Gold Awaits Breakout as Tight Range Consolidation ContinuesSince yesterday, gold has repeatedly encountered resistance near 4168, with intraday highs reaching around 4173. This sustained narrow-range consolidation is mainly driven by two factors: a need to absorb short-term selling pressure and reduced market activity due to the Thanksgiving holiday, which together have limited price volatility. From a daily perspective, the bullish structure remains intact, and rate-cut expectations continue to strengthen. Under such conditions, and barring any major unexpected news, the market is likely to see a directional breakout either tomorrow or early next week. On the technical side, the 4H MACD shows signs of a potential bearish crossover, but the 1H and 2H structures remain constructive. As time progresses, the strength in the shorter timeframes is likely to offset the temporary weakness shown on the 4H chart. In the short term, watch the 4148–4138 support zone, while resistance remains at 4168. Short-term trading can focus on the 4138–4168 range. A breakout to the upside would open targets at 4180–4200, while a downside break would turn attention toward the 4120–4100 support area. As long as the daily structure remains intact (trend support at 4078–4064), gold still has the potential to reclaim levels above 4300. Overall, the current short-term volatility is more sentiment-driven and does not indicate a trend reversal. Combining rate-cut expectations, DXY trajectory, and gold’s technical structure, the recent pullback appears to be a healthy correction within an ongoing uptrend. If upcoming economic data continues to support rate-cut expectations, gold is likely to resume its upward movement after retesting key support areas. However, fluctuations in peace-talk expectations may introduce additional volatility. Trading Note: If rate-cut expectations continue to build and gold rallies sharply before the rate decision, be cautious of a “sell-the-news” pullback. This would be a normal technical correction, and as long as key support levels hold, the broader bullish trend will remain intact.

Gold on expected upswingTechnical analysis: Gold is showcasing increasing Buying presence on Monthly chart as it is virtually unchanged (the #1M candle at # +2.74% currently) as Price-action is on parabolic uptrend within July’s High’s and October Low’s. This has effectively constructed an series of green candles on Daily chart hence the Neutral values on Hourly 1 chart which was an ideal Buying opportunity for Short-term Traders however Gold is struggling to stage more serious recovery even though we are already Trading above #4,100.80 benchmark comfortably. Personally I remain on Medium-term Buying set-up as Weekly chart (#1W) remains heavily Bullish indicating that the latest consolidation was simply another accumulation and distribution phase of the recently started Bull market. However the Price-action just touched the Weekly chart’s #4,171.80 Resistance and is currently Trading just below it. My position: After Profiting on multiple Medium-term Buying orders, I have turned now to more Intra-day calls as announced and am Buying Gold literally from #4,138.80 on multiple occasions and will continue to do so, and will Buy Big if #4,130.80 is delivered. I will not Sell Gold and my practical suggestion is to not Sell Gold at all costs.

XAUUSD – 4H Chart AnalysisTesting the Upper Boundary of the Descending Channel XAUUSD continues to move within a medium-term descending channel , and price is now testing the upper boundary of this structure — a level that has repeatedly acted as resistance in recent weeks. In the short term, the market is forming a narrow rising wedge , a pattern that often appears as a weakening corrective move within broader downtrends. Previous occurrences of this pattern on this chart have also led to pullbacks after touching the channel’s upper boundary. As long as the channel resistance holds , the first area of interest on the downside is the 3880–3920 support zone, which represents a key structural floor in the current movement. A break below this zone could open the path toward the midline of the channel and potentially lower levels. The bullish scenario becomes valid only if price can achieve a clean breakout above the channel , supported by strong momentum and confirmed closes.

XAUUSD: Bulls Defend 4100! Is a Breakout to 4220 Imminent?Hello traders! XAUUSD continues to trade within a broader bullish structure, but with repeated volatility around key zones. The chart highlights how Gold has reacted multiple times to the major Demand Zone near 4,100, which has consistently acted as a strong support area. Each dip into this zone triggered a bullish response, confirming active buyers. Earlier in the structure, price formed a clear Double Top inside the Supply Zone around 4,220–4,230, which led to a strong bearish reversal and a breakdown below the trend line. After that, Gold entered a prolonged Range Phase, where the market consolidated sideways before breaking out to the upside. Recently, XAUUSD attempted a bullish continuation, but the move resulted in a Fake Breakout above the supply zone, signaling that buyers lacked the strength to maintain momentum above 4,220. This rejection pushed price downward and back below the main Trend Line, which now acts as dynamic resistance. Currently, Gold is trading above the 4,100 Demand Zone, forming a potential Inverse Head and Shoulders pattern — an early sign that buyers may be preparing for another upward push. As long as price holds above 4,100 and stays above local structure, the bullish scenario remains valid. My scenario, if XAUUSD holds above the 4,100 Demand Zone, buyers may gain momentum and attempt another breakout toward the 4,200–4,220 Supply Zone, which is the next major resistance and the primary upside target. A sustained break above 4,220 would confirm bullish strength and could open the path toward higher continuation targets. However, if buyers fail to hold the 4,100 level, Gold may drop back into the previous range or retest lower support areas before attempting another reversal. For now, the bias is moderately bullish, supported by demand reactions and reversal patterns — but a confirmed breakout above 4,200 is needed for stronger trend continuation. Manage your risk!

