Gold falls after FED news, cautious buying powerWorld gold prices retreated to $3,370/ounce, down more than $25 from last night's peak. The H4 chart shows a sharp decline that broke through the EMA34, currently testing the EMA89 - a signal that profit-taking pressure is increasing after the previous strong bounce. The FED kept interest rates unchanged in the 4.25% - 4.5% range, as expected. However, Chairman Jerome Powell's "wait and see" statement made investors pause buying gold due to concerns that prolonged high interest rates will continue to put pressure on non-yielding assets like gold. In addition, the rise in international stocks and China's money pumping policy have reduced the attractiveness of this safe haven.

Gold Breaks Support Level – The Downtrend May Not StopAfter peaking at $3,500/ounce in April, gold is in a clear correction phase. On the H4 chart, the price has broken through both the EMA34 and EMA89, indicating that a short-term downtrend has been established. The most recent session closed at $3,223, losing nearly $130 in just a few sessions. The sharp decline appeared after a long rally and the peak was rejected many times. The break through the EMA89 support has triggered technical selling pressure, reflecting the psychology of profit-taking after failing to surpass the old peak.

Gold surges thanks to China buying goods, waiting for FED waveInternational gold prices jumped to 3,332 USD/ounce, up more than 72 USD compared to the bottom of last night's session. The main driving force came from the wave of gold buying in China, when concerns about the weakening economy caused people to massively turn to gold as a safe haven. The H4 chart shows a strong increase, EMA34 has crossed EMA89, establishing a clear short-term uptrend. If gold surpasses 3,340 USD, it is likely to head towards the old peak around 3,420–3,500 USD. Crude oil prices are still fluctuating strongly around 57.2 USD/barrel, creating an unstable foundation for the commodity market. The FED will announce its policy in the early morning of May 8. Although it is expected to not change interest rates, any statement can move the market. This will be the next big catalyst for gold.

Gold price suddenly accelerates, approaching the 3,300 USD/ounceAfter two consecutive weeks of decline, the world gold price is showing strong signs of recovery when it skyrocketed to 3,266 USD/ounce - an increase of 25 USD in just one session. Although still quite far from the peak of 3,500 USD/ounce, the increase this morning shows that investor sentiment has begun to change direction. The increase occurred at the beginning of the session despite previous negative forecasts, reflecting the sensitivity of gold to geopolitical and economic information such as US-China trade negotiations or the strength of the USD. The daily chart shows that gold has bounced strongly from the EMA34 support zone and returned to the resistance zone around 3,320–3,340 USD, opening up an opportunity to retest the 3,400 USD mark if the current increase is maintained.

Gold recovers after deep fallWorld gold prices recovered to 3,238 USD/ounce on the morning of May 2 after hitting a bottom of 3,205 USD/ounce last night. The reason came from the sell-off when the Chinese market was on a long holiday, causing a lack of physical buying power. However, investors quickly took advantage of this opportunity to buy, amid expectations that the FED would lower interest rates and central banks would continue to collect gold as a safe haven asset. The 4-hour chart shows that the price has bounced back from EMA89, heading towards the EMA34 resistance zone - a positive sign for a short-term recovery.

Gold continues to lose value, pressured by USD and China dataWorld gold prices fell to $3,279/ounce, down $31 from the previous session's peak. The USD increased slightly along with the decline of crude oil and US stocks, making gold less attractive. In addition, weak economic data from China raised concerns about falling physical gold demand - contributing to the price decline. On the daily chart, gold is falling from the peak, approaching the EMA34, warning of the risk of a deeper correction if it fails to hold this support level.

Gold weakens under pressure from USD and bonds On the morning of April 30, the world gold price fell to 3,318 USD/ounce, down 20 USD compared to the same time the previous day. The strong increase in USD and high US bond yields at 4.23% made gold lose its appeal in the eyes of investors. The recovery of US stocks and the decline in oil prices further depressed market sentiment. On the H4 chart, gold has not yet escaped the sideways zone around EMA34 - a sign that buying power is weakening.

Gold forms a top patternOn the H4 chart, the gold price chart is forming a clear bearish structure after forming a three-peak pattern in a row around the $3,435–$3,470 range. Each time the price touches this range, it is strongly rejected, indicating that selling pressure controls the market. The fact that the price cannot maintain above the EMA34 and EMA9 at the same time is also a sign of confirmation of a weakening trend in the short term. Although gold recovered slightly to the $3,365 range in the Asian session on April 25 thanks to news of PBOC money injection and a weakening USD, the buying pressure was not enough to break the bearish structure. The price quickly reversed and fell below the $3,300 mark, confirming the possibility of further correction in the near future. Currently, the price has cut below the two EMAs and broken the nearest bottom at $3,290, triggering a bearish signal according to the “small head and shoulders” pattern on the H4. The next target is the strong support zone of $3,180–$3,220. If this zone is broken, the correction trend may extend deeper to the $3,100 area. The appropriate short-term strategy at this time is to wait for the price to retrace to the $3,310–$3,330 area, cut losses above $3,350 and take profits around $3,200. The bullish scenario will only happen if the price breaks above $3,370 and closes above the old resistance – then the bearish structure will be broken.

