THE KOG REPORT - UpdateEnd of day update from us here at KOG:
Ranging day on gold today with not much action. We gave the lower levels yesterday that we wanted price to tap and bounce from which it did, giving a nice long trade to start the week. After that, just small up and down movement not really worth getting involved in.
For that reason, we'll stick with the same plan for now and monitor the indicators for any change, otherwise, still looking for a potential undercut low.
RED BOXES:
Break above 4095 for 4104, 4110, 4120 and 4127 in extension of the move
Break below 4080 for 4065✅, 4055✅ and 4040 in extension of the move

Trade ideas
Gold: Open path to lower grounds?The price of gold was following general market sentiment during the previous week, and was traded in swings. The start of the week was marked with an increased demand for gold, bringing the price to the level of $4.243. However, Friday trading session brought a modest correction, where gold was headed toward the $4.035, but closed the week at $4.079.
The RSI closed the week at the level of 53, after previously reaching the level of 61. The indicator is showing that the market is struggling to take a clear path toward the oversold market side. The MA50 and MA200 lines are still moving without change - as two parallel lines with an uptrend.
Current charts are showing that the gold has an important level around $4.100, while strong support holds at $3.930. Friday trading session showed that the support at $4.1K was breached, which leaves the path open toward testing the $3.930 support. In this sense, the first stop for the price of gold might be the $4K level, before it continues its move further to the support line. With respect to the opposite side, there is currently some probability that the level of $4.1K could be tested again, and much lower probability for the level of $4,2K.
GOLD $GC Levels and Patterns AnalysisTraders and Investors,
Gold (XAUUSD) has been consolidating mostly but still has been giving a lot of great short term and swing trade opportunities.
I have updated the important levels and zones which can act as support and resistance. They should guide us a bit for the best possible trade opportunities.
There as possible W pattern forming. It has not formed or completed yet. It must first break the trend line and confirm the break. BTW, that trend line can also give us a good opportunities around it. Next, the price has to break the mid point of potential W pattern. Once it has done that, it can complete the W pattern.
Trade what you see, wait for the confirmations and manage the risk as always.

Overview: Gold isn’t Stalling, it’s Loading...Things have seemed a bit messy for gold lately: momentum getting shaky, traders unsure whether this is a top or the start of something bigger... But zoom out even slightly, and the story becomes stupidly simple.
First, after price broke an important resistance and accelerated upwards (Check my analysis before that ), we get a strong impulsive leg, a steep ascending flagpole.
Then price pulled back in a controlled, downward-sloping channel. Lower highs, lower lows, perfectly respecting trendlines... Just a controlled cooldown after aggressive expansion.
Price then slipped into consolidation, where nothing seemed to happen. That’s the phase where traders panic, second-guess themselves, and misread a simple pause as a full trend reversal.
Compression ➝ expansion.
And then, out of nowhere, the breakout.. right when traders are drained and doubting the trend. Price breaks out of that range, straight into another impulsive leg. That breakout alone confirms the continuation.
BUT THE BEST PART?
After the breakout, what do we get?
Another flag. A cute mini one. This smaller flag is not reversal pressure. Just a pause before the next expansion. The same continuation logic applies: strong leg up, controlled corrective structure, and now the market is coiling again, preparing for its next push.
Traders call this noise, but it’s just the market doing the same thing on a smaller scale. Corrections inside corrections. Fractals. Order. This mini flag is nothing more than momentum reloading. Compression before another expansion.
THE SAME SCRIPT PLAYING OUT AGAIN.
This is where most traders get confused. They zoom too far in, see little candles chopping around, and think the trend is done. But when you actually look at structure, it becomes clear: the market simply created a smaller bullish flag on top of the larger one. A mini-correction sitting right above the breakout. The exact behavior a trending market should show: momentum, pullback, momentum.
We have a pattern of impulse → flag → impulse → flag.
And historically, structurally, this setup continues until the flag finally fails.
This one hasn’t failed yet.
So my expectation?
A breakout form here and continuation bullish. One more beautiful leg up at minimum.
XAUUSD/ GOLDGold is trading around 4064 after pulling back from earlier highs Price is sitting above a highlighted strong support zone near 4030–4050 A descending trendline is acting as resistance, with a potential breakout projected upward.
The chart suggests a bullish move toward the 4122 target zone if price breaks the resistance Support remains crucial—failure to hold may trigger a deeper pullback below 4030.

