a daily price action after hour update - goldGood evening and i hope you are well. Gold Quote from my weekly post: short term: Neutral. Bulls could break above 2200 again and bears could also break below 2140. bull case: Market seems bullish enough for 2220 test again and i think it this time it will break again for retest 2247. I’d be surprised if we get big sell volume around 2220 again. Market is forming multiple triangles but where are obviously still above many many bull trend lines and bears just not doing enough. bear case: Not much going on for them. I don’t know how strongly 2220 will be sold again but market is going a third time there and bears could also just step aside and trying to short again higher. Looking for longs is the much butter play overall for gold in the current environment. short term: Bullish. Invalid below 2200 but i think we retest 2247 soon. medium-long term: very high probability of reaching 2300 and there i will look how the market behaves. We could be entering the equities off and commodities on cycle. Very long term Gold was nowhere near equities and that’s why betting on gold entering a bullish cycle to 3000/4000 is very low probability. Higher probability is betting on a higher high here inside a big trading range 1700 - 2200 and we will trade down over the next months. I would not enter long term positions here. —unchanged, need more time at this level or breakout to change my outlook.

Gold Increasing Value? Gap after a trading rangeFirst about Gold, we can see that after the price crossed the upper line of the bollinger band, the price entered in a trading range, and also after a doji Gold got a opening above 1% from the close. After a bearish candle, the Bulls gained strength again and didn't went lower than the bearish candle on 22nd March. Today, the opening price was at the price of yesterday's high. The ADX is showing us some strength, followed by the DMI+ and the DMI- is decreasing. To compare with the US Dollar Index, we see a resistance (purple line), it's a difficult area to be crossed, that can be translated by some weaknes of the US Dollar

Gold starts to outperform StocksThis week, with its fresh breakout gold has started outperforming cnx500. This is generally a period of subdued returns in the stock market as big money could have shifted to gold as a hedge against inflation or upcoming correction in the markets. We need gold to consolidate at current levels and fall down for a retest of its breakout levels. which should happen soon. until then we may expect lower returns from equities and the indices could go into a consolidation mode. Its not the time to be aggressive in the market, the market will make a fakeout to the top and then fall down. We will closely monitor for such a scenario.

Gold Futures Intraday Outlook: Navigating the DowntrendAnalyzing the 30-minute chart for Gold Futures (GC), we see a market that’s currently wrestling with bearish sentiment, as indicated by the recent downtrend. **Trendline Pressure:** The chart shows a prominent descending trendline that has been acting as dynamic resistance. The price is consistently making lower highs, which aligns with bearish momentum. For bulls to take control, we would need to see a convincing break above this trendline. **Fibonacci Retracement Levels:** Several key Fibonacci retracement levels are marked, with the price just below the 0.382 level at 2179.7. This is a crucial juncture as it aligns with the recent lows. The 0.5 level at 2186.3 and the 0.618 level at 2192.9 above it may serve as potential resistance areas if the price retraces from its current levels. **Bearish Continuation Pattern:** In the short term, the price is consolidating just below the 0.382 Fibonacci level. This consolidation could be a pause in the downtrend, potentially leading to a continuation of the bearish move. The blue arrow indicates a possible scenario where the price may break below the consolidation area and continue to fall towards the lower green support zone around 2152.4. **Volume Indicators:** The volume bars show relatively low activity during the latest candles, which might suggest a lack of conviction in the current price movement. An increase in volume would be needed to confirm a breakout or breakdown out of the current price range. **Looking Ahead:** Traders should monitor the price action around the current consolidation zone for cues. A break above could see the price move up to test the descending trendline or the Fibonacci levels. A breakdown below could see the price head towards the lower support zone. As always, it's vital to consider external factors such as market news and economic data releases that can impact gold prices significantly.

