANCE:BTCUSDT is holding above the trendline after defending the higher-low zone, keeping the broader bullish structure intact. The recent pullback swept short-term liquidity before price stabilized near the 89,000 support band, where buyers stepped back in. This behavior suggests the move lower was corrective rather than the start of a reversal.
As long as price remains supported above 89,000 and respects the ascending structure, CRYPTOCAP:BTC has room to grind higher toward the upper resistance cluster around the weekly high near 96,000. A successful push through that zone would signal trend continuation, while short-term consolidations along the trendline remain constructive for further upside.
➡️ Primary scenario: higher lows hold → continuation toward 96,000 resistance area.
⚠️ Risk scenario: loss of 89,000 support invalidates the bullish setup and shifts focus back toward deeper support.

4250–4180: The Box Controlling GoldDespite a week filled with major fundamental releases, gold spent the entire period trapped inside a 4250–4180 range.
Even Friday’s strong early rally into 4250 failed to hold, with the daily close producing a sharp sell-off that left traders without a clear directional bias.
Today’s Asian session opened with renewed buying interest, lifting price back toward 4220, the midpoint of the range. But without a decisive breakout, the medium-term direction remains unclear.
Technically, both the medium-term and long-term trends are still bullish. However, as long as price remains locked inside this range, taking trades carries elevated risk.
What I want to see next:
Bullish scenario:
A fresh attempt to break above resistance, followed by either a clean breakout or a tight consolidation right below it — a classic pressure-building structure.
Bearish scenario:
A breakdown below 4175–4180, which could open the door for a move back toward 4100 or even lower.
Until we get clarity, I remain on the sidelines.
XAUUSD: Continue to buy low and sell high within the rangeYesterday’s strategy was to sell near $4,230 and buy near $4,160, and as it turned out, gold touched the $4,230 region after the ADP release, then continued to fall sharply to below $4,180.
If you executed positions according to yesterday’s strategy, you should have secured substantial profits—congratulations.
The ADP report showed a 32,000 decline in private payrolls, signaling further deterioration in the U.S. labor market and raising concerns that conditions may be worse than previously expected.
Yesterday’s ADP release was the final labor data before the December FOMC meeting. While the weaker-than-expected figures boosted expectations for a Fed rate cut—which should have been bullish for gold—prices instead declined.
Why? Because the impact of the rate-cut expectation had already been priced in ahead of time.
In my view, a 25 bps rate cut is essentially locked in, and barring any major surprises, gold is unlikely to break new highs in the short term. At the same time, with rate cuts on the horizon, the probability of a large downside move is also limited.
This suggests gold is likely to remain in a range-bound environment.
The upper boundary of the range remains at $4,230, while support holds in the $4,150–$4,160 zone.
In the short term, selling at the top of the range and buying at the bottom remains the primary trading approach. If conditions change, I will update the strategy accordingly.
If you have a different view, feel free to leave a comment—good luck to everyone in the market.
Lingrid | GOLD Contraction Phase Before Trend ContinuationOANDA:XAUUSD is sliding back into the mid-range support after printing a new higher high, where price briefly tapped the upper resistance band. The current decline resembles a multi-leg corrective pullback rather than trend exhaustion, especially with the structure still respecting the rising trendline. Buyers have repeatedly reacted from this dynamic support, keeping the broader bullish sequence intact.
If the market stabilizes around 4,150, the next upward extension could aim once more toward 4,270, where liquidity remains untested above prior highs. A deeper dip into the trendline would still maintain bullish bias as long as the channel holds.
➡️ Primary scenario: accumulation above 4,150 → continuation toward 4,270.
⚠️ Risk scenario: a decisive break beneath 4,120 exposes 4,050 and delays bullish continuation.

Lingrid | USDCAD Bullish Entry at Key Demand LevelFX:USDCAD is approaching the 1.3915 support band after retesting the descending trendline from below, forming a constructive reaction at the lower boundary of the structure. Price action shows exhaustion in the recent pullback, with buyers starting to defend the same zone that previously acted as breakout pressure. This behavior hints at early accumulation as long as price remains above the reclaimed support shelf.
If price continues to hold this floor, a recovery toward 1.4000 becomes increasingly likely, where the next liquidity pool and short-term resistance converge. Trend pressure remains soft, but a stabilizing base favors upside rotation from current levels.
➡️ Primary scenario: hold above 1.3915 → climb toward 1.4000.
⚠️ Risk scenario: break below trendline delays any bullish continuation.

