buyers are being setup for a trap , it seems obvious but dontmy theory for gold sells *I was initially bullish until I noticed a few tricky things * structure number 2 is not a solid low, meaning they have not proven themselves to be stronger than number 1 sellers, because they have not created a push above them, so this low is misleading and not a proper stop * obv is in a downtrend while price is in an uptrend, obv in downtrend means that there is an increased selling interest , so this diverging from price going up can only mean .... there are no buyers and price is not going up due to a huge amount of buying power but the sellers are not pushing too hard in specific areas * the 3 support lines are not solid support, in fact they are all wicks and 'fake lows' * I dont have a solid stop to enter a short, but all these things + divergence on rsi and mfi is just telling me that the obvious buy trade might be a trap

Intraday Bearish Narrative – London Session (Gold Futures)Gold opened the London session under clear downside pressure, extending weakness from the prior U.S. session. After a strong rally into the 3619–3620 area, sellers regained control, forming lower highs and pressing price below the descending trendline (red dashed). During London hours, attempts to recover above 3600–3606 failed, reinforcing the bearish bias. The current setup aligns with a sell-on-rally structure: price has retested the broken trendline and prior support-turned-resistance zone near 3610–3613, where sellers defended strongly. As long as price holds below 3613, the bearish structure remains intact, with intraday downside targets layered at: 3593.5 (nearest support, minor liquidity pocket) 3569–3566 (London extension target, key demand zone) 3550–3548 (deeper measured move target if momentum accelerates). Stops are well-placed above 3610–3613, invalidating the setup if buyers reclaim this supply zone. 📉 Bias: Bearish intraday continuation, favoring shorts beneath 3610–3613 with room for multiple downside liquidity sweeps into the mid-3500s.

return to proven sellers presents sell continuation could not post on time due to 10 post per day limit. I entered as per the drawing tool visualization. 1->3 : creates a lower low , number 2 are dominant sellers 3->4: we see a solid buying pressure coming to meet our sellers who have pushed the market below the previous attempt to push up at number 1 what next ? * a break below support / micro bull turn point with stop above number 2 would look safe * from number 2->4 I have a 2nd degree bearish divergence * increasing volitility and sideways movemnet as market prepares to open and perhaps pick a direction * vwap 1st standard deviation from number 1 *extreme of peak #2 might align with vwap and vpoc , perhaps a sell stop when price reaches there ... which it might when volume picks up *despite price going up, staying under obv trendline showing selling interest *micro bear pattern wanted

Gold Holding Asian 50% -- Bulls Gearing up for London Push?Price retraced cleanly to the Asian session 50% midpoint after yesterday’s strong rally. With the London Killzone approaching, I’m watching for bullish confirmation and a potential continuation higher. Macro backdrop adds fuel: Markets are pricing a 90% chance of a September Fed rate cut. JPMorgan now forecasting four cuts starting this month, reinforcing bullish momentum in Gold. ⚠️ Holiday liquidity could create sharp stop-hunts, so confirmation is key. Looking for orderflow strength before stepping in.

a return to microstructure provides a continuation opportunity 1->3 : creates a higher high , with number 2 buyers showing superior volume with respect to number 1 sellers 3->4 : we return to the genesis of the local scope uptrend continuation what do I think will happen next ? * obv is in a solid uptrend showing continued buying pressure * vwap provides a rejection / support point at the number 2 low using a lower pivot to anchor * price has no great reason to come back above the volume cluster here if selling is the point * hidden bullish pressure on rsi and mfi on the lower fracal structure

No CommentGold futures (GC) are currently exhibiting a classic consolidation pattern on the daily timeframe, specifically a contracting triangle. This formation, identified as a standard a-b-c-d-e Elliott Wave sequence, is functioning as a continuation pattern following the strong uptrend observed from Q1 to Q2 2025. The accompanying decline in trading volume throughout the pattern's development reinforces the validity of this consolidation phase, suggesting that market energy is accumulating for a significant directional move. Key Levels to Monitor: Confirmation (Trigger): A decisive daily close above the key resistance zone of $3,525. This breakout should ideally be supported by a surge in volume. Price Target: A successful breakout projects an initial, measured target in the $3,900 - $3,950 range. Invalidation: The bullish thesis would be invalidated upon a breakdown below the pattern's lower trendline support, specifically a close below the wave 'e' low at approximately $3,400. From a macroeconomic perspective, this technical setup is highly sensitive to upcoming economic data. A catalyst in the form of weaker-than-expected labor or inflation figures could accelerate the anticipated bullish breakout.

Gold Futures (GC1! | Daily Analysis)📊 Gold Futures (GC1! | Daily Analysis) Gold is consolidating within a tight wedge structure, testing the equilibrium zone near $3,390. 🔑 Key Observations: Premium Zone rejected near $3,520, aligning with recent swing highs. Price is now retesting trendline support + equilibrium zone (~$3,320–3,390). Volume profile shows distribution spikes suggesting strong participation but indecision. A clean break below equilibrium could target discount zone near $3,160. Holding above support may invite another test of premium liquidity above $3,500. ⚖️ Outlook: Gold sits at a critical decision point. Bullish case: Hold equilibrium → push back toward $3,520. Bearish case: Break and close below $3,320 → liquidity sweep into $3,160. 🕵️‍♂️ Watch how price reacts at this wedge support; it will define the next leg. #Gold #Futures #SMC #Trading #WaverVanir

Gold at Resistance ! Next move will decide trend.Daily Chart Update – Gold1! Gold is currently forming a rising wedge pattern, with resistance near the sell zone of 103550–103700. The metal is also trading within a well-defined ascending parallel channel, where the channel resistance aligns with the first selling level around 10500. On a percentage basis, after a 5–6% upward move, gold has reached the key levels of 104700–10500. If these resistance levels hold, we may witness a potential decline in prices. Accordingly, positions can be shifted, and selling opportunities may be considered in line with both the pattern formation and the overall market structure. Conclusion: According to the pattern and overall structure, 103500 is the first selling zone, while further resistance lies at 104700–10500. Sustaining below these levels could open the way for lower prices.
