Gold Update – Correction Complete, Acceleration Ahead?1. Yesterday’s setup
In yesterday’s update, after reviewing Gold in other currencies and concluding the bigger picture remains bullish, I pointed out that on XAUUSD a correction was normal after Friday’s huge rise. I highlighted the 3350 zone as the level where bulls should look for opportunities.
2. What happened overnight
Overnight, Gold delivered exactly that: a violent drop into 3350, immediately followed by an even more violent reversal that erased the move and spiked price up to 3385.
3. Current situation
At the time of writing, XAUUSD is trading around 3375. With the 3350 low now in place, we can reasonably consider the correction complete.
4. Key levels ahead
For a true bullish confirmation, clearing the 3380–3390 zone is essential . If this breakout occurs, I believe the 3400 level won’t act as much of a resistance, but rather as a point of upward acceleration.
5. Trading plan
My bullish view is unchanged. Buying dips against 3350 remains the strategy. For targets, a reasonable objective — if 3380–3390 gives way — is the 3450 zone.
6. Final note
Gold has shown its hand: buyers are here, defending the key level. Now it’s about confirmation above resistance — once that happens, momentum could take us higher, faster. 🚀

Gold’s Next Move = Your Next ProfitOn Friday, gold prices soared due to Powell's dovish remarks, reaching a high of around 3379, and the candle chart showed signs of a V-shaped reversal. From a technical perspective, gold still has the potential to continue to rise, and as of now, gold has not effectively fallen below 3360. While effectively curbing the downward space, it also shows that a certain amount of buying momentum is still continuing.
However, gold has not yet effectively broken through the 3380-3390 area, and the upper space has not been completely opened. If gold cannot break through this area, the bullish momentum may gradually weaken in the short term. In order to accumulate enough momentum to break through this area, gold may usher in a pullback in the short term.
First, we should focus on the 3355-3345 area below. As long as gold remains above this area, the overall bullish pattern will remain. Therefore, this area is the entry area where we should try to go long on gold for the first time after gold pulls back.
Therefore, we currently have two trading options:
1. When gold first hits the 3380-3390 area, consider shorting gold.
2. When gold first hits the 3355-3345 area, consider longing gold.
Gold Analysis- Quick UpdateAs I said yesterday, Gold looks bullish overall, not just on XAUUSD.
Right now, price is correcting after Friday’s huge rally – perfectly normal. The key level to watch is 3350 for buyers to step in.
For confirmation, we need a break above 3380. If that happens, I believe 3400 will fall this time, and in the medium term we could even see a test of the old 3500 ATH.
At the moment I’m out of the market, waiting for a trade that’s worth the risk. Patience is also a position. 🚀

XAUUSD Strong 1D MA100 rebound. Buy.Gold (XAUUSD) has been trading within an Ascending Triangle since its April 22 All Time High (ATH). Shortly after it solidified a Higher Lows trend-line as its Support with a 1D Body Candle Resistance Zone, limiting any upside break-out.
Last Wednesday it hit and rebounded on its 1D MA100 (green trend-line) for the 2nd time in 1 month, showing strong resilience and the presence of a short-term Demand Zone. The last Lower High contact was made a little above the 0.9 Fibonacci retracement level. This gives us a 3420 short-term Target, which is marginally below the Resistance Zone.

Selling ZONE : 3390 / 3410 Buy Side Liquidity Zone When Its Take Liquidity Then It Will Drop
Buying ZONE : 3352 / 3349 CISD Another Buy Zone : 3338 / 3327 Buy Trendline + IFVG Setup

Gold is trading above its key SMA/EMA (20-200)Technical portrait today
General signal: opinions on the XAU/USD instrument are moderately bullish. On Investing.com — Strong Buy on most timeframes. According to medium-term and long-term moving averages: 11 “Buy” signals and only one “Sell”, also a significant advantage in the indicators in favor of “Strong Buy”.
