Gold Update 02DEC2025: Multiple Options Are PossibleThe price has been stuck in the range as expected for wave 4
Let’s navigate this chaos and build viable paths on the chart
Option 1: Ending Diagonal wave 5 — pink marks
This option is based on the idea that wave 4 looks disproportionately large compared to wave 2
It could already be over after the first large move down to the $3,900 area
The current ascending zigzag may be shaping an Ending Diagonal in wave 5 to retest the former top around $4,400
Option 2: Triangle — orange marks
I left this path on the chart last time for visualization and it still could play out
Waves A and B could be completed with waves C, D, E ahead
Option 3: Large sideways consolidation (range, box) — white marks
This scenario implies a flat correction within the established $4,400–$3,900 range
Which path do you think the price will take?

Gold Futures are trading near 130,725, pushing just above the zero line at 130,652 and testing the Long Entry band at 130,785 after recovering from a sharp intraday dip, signalling an emerging bullish attempt against prior supply. Each comment or share builds the momentum for disciplined, structured analysis across our trading community!
Bullish Structure
Longs activate above the Long Entry level at 130,785, with stronger conviction if price sustains above the zero line at 130,652 and holds the Add Long Position level at 130,616 as support on intraday pullbacks.
Targets: 131,537 (Long Target 1 / primary booking zone) and 132,084 (Long Target 2 / extended upside leg on strong breakout).
Control: Place stop or trail near 130,447–130,308 (Short Entry and Long Exit band) to keep risk defined while bullish structure remains active.
Bearish Structure
Shorts open below the Short Entry level at 130,447 or on clear rejection between 130,785 and the Short Exit supply zone at 130,924 after failed upside attempts.
Targets: 129,767 (Short Target 1 / partial or scalp booking) and 129,220 (Short Target 2 / extended downside if breakdown sustains).
Control: Fast short covers are required back above 130,785–130,924 where bearish structure weakens and trapped shorts risk a squeeze.
Neutral Zone
130,652 is today’s inflection and zero line—expect sideways, noisy moves while gold oscillates between roughly 130,447 and 130,785 without decisive 5-minute closes outside this band.
Every setup is designed for structure, plan, and logic—let the chart work for you, not your emotions.

How to Trade with Bollinger Bands in TradingViewBollinger Bands are a volatility indicator that helps traders identify market extremes, trend strength, and potential breakout setups by measuring how far price moves away from its average.
What You’ll Learn:
• Understanding Bollinger Bands as a volatility-based trading tool built around a moving average
• How the middle band represents the 20-period simple moving average (SMA)
• How the upper and lower bands are calculated as two standard deviations above and below that SMA
• Why expanding bands signal rising volatility — and tightening bands signal market compression
• Recognizing overbought and oversold conditions when price touches or moves beyond the upper or lower bands
• Why these signals aren’t automatic buy or sell triggers, and how to confirm them with other tools like RSI or MACD
• Identifying the “Bollinger Band squeeze,” a setup that often precedes major breakouts
• Spotting potential mean-reversion trades when price closes back inside the bands after moving outside
• How to add Bollinger Bands on TradingView via the Indicators menu
• Understanding the default settings (20, 2) and how adjusting the period or deviation affects sensitivity
• Practical examples using the E-mini S&P 500 futures chart
• Applying Bollinger Bands across daily, weekly, and intraday timeframes for volatility analysis and signal confirmation
This tutorial is designed for futures traders, swing traders, and technical analysts who want to integrate volatility dynamics into their trading approach.
The methods discussed may help you identify breakout conditions, trend continuation signals, and potential reversal zones across multiple markets and timeframes.