GOLD ANALYSIS What’s Moving the Market Today? November 20, 2025OANDA:XAUUSD GOLD ANALYSIS What’s Moving the Market Today? (November 20, 2025)
Welcome back to Trade with DECRYPTERS, where we turn complex charts into clean, practical buy & sell zones that anyone can understand.
Our goal is simple: react to levels, not emotions.
Follow the zones, follow the structure the market will guide you.
*📰 Market Overview*
Gold slipped after failing to hold above $4,100, drifting back into the mid-range as the Dollar Index (DXY) pushes toward 100.15.
December rate-cut expectations have cooled to around 50%, reducing bullish momentum for metals.
Markets remain fragile with data uncertainty, Fed division, and global tensions all contributing to volatility.
*Key Drivers Behind Today’s Move:*
📈 DXY Strength → A stronger dollar limits upside for gold.
🏦 Fed Minutes Split → Policymakers prefer a “wait & watch” stance, keeping gold range-bound.
📉 Shutdown Data Gaps → Missing CPI/NFP prints create unpredictable volatility bursts.
🌍 Geopolitical Tensions → US–China, Mideast and Ukraine-Russia keep safe-haven flows alive.
🏛 Central Bank Demand → Q3 +220 tonnes; Poland & Kazakhstan leading accumulation.
📊 ETF Flow Behavior → After a record +222t Q3 build, November shows slight outflows but AUM stays near all-time highs — meaning investors are still holding heavy gold exposure.
*📆 What’s Ahead — Key Events to Watch*
🔸 FOMC Meeting – Dec 9–10
Rate cuts remain a coin toss. A surprise hawkish stance could pressure gold quickly, while a dovish tone fuels moves toward upper ranges.
🔸 CPI / NFP Drop After Shutdown Delay
With imputed CPI around ~3.0% core expected, any surprise deviation triggers instant volatility.
Clustered data releases = strong intraday whipsaws.
🔸 Geopolitical Risk Premium
Escalations boost gold instantly.
Calm periods = USD strength and pressure on metal prices.
*🟩 GOLD TECHNICAL LEVELS*
Gold pulled back toward $4,050, but buyers are still active above the $4,000 handle.
The chart currently shows a controlled range with liquidity on both sides — a perfect environment for level-based trading.
*🟩 📌 BUY AREA: 4,005 – 4,028*
Strong accumulation zone where previous demand stepped in.
If price taps into this region, expect sharp rejections and bullish reaction candles.
This zone remains valid as long as gold does not break below $4,000.
Best area for swing & intraday long setups.
*🟥 📌 SELL AREA: 4,107 – 4,121*
This is your first reaction zone previous rejections, wick prints, and liquidity sweeps occurred here.
Expect immediate resistance on first touch.
Ideal short-term scalp sell region unless a clean breakout occurs.
Break above → opens room toward 4,150.
*📝 CONCLUSION*
Gold is playing a tight game between demand at 4,005–4,028 and selling pressure at 4,107–4,121, with EQ hovering near the mid-range.
Holding below EQ favors a deeper pullback into the buy zone, while a clean reclaim above EQ shifts momentum toward 4,148–4,165.
Until CPI/FOMC hits, gold remains range-bound with controlled volatility.
If gold close above 4100 we can see it to 4180
Stay patient.
Follow the levels.
Let the market hit your zones not your emotions.

Price is currently pulling back toward the support trendlines, suggesting a potential bullish rebound. If buyers hold this zone, the market may rally toward the highlighted resistance area, where further reaction is expected.”

