GOLD → Ready for continued growth. Target 4100 - 4125FX:XAUUSD remains above $4,000, starting the week with a record high amid the escalating trade war between the US and China. Traders bought up all of last week's decline.
Key drivers: Trump's new tariffs: Introduction of 100% tariffs on all Chinese goods and export controls on software from November 1. China is not sitting idly by: Restrictions on exports of rare earth metals and technologies.
The ongoing shutdown and trade uncertainty are weakening the dollar.
US inflation data (CPI on October 24) will be the first key release after the shutdown.
Speeches by Fed officials may adjust rate expectations.
Gold remains in an uptrend, but momentum will depend on the progress of trade negotiations. A breakout to new highs is likely if tensions remain high.
Resistance levels: 4078, 4100, 4110
Support levels: 4059
A breakout of 4078 and a close above the key level could trigger a continuation of the growth to 4100. An additional scenario could be a correction to 4059 before further growth to 4100-4125.

XRPUSDT → Resistance at 2,700 could trigger a correction BINANCE:XRPUSDT is forming a correction after a strong sell-off. It is not yet worth hoping for strong growth without pullbacks, as there is a strong resistance zone ahead.
The cryptocurrency market is recovering after liquidation. Bitcoin and XRP are approaching a strong resistance zone, where a correction may form.
Technically, after two months of consolidation, the price broke through the support of the trading range, forming a breakdown of the structure. As part of the correction, the price is testing the liquidity zone of 2.7 - 2.7266, which may trigger a sell-off.
Resistance levels: 2.7 - 2.7266, 2.8286
Support levels: 2.505
A sharp rise and the lack of technical potential to break through the resistance level of 2.70 may trigger a false breakout and a correction to the support level of 2.5050.
Best regards, R. Linda!
ZECUSD → The altcoin exception that is growingBINANCE:ZECUSDT withstood the blow of the global decline that affected the entire cryptocurrency market, liquidating long positions worth $10 billion. But even in such a situation, there can be exceptions ;)
The cryptocurrency market is in panic and liquidation. Bitcoin is testing 100K amid massive liquidation. However, against the backdrop of the entire market, there are several coins that have withstood the blow, one of which is ZECUSDT, which is growing and testing resistance
ZEC was also hit by the decline, but after testing the control point in the area of maximum volume density 145-155, the market aggressively and quickly bought up the altcoin, indicating bullish strength at the moment.
Resistance levels: 280.30, 305.65
Support levels: 242.64, 208.76
Focus on the trigger at 280.26. If, during the current retest, the price does not form a deep pullback but continues to consolidate and storm the specified resistance, then the chance of a breakout will be high. A closing price above 280.30 - 280.50 could trigger a rally to 305 - 345.
Best regards, R. Linda!
GOLD → Retest 4000. Pullback before a breakout and rise to 4100?FX:XAUUSD , after a sharp sell-off and testing of the 3950 support zone, is aiming to return to the $4000 level on Friday, preparing for its eighth consecutive week in positive territory.
The Senate adjourned for the weekend until Tuesday, postponing a decision on the shutdown. John Williams supported further rate cuts, Mary Daly confirmed her readiness for cuts, despite the fact that Powell did not say anything particularly interesting about policy on Thursday.
The upward trend in gold remains unchanged. The potential for growth to new highs remains, provided the shutdown continues and the Fed maintains its soft policy. The $4000 level remains a key psychological support.
Resistance levels: 4000, 4059, 4075
Support levels: 3986, 3980, 3968
The 4000 zone may prove to be strong resistance, so expect a battle (consolidation or trading range in this zone), during which the price may form a pullback to 3980-3970 before returning to 4K for a breakout attempt.
Best regards, R. Linda!
LTCUSDT → False breakout of resistance...BINANCE:LTCUSDT is forming a distribution pattern after local consolidation. The price is testing the resistance zone and forming a false breakout, but there is a but. The cryptocurrency market is in correction...
Bitcoin looks quite weak at the moment, forming a correction and local consolidation before a possible continuation of the decline to 117-116K. The local pump in LTC may end in an aggressive decline if the price closes below the key resistance level.
Manipulation (false breakout) relative to resistance. Against the backdrop of a weak market, LTC is forming a rally, which may be a sign of a local trap before a drop to the break-even or liquidity zone (124.1 - 115.3).
Resistance levels: 132.0, 134.2
Support levels: 124.14, 115.36
A false breakout of resistance, while the entire altcoin market is declining, looks like a hunt for liquidity before catching up with the main market. Accordingly, confirmation of a false breakout of the resistance zone could trigger a drop in LTC.
Sincerely, R. Linda!
BITCOIN → False breakout of the all-time high zoneBINANCE:BTCUSDT is rising amid the US government shutdown and testing the all-time high zone and resistance at 123.3K - 123.7K. A false breakout has formed and the market is moving into local consolidation.
