GOLD's New Bullish CycleWe are close to my previous price target for GOLD:
In recent weeks, Gold has captured the spotlight by surging to all-time highs, signaling a potential shift in the precious metal's market dynamics!
The breakout has garnered attention from investors, raising expectations for a new bullish cycle, with some setting a price target of $2500.
Historically, gold has been perceived as a safe-haven asset, particularly during times of economic uncertainty, geopolitical tensions, or inflation concerns.
The recent surge in gold prices suggests that investors are increasingly turning to the precious metal as a store of value and a portfolio diversifier.
The $2500 price target underscores the optimism surrounding gold's future prospects!

M15 Chart:
A comprehensive look at gold's volatile history during crisesIt is often said that gold tends to perform well during economic uncertainty and crisis. But is this really so? Let’s examine gold's volatile history before and during recessions in the past 50 years. The 1960s and 1970s were marked by many economic and geopolitical changes, including multiple crises of the British pound, the collapse of the London Gold Pool, the suspension of a gold standard, and the end of the Bretton Woods System. These events helped to reshape the global monetary system and the role of gold within it. Before U.S. President Richard Nixon's “temporary” suspension of gold’s convertibility to the U.S. dollar, gold was pegged at $35 per troy ounce and allowed to move within a certain band around this level. However, following the breakage of the peg between gold and the U.S. dollar, gold’s price soared past levels previously thought to be unattainable. Thanks to high inflation rates, the oil crisis, and the weak U.S. dollar, gold rose more than 2,300% during the 1970s, recording a 147% increase in 1979 alone.

Illustration 1.01 shows the daily chart of XAUUSD. The green background highlights gold’s performance one year before the recession began in January 1980. The yellow background indicates recession periods, as reported by the U.S. Federal Reserve.
In the first 19 days of January 1980, gold rose another 54%, hitting an all-time high of $873 per troy ounce. In the next 66 days, gold plummeted 48% to $473. From lows on 27th March 1980, gold gained over 65%, stopping at $748.50 on 22nd September 1980. After that, gold declined until 21st June 1982, erasing nearly 60% of its value before staging a temporary rally. Nevertheless, it was only two years after the recession, on 25th February 1985, that gold finally bottomed out at $282.60.

After bottoming out in 1985, gold rallied nearly 80% by mid-December 1987. But the next few years saw gold underperform and plunge 31%. The decline halted on 14th June 1990, at $348.20. Following that, gold’s price started to appreciate, rising 22% in the next two months, hitting a high of $425 on 21st August 1990. Yet, it was only a brief rally again, and gold soon reversed the trend. Gold lost more than 23% in the next three years, dropping to a low of $325.8 per troy ounce on 10th March 1993. Another three years were carried in a similar volatile manner, with gold rising nearly by one-third and then reversing and declining to merely $252.10 on 22nd August 1999.

The image above shows the daily chart of XAUUSD. The red background illustrates gold’s performance one year before the start of the recession in March 2001, and the yellow background indicates a recession period.
After soaring 35% from 1999 lows in less than two months, gold shocked precious metal investors when it reversed and began a slow decline that lasted until the start of the 2001 recession; in fact, gold nearly took out 1999 lows in early 2001. During the recession, gold had a run-up of 12% and continued to soar to new heights after its end. By the next recession hit in late 2007, gold doubled in price.

Illustration 1.04 displays the daily graph of XAUUSD. The green background shows gold’s performance one year before the start of the recession. The yellow background highlights the recession period.
From its peak in March 2008, gold lost approximately 34% until its low of $681.50 on 24th October 2008. Yet, despite this massive decline, gold bottomed out before stocks and soared more than 180% until hitting a peak in September 2011.

Gold to close above $2200 this week or next? Gold to close above $2200 this week or next?
Examining the daily gold chart, it appears there's a potential bullish flagpole pattern forming, indicating a possible forthcoming breakout. If this pattern unfolds, gold prices could rise. This week, gold attempted to breach $2,200 but faced rejection, dropping to $2,080 before rebounding above $2,190.
However, market sentiment may be turning cautious ahead of significant US economic data releases in the shortened holiday week, including the GDP Growth Rate, Core PCE Price Index, and Personal Spending. Despite this caution, if the GDP Growth Rate falls from 4.9% in the previous quarter to the expected 3.2%, it could reinforce expectations of a June rate cut by the Federal Reserve, as the market anticipates. This could potentially increase demand for gold and boost its price.
If this week's data doesn't serve as a catalyst, attention may shift to next week, with JOLTS Job Openings scheduled for Tuesday and NFP on Friday (US time), potentially providing further market insights.