Gold Intraday Trading Plan 11/20/2025Gold yesterday did rise from 4055 and went as high as 4132. But in US session, it quickly dropped to Asian lows and closed the day in a slight green candle. This sharp drop made me hesitate to buy at this moment. There is possibility of trend reversal in medium term. Therefore, I am monitoring closely at the 4050 level. If this levels holds, price could go up further to 4132 again and even to 4180. If this level fails to hold, gold could go down to 4000 or even lower price.
GOLD: Watching The Support Zone for the Next MoveGOLD: Watching The Support Zone for the Next Move
Gold has pulled back sharply after yesterday’s aggressive selloff, but price is now sitting right on a strong support zone.
This area aligns with the previous structure and could act as a launch point if buyers step back in.
If this zone holds, gold may attempt another push toward the 4,150 resistance and potentially break higher into the upper targets.
However, a break below the support could expose the 4,025 level and even the deeper psychological zone near 3,900.
Key Targets :
4,150
4,230
4,296
4,361

Lingrid | GOLD Key Confluence Zone -Long OpportunityOANDA:XAUUSD is testing the confluence support after completing a clean pullback from the previous weekly high (PWH) and the resistance zone. The market structure shows price reacting along the channel border while holding above the broader triangle breakout region and key psychological level at 4,000. If buyers defend 4,000 once again, a recovery becomes the primary scenario as bullish momentum attempts to rebuild. Price action continues to follow a higher-low pattern that supports a renewed upside push if the support floor remains intact.
⚠️ Risks:
A decisive break below channel may shift momentum toward the deeper support zone near 3,900.
Strong USD flows or unexpected macro data could limit upside recovery attempts.
Failure to maintain the higher-low structure may weaken the bullish rebound setup.
If this idea resonates with you or you have your own opinion, traders, hit the comments. I’m excited to read your thoughts!

Gold Nearing the 50% Black Channel Level – Will It Reject or AvoXAUUSD – Gold Technical Update
Gold is moving closer to the 50% midpoint of the main black channel,
a key level highlighted in the latest weekly analysis.
This zone has previously acted as a strong reaction point,
and the market is now approaching it once again.
Key Scenarios:
📉 Bearish Scenario:
If gold continues downward and breaks below the 50% level of the black channel,
this could trigger a deeper correction and open the way toward lower channel targets.
📈 Bullish Scenario:
If gold fails to reach the 50% level and reverses early,
or if it touches the level and bounces strongly,
a bullish reaction may form, leading to upward continuation.
This area is the decision point:
Rejection → Potential bullish move
or
Break → Possible bearish continuation
Further updates will be posted once price confirms direction.
GOLD Analysis (Nov 19, 2025) - Key Levels for BreakoutOANDA:XAUUSD GOLD ANALYSIS What’s Moving the Market Today? (November 19, 2025)
Welcome back to Trade with DECRYPTERS, where we turn complex charts into clean buy & sell zones.
Keep it simple. Let levels drive your decisions.
*📰 Market Overview*
Gold dipped after failing to hold above $4,100, sliding toward the mid-range as the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) climbs toward 99.55. Expectations for a December rate cut weaken (now ~47%), adding pressure on metals.
*Key fundamentals driving today’s volatility:*
📈 DXY rebound → reduces short-term gold momentum
🏦 Fed hawkish tone after October’s cut; policymakers want “pause & observe”
📉 Shutdown-related data blackout = mixed signals + unpredictable volatility
🌍 Geopolitical tensions (US–China tariffs, Mideast, Ukraine-Russia) continue to anchor safe-haven flows
🏛 Central banks still buying: Q3 +220t, Poland +67t YTD
*📊 ETF flows:*
ETF flows hit a record +222t in Q3, but November is seeing mild outflows even as AUM holds near $472B. It’s like investors took a big bite earlier, but are now nibbling less while still keeping most of their gold on the table.
*📆 What’s Ahead Key Events to Watch*
🔸 FOMC Meeting – Dec 10
Odds remain mixed with a slight hawkish tilt; any surprise tough tone could pressure gold short-term.
🔸 Data Blackout Continues
With CPI/NFP still imputed, November data may drop in clusters, triggering sudden volatility spikes.
🔸 Geopolitical Risk Premium
Escalation brings instant safe-haven demand, while de-escalation boosts DXY and pushes gold lower.
🟩 *GOLD TECHNICAL LEVELS*
