GC1! Gold Futures (GCZ25) show signs of institutional trap and corrective exhaustion—SELL setup favored below key liquidity zone.🧠 Smart Money Concepts (SMC)
Market Structure Shift (MSS): Price broke below a previous higher low, signaling a bearish shift.
Order Block: The sharp rally near 3,982–4,038 likely left behind a bullish order block now acting as resistance.
Liquidity Grab: The spike to 4,059.1 appears to have swept buy-side liquidity before reversing—classic manipulation trap.
Mitigation Zone: The 4,038–4,059 area is a prime mitigation zone where institutions may re-enter shorts.