USD Stunned: Buy Gold at the Adjustment Bottom!1. Fundamentals Quick Take US Data: Positive (Jobless Claims 216K, lowest in 7 months, Durable Goods +0.5%). Fed Policy: Extremely Dovish. Fed officials hint at a 25bps rate cut as early as December. Impact: Low interest rate expectations push DXY down: Strong support for Gold. 2. Technical Outlook - H1 Trend: Strong Uptrend. Position: Price is below Resistance/Supply (CP Zone - around 4,175 - 4,195). High likelihood of short-term adjustment. Strategy: Focus on BUY (Long) at strong Demand/Support zones, do not Short based on short-term reactions. Ideal Long Zone: Around 4,129 or 4,096. Conclusion: Wait for price to adjust to the Demand zone to enter Long orders following the main trend, based on the USD's decline momentum from Fed signals. #XAUUSD #Gold #Fed #DXY #TradingView

ANFIBO XAUUSD – Holiday Range or Surprise Breakout? [11.27]Hi guys, Anfibo’s here! XAUUSD Intraday Trading Plan Overall Picture On M30, gold is trading inside a tightening rising structure, with price repeatedly bouncing between local support and descending short-term resistance. Liquidity is thin due to the holiday period, so the market is compressing in a narrow range instead of showing a clear trend. Key things on the chart: Upper trendline + horizontal resistance around 4170–4175 is acting as a sell zone. Local supports are stacked around 4143 – 4136, with a major liquidity pocket / demand zone near 4110 labeled “Strong Liquidity”. Because of low volume and mixed flows, the safest approach is to trade the edges or wait for a clean breakout of this range. On the macro side, USD is correcting as markets price in a more dovish Fed path, while Thanksgiving liquidity is thin. According to ING, recent USD moves are more about rate expectations than geopolitics, and the low-liquidity environment can also invite occasional volatility spikes, especially in pairs like USD/JPY. All of this supports a choppy, indecisive environment for gold in the short term. Trading Plan – Fade the Edges, Respect the Range We’ll work with two tactical setups: a sell from resistance and a buy from deep liquidity support. >>> Scenario #1 – SELL from 4173 Resistance Zone If price drifts back into the upper boundary and reacts bearishly, I’ll look for short setups: Sell entry: 4173 – 4175 Stop loss: 4180 Take profit levels: TP1: 4162 TP2: 4150 TP3: 4122 TP4: 4110 (strong liquidity / demand) Idea: fade the holiday squeeze into resistance, targeting a move back toward mid-range support and eventually the liquidity zone at 4110 if downside extends. >>> Scenario #2 – BUY from the Strong Liquidity Zone If price flushes down into the 4110 area and shows strong rejection, I’ll switch to a buy-the-dip plan: Buy entry: 4110 – 4112 Stop loss: 4104 Take profit levels: TP1: 4133 TP2: 4150 TP3: 4172 TP4: 4190 (if market breaks above the current range) Idea: participate in a liquidity grab at the bottom of the structure, aiming for a bounce back into the core of the range and potentially a breakout if volume returns. Key Intraday Levels to Watch Resistance / Sell zone: 4167 – 4175 Mid-range supports: 4143 – 4136 Major liquidity support: 4110 – 4112 A clean break and hold outside this band would signal the next directional move; until then, this is a range market. Risk Management Holiday liquidity can be tricky – avoid over-leveraging and keep positions smaller than usual. Wait for clear rejection or confirmation at planned levels; avoid trading in the noisy middle of the range. Maintain Risk:Reward ≥ 1:2 for both buy and sell setups. Do not hold both directions simultaneously; follow the scenario that price confirms first. If price breaks and holds beyond your SL zone (above 4180 or below 4104), close the idea and reassess instead of forcing re-entries. Conclusion Gold is stuck in a narrow holiday range, squeezed between resistance near 4175 and liquidity support around 4110. With USD adjusting to softer Fed expectations and volumes thin, the best edge comes from patiently trading the extremes or standing aside until price finally breaks out. TRADE THE EDGES, RESPECT THE RANGE, AND LET THE MARKET SHOW ITS HAND, GUYS!