Trend: gold is trading above its key SMA/EMA (20–200), which supports the bullish structure. RSI is in the ~70 area, MACD — Buy, ADX — Buy, which confirms the strength of the bullish momentum.
Support and resistance levels
Price boundaries for today:
Support: $3,310–3,270 — a critical zone; a breakout here may initiate a correction.
Resistance: $3,360–3,410 — a zone where a local pause or rebound is possible.
Stock Forecast
Today's forecast is a slight increase to ≈ $3,375, with further potential to $3,412 by the end of the week. Bullish sentiment remains.
Macro and analytics from banks
RBC Capital Markets remain optimistic: they believe that gold can reach $3,722 by Q4 2025 and $3,813 by the end of 2026 in the base case, remaining above $3,100-3,500.
Goldman Sachs also forecasts growth: to $3,700 by the end of 2025, and $4,000 by mid-2026, especially under the drive of ETF investments and central bank demand.
At the same time, HSBC warns of weakening momentum: a pullback is possible, especially if physical demand decreases and the positive sentiment regarding the Fed slows
Rate Cut Expectations Boost Gold — Caution on HighsFed Chair Powell noted that shifting economic risks strengthen the case for rate cuts, signaling potential support for a 25bp cut at the September meeting. In response, gold bulls surged, breaking through the 3358–3366 resistance and reaching around 3378.
⚠️ Caution: After sharp rallies, pullbacks are common. Avoid blind chasing — if you do, keep positions light and be ready to close quickly.
📌 My outlook: I’ve started entering sell positions, with key supports to watch at 3366–3358–3352 during pullbacks.
Importantly, this rally has shifted the 1D structure; holding above 3350 could open the door for a bullish move toward the 3400 level.
Gold (XAU/USD) Analysis - 22 August 2025Gold continues to trade within a high-volatility range, and today’s structure provides us with very clear execution zones validated across the Daily, 4H, and 1H timeframes. By blending price action, order flow, and institutional concepts, we can refine both the buy and sell areas that carry the highest probability of delivering asymmetric returns.
Macro Context (Daily)
The daily chart maintains a bullish undertone as higher-lows remain intact, and price continues to defend key demand blocks. That said, the upper range resistance around the $3360–$3380 area has capped recent rallies, leaving the market positioned between a strong daily demand base and significant supply overhead.
Swing Structure (4H)
On the 4H, gold is consolidating between a fresh demand block at $3318–$3324 and a supply block at $3356–$3362. This consolidation aligns perfectly with premium/discount zones of the current 4H range, giving us clarity on where institutional flows are likely to engage.
Execution Refinement (1H)
The 1H chart adds precision:
A bullish FVG and demand overlap sit at $3320, creating inducement for long entries.
Above, clear liquidity is resting just beyond $3355 and again near $3380, prime zones for potential stop-runs and reversals.
Momentum indicators (RSI/MACD) show hidden bullish divergence at demand and early exhaustion at supply — adding weight to both sides of the range.
Execution Zones
Primary Buy Zone (Golden Zone) → $3318 – $3324
Entry: $3322 | SL: $3312 | TP1: $3345 | TP2: $3360
Confluence: Daily demand OB + 4H discount zone + 1H FVG + RSI divergence.
Secondary Buy Zone → $3302 – $3308
Entry: $3306 | SL: $3296 | TP1: $3328 | TP2: $3340
Confluence: Deep retracement into 61.8% Fib + untapped 4H OB + liquidity sweep potential.
Primary Sell Zone → $3356 – $3362
Entry: $3359 | SL: $3369 | TP1: $3342 | TP2: $3325
Confluence: Daily resistance + 4H supply OB + premium zone + liquidity inducement above $3355.
Secondary Sell Zone → $3378 – $3384
Entry: $3381 | SL: $3391 | TP1: $3360 | TP2: $3335
Confluence: Major untested daily supply + 4H imbalance + stop-run liquidity.
