In my commentary yesterday, I highlighted the importance of the 3360 support zone. While Gold initially found a bid around this level, the sharp reversal from the 3415 Asian session high suggests a failed breakout. Key Observations: • The quick rejection above 3360 now looks like a false break, reinforcing the bearish outlook. • The recent high around 3415...

Unlike the wild volatility in Gold, EURUSD has been relatively calm over the past two weeks. After a sharp spike above 1.1500, reaching a high near 1.1570, the pair corrected and settled into a tight consolidation, fluctuating within just 1%. Current Setup: • Price recently reversed from the 1.1280 support and is now pushing towards the 1.1420...

Gold remains extremely volatile. After finding support around 3200 at the beginning of the month, the price surged nearly 2500 pips within just three trading days, reaching above 3400. Currently, the price has pulled back and has tested the 3360 zone over night– a former resistance turned support. Two Scenarios to Watch: - Bullish Case: If 3360 holds, bulls...

Last week was a strong one for Gold bears, with price dropping sharply and reaching a low near the 3200 mark. A normal recovery followed, but the bounce is now facing pressure below the 3270 level – a former support that has now turned into resistance. Current price action is forming a bear flag, a classic continuation pattern. If we get a break back below 3250,...

Yesterday was a great day for Gold bears – just as anticipated, price dropped nearly 1,000 pips and hit my target zone around 3200. After such a strong move, we’re now seeing a typical rebound, which might offer a fresh opportunity to sell into strength and ride the prevailing trend. 🔍 Key Zone: - 3270 now acts as resistance. - If price stalls here, it’s the...

Like most of the market, EURUSD reacted strongly on April 22–23 with a sharp move down. Since then, price has entered a consolidation phase — and thIS pause has now taken the shape of a bear flag, a classic continuation pattern that often leads to further correction once confirmed. 📉 Key levels to watch: 1.1350 – Initial trigger for the flag break 1.1300 –...

Two days ago, TRADENATION:GBPUSD did what it often does – spiked above the previous high with no solid fundamental reason, likely just to hunt stops. This return into the resistance zone might look bullish on the surface, but the bigger picture remains unchanged. Has the market really resumed its up move, or was this just a trap? Despite the upward push,...

Since Monday, I’ve been saying that Gold hasn’t finished correcting, and the price action is now confirming that view. The drop continued with breaks below two key levels: the 3300 figure and the 3270 support, which was the recent low. After some sideways action (a bit of a limbo), we finally got the clean breakdown. At the time of writing, price sits at 3248,...

Last week, XAGUSD managed to break above the 33.15 resistance level, making a local high at 33.70. However, the price quickly reversed and formed an Evening Star candlestick pattern, signaling selling pressure. At the time of writing, the price is hovering around 33.00 – a key pivot point for the next move. The bias leans toward a downside continuation: - A...

After the steep drop to 16,300, NAS100 started to recover, forming a higher low and managing to break back above the falling trendline drawn from the all-time high (ATH). While these are positive developments, in my opinion, the trend is likely to reverse to the downside soon. Technically, the index is now entering a heavy resistance zone, marked by: • The golden...

Yesterday, I highlighted that the 3280 support zone looked fragile and warned of a potential breakdown. However, once New York opened, bulls stepped in aggressively, pushing Gold above Friday’s close and triggering my stop loss along the way. Key Question: Has the bullish momentum changed the bigger picture? Why I Still Expect a Drop: - Despite yesterday's...

After the explosive rally that pushed Gold up to the 3500 area, the market quickly reversed with a sharp sell-off on April 22–23, dropping almost 2500 pips. Since then, price has entered a consolidation phase. Initially, the range was between 3270 and 3370, but since yesterday, the range has started to tighten — a classic sign that a breakout is...

A few days ago, I mentioned that GBPJPY could rise and test the 195.00 handle – and that idea still stands. After pushing up to 191.75, the pair began to correct, which might be just what we needed: a chance to enter a long trade at better levels. Is this correction a healthy pullback before resumption of the up move? For now, it looks like a typical...

When you look back at the greatest trading opportunities in history, they all seem to share a common element: fear. Yet, when you're in the moment, it feels almost impossible to pull the trigger. Why? Because fear paralyzes, while euphoria seduces. If you want to truly evolve as a trader, you need to master this fundamental shift: buy fear, not euphoria. Let's...

After breaking below the key psychological level at 100 and making a low just under 98, the Dollar Index ( TVC:DXY ) has entered a consolidation phase. Over the past three weeks, price has developed an inverted head and shoulders pattern, with the neckline perfectly aligning with the horizontal resistance at 100 — a strong zone of confluence from both a...

After the drop to 0.8250 — a level not touched since 2022 — EURGBP rebounded to 0.8450 before starting another decline. However, the 0.8250 support held firm once again, a higher low follow, and EURGBP eventually broke above 0.8450, confirming a double bottom pattern. Price acceleration quickly took the pair above 0.8700, and now EURGBP is undergoing a normal...

Last week was extremely volatile for Gold, with incredible swings that caught many traders off-guard. After reaching a new all-time high at 3500, the price dropped by more than 2000 pips in less than 24 hours! After this crash, the market settled somewhat, and towards the end of the week, Gold established a strong ceiling around 3370 – exactly as we discussed in...