Lingrid | TONUSDT Support Zone Retest Buy OpportunityOKX:TONUSDT perfectly played out my previous trading idea . Price is hovering just above the reclaimed downward trendline after breaking out of the prolonged consolidation block. Price is now pulling back toward the 1.50 psychological level, where the retest aligns with both structure support and the underside of previous compression. This creates a constructive setup for buyers as long as the market continues to defend this reclaimed territory.
If price stabilizes above 1.50, upside room opens toward 1.80 where the descending channel ceiling meets key resistance. Momentum remains neutral but primed for expansion should buyers maintain control near the retest area.
➡️ Primary scenario: stabilization at 1.50 → continuation toward 1.80.
⚠️ Risk scenario: a breakdown below 1.50 exposes 1.30 and shifts bias back to the broader downtrend.

Lingrid | AUDCAD Potential Trend Shift Channel BreakFX:AUDCAD perfectly played out my previous trading idea . Price is pressing into the 0.91800 barrier after a steady climb from the support, with bullish pressure supported by the upward trendline. The latest series of higher lows shows buyers maintaining control, while the recovery from the base continues to build momentum. Price is now approaching a major reaction zone that previously sent the market lower, making this level a key spot for confirmation.
If bulls secure a breakout above channel, it could drive toward the 0.92210 resistance shelf, which aligns with the monthly high and the upper boundary of the broader structure. Holding above the trendline keeps upside momentum intact and favors continuation.
➡️ Primary scenario: sustained strength above 0.91600 → move toward 0.92210.
⚠️ Risk scenario: a drop back below trendline weakens bullish structure.

BTC: The rebound is not over yet, buy on pullbackDuring the early session, BTC surged to the 94,100 resistance area before encountering selling pressure. The price then retraced to the 92,600 support zone, where it stabilized. This was followed by a modest recovery, and the market is currently consolidating in a high-level compression range with a slight downward bias.
From a technical perspective, the BTC daily chart shows two consecutive bullish candles breaking above the mid-Bollinger band, after which the price has entered a slower consolidation phase. The current small doji indicates that upside momentum has moderated; however, the broader trend still remains within an upward channel.
Short-term pullbacks continue to serve as a re-accumulation phase ahead of the next potential directional move. On the 1-hour timeframe, BTC displays a classic V-shaped reversal structure. Combined with alternating buy-sell pressure on lower timeframes — along with bulls swiftly reclaiming lost ground — this suggests strong buying interest at lower levels. Therefore, the trading bias仍 remains tilted to the long side.
Trading Strategy:
Consider long positions within 92,700–92,300
Upside target: around 94,500
GBP/USD | Where is it headed? (READ THE CAPTION)Hello guys, Amirali here, back with another analysis, this time on GBPUSD.
As you can see, it reached to the FVG and then the supply zone and went up as high as 1.33540 before dropping down to 1.33280. At the moment, GBPUSD is consolidating at 1.33360 level. Should it close the supply zone and manage to stay above it, a move to 1.34000 is likely. If it fails to hold above the supply zone, I believe a downward move to 1.33000 is possible.
Lingrid | GBPJPY Short Opportunity at 2024 Yearly HighFX:GBPJPY perfectly played out my previous trading idea . Price is pressing into the major resistance band near 207.70, a zone that coincides with the 2024 peak and the upper boundary of the rising structure. The climb into this level is weakening, with candles showing exhaustion after an extended trend continuation. Price is now testing the upper trendline, where previous rallies have repeatedly stalled.
If this ceiling holds once again, OANDA:GBPJPY may unwind toward 206.25, aligning with the mid-range support and prior consolidation base. A deeper slide could stretch, where the broader structure finds stronger support.
➡️ Primary scenario: rejection from 207.70 → continuation toward 206.25.
⚠️ Risk scenario: a sustained close above 207.70 invalidates the bearish setup and opens the path toward higher levels.

