THE KOG REPORTTHE KOG REPORT:
In last week’s KOG Report we had a bias level and bullish above 3740 and a red box break we wanted to see above the 3765 level. We managed to swoop the low, not into 3740 but not far off, then break above and managed to complete all of the red box targets on that day.
During the week, we then released our updates confirming the move and managed to track it all the way, near enough to the top, where we suggested caution on longs and expected the move down, which worked very well.
All in all, another successful week in Camelot, not only on Gold but across the other pairs we trade and analyse as well.
So, what can we expect in the week ahead?
We had a 60% recovery on Friday which Is a good sign for bulls, however, there is a bias level here and that’s the 4003-6 region. We’ll use that as the guide for a break above or below for the opening, and say that if it holds, we should be looking for a completion of the move into the 4030-3 levels and above that 4060. If we do reach 4050, we will have flipped and any RIPs will be temporary from what we can see with potential for price to attempt the 4100 level and potentially a little above, which is where we feel there may be an opportunity to short again.
Now, if we can break below the 4003 level, bulls will need to play caution as the first main key level below starts at 3955 which is where we may get a temporary bounce, but based on the flip below 3995 will become the new resistance level.
We’re expecting potential gaps on market open so we’ll leave this report as subject to change for now and as always, we’ll update traders with our red box strategy levels and what to look for.
KOG’s bias of the week:
Bullish above 4003
Bearish below 4003
RED BOX TARGETS:
Break above 4630 for 4645, 4660, 4663 and 4672 in extension of the move
Break below 4620 for 4610, 4603. 3998, 3990, 3985 and 3960 in extension of the move

what is happening wiyth xauusd?1. Fundamental Analysis (Macro Drivers)
🏦 Monetary Policy & Interest Rates
Federal Reserve stance: The Fed has paused rate hikes amid slowing US growth and moderating inflation. Real yields have begun to fall, which supports gold prices.
Market expectation: Traders now expect possible rate cuts in early 2026, lowering opportunity costs of holding non-yielding assets like gold.
Impact: Lower real yields → bullish for gold.
💵 US Dollar Trends
The US Dollar Index (DXY) has weakened over the last quarter due to rate-cut bets and growing fiscal deficits.
A weaker dollar directly lifts XAU/USD since gold is priced in USD.
📈 Inflation & Recession Fears
Despite softening inflation (US CPI ~3.2%), sticky services inflation and fiscal pressures maintain gold’s appeal as a hedge.
Global growth is fragile, and recession fears (notably in Europe and Japan) have increased safe-haven demand.
🌍 Geopolitical & Structural Factors
Escalating geopolitical tensions (Eastern Europe, South China Sea, Middle East) and US election uncertainty have driven institutional and central bank gold buying.
Central banks (notably China, India, and Turkey) are diversifying away from the USD — net gold purchases are at multi-year highs.
🏦 Central Bank Gold Demand
According to the World Gold Council, 2025 central bank purchases are on pace for another record year.
This provides a floor for gold prices even during corrective phases.
📊 Fundamental Outlook Summary
Factor Current Status Gold Impact
Fed Policy / Yields Dovish bias ✅ Bullish
US Dollar Weakening ✅ Bullish
Inflation Moderate but sticky ✅ Bullish
Geopolitical Risk Elevated ✅ Bullish
Central Bank Demand Strong ✅ Bullish
Global Growth Slowing ✅ Bullish

XAUUSD: Market Analysis and Strategy for October 22Gold Technical Analysis
Daily Resistance: 4380, Support: 3900
4-Hour Resistance: 4180, Support: 4000
1-Hour Resistance: 4160, Support: 4000
Technically, gold fell by $380, temporarily halting its decline near 4000. Technical indicators are recovering, and the market is taking a brief breather. Bull markets are prone to large swings, so it's unclear whether gold has truly reversed in the short term.
Gold has tested the 4000 support level twice. Watch for the continuation of the short-term downtrend. The moving average price has broken through the upward trend line in the short term, and the indicators are in a state of recovery, but the Bollinger Bands remain upward. The 4170/4180 levels on the daily chart are key. If they are successfully recaptured, the market is poised for a strong bullish resurgence. Otherwise, the market will continue to fluctuate downwards in the short term, looking for support. Focus on the 4000 level. If it breaks below, it will continue to move towards 3900.
Looking at the 1-hour chart, the candlestick pattern has broken below the neckline of the M-shaped top. Market bearish sentiment is being released, and indicators continue to move downward rapidly. The short-term bull-bear dividing line is between 4188 and 4208. Short-term rebound momentum is limited, and the NY market remains bearish.