XAUUSD - 1H risky Sell for scalpersGold has been consolidating just beneath the uptrend line within the ascending channel, presenting a potential scalping opportunity for those looking to sell.
However, it's important to approach this with caution;it's a riskier play, so managing your risk and position size wisely is crucial.
XAUUSD - 1H Market cyclesUnderstanding market cycles is key in financial trading, as showcased by our recent sell call on #XAUUSD.
After a bullish spike and a period of steady growth within an ascending channel, Gold entered a trading range, indicating a pause in buying momentum.
This signaled an opportune moment to execute a sell, anticipating a potential retracement from the range's upper limits.
Stay informed, as comprehension of such cycles can lead to strategic market decisions.
XAUUSD 24/3/24Gold giving us a clear bullish structure but we also reached our ATH and we know price very often reaches for liquid after an ATH is reached, this does not mean we are looking for price to shift bearish but we have to keep this in mind as always, as you can see here on the chart we have liquid lows and 4 ideas of what we think price may deliver!
Please keep in mind the liquid is sitting at our last major structure low and breaking this may very well shift us short term bearish... until we get a move keep all 4 for these ideas in mind, i am expecting a lower move and then a pull back higher into our newly created short term bearish range, we of course will keep in mind all of the highlighted ideas in mind and like always you trade what you see and not what you want to see!
XAU/USD 25-29 March 2024 Weekly OutlookWeekly Analysis:
-> Swing: Bullish.
-> Internal: Bullish.
Price has finally printed a bullish swing BOS.
Most likely scenario would be for price to pull back following swing BOS (Break Of Structure)
First structural indication, but not confirmation that pullback has initiated would be for price to print a bearish CHoCH which is denoted by a vertical blue dotted line. Price has now printed a bearish CHoCH.
Internal structure is now confirmed
Expectation is for price to react at Weekly POI's or 50% EQ, which is denoted in blue, before targeting weak internal high.

Daily Analysis:
-> Swing: Bullish.
-> Internal: Bullish.
Price has printed a swing BOS. Swing low confirmed and adjusted with swing high yet to be established.
Most likely scenario will be for price to pull back following swing BOS. First indication, but not confirmation, would be a bearish CHOCH denoted with a vertical dotted line.
Price could potentially continue to trade bullish to seek further liquidity before pullback, however, it is looking increasingly likely a pullback will be imminent as the CHoCH has been brought considerably closer.

GoldGold has shown me something surprising whilst overlooking some charts, we appear to have this huge monthly divergence in the asset when alongside the cumulative delta, now I have my doubts as this delta should be using orders for the most efficient results, but it is sure is interesting as its the only divergence I can find looking back, be interesting to here some others views on this.

HelenP. I Gold can fall to trend line and bounce up to $2185Hi folks today I'm prepared for you Gold analytics. A few moments ago price rebounded from the trend line and rose to the support zone, but when it reached this zone, XAU at once made the correction below. After this movement, the price turned around and continued to rise to the support level, which is located in the support zone, and in a short time later Gold broke the 2145 level. Next, the price made a retest and soon rose to the resistance level, which coincided with the resistance zone, but at once rebounded and started to decline. In a short time price declined to the support zone, after which it turned around and some time traded near, until it reached the trend line, and then Gold made a strong impulse up to 2220 points, thereby breaking the 2185 level. But soon, the price turned around and in a short time fell below the resistance level, breaking it one more time and making a retest. After this, XAU continued to fall, so, I think that the price will decline to the trend line, after which it will turn around and rebound up to the 2185 resistance level, which is my target also. If you like my analytics you may support me with your like/comment ❤️
Consolidation Near the PeakGold prices have entered a consolidation phase, oscillating within a narrowing range, which could be indicative of a forthcoming significant move. The Bollinger Bands on the chart are beginning to tighten, often a precursor to a breakout. Currently, prices hover just beneath the previous all-time high, suggesting that gold is testing critical levels.
The recent formation could be interpreted as a bull flag or pennant, typically a continuation pattern in a strong uptrend. Such a structure, forming right below a previous peak, could signal the onset of another bullish wave if it’s decisively breached. However, it's essential to wait for clear confirmation—a definitive close above the pattern—before considering the bullish scenario fully in play.
On the technical indicators front, the MACD sits below the baseline, pointing to lingering caution, while the RSI remains neutral, suggesting there is neither an overbought nor an oversold condition at present.
Given the proximity to the all-time high and the tightening of the Bollinger Bands, traders should stay alert to a potential breakout or breakdown. A move above the consolidation could reignite bullish sentiment, while a drop below could see a retest of lower support levels.