15Min Rally-Base-Rally Long Setup | Daily & 4H Demand in Controlaily and 4H remain bullish with demand in control. Price is reacting at the base of a 15-minute Rally-Base-Rally demand zone that removed opposing 15M supply and is nested within 4H structure.
Despite being high in the range, execution is only for longs in alignment with HTF demand. Patience and risk management first.
Thin Structure Repair & ATH ProximityCOMEX:GC1! COMEX_MINI:MGCG2026
Market Structure (The Problem):
The rally into this new high was built on a very thin profile. The auction moved higher emotionally on low holiday volume, leaving a series of single prints/low volume nodes (LVN) below current price.
The Theory:
In Market Profile, "thin" structures are fragile. The market often needs to rotate back down to "repair" this structure—backfilling the volume to prove that buyers actually exist at these higher prices.
Context & Seasonality:
ATH Proximity: We are striking distance from All-Time Highs. The air is thin up here, and without strong volume support, a breakout is prone to failure.
Time Constraint: We have a short trading window (runway) before Christmas and Year-End book squaring. Liquidity will likely be sporadic.
Plan & Execution: Heading into the US Open, I am cautious of this rally.
Stance: Flat / Monitoring.
The Setup: I am looking for a correction to repair the thin profile below.
Execution: If the market rotates down and finds acceptance (buyers) within that thin structure, it validates the trend. If it slices through, the rally was a fake-out.
Let's see how the auction develops today.

Gold futuresOver the past four weeks, gold futures fell to the 3900 level, before resuming their upward move. They may be now be preparing to retest the all-time high at 4400. Formally, the trend remains bullish, however, from a historical perspective, it has already lasted for more than 1000 days, leaving limited room for further upside.
Long-term trend: Up
Resistance level: 4400
Support level: 3900
MGC Long Setup – 15M WOW Demand Aligned with 4H & Daily Trend15M WOW demand has formed from a trendline break, showing a shift in order flow.
Even though the 15M structure is currently bearish, the 4H and Daily trends remain bullish, keeping the higher-timeframe bias to the upside.
Entry plan:
• 15M demand wick entry
• Or refined entry using 1M nested demand
This is a lower-timeframe entry aligned with higher-timeframe continuation.
GOLD/ SILVER RATIO - Quarterly FlagBeautiful looking quarterly flag present on the gold silver ratio, should this break down, which would be likely to play out over the next 12-18 months (at most) then expect much higher silver prices.
I would expect to see the ratio hit between 50-30 should this flag pattern materialize.
The Truth About Timeframe Analysis – Chapter 2FAFO – F*-AROUND-FIND-OUT FRAMEWORK”**
If timeframes misalign, the market punishes you — every single time.
1️⃣ Trend / Impulse Check
Last impulse >2× previous → momentum, not trend.
Momentum alone = FAFO
Check last candles → volume continuation or fade
Context decides survival.
2️⃣ Zones Only Count With Confluence
Align with:
✔ Trend
✔ HTF
✔ Clean break/retest
✔ Rejection candle
✔ Multiple TFs clean
No confluence = decoration, ignore.
3️⃣ Candles = Evidence, Not Setups
Single candles ≠ signal
Must fit context + confluence
Wrong context → FAFO
4️⃣ Confluence = Survival
2 variables aligned + 1 neutral = potential
Any contradiction = dead setup
No guessing. No opinions.
5️⃣ Timeframe Conflicts → Wait
H1 bullish, M15 bearish → NO TRADE
Waiting = capital protection, not inactivity
Force a trade → FAFO
6️⃣ Context = Weapon
Strong trend + HTF resistance + fading volume = conflict → do not trade
Market shakes out amateurs here
Respect context or get cleaned
7️⃣ Golden Rule
Never trade against HTF unless MTF confirms reversal:
✔ Structure shift
✔ Volume shift
✔ Rejection candle
✔ Alignment
Trade anyway → RR small, execution precise
8️⃣ 10-SECOND CLASSIFICATION CHECK
HTF → bullish / bearish / conflict
MTF → aligned / challenging / opposite
LTF → entry / noise
Zone → fresh / retested / dead
Candle → supportive / neutral / invalidation
Confluence → 2 aligned + 1 neutral = tradeable
Contradiction → NO TRADE
9️⃣ FAFO Examples
Bearish M15 at HTF demand = FAFO
Momentum into dead zone = FAFO
Giant candle in consolidation = FAFO
10️⃣ Rule Stack
HTF owns the market
MTF decides opportunity
LTF executes only
Two variables aligned = potential
One contradiction = dead setup
Momentum ≠ trend
Zones need confluence or they don’t exist
MGC / GOLD 15/4h/D🧠 Multi-Timeframe Alignment – XAUUSD
Daily + 4H demand are in control ✅
15M structure is bullish ✅
Although price is currently high in the range, this 15M demand is valid because it just displaced and removed the opposing light red zone.
With lower timeframe confirmation and HTF alignment, I’m projecting price to continue higher and remove the 4H opposing zone.