Trade Idea: Gold (XAU/USD)
📌 Current Price: ~ 4,098 USD (as per your chart)
📌 Bias: Bullish-on-pullback / breakout
🔍 Key Levels
Support Zone: ~ 4,060 to ~ 4,040 USD — this is the area where price has recently found buyers (your grey/green box).
Lower Support Alert: If the above fails, next meaningful support is around ~ 4,000 USD (psychological whole-number & chart memory).
Resistance Zone: ~ 4,140 to ~ 4,160 USD (your upper green line) — if price breaks above cleanly, further upside becomes more likely.
Higher Resistance Target: ~ 4,200-4,300 USD if breakout is strong.
📈 Trade Plan
Entry:
Option A: Wait for price to dip into the support zone (~ 4,060-4,040 USD) and show bullish confirmation (eg. long wick, bullish candle) → then enter long.
Option B: Enter on breakout above resistance (~ 4,140-4,160 USD) with momentum & volume.
Stop Loss:
If entering at support: Place stop slightly below ~ 4,000 USD (eg. ~ 3,990-3,980 USD).
If entering on breakout: Place stop just below breakout level, e.g. below ~ 4,120 USD.
Targets:
Near‐term: ~ 4,140-4,160 USD (if buy from support) or ~ 4,200 USD (if breakout).
Longer term: ~ 4,300-4,400 USD if momentum holds and macro supports this.
📌 Risk & Notes
Price is relatively elevated already (~ 4,098 USD) — entering now means you’re buying nearer to the highs, which adds risk.
The broader market indicators suggest gold may be somewhat overbought (so the pullback path is realistic).
Keep position size moderate and use the stop loss strictly.
Monitor macro drivers: U.S. dollar strength, interest rate signals, inflation data — gold is sensitive to those.
If support fails (drop below ~ 4,000 USD), it may trigger a deeper correction, so respect the stop.
XAU pre market updatedRighty!!!!
HUGE moments in Asia for Uncle Ling The Plug!!!! We need to settle above $4108 in Asia and sustain!!!
Super Handle remains at $3983.
If a return is made and we dip and break back above. We WILL be on road 🏦
Again, I’m hoping $4011 holds enough weight to settle that area and if so, we should be able to hold above $4108 which will break the money line $$$$ at $4150 and take us into $4190!!!
Dangers right here is the daily close. Definitely not supportive of what we are trying to achieve but if you really know gold, she can upset with “what it looks like” vs “what she needs to do”
and that’s definitely a return on $4300-$4318!!!!
Tread carefully, and let’s see what Uncle Ling has in play for his session!
(Also second profile is only valid when we can get closure above ✅)

XAUUSD ideaHello!
Many buyers get flushed in the toilet this week.
Double top and a huge pullback really fast downward.
And now, the gold is tired and need to rest.
Keylevel at 4000-4015
Gold level at fibonacci: 4048-4212
I take action when candles close above ema 50 and ema 200 on 15 min timeframe.
Are you bullish on xauusd?
Gold After last idea activated now there is a demand zone here with high volume at 4100 so if it makes MA reversal conditions of three factors they keep going and if it breaks demand would continue to the daily chart demand zone