Executive Summary
The clearest asymmetric opportunity lies in the Primary Buy Zone at $3318–$3324, which aligns across Daily, 4H, and 1H with multiple layers of confluence. This zone provides tight risk control with substantial upside toward $3360.
Until we see a decisive break of either the $3300 handle or the $3380 resistance, expect gold to remain range-bound with sharp liquidity grabs at both extremes. Institutional order flow favors a buy-the-dip bias within demand zones, while rallies into supply should be approached with tactical shorts.
Golden Zone = Buy $3318 – $3324
(best confluence: demand OB + FVG + RSI divergence + structural HL defense)
XAUUSD Safe-Haven Flows Could Trigger Bullish Move in GoldI’m currently analyzing XAUUSD (Gold) 🪙✨, which appears to be significantly oversold 📉 and now trading into a prior bullish imbalance zone ⚖️ — an area where price could begin to rebalance. This level is particularly important, as it has acted as a key reaction point multiple times in the past 📊. With gold being overextended and signs of weakness emerging in the stock markets 📉📉, my view is that capital could rotate into safe-haven assets 🛡️, potentially fueling a gold rally 🚀. I’ll be watching for a bullish break of structure 🔍 as a signal to enter long. (Not financial advice.)
Institutional Gold Analysis (XAU/USD) – 19 August 2025Gold prices are consolidating in a narrow range near $3,331, reflecting a transitional market phase as traders await fresh direction from the Federal Reserve’s upcoming Jackson Hole summit. The prevailing bias leans mildly bearish in the short term, with USD strength and higher yields capping upside momentum, while underlying safe-haven demand continues to provide structural support.
From a 4-Hour institutional perspective, price action currently sits at the midpoint of an internal range, offering clearly defined liquidity pools both above and below. This creates an environment where institutional flows are likely to engineer sweeps into key supply and demand zones before a decisive expansion phase begins.
Primary Institutional Zones
Primary Buy Zone ($3,320–$3,325)
The dominant area of interest for buyers lies within $3,320–$3,325, a well-defined discount zone that combines multiple layers of institutional confluence. This level is supported by a Rally-Base-Rally (RBR) demand zone, a fresh unmitigated order block, and a fair value gap formed during recent displacement. The retracement aligns perfectly with the Optimal Trade Entry (OTE) Fibonacci band (0.705–0.79), while liquidity pools at equal lows (EQL) provide the setup for a sweep before reversal. From here, upside targets extend first to the structural resistance at $3,348, and further towards $3,372 — the 1.272 Fibonacci extension of the last impulsive leg.
Primary Sell Zone ($3,345–$3,350)
On the supply side, the clearest short opportunity emerges between $3,345–$3,350, which has been validated as a Drop-Base-Drop (DBD) supply zone. This area overlaps with a fresh order block and fair value gap, while resting in the premium half of the internal swing. Equal highs (EQH) clustered at this level signal an ideal liquidity grab, with displacement likely to follow during London/New York Kill Zone overlap. Downside targets from this zone first revisit $3,331, with extended projections toward $3,295 (Fib 1.272 extension).
Fallback Levels
Should the primary zones be invalidated through manipulative displacement or deeper liquidity hunts, fallback areas are defined:
Fallback Buy Zone ($3,310–$3,315): This deeper demand pocket provides secondary positioning if the primary buy zone fails, offering a structural base for recovery back into $3,325–$3,348.
Fallback Sell Zone ($3,360–$3,365): If price sweeps beyond the primary sell zone, this extended premium region becomes the next institutional supply area, targeting retracements back to $3,350–$3,331.
Golden Zone Nomination
Of all identified zones, the Primary Sell Zone ($3,345–$3,350) emerges as the Golden Zone of the day. It represents the highest-probability, institution-grade setup due to its multi-layered confluence, liquidity alignment, and Kill Zone overlap. With the market capped below $3,350 in recent sessions, this level offers the most favorable balance of risk and reward for intraday execution.