XAU/USD 21 March 2024 Intraday AnalysisH4 Analysis:
-> Swing: Bullish.
-> Internal: Bullish.
Gold continues it's bullish run following the Fed's dovish outlook on interest rates.
Price has printed an iBOS where we are currently trading within a fractal high and internal low.
Relative to recent price action of the swing range, I have readjusted bullish BOS to bullish iBOS.
Intraday expectation would be for price to show signs of pullback initiation, which have yet to occur, or, price could react at 50% EQ before continuing bullish to create new highs.
Another potential scenario would be for price to continue bullish from current price, create a new high which would bring the CHoCH closer to very most recent price action allowing Gold to pullback without the need to pullback so deep as current CHoCH location which is denoted in blue dotted line slightly above the internal low, is a significant distance away from current price.

Intraday expectation would be for price to indicate initiation of pullback by printing a bearish CHoCH which is denoted with blue dotted lines.
Alternatively, and much like H4, price could continue bullish to create new highs in order to bring CHOCH closer to the very most recent price action. This would Gold to initiate first structural signs of pullback without the need to significantly pull back.

More Gold Buys, YawnnnnnnOnce there is momentum in a market - you can rest assured I'd be lurking lol
When I saw gold return with its bullish momentum after all that consolidation, I was like helllssss naahh. I can't leave that alone
Thank god I didn't the trade right now is floating at just about 1:3.25
Gold is currently consolidating again either for it's next big push up or to drop to take out late buyers then then continue its push up
Either way I believe it is going to continue up, it isn't a matter of "if" for me but "when"
I will as per usual continue to hold it as it does its thing
My stop loss is also currently at break even so I'm not worried about what gold does at this moment at all

Buy XAUUSD Triangle BreakoutThe XAU/USD pair (spot gold) on the M30 timeframe presents a potential buying opportunity due to a recent upward breakout from a triangle pattern. This suggests a shift in momentum towards the upside and a higher likelihood of further advances in the coming minutes or hours.
Key Points:
Buy Entry: Consider entering a long position (buying) around the current price of 2159, positioned close to the breakout level. This offers an entry point near the perceived shift in momentum.
Target Levels: Initial bullish targets lie at the following levels:
2174: This represents the height of the triangle, measured from the apex (highest or lowest point) to the base (opposite trendline), projected upwards from the breakout point.
2182: This is achieved by adding the height of the triangle to the breakout point.
Stop-Loss: To manage risk, place a stop-loss order below the broken resistance line of the triangle, ideally around 2153. This helps limit potential losses if the price falls back unexpectedly.
Thank you
Buy XAUUSD Channel BreakoutThe XAU/USD pair (spot gold) on the M30 timeframe presents a potential buying opportunity due to a recent upward breakout from a well-defined bullish channel pattern. This suggests ongoing buying pressure and a higher likelihood of further advances in the coming minutes or hours.
Key Points:
Buy Entry: Consider entering a long position (buying) around the current price of 2161. This offers an entry point close to the breakout level, where buying pressure might be intensifying.
Target Levels: Initial bullish targets lie at the following levels:
2174: This represents the height of the channel, measured from the channel bottom (support line) to the top (resistance line), projected upwards from the breakout point.
2182: This is achieved by adding the height of the channel to the breakout point. These targets act as potential resistance zones that could see buying interest.
Stop-Loss: To manage risk, place a stop-loss order below the broken resistance line of the channel, ideally around 2153. This helps limit potential losses if the trend unexpectedly reverses.
Thank you
GOLD: Riding the Bullish Impulse on Tuesday - ScalpingGold prices saw a slight uptick on Tuesday following a corrective session on Monday that saw the price briefly touch the $2148 mark. Starting Tuesday with a bullish momentum, the price found support in certain demand areas. Our strategy involves capitalizing on this demand zone through scalping, aiming to ride a potential increase in price to the previous swing high of the market.
It's worth noting that a hawkish stance from the Federal Reserve could push XAU/USD prices towards the $2,100.00 mark, given the aggressive short positioning on the Greenback by market participants. Therefore, all eyes are on the pivotal FOMC decision scheduled for Wednesday, which is expected to drive demand for the USD and provide fresh impetus to the precious metal market.
Keep in mind that this idea is tailored for a scalping approach