XAUUSD LONGSA splendid head and shoulders has appeared on 1 hr chart, plus the 4 hr chart suggests a conclusion on yesterdays massive retracement.
XAUUSD – Sharp 5% Drop as Traders Take Profit Ahead of US CPIMarket Context:
Gold (XAU/USD) slumped over 5.5% on Tuesday, marking its largest daily decline in months as traders took profits ahead of the upcoming US CPI data (October 24).
The US Dollar Index (DXY) rebounded 0.36% to 98.94, making gold more expensive for foreign buyers.
This correction also coincides with renewed optimism over potential easing of US–China trade tensions, after President Trump confirmed plans to meet Chinese leader Xi Jinping next week.
While this sharp move caught many traders off guard, it appears to be a healthy correction within a broader bullish structure, as investors remain cautious before major data and the upcoming Fed policy meeting next week.
Technical Outlook (M30):
After the heavy selloff from the 4,375 high, gold found near-term support around 4,003 – 4,010, forming a potential accumulation base.
The pair now trades near 4,150, showing early signs of recovery toward key confluence zones.
Key Technical Levels:
OBS Sell Zone: 4,338 – 4,340
CP Zone Down / OBS Sell Zone: 4,259 – 4,260
CP Zone Up / OBS Buy Zone: 4,092 – 4,094
Deep Buy Zone: 4,003 – 4,008
The current structure outlines a 5-wave projection, where price may complete Wave II near 4,092, then advance toward Wave III at 4,259, followed by a correction (Wave IV) and another push toward Wave V near 4,338.
Trading Plan:
🔹 BUY ZONE#1 (Short-Term Recovery)
Entry: 4,092 – 4,094
Stop Loss: 4,080
Take Profit: 4,145 → 4,259 → 4,338
🔹 BUY ZONE #2 (Liquidity Sweep Scenario)
Entry: 4,003 – 4,008
Stop Loss: 3,990
Take Profit: 4,090 → 4,259
🔹 SELL ZONE (Countertrend Reaction)
Entry: 4,259 – 4,260
Stop Loss: 4,272
Take Profit: 4,145 → 4,092
Summary:
The recent 5% correction is viewed as a profit-taking phase ahead of CPI data, not a structural breakdown.
Gold is expected to stabilise above 4,092, with buyers likely stepping in near the OBS Buy Zone.
Focus remains on 4,259 for a short-term reaction and 4,338 as the next potential liquidity target if momentum continues.
📊 What’s your view — is this just a healthy retracement before CPI, or the start of a deeper shift?

✅ Trend Shift : Price broke the previous bullish structure — short-term bearish momentum confirmed.
🔹 Breaker Level : Previous swing high now acts as potential resistance on any retrace.

📈 Potential Move :
1. Price may drop toward the demand zone.
2. Buyers reacting here could push price back to the breaker level.
3. Reclaiming the breaker could signal continuation toward next order block: 4,300–4,350.
⚡ Key Takeaways:
Monitor the demand zone for bullish confirmations.
Breaker retest = high-probability buy setup.
Risk management is essential — structure shows a clear shift from bullish → bearish.

10.21 Gold Intraday Short-Term Trading GuideGold currently has a clear double top on its 4-hour chart, with Friday's low of 4186 acting as the neckline. If it falls below 4186, a double top will form, and the downward trend will accelerate. In the short term, it is likely to move further towards the 4100-4080 area. If it does not break through 4186, the market will rebound again.
XAUUSD: Market Analysis and Strategy for October 21stGold prices rebounded sharply yesterday, fully recovering the $200 drop from last Friday as of today's Asian time.
From a structural perspective, after the downward risk in gold is released and there's no continuation, it will face renewed pressure to challenge new highs, with 4400 likely to be reached this week. While there will be some volatility before the Fed's rate cut at the end of the month, gold's trend inertia remains. A slow rise amidst fluctuations will allow the market to gradually absorb the new buying pressure until the next imbalance between bulls and bears.
Of course, the confirmation of a double top pattern in gold is also crucial on the 4-hour chart. The MACD indicator's fast and slow lines are about to form another downward death cross. If gold fails to hold above 4300 today, yesterday's rebound will be merely a final push by buyers.
Even if gold breaks above 4400 again this week, I believe the upward trend will be short-lived, with a volatile bull-bear tug-of-war continuing to dominate the market for the foreseeable future.
The short-term bull-bear dividing line is near 4295. Today, focus on the support levels of 4245 and 4185. Buy once the price stabilizes. If it falls below 4185, it will test the support levels of 4146 and 4100.

Gold Awakens – Bulls Target the 4240 ZoneGold is showing renewed buying pressure after rebounding from recent support near 4170. Price structure remains bullish on the short-term swing outlook, with higher lows forming and momentum shifting back toward resistance levels.
Key Levels:
Buy Entry: 4195
Take Profit: 4240
Stop Loss: 4170
Reasoning:
Technically, gold has stabilized above its short-term base and reclaimed key intraday zones, signaling improving buyer sentiment. The structure suggests a potential continuation toward the next resistance at 4240, supported by momentum recovery and stronger demand near the 4170 to 4180 area.
Fundamentally, lingering geopolitical concerns and U.S. yield fluctuations continue to support gold’s safe-haven demand, keeping the bias upward in the near term.