The price is reacting aggressively to the retest of the uptrend support. A rally is forming, and Bitcoin is testing the ATH zone. As part of the distribution (14% rally), the price reaches an important resistance zone, behind which lies a liquidity pool - 123.3K - 124.5K. However, the growth ends with a false breakout and subsequent price consolidation in the sales zone. To break through such a strong zone, the market needs significant consolidation, which is currently lacking, and the news that caused the price to grow so strongly has already partially exhausted its potential. Thus, the market may move into consolidation, correction to accumulate potential, or wait for the next bullish driver.
Resistance levels: 123.3K, 123.7K, 124.5K
Support levels: 119.2K, 117.8K
I do not rule out the possibility of a retest of 123.7 - 124.5, but technically, on Friday, the market began a sell-off (profit-taking), forming a sufficiently long shadow on the daily candlestick. In the medium term, I expect a correction to the local break-even and imbalance zone of 119K - 117K before another attempt at growth is made
Best regards, R. Linda!
Yen Slips as New Fiscal Policies Emerge:GBPJPY Watching 203.900!Hey Traders,
In today’s session, we’re monitoring GBPJPY for a potential buying opportunity around the 203.900 zone. The pair remains in a broader bullish structure, and price is currently in a corrective phase, approaching a key trendline and support confluence near 203.900.
On the fundamental side, Japan’s latest election outcome brought a notable shift — a fiscally loose administration expected to keep stimulus running while maintaining pressure on the Bank of Japan to avoid tightening. This mix of expansive fiscal policy and dovish monetary stance could continue to weigh on the Yen, offering support to GBPJPY upside momentum in the short term.
Trade safe,
Joe.
GOLD → The correction will provide a good opportunity for longFX:XAUUSD remains above the psychologically important level of $4,000, having corrected from a record high of $4,059. The market is awaiting Powell's speech, which could set the medium-term tone for the markets...
Key supporting factors: Uncertainty over the shutdown: The phased reopening plan has not yet been approved, which is keeping demand for safe-haven assets high.
Expectations of Fed easing: The probability of a rate cut in October is 100%, and in December is 80%, despite disagreements within the Fed.
As prices rise, the risks of a correction increase, especially against the backdrop of the Fed chair's speech.
Gold remains in a bullish trend. A correction to $4,000 looks like a healthy pause. Further dynamics depend on the Fed's tone and developments with the shutdown — a break below $4,000 is unlikely without new fundamental reasons.
Resistance levels: 4041, 4059, 4100
Support levels: 4001, 3986
Technically, gold has been rising without pullbacks for 35 days. The growth amounted to more than 22%. Accordingly, the market may form corrections, pullbacks, or consolidations within local timeframes. News may provoke such corrective maneuvers before the main movement. I consider the support levels of 4000 - 3986 - 3961 to be areas of interest. A retest or false breakdown could trigger a rebound and growth.
Best regards, R. Linda!
Gold Holds 4,010 Ahead of Powell as Shutdown Clouds CPI OutlookHey Traders,
In today’s session, we’re keeping a close eye on XAUUSD for a potential buy setup around the 4,010 zone. Gold remains in a broader uptrend, and the current pullback brings price action near a key support and trend confluence that could attract fresh buyers.
All eyes are on Fed Chair Powell’s remarks later today. With the U.S. government shutdown disrupting key economic releases, including a possible delay of next week’s CPI data, Powell’s tone could heavily influence short-term Dollar sentiment—and by extension, Gold momentum.
If Powell hints at policy caution amid data uncertainty, the safe-haven narrative could re-emerge quickly. We’ll be watching closely for a potential technical trigger to align with the macro backdrop.
Trade safe,
Joe.
USDCHF → Change in local trend. Confirmation...FX:USDCHF confirms a change in the downtrend and is ready to move into a distribution phase amid growth in the dollar index.
The dollar is breaking through resistance and may continue its bullish correction within the global downtrend. Against this backdrop, the Swiss franc is losing ground...
The currency pair is forming a breakout of the local trend. The breakout of the resistance of the ascending triangle confirms bullish action. As part of the distribution, the price may test local highs.
Resistance levels: 0.8071, 0.8132
Support levels: 0.800
A consolidation of the price above 0.800 may form an intermediate bottom, which will provide support for the bulls before the next run.
Best regards, R. Linda!
GOLD → Testing 4050 - 4100. Need a pullback to tradeFX:XAUUSD is hitting a new all-time high, testing $4,050, and looks set to reach $4,100. This record growth is linked to falling interest rates and economic risks, which are causing money to flow into hedge assets...
Key drivers: The White House may announce civil service cuts amid the shutdown, which increases uncertainty. The probability of interest rate cuts in October is 95%, supported by the delay in data publication due to the shutdown. Global central banks continue to build up reserves. However, as prices rise, so do the risks of correction. The USD is also receiving support as a safe haven, which may limit further growth in gold.
