Gold Over $4K: Blow-Off Top or Launchpad Higher?Gold (GC1!) has been one of the most beautifully trending markets over the past two years — a textbook example of structure, momentum, and clean technical behaviour. We’ve been following it closely since February 2024, and every markup and re-accumulation phase has respected the 5 / 10 / 20 / 50 MA stack perfectly.
Now, price has reached the key $4 000 zone after yet another powerful rally leg. The big question: are we seeing a blow-off top forming, or is this simply another launch pad before the next expansion higher?
Personally, I think we might need a flush toward the 50 MA (orange) to reset momentum and shake out late buyers before any real continuation. That said, I won’t even think about shorts unless the Daily closes below the 20 MA — the trend is still firmly bullish until proven otherwise.
Let’s be honest though… this is where everyone suddenly becomes a top-caller, trying to outsmart a two-year uptrend 🤦♂️. We just keep it simple — follow the chart, trust the EMAs, and stay bullish until the structure actually breaks down.
Key points:
• Daily trend remains bullish with EMAs cleanly stacked.
• A healthy pullback toward the 50 MA could reset momentum.
• Short bias only valid after a Daily close below the 20 MA.
• Holding above 20 ma keeps continuation structure intact.
• Bias remains bullish until proven otherwise.
Questions for you:
1. Do you think this is the final blow-off or just another launch pad before 5K?
2. How far do you see this pullback going — 20 EMA bounce or full flush to the 50 EMA?
3. Are you still riding the trend, or are you one of the many trying to call the top too early?

Initiate fresh longs above 121,321, confirming buyers supporting every dip at trend breakout levels.
Additional exposure can be taken at 121,145 (add-long area) if minor dips are absorbed, marking higher lows.

123,073 (Target 2): Extended bullish target if strong momentum continues.

Range/Neutral Logic
Zero Line (121,583):
Price at zero line marks market balance; sustained action above encourages further momentum, while repeated rejection here raises risk of short-term pullback to lower supports.
Avoid new trades around zero line unless breakout/breakdown conviction emerges.

Range/Neutral Logic
Zero Line (119,333):
Current action near the zero line marks the market balance; a sustained close above 119,333 supports bullish momentum, while repeated rejection turns bias sideways or soft bearish.
Wait for a breakout from the zero line for high-conviction trades.
New ATHs for Gold?It seems like every single week, gold has been making new ATHs. With the overall bullish sentiment of the market plus the government shutdown, I don't see price slowing down any time soon.
As long as price is trading above the VWAP on lower time frames (4H, 1H, 15min), we could continue to see ATHs up to $4,000.
Me personally, I've been very cautious trading in these ATH markets. The reason is because price doesn't have much structure to follow. There's no clear vision of the target when entering longs and you're kind of just trading into no-mans-land.
We'll see what price decides to do early in the beginning of the trading week.

Gold & Silver Push Higher as Markets Hunt for Safe HavensGold continues its climb, breaking through past resistance levels as investors flee into safety ahead of U.S. fiscal turmoil and rate ambiguity.
Meanwhile, silver is turning heads — rallying hard on the back of both safe-haven demand and its dual role as an industrial metal.
Together, they’re painting a picture: when anxiety and uncertainty rise, the metals step into the spotlight.
Gold hit an all-time high of $3,833.37/oz, closing at $3,829.63, on strong safe-haven demand amid U.S. shutdown fears and rate cut expectations.
It then extended gains, reaching $3,842.76/oz, putting it on track for its best month since August 2011 with an ~11.4% gain in September.
Silver also surged: it climbed to a 14-year high near $46.85/oz as industrial demand and safe-haven flows bolstered interest.
Earlier this year, silver broke $35/oz, a level not seen in over 13 years, driven by tight supply and robust demand in tech & green energy sectors.
How To Spot Stagflation?One way is by looking at the copper-to-gold ratio and the crude oil-to-gold ratio.
• Gold reflects real money and investor confidence.
• Copper tracks recession.
• Crude oil represents inflation pressures.
When real money is under threat, the economy slows, and inflation rises at the same time, we have stagflation. This is the worst-case scenario for any economy. Fortunately, we are not experiencing it yet, though the risk remains.
What could trigger it?
Copper Gold Ratio - A downward trend signals slower growth and potential recession. This does not mean copper prices are falling; rather, if both copper and gold are rising but copper is climbing at a slower rate than gold, the ratio will continue to trend lower.
Crude Gold Ratio - As of now, the trend is still down, indicating that inflation remains under control. However, if crude oil starts moving higher, and its percentage change exceeds that of gold, the ratio will turn upward. Currently, inflation already seems to be pointing upward, and if the copper-gold ratio also rises, inflation is likely to trend higher than its current level.
Video version:
Therefore, stagflation = slow growth (copper-gold ratio) + high inflation (crude-gold ratio). Keep a close watch on the direction of copper and crude oil.

Gold Update 29SEP2025: Top Is Soon, Then PullbackGold Futures are following the projected path closely
The first target at $3,900 is now just "miles" away
This level could mark the top of wave (3) of ((5))
After that, we might see a pullback to around $3,660 in wave (4) of ((5)),
which typically revisits the low of the smaller wave 4
On the 4-hour chart, RSI shows bearish divergence,
as it fails to confirm the new high at $3,859 with a lower peak
Despite this signal, the market could still reach the $3,900 level
Once wave (4) of ((5)) completes,
we can reassess and project wave (5) of ((5)) —
which might form as a triangle or another complex correction.
Long GoldSo, without overexplaining: the overall structure is bullish, but the 15-minute timeframe is still bearish for now. You can either wait for the 15-minute to shift bullish before entering long, or take a more aggressive entry from the identified area. Also, keep in mind it’s Monday — the opening can be choppy. Still, the market currently looks bullish overall.
Is Gold Heading Higher?At the beginning of last week, price saw a much needed pullback on the commodity. Earlier news in the week was the catalyst that gold needed to head down.
Some thought we would head down further but gold seems to have traversed the entirety of its pullback, with price trading not too far away from its ATH.
With the dollar still gaining strength from future rate cut uncertainty, is this just a test of the top before further moves down? Could be. But future rate cut uncertainty might not be enough to keep gold from making new highs.
We do have a pretty news heavy week with NFP looming at the end of the week. Remember to always trade with caution.