Gold Futures 1-Hour Technical AnalysisIn our latest technical assessment, we delve into the one-hour chart of Gold Futures (GC) to discern the short-term trajectory dictated by technical patterns and key levels. Current Positioning and Key Levels:As of the most recent trading session, Gold Futures are hovering around a delicate equilibrium, with the price stabilizing near $2166.5. This pivotal juncture serves as a temporary support, one that traders are watching closely for signs of either consolidation or breakdown. Upside resistance is found at approximately $2181.5, a barrier that bulls will need to overcome to signal a shift in momentum. The Supply/Demand Landscape:The technical landscape is demarcated by discernible supply and demand zones, with the blue shaded area beneath the current price potentially signifying a well of demand. Historically, this zone has summoned buyers to the fore, buttressing prices. Whether history will repeat itself as the price approaches this territory remains a focal point for observers. Trendline Tales:Our chart is bisected by a series of descending trendlines, narrating a tale of bearish undertones in recent trading periods. These lines have thus far capped upward movement, reinforcing the downward pressure. A breach above these trendlines could signal a reversal of fortunes, an event watched by those keen on catching the early waves of a potential uptrend. Candlestick Conundrums:The candlestick formation presents a quandary, characterized by small bodies and long wicks. This pattern speaks to a market in indecision, with neither bears nor bulls taking a definitive stand. Such a standoff typically precedes a significant move, as market forces accumulate energy for the next leg of their journey. Volume’s Verdict:Analyzing the volume profile reveals a mixed bag of buying and selling, with no clear victor in the tug-of-war. This balance could tip at any moment, and volume will be a key indicator to watch for an impending breakout or breakdown. In Summary:In the realm of Gold Futures, the battle lines are drawn at $2166.5, with any movement off this mark likely to set the tone for future sessions. A steadfast hold or a breach will be telling, offering clues to the market’s next directional impulse. Keep a keen eye on the interaction between price and trendlines, as this will illuminate the path forward. As always, we advise traders to keep abreast of global economic indicators and geopolitical events, as these could abruptly shift the technical landscape.

Amidst this volatility, various technical indicators and option activity suggest potential shifts in market sentiment. This article aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of recent developments in the gold market, incorporating both fundamental factors and technical analysis to offer insights for traders and investors. Option Activity: A notable observation in the gold market is the call option writing at the 66,000 INR levels, indicating a significant resistance level. Conversely, put option writing has been witnessed at the 64,000 INR levels, suggesting a supportive stance. Option activity often reflects the sentiments of market participants and can provide valuable insights into potential price movements. Technical Analysis: 1. Support and Resistance Levels : - Gold has established a support level at 65,200 INR, indicating a level where buying interest may increase. - On the other hand, resistance levels are seen between 66,000 to 66,500 INR, where selling pressure may intensify. 2.

While option writing at key levels suggests potential price barriers, RSI divergence and the appearance of a doji candlestick pattern indicate a possible reversal in sentiment.

a daily price action after hour update - goldGood evening and i hope you are well. Markets want green across the board and that means acceptance. Bears can’t deny it because they are not doing anything to stop this so higher prices are the higher probability here, no matter how overbought everything is. The only possibility i can dream up currently is that this quarter was so utterly overbought, that we could see profit taking into end of quarter and that could hit many profit taking stops along the way but that is so far fetched right now. But then again, so is this rally. Gold bull case: 67 points made on Wednesday, that’s something you don’t see that often in gold. Today was bigger profit taking but market did a perfect breakout retest and bulls bought it. You could draw a triangle here and a 50% pullback of the Wednesday move is pretty much the middle of it. Close is close enough for markets. Means market is in breakout mode for new direction. Anything above 2200 is not accepted and sold but bears could not reverse the breakout. Will see tomorrow where this is heading next. bear case: Bears got a perfect retest of yesterdays breakout and bulls bought it. Not good for the bears. I mentioned market is in breakout mode and bears can only dream of trading below 2150 again. As long as bull trend lines hold and market trades above the daily 20ema which is around 2150, this is bullish. short term: Neutral here - want to see the triangle play out and get a clear breakout to either side with follow through. Can’t really see that happening tomorrow but i’m open to the possibility. Range 2160 - 2200 medium-long term: Very high probability of reaching 2300 and there i will look how the market behaves. We could be entering the equities off and commodities on cycle. Very long term Gold was nowhere near equities and that’s why betting on gold entering a bullish cycle to 3000/4000 is very low probability. Higher probability is betting on a higher high here inside a big trading range 1700 - 2200 and we will trade down over the next months. I would not enter long term positions here. — unchanged trade of the day: 7 1h candles with wicks above 2210. Markets only try one thing so often until they try something different. Obvious short Bar 10 as it formed. Bar 12 had a big enough tail to set the stop 1 tick above it.