Institutional Confirmation
Cross-validation with external institutional sources strengthens this bias. Reuters confirms gold’s range-bound behavior ahead of the Fed’s Jackson Hole summit, while FXStreet highlights fading bullish momentum near $3,330. TradingNews also reinforces the significance of the $3,348–$3,350 cap as resistance, perfectly aligning with our Sell Zone. Together, these insights support the transitional-to-bearish outlook, while acknowledging that long-term structural demand from central banks remains intact.
Conclusion
In summary, gold remains trapped between defined liquidity pools, awaiting a catalyst for directional expansion. For today, the Primary Sell Zone ($3,345–$3,350) stands out as the Golden Zone, offering the most institutionally aligned short opportunity with multiple confirmations. Meanwhile, the Primary Buy Zone ($3,320–$3,325) provides a structurally valid counterpoint should liquidity sweep lower. Until the Fed’s policy guidance becomes clear, traders should expect range-bound behavior with engineered liquidity grabs during London and New York sessions, best exploited by targeting the defined high-probability institutional zones.
Gold on Fire: Bulls Eye an Unrelenting Surge to 3365–3375Although gold has been weak recently, we have still achieved impressive results in gold long trading because it touched 3375 and 3358 twice during the rebound process. We have made a total profit of more than 900 pips in the long trading, which can be said to be a very successful transaction in the short term.
At present, gold maintains an overall volatile market, but in the short term, gold has never effectively fallen below the 3330-3320 area. What is more obvious is that the dense trading area below is concentrated in the 3330-3310 area, so the buying support below is strong, which greatly limits the downward space of gold; in addition, gold touched around 3358 during today's rebound, and once broke through Friday's intraday high, which to a certain extent strengthened the market bullish sentiment. Therefore, when gold retreats again, there may be more buying funds willing to enter the market.
In terms of fundamentals, the ceasefire and peace between Russia and Ukraine have not yet been settled, and the geopolitical situation remains tense; and the market's expectations for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates are gradually strengthening. Against this background, gold still has the possibility of rising again.
Therefore, in the short term, I still prefer to trade gold long. We can consider buying gold in the 3340-3330 area, first looking at the target 3365-3375 area, and even continuing the upward trend to around 3380.
XAUUSD Buy signal on Triangle bottom.Gold (XAUUSD) has been trading within a Triangle pattern, having dropped below its 4H MA50 (blue trend-line) in recent sessions. It is approaching its 1D MA100 (red trend-line), which is the ultimate long-term Support (holding since December 31 2024), which provided the bounce on the previous July 30 Higher Low.
With the 4H MACD printing a bottom formation similar to all buy sequences of the Triangle, it is highly likely that we will see a rebound next. As with the previous Bullish Leg, we expect to test at least the 0.9 Fibonacci retracement level, which is at 3420.

Gold balances on a fine line: growth or correction?Following the release of soft US inflation data, gold is consolidating in the $3,250–$3,450 range, holding above key support. A weak dollar and expectations of a Fed rate cut are supporting bulls, but locally the price has hit a resistance zone.
Bullish:
Fixing above $3450 → target $3500, then $3550–$3600.
Breakthrough of $3500 will increase momentum to $3650+.
Bearish:
Breakthrough below $3250 → decline to $3200, with increasing pressure — to $3100.
📊 Indicators (D1)
RSI (14): ~43 — neutral, not overbought
MACD: in the negative zone — signal of a possible correction

8/15: Watch Resistance at 3348–3358, Support at 3328–3323Good afternoon, everyone!
Yesterday, gold’s rebound was capped at 3352–3358, failing to turn resistance into support. As anticipated, price then moved into the 3332–3323 battleground.
On the 2H chart, bulls still hold a slight edge, with signs of a potential double bottom. However, if price continues to face resistance at 3348–3352 without breaking out, or loses the key 3328 support on a pullback, bullish momentum will weaken, and a bearish setup may re-emerge, increasing the likelihood of a retest near 3300.