Resistance levels: 4050, 4075, 4100
Support levels: 4020, 400, 3986
Technically, we need to wait for a slowdown and correction to take a full breath before further movement. I consider the local liquidity zones of 4020 - 4000 - 3986, 3961 to be promising areas of interest. I do not rule out the possibility of sharp shocks in the market, so we need to be prepared...
Best regards, R. Linda!
SOLANA → Retracement for consolidation before growth to 250.0BINANCE:SOLUSDT bounces off trend support, forms a reversal pattern, and enters a distribution phase, during which it updates its maximum but encounters strong resistance. What's next?
Bitcoin breaks through resistance, updating its maximum and opening up a new chance for growth for altcoins. Correction and retesting of support in the market may end with continued growth.
SOL is testing resistance at 231.5. The rally has temporarily stalled, and a correction is forming, during which the market may test the break-even and imbalance zone before returning to growth. It is worth keeping an eye on Bitcoin, as a resumption of growth by the flagship will support the growth of altcoins.
Resistance levels: 231.5, 235, 250
Support levels: 218, 205
A false breakout of 231.5 is provoking a pullback. It is necessary to monitor the further halt in price. I expect a retest of 220-218 before the price returns to growth.
Sincerely, R. Linda!
DOGEUSDT → Correction to 0.246. The hunt for liquidity BINANCE:DOGEUSDT.P attempted to realize its potential after breaking out of the downward resistance. After updating the local maximum to 0.27, the price entered a phase of correction and consolidation...
Bitcoin slows down its growth after reaching the 125K zone. A correction may form in the altcoin markets due to the risk of profit-taking. For DOGE, there is a zone of interest at 0.2466
The price of DOGE has reached a strong resistance zone, where bears have increased pressure. A false breakout of 0.2653 - 0.2694 has formed. A sell-off is forming...
Resistance levels: 0.2653, 0.2694
Support levels: 0.2466, 0.2431, 0.2376
Against the backdrop of market correction, a downward rally associated with panic selling is forming. The support zone that is of interest to the market is 0.2466, and this zone is quite capable of stopping the decline. A false breakdown and holding the price above 0.246 - 0.243 may renew interest in growth.
Best regards, R. Linda!
Can NASDAQ Hold 24,600 and Push to New Highs?Hey Traders, in tomorrow’s trading session we are monitoring NAS100 for a potential buying opportunity around the 24,600 zone. NASDAQ remains in an uptrend and is currently in a correction phase, with price approaching a key support/resistance level at 24,600.
Structure: The broader trend is bullish, with price moving within an ascending channel.
Key level in focus: 24,600 — a critical support area aligning with the lower boundary of the channel.
Next move: Holding above this level could set the stage for a rebound toward 25,100, which represents the channel’s upper resistance and potential higher high formation.
Trade safe,
Joe.
ETHFIUSDT → Correction to support consolidation. Rally?BINANCE:ETHFIUSDT is correcting after updating its local maximum to 1.9382. The breakout of the 1.6775 zone is an attempt to start distribution after a long consolidation. Will the bulls hold this zone?
Bitcoin is correcting after a false breakout of resistance. Against this backdrop, the entire cryptocurrency market is declining. However, the trend is bullish and the fundamental background is positive. The end of the correction may resume growth in the market.
ETHFI on the daily timeframe is trying to move into a distribution phase after 5-6 months of consolidation. The trend is upward, and after breaking through resistance, a correction to the liquidity zone of 1.6775 is forming. A false breakdown, a change in market imbalance, and consolidation above 1.6780 could increase buyer interest, which in turn could lead to growth.
Resistance levels: 1.8980, 1.9382
Support levels: 1.6775, 1.5343
The chart shows two key levels - 1.6775 and 1.5343. If the bulls hold their ground above the nearest level of 1.6775, this could lead to a rebound and growth, which in turn would confirm the continuation of the distribution phase. Otherwise, the market may test the POC zone at 1.5343, and liquidity capture may in turn trigger growth.
Best regards, R. Linda!
GOLD → The correction will trigger growth to $4,000.FX:XAUUSD hit a new record high of nearly $3,977 and entered a correction phase to build up potential before further growth. Despite the local strengthening of the dollar, the upward trend continues thanks to a combination of macroeconomic and geopolitical factors.
Key supporting factors: Ongoing US government shutdown: The Democrats' fifth unsuccessful attempt to resolve the issue increases uncertainty. Markets expect two interest rate cuts before the end of the year.
China has been increasing its reserves for the 11th consecutive month, and global central banks bought +15 tons in August.
No bearish triggers: Any correction is seen as a buying opportunity.
