Daily. We have to be really careful here and make sure we don't get stuck the wrong way in a new short-term trend. As you can see on the hourly we have a triple bottom, we're also at the bottom of a long-term trend on the daily. A technical retracement is due but this is Gold we're talking about. For reference only.

We seem to be inside a descending triangle on the M30 chart. This kind of pattern is most of the time a continuation pattern which should mean the price will continue down. However, even though we can see sellers are strong in this range, they are failing to break the triangle bottom resulting in the triple bottom on the 1H timeframe.

We're keeping an eye on this, when it breaks the price is likely to move fast. Market seems to be waiting for US open and Powells speech later today. Also NFP tomorrow so there's a chance this breaks and they price in NFP before the actual numbers are released.

As always, trade safe.

15M. If you remember, the last time we spoke about triangles we said they tend to give false signals in the first instance, they'll break one way then go the opposite. We've broken up and price is trying to break back in. Lets see if it tests the bottom again.

This could also be the retest of the break, candle closes in 2mins

As you're aware, we don't give signals, only share trade ideas and analysis. We will always give clues though, they're all in the messages, you just need to read through them. If you were scalping today that was a perfect trade.

Gold is trying to break 1700

Please read the message.

DXY Target reached. It took its sweet time but finally its filled the gap

We have NFP this afternoon so we will remain neutral for now. The chart isn't suggesting any bullishness as yet so we'll wait for the numbers to get released and then decide what we're going to do. We'll share a chart with our thoughts in about an hour. If a high probability trade presents itself we'll also share that. If you're not in any positions at the moment its advisable to remain that way until after NFP and the market has settled.

This is where we stand at the moment. We don't think Gold is done with the flush as yet. Next week we may turn bullish short-term but we have a target lower down which also coincides with the potential 1H trend its in. Lets see where we close today.

We didn't trade today, we'll wait until Monday before getting back into the markets.

Wishing everyone a great weekend. See you on Sunday for our weekly overview and charts.

As always, trade safe.

As we’ve previously said, this stopped being a bullflag a long time ago. The trend goes back to the beginning of the last bull run. Traders will all have different interpretations of the chart and its trend, supply/demand etc, this is just our view.
We’ve broken out of the previous trendline which was retested and confirmed the bull trend in March 2020.

I would expect there to be some for or retracement over the coming days. A lot of buyers will have come in to buy the dip again last week so we may see a spike down to trigger some stops.
We’ve extended the downtrend line to show we are still in the trend, however, we have a confirmed weekly close and market open below the uptrend support which could possible now become resistance.
A retest is very likely so a good target for longs.

Support:
1685
1655-50
1645

Resistance:
1705
1720
1745-50

The reason for the boxes. Its not often you get 3 black crows on a weekly chart. Previously it was November 2020 where we formed the candlestick pattern.

As we analysed on the weekly chart, there is still room to go lower before we go higher to fulfil the retracement we’re looking for.
For this reason, on opening we will remain neutral in the markets until we have a confirmed setup on the lower timeframes for a trade.
It wouldn’t surprise us to see a glitch on opening due to the news release, as always it should respect the technical levels.

We have a level on this chart that sticks out which is situated at 1748 and a lower level 1675-1667.

Support:
1675
1664-66
1640

Resistance:
1721
1730
1745-50

We had a minor move out of the short term trend and then back in for the continuation. This chart is also showing we have room to go lower before the market attempts higher pricing on Gold .

As suggested on our previous chart, we may get a glitch on opening leaving a gap. Opening higher and leaving a gap below will be something to look out for, giving us an opportunity to target the lower levels.
Our Hourly chart will give us a better indication of short-term direction which we will look at on opening and over the course of the day.

As present we’re not in any trades, we have a good run from the 1900 level and we closed 90% of our shorts at 1750 which was our target over the last few months.

We’ll day trade when the opportunity arises but our view remains bearish for now.

Support:

1685
1660
1647

Resistance:

1708
1717-20
1737-41
1750-60

We'll wait for market open before we get in to any trades. See you tomorrow. Wishing everyone a successful week ahead.

Market open. Glitch up is just what we wanted to see. See you in the morning

Key level here. We're still within the 4H trend.

Support has been broken. What we're looking for now....If this closes above and the starts supporting again at this level we're looking for this to go up and test the 1708-10 level again. Its Monday and the market will try to throw traders around getting them stuck in positions for the week. We're only scalping today which works well in these markets.