Mitigation of 4Hr Supply then Sellers Tank the market SHORT...?COMEX:GC1! The game of Probability we ohhh sooo Luvvv to participate in.... I have developed another narrative for the HOUSE to CAPITALIZE ON...Vibe w/me Here's what I'll need to see in order for me to catch this SHORT ON GOLD for the 2nd time ahaha....the 1st execution I guess you could say was premature... Now here we are again! 1) I want to see buyers push price up into this HTF 4Hr supply zone above and mitigate price around($2171.5).... ***This will be our 1st confirmation that we need. 2) If and when buyers mitigate the 4Hr supply above I want sellers to enter the market and create a LTF 15m CHoCh in price, which would indicate a shift in hands...However this is still not enough to enter Short just because we see this change...***KEYNOTE; this will be our 2nd confirmation that we need, a LTF 15m CHoCh in price to the downside... 3) On the 4Hr we can clearly see rii below the Weekly Support level Buyers have created EQL's ($2156.5) which is another Major reason why I believe this market is preparing to go SHORT... If and when we can see these 2 sequences I stated above in price to happen, I then would need sellers to push price of GOLD DOWN & BREAK/CLOSE underneath the Weekly Support Level ($2160.00) on the 1Hr TF down (As true SELLERS CONVICTION) and then push to purge the liquidity the EQL's have created below ($2156.5)...***This will be our 3rd & 4th Confirmation we need to see before we place our limit SHORT... 4) Now remember IF and when we can get these sequence of events to play out in PA then the HOUSE will be compelled to sell the retest of the Weekly Support that failed ($2160.00) and target the next major unmitigated 4Hr Demand Zone below (2139.5)...***The Biggest Key factor I need to see is the 1Hr candle close underneath the Weekly Support level of ($2160.00) and price trading underneath the RED V-Wap, then I will be ready to enter Short cover the HIGH for my stop & set my Target... This move will be roughly around 205 pts in which we can easily catch a solid +2.5-3R % Gain Depending on your management system... Remember nothing in the market is set in Stone, WE play the long-term game of probabilities...With that being said, now we just Sit back N stalk like the Saltwater CROC!! Remain Patient & let the set up come rii to us...Trade our system as Professionals... Nothing Less, We aim for EXCELLENCE!!! Stay on point!! #BHM500K #NewERA