Gold maintains its upward momentum. Breaking through $4,000 seems a matter of time if current drivers remain in place. Key risks are an unexpected resolution to the shutdown or hawkish signals from the Fed.
Resistance levels: 3977, 4000
Support levels: 3945, 3927, 3920
Technically, a false breakdown of support could lead to continued growth. A retest of 3945 is possible; a weak reaction could trigger a deeper correction, for example to 3927, before further growth.
Sincerely, R. Linda!
Gold Watching 3,850 Support as Dollar Weakens on UsGovt ShutdownHey Traders, in today’s trading session we are monitoring XAUUSD for a potential buying opportunity around the 3,850 zone. Gold is trading in an uptrend and currently in a correction phase, with price approaching this important support/resistance level.
Structure: Gold remains within an overall bullish structure and is also trading inside an ascending channel.
Key level in focus: 3,850 — a key support zone where buyers may look to step in.
Upside target: 3,930 — aligning with the channel resistance and potential area for bullish continuation.
Fundamentals: The ongoing US government shutdown is adding bearish pressure on the US Dollar. Given Gold’s negative correlation with DXY, this environment continues to support the bullish bias for Gold.
Trade safe,
Joe.
AUDUSD Eyes 0.65900 as Gold Nears Record HighHey Traders, in the coming week we are monitoring AUDUSD for a potential buying opportunity around the 0.65900 zone. AUDUSD remains in an uptrend and is currently in a correction phase, with price moving toward this key support/resistance level.
Structure: The broader bias is bullish, with price retracing toward trend support.
Key level in focus: 0.65900 — an important area where buyers may look to re-enter.
Fundamentals: Gold continues to rise and is nearing a fresh ATH, supported by a bearish US Dollar bias. Given the positive correlation between AUDUSD and Gold, further upside on the pair remains likely.
Next move: Monitoring price reaction at 0.65900 to assess whether the trend resumes higher.
Trade safe,
Joe.
GOLD → Rally to the psychological target of $4,000FX:XAUUSD hit a new all-time high of $3,950 (+1.7% for the day at the time of writing), continuing its move toward the psychological $4,000 mark. The growth continues despite the strengthening of the dollar and the rally in the stock markets.
Key drivers: The ongoing US shutdown (now in its seventh day): The lack of progress in negotiations and the risk of mass layoffs of civil servants are increasing demand for safe havens.
The probability of a rate cut in October is 100%, and in December, 94%. Weak labor market: Trump's statements blaming Democrats for job losses are fueling pessimism.
Fundamentally, gold remains on an upward trend thanks to the perfect combination of US fiscal risks and soft monetary policy. A breakout to $4,000 seems only a matter of time if the shutdown is not resolved.
Resistance levels: 3,950, 3975, 4000
Support levels: 3920, 3900, 3880
Technically, before reaching the 4000 mark, MM may form a liquidation, especially against the backdrop of the FOMC meeting on Wednesday and the Fed on Thursday. Key areas of interest before growth: 3920 and 3900, behind these areas lies a pool of liquidity that will not prevent the accumulation of energy before the next bull run.
Sincerely, R. Linda!
USDJPY → Gap and retest of resistance on a neutral trendThe Japanese yen opens with a gap in the Asia-Pacific session and forms a distribution, within which it tests the resistance zone of 149.93 - 150.79.
The dollar is rebounding again, provoking a corresponding reaction in the markets. However, based on fundamental data, the decline may continue after the pullback.
Gap in USDJPY, distribution and entry into the resistance zone at high speed, there may not be enough potential for continued growth. There is no trend, the price is in a sideways market. A false breakout of 149.93 may trigger a correction towards the lower boundary of the gap.
Resistance levels: 149.93, 150.79
Support levels: 148.76, 148.09
If the currency pair is unable to continue growing, then a false breakout of resistance can be considered. A return of the price to the range on D1 may trigger a decline to support.
Best regards, R. Linda!
GOLD → Consolidation before continued growth. Trigger 3863FX:XAUUSD is consolidating in the range of 3837.8 - 3863.7, preparing for its seventh consecutive week in positive territory. Despite a correction from a record high of $3897, the metal remains supported by a combination of the Fed's dovish policy and geopolitical risks.
Key supporting factors: Expectations of Fed easing: Dovish sentiment continues to fuel interest in gold. Geopolitical tensions and tougher G7 sanctions against Russia. The ongoing shutdown is delaying the release of US data, increasing uncertainty.
Important: If markets ignore the shutdown, gold may face a correction.
US services data (ISM Services PMI) and Fed speeches: May adjust rate expectations.
Resistance levels: 3863.7, 3900
Support levels: 3853, 3837, 3825
Focus on the current consolidation range of 3863 - 3837. Before attempting a breakout, a retest of support may form within the consolidation. The trend remains bullish, as does the sentiment at the moment.
Best regards, R. Linda!