Lingrid | HYPEUSDT Consolidation Phase After Prolonged DropKUCOIN:HYPEUSDT perfectly played out my previous trading idea . Price is pressing into the 38 region where the descending trendline and horizontal resistance intersect, creating a heavy confluence that has capped every rally since November. The recent bounce off the double-bottom shows relief flow, but structure remains bearish as long as price trades beneath the broader channel. Momentum into resistance is fading, and the consolidation suggests exhaustion rather than a breakout attempt.
If sellers reclaim control at the upper boundary again, it may slide back toward 30, where the support floor and demand pocket converge. This remains the key magnet for downside continuation before any larger reaction can develop.
➡️ Primary scenario: rejection from 38 → continuation toward 30.
⚠️ Risk scenario: a decisive close above 38 shifts momentum and exposes the path toward 43–45.

XAUUSD: Buy low and sell high within the 4230-4160 rangeToday is Wednesday, and whether gold can extend its upward move will depend on a key speech as well as the upcoming ADP employment report. With the absence of the NFP release this month, the ADP report has gained additional importance and is expected to exert a stronger-than-usual market impact.
Yesterday, gold broke below the $4,200 level twice but ultimately closed back above it. During the Asian session today, prices attempted another rally, but encountered resistance near $4,230, suggesting technical pressure at that level. Bullish momentum is weakening, and previously elevated sentiment has become more cautious.
Gold’s current two-way volatility is mainly driven by two factors:
The expected Fed rate cut:
Markets believe the upcoming rate cut may be a hawkish cut, which would offer limited support for gold.
The nomination of the next Federal Reserve Chair:
Trump hinted that Kevin Hassett may be the nominee. Given Hassett’s dovish stance and support for rate cuts, his appointment would be positive for gold and U.S. equities.
However, based on today’s market reaction so far, investors appear unconvinced.
If Trump explicitly confirms Hassett as the nominee, gold could receive stronger upside support.
In my view, before the ADP release and any formal confirmation of the next Fed Chair, gold is likely to remain range-bound between $4,230 and $4,160.
Short positions can be considered near the $4,230 resistance zone
Long positions can be considered near the $4,160 support zone
Once gold breaks out of this range, we will formulate a new trading plan accordingly.
Lingrid | EURJPY Expecting Retest of Previous Monthly PeakFX:EURJPY perfectly played out my previous trading idea . Price continues to climb along the upward trendline, with the latest higher low confirming that buyers remain in control despite repeated fake breaks within the range. Price is now pressing into the 181.250 resistance band, an area that previously triggered sharp rejections but is now being approached with stronger momentum. The clean respect of trendline support signals sustained bullish intent, and compression beneath resistance often precedes an upside extension.
If buyers maintain pressure, OANDA:EURJPY may break above and extend toward the next resistance near 181.800. A pullback into the 181.000 zone before continuation would be a healthy retest and could offer fresh entry opportunities.
➡️ Primary scenario: continuation from 181.000 → breakout toward 181.800.
⚠️ Risk scenario: a drop below 180.900 weakens bullish structure and exposes deeper retracement toward support.

Lingrid | EURUSD Range Breakout Follow ThroughFX:EURUSD is stabilizing above the 1.1590 support after retesting the broken downward trendline, showing that buyers continue to defend the structure. The market remains inside the upward channel, forming another higher low near the trendline intersection, which reinforces the bullish bias. Current price action is compressing under minor intraday resistance, often a signal of energy building for the next leg higher.
If the bullish structure remains intact, FX:EURUSD may attempt a continuation move toward the 1.1640 resistance area, aligned with the upper trendline and key supply zone.
➡️ Primary scenario: continuation toward → 1.1640.
⚠️ Risk scenario: a drop below invalidates the setup and exposes 1.1560 support.

Lingrid | GOLD Pullback Trading Opportunity from Support ZoneOANDA:XAUUSD is retracing into the 4,190–4,200 support band after an extended bullish run within the upward channel. The broader structure remains firmly bullish, with higher lows and higher highs forming along the rising trendline and each dip being absorbed by buyers. Price is now testing zone below the previous-day low, creating a classic buy pullback setup inside a continuation trend.
If TVC:GOLD stabilizes above the trendline and reclaims intraday momentum, the next upside rotation could drive the metal toward the 4,290 resistance shelf, aligned with the higher boundary of the channel. Maintaining support above 4,190 keeps the bullish sequence intact and favors further acceleration.
➡️ Primary scenario: pullback holds above 4,190 → continuation toward 4,290.
⚠️ Risk scenario: a clean break below channel exposes 4,100 and delays bullish continuation.