Options Blueprint Series Strangles vs. StraddlesIntroduction In the realm of options trading, the choice of strategy significantly impacts the trader's ability to navigate market uncertainties. Among the plethora of strategies, the Strangle holds a unique position, offering flexibility in unclear market conditions without the upfront costs associated with more conventional approaches like the Straddle. This article delves into the intricacies of the Strangle strategy, emphasizing its application in the volatile world of Gold Futures trading. For traders seeking a foundation in the Straddle strategy, refer to our earlier discussion in "Options Blueprint Series: Straddle Your Way Through The Unknown" - In-Depth Look at the Strangle Strategy The Strangle strategy involves purchasing a call option and a put option with the same expiration date but different strike prices. Typically, the call strike price is higher than the current market price, while the put strike price is lower. This approach is designed for situations where a significant price movement is anticipated, but the direction of the movement is uncertain. It's particularly effective in markets prone to sudden swings, making it a valuable strategy for Gold Futures traders who face volatile market conditions. Advantages of the Strangle strategy include its lower upfront cost compared to the Straddle strategy, as options are bought out-of-the-money (OTM). This aspect makes it a more accessible strategy for traders with budget constraints. The potential for unlimited profits, should the market make a strong move in either direction, further adds to its appeal. However, the risks include the total loss of the premium paid if the market does not move significantly and both options expire worthless. Therefore, timing and market analysis are critical when implementing a Strangle in the gold market. Example: Consider a scenario where Gold Futures are trading at $1,800 per ounce. Anticipating volatility, a trader might purchase a call option with a strike price of $1,820 and a put option with a strike price of $1,780. If gold prices swing widely enough in either direction, the strategy could yield substantial profits. Strangle vs. Straddle: Understanding the Key Differences The Strangle and Straddle strategies are both designed to capitalize on market volatility, yet they differ significantly in execution and ideal market conditions. While the Straddle strategy involves buying a call and put option at the same strike price, the Strangle strategy opts for different strike prices. This fundamental difference impacts their cost, risk, and potential return. Cost Implications: The Strangle strategy is generally less expensive than the Straddle due to the use of out-of-the-money options. This lower initial investment makes the Strangle appealing to traders with tighter budget constraints or those looking to manage risk more conservatively. Risk Exposure and Profit Potential: Although both strategies offer unlimited profit potential, the Strangle requires a more significant price move to reach profitability due to its out-of-the-money positions. Consequently, the risk of total premium loss is higher with Strangles if the anticipated volatility does not materialize to a sufficient degree. Market Conditions: Straddles are best suited for markets where significant price movement is expected but without clear directional bias. Strangles, given their lower cost, might be preferred in situations where substantial volatility is anticipated but with a slightly lower conviction level, allowing for larger market moves before profitability. In the context of Gold Futures and Micro Gold Futures, traders might lean towards a Strangle strategy when expecting major market events or economic releases that could induce significant gold price fluctuations. The choice between a Strangle and a Straddle often comes down to the trader's market outlook, risk tolerance, and cost considerations. Application to Gold Futures and Micro Gold Futures Implementing a Strangle in the Gold Futures market requires a keen understanding of underlying market conditions and volatility. Given the precious metal's sensitivity to global economic indicators, political instability, and changes in demand, traders can leverage the Strangle strategy to capitalize on expected price swings without committing to a directional bet. When applying a Strangle to Gold Futures, selecting the appropriate strike prices becomes crucial. The goal is to position the OTM options in a way that balances the potential for significant price movements with the cost of premiums paid. This balance is critical in scenarios like central bank announcements or inflation reports, where gold prices can experience sharp movements, offering the potential for Strangle strategies to flourish. Long Straddle Trade-Example Underlying Asset: Gold Futures or Micro Gold Futures (Symbol: GC1! or MGC1!) Strategy Components: Buy Put Option: Strike Price 2275 Buy Call Option: Strike Price 2050 Net Premium Paid: 11.5 points = $1,150 ($115 with Micros) Micro Contracts: Using MGC1! (Micro Gold Futures) reduces the exposure by 10 times Maximum Profit: Unlimited Maximum Loss: Net Premium paid Risk Management Effective risk management is paramount when employing options strategies like the Strangle, especially within the volatile realms of Gold Futures and Micro Gold Futures trading. Traders should be acutely aware of the expiration dates and the time decay (theta) of options, which can erode the potential profitability of a Strangle strategy as the expiration date approaches without significant price movement in the underlying asset. To mitigate such risks, it's common to set clear criteria for adjusting or exiting the positions. This could involve rolling out the options to a further expiration date or closing the position to limit losses once certain thresholds are met. Additionally, the use of stop-loss orders or protective puts/calls as part of a broader trading plan can provide a safety net against unforeseen market reversals. Such techniques ensure that losses are capped at a predetermined level, allowing traders to preserve capital for future opportunities. Conclusion The Strangle and Straddle strategies each offer unique advantages for traders navigating the Gold Futures market's uncertainties. By understanding the distinct characteristics and application scenarios of each, traders can make informed decisions tailored to their market outlook and risk tolerance. While the Strangle strategy offers a cost-effective means to leverage expected volatility, it also necessitates a disciplined approach to risk management and an acute understanding of market dynamics.   When charting futures, the data provided could be delayed.

It seems gold's time to fall has arrived !!!In the 1-hour time frame, we can currently see that gold has formed a higher low in a descending triangle pattern, which tends to indicate that the price could fall to the support level within the rectangle, which is the support level according to the 99-period moving average in the daily time frame. If it breaks below the upper resistance at the polarity point, it could drop further. On the volume side, we can clearly see heavy selling volumes, while at the support levels, the buying volumes are lower, signaling that the price has the potential to shift from an uptrend to a downtrend. The volume profile at support and resistance levels suggests gold may be transitioning from an uptrend to a downtrend based on the technical evidence.