Gold’s Record High: What’s Next?Spot gold edged lower on Tuesday after hitting fresh record levels, pressured by a recovering US dollar and improved global risk sentiment. However, the downside appears limited. Growing concerns over a potential US government shutdown and its economic impact, alongside strong market expectations for another Fed rate cut this year, continue to weigh on the dollar – providing key underlying support for gold. Additionally, persistent trade tensions and geopolitical risks reinforce gold's role as a preferred safe-haven asset. Amid these crosscurrents, the market is seeking its next clear directional catalyst.
Technically, yesterday's strong bullish candle erased the prior session's decline and pushed to new highs, confirming sustained buying interest. Still, after such a sharp move, signs of short-term exhaustion are emerging near the highs, suggesting a possible shift from the previous one-way rally to a phase of wide-range consolidation. While the extreme volatility may moderate, the risk of sudden sharp swings remains.
Trading Strategy: Favor buying on dips within the expected range rather than chasing the rally at elevated levels. Key resistance sits at 4300–4320 – a clear break above opens the next leg higher. Major support lies in the 4245–4230 zone, where a firm hold could offer a reference for establishing new long positions.
Gold Trading Strategy | October 20-21✅ 4-Hour Chart Analysis: Since rebounding from the 4186.62 low, gold has continued to strengthen, currently trading around the 4340–4350 zone and approaching the upper resistance area.
The moving averages (MA5 and MA10) have formed a golden cross, while MA20 is turning upward, indicating that the short-term trend has shifted from weak to strong. Both MA60 and MA120 remain in an upward slope, confirming that the medium-term structure is still bullish.
The Bollinger Bands show the upper band near 4369, the middle around 4265, and the lower near 4160. The price has regained the middle band and is now approaching the upper band, suggesting the market has shifted from previous consolidation to a rebound recovery phase.
If gold breaks through the 4365–4375 area, it may further test the previous high at 4379.52, and potentially challenge the 4400 level.
✅ 1-Hour Chart Analysis: After rallying from its recent low, gold has formed a clear upward channel. The upper Bollinger Band is around 4356, the middle near 4278, and the lower around 4200.
The price is trading near the upper band, showing strong short-term bullish momentum, though caution is warranted near the 4350–4370 resistance area where profit-taking may occur.
The short-term trend remains strong; however, if gold fails to break 4355–4375, it may face a mild consolidation. Key support lies around 4320–4300.
🔴 Resistance Levels: 4355–4375 / 4400
🟢 Support Levels: 4320–4300 / 4265
✅ Trading Strategy Reference:
🔰 If the price breaks and stabilizes above 4375, consider light long positions, targeting 4400–4415, with a stop loss below 4350.
🔰 If the price rebounds to 4350–4375 and faces resistance, consider taking partial profits or short-term selling opportunities.
🔰 If the price pulls back to 4320–4300 and stabilizes, consider re-entering long positions for another upward move.
📊 Gold’s overall trend remains bullish, with the short-term rebound still in progress.
The 4-hour chart indicates the medium-term bullish structure remains intact, while the 1-hour chart shows strong short-term momentum.
If gold breaks above 4375–4380 during the U.S. session, it could re-enter a strong upward trend channel; however, if it faces resistance and falls below 4320, it may return to a high-level consolidation phase.
Gold Formed TriangleGold has formed a rising triangle pattern, which typically signals a potential upside breakout. If confirmed, it could offer a $40–$50 buying opportunity today.
XAU/USD Intraday Plan | Support & Resistance to WatchGold had a strong pullback on Friday following last week’s sharp rally and is now consolidating between 4,279 and 4,227. The retracement has allowed the market to cool off after consecutive all-time highs, while buyers are still defending the First Reaction Zone (4,227–4,192).
Price remains above the MA200, maintaining the broader bullish structure, but continues to struggle reclaiming the MA50, which now acts as short-term resistance. A break above 4,279 could re-ignite bullish momentum toward 4,321 and 4,362, while a failure to hold 4,227 may invite deeper correction toward 4,151–4,117.
📌 Key levels to watch:
Resistance:
4279
4321
4362
4406
Support:
4227
4192
4151
4117
🔎 Fundamental focus:
This week’s calendar features key U.S. data releases, including Flash PMIs, Durable Goods Orders, and Consumer Sentiment, though many reports risk delay due to the ongoing government shutdown. The blackout continues to cloud market visibility and reinforce safe-haven demand for gold.
GOOD TIME TO BUYThis is the best time to buy at 4235-30 if you are not in a buy position already, and hold till it reaches 4340 area
