gold is at the edge of pullback if structure is correct 1->3 : number 3 closes above number 1 ,
making number 2 proven buyers
3->4 : return to proven buyers
next ?
* lower LRC extended to 3 deviation points for
potential extreme pullback
* rsi and mfi hidden bull ( continuation) + oversold
* these complex tools can be embarresingly
bad.. but schiff pitchfork with frequency
shifting catches an edge in obv indicator, alongside diagonal trendline and horizontal support line
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
GC/GOLD bull rally setupHigh potential: looking for a 60 SMA support (~3200) in 2 weeks and then continue the bull rally (green path)
Medium potential: looking for a 20 weekly SMA support (~3140) in 1 month and then continue the bull rally (cyan path)
Low potential: directly break out next week (red path), but indicators do not quite support this case, so it may need some "external news"
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
Gold Futures | New Month Setup – ATH on Deck?Price has been bullish all week with no significant pullbacks. Now as we step into a new month, Gold is pressing toward the previous All Time High (green line).
Key Notes:
Market left behind a bullish H4 FVG that could serve as a retracement zone.
With Labor Day Monday (early close for NY), setups may be quieter until Tuesday.
My bias: looking for a possible pullback into the FVG before continuation higher into fresh ATHs.
Watching closely for price action around the previous ATH to confirm breakout or rejection.

micro pattern provides structure for upward continuation 1->3 : higher high, number 2 confirmed low
4: return and pullish reaction
what do I think will happen next ?
* a return to number 4 would provide a good
rr entry with proven buyers to protect our trade
* I have bullish divergence on RSI and MFI
* vwap seems to confirm bullish sentiment with bar reacting off vwap line
* pullback pitchfork pinpoints current bar