With important US session data ahead, my strategy today differs from yesterday — focusing on buying dips as the main approach, with shorting near highs as a secondary option. Manage risk carefully and feel free to reach out if you need assistance.
Last chance to go long on goldAlthough the initial jobless claims and PPI data were bearish for gold, it still failed to break below 3340-3330 area. After touching 3340, it rebounded to around 3356, demonstrating that a significant amount of buying capital was still entering the gold market during the pullback, limiting the downside while also providing strong support.
Although gold has experienced several setbacks in its short-term upward trend, the bullish pattern has not completely failed. It remains within an ascending triangle structure in the short term. As long as this structure remains intact, gold could potentially rebound to the 3365-3375 area, or even to the 3380-3390 area, leveraging structural support.
Currently, there is a fierce game between bulls and bears in the short term for gold, which brings considerable difficulties to our short-term trading, but why do I keep insisting on going long on gold? What I want to say is that when you are uncertain in the short term, you can zoom in on the chart period and observe. In fact, the trend is clear at a glance, but there are some twists and turns in the short term!
Therefore, in the short term, I still advocate seeking to go long on gold with the 3345-3335 area as support, first looking at the target 3365-3375 area. If gold breaks through this area strongly during the rebound, the upward trend can continue to around 3380.
3340–3330: Bulls’ Last StandI still hold a long position in gold. Although gold has not continued its rebound and is relatively weak, it has tested around 3340-3330 many times but has never fallen below it. As long as gold remains above 3340-3330, gold bulls may sound the clarion call for a counterattack at any time.
Gold has been falling frequently and seems to be shaky, but it has always held the area near 3340-3330. I think the frequent decline of gold is a false signal to trap the short sellers. Why do I think so?
1st, the area around 3340-3330 is the support level of the bullish structure and the last line of defense. It is unlikely that gold will effectively fall below this area in the short term.
2nd, this upward trend began around 3268 and reached a high around 3409.The area around 3340-3330 is exactly the 50% retracement area of this band, which has relatively strong support.
So from a technical perspective, I think gold is currently accumulating energy, exchanging time for space. Gold bulls may explode at any time, thereby triggering a gold rally!
Gold’s Drop: The Calm Before the SurgeThe bulls have been defeated all the way, and the current lowest has fallen to around 3350. However, after gold touched around 3350, the downward momentum has slowed down. I think it is not appropriate to be overly bearish on gold in the short term.
It can be clearly seen during the day that gold started to fall from around 3401, and the decline reached $51 around 3350. In the absence of any major negative news, I believe that the intraday retracement space has reached its upper limit, and the structural support line for gold bulls happens to be in the 3350-3340 area, so the room for gold to continue to retrace will not be too large.
Moreover, gold has recently fallen under pressure several times after standing above 3340, proving that the upper resistance still exists. In addition, there is a certain amount of selling, which has hindered the bullish momentum to a certain extent, resulting in the lack of momentum for gold bulls. After the current pullback and technical repair, due to the increase in gold liquidity and accumulation of strength, it may be more conducive for gold to hit 3400 again or even higher targets.
Therefore, in the short term, I think it is not advisable to chase gold too much; instead, we can accumulate enough cheap chips during the gold pullback, and then wait patiently for gold to rebound and hit 3380-3390 again.
8/12: Key Support at 3343–3337, Resistance at 3366–3372Good morning, everyone!
Yesterday, the market saw a one-sided drop, with selling pressure on the 4H chart largely released. However, the daily bullish structure has been damaged. Given the size of yesterday’s decline, there’s a decent chance of an intraday rebound today.
Key support levels to watch are 3343–3337 and 3328–3323, while resistance sits at 3352–3358 and 3366–3372–3378. Trading should focus on these zones.
With today’s news-driven volatility likely to exceed yesterday’s, if the downtrend continues, I see 3312–3298 as an attractive buying opportunity. My overall bias for the day remains buying on dips, with potential short opportunities near resistance.