Gold falls below $3,300International gold prices are currently trading around $3,290/ounce, down $40 from last week and far from the record high of $3,500. The bearish structure still prevails as gold is below the EMA34 and EMA89, while failing many times to regain the $3,300 mark. Strong profit-taking pressure, a recovering USD and rising bond yields are dragging gold prices down, despite the previous optimistic expectations from the Kitco survey. If gold continues to weaken below $3,300, it could head towards $3,250, deeper into the $3,200–$3,220 range. Conversely, only when it surpasses $3,320 will the downtrend be challenged. Short-term strategy: Prioritize selling when gold recovers weakly.

Gold Under Pressure: Waiting for the Next Big MoveEarlier today, gold wrapped up the week around $3,320/ounce, falling about $53 from the previous night's peak at $3,373. This drop feels like a natural reaction as market flows begin to shift direction. The main driver behind the pullback was a stronger U.S. dollar, fueled by easing concerns over the global economy. At the same time, rising U.S. bond yields made non-yielding assets like gold less attractive to investors. Additionally, progress in U.S. trade talks with other nations further reduced the immediate demand for safe-haven assets like gold. That said, I believe the market is now in a "holding pattern," awaiting key U.S. economic data — especially the upcoming inflation report from the Fed. If the numbers confirm economic stability, gold may face additional short-term selling pressure. Bottom line: This is a time to trade cautiously. Focus on how gold reacts around major support zones and adjust strategies based on fresh economic data. Wishing everyone safe and successful trading!

Gold Rebounds Sharply After Steep DropAfter plunging $91 to close at $3,288 in yesterday’s session, gold staged an impressive comeback this morning, surging over 700 pips to reach the $3,360 area. This sharp price swing was largely driven by a mix of news catalysts. U.S. President Donald Trump stated he has no plans to remove Fed Chair Jerome Powell, but called for more aggressive rate cuts—boosting the U.S. dollar and putting short-term pressure on gold. At the same time, the IMF released its latest global outlook, projecting elevated inflation through 2026. This raised expectations for prolonged monetary tightening from central banks, capping gold’s upside potential. Additionally, a wave of profit-taking after gold's recent rally added to the downward correction.

EUR/USD Holding Key Support – Eyes Set on 1.1555?Today, EUR/USD remains steady around the 1.1280–1.1300 support zone after a mild pullback. This area aligns with the EMA89 and an ascending trendline, suggesting that the risk of a deeper decline is limited for now. ✅ Key news: The USD is under pressure as markets expect the Fed to keep rates unchanged or pivot toward a more dovish stance. This supports the euro and helps maintain the pair’s upward momentum. As long as the price holds above this support, a move back toward 1.1420 – 1.1555 remains very much on the table.

Gold Slides on Trump Remarks — But Trading Opportunities RemainGold (XAU/USD) fell over 1% in early Asian trading on Wednesday, currently hovering around $3,333. The drop came after U.S. President Donald Trump clarified that he has no intention of firing Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell. Trump stated, "The media tends to exaggerate things. No, I’m not planning to fire him. I just want to see him take a more active stance in cutting interest rates." This comment signaled reduced pressure on the Fed, which weakened gold's safe-haven appeal for the short term. Gold also showed signs of pullback due to developments around Russia-Ukraine peace talks and U.S.-China tariff negotiations. While the long-term bullish trend has paused, the current dip presents new trading setups worth considering. 💡 Suggested Trade Ideas: SELL XAU/USD: Zone: 3432–3435 🎯 Take Profit: 3405 / 50–300 pips 🛑 Stop Loss: 3440 BUY XAU/USD: Zone: 3286–3283 🎯 Take Profit: 3323 / 50–400 pips 🛑 Stop Loss: 3278 Stay calm, read the price action, and make your move when the market enters key zones.

Gold May Be Entering a New Era — Are You Ready?Last week, gold extended its historic rally once again. As trade tensions between the U.S. and China escalated and the Fed signaled a possible policy shift, the yellow metal regained strong momentum, pushing to new highs around $3,380, gaining over 500 pips from the week’s opening. What’s most notable is that despite these record levels, market sentiment remains clearly optimistic — and in my view, that optimism is well-founded. We’re seeing capital flow into gold from all directions: speculators, institutional funds, and even central banks. In today’s uncertain climate, gold isn’t just an option — it’s the market’s natural reaction to instability. This isn’t only about tariffs or geopolitics. What truly fuels the move is the Fed’s increasingly dovish tone. And every time monetary policy softens, gold steps back into the spotlight as a defensive anchor. Unless we see a major surprise — such as a sudden trade resolution or a sharp policy pivot — there’s little reason to expect the uptrend to end here. In fact, any short-term correction could serve as a healthier entry point rather than a reversal signal. So the real question right now isn’t “Has gold gone too far?” It’s: “Are we ready for a much longer bullish cycle?”

Gold Holds Steady — Is Another Rally Brewing?Gold prices are holding firm above the key zone around $3,330/oz, showing resilience despite the market slowing down for the Easter holiday. While price action is currently sideways, the bullish momentum hasn't faded. Ongoing geopolitical tensions, economic uncertainty, and U.S. trade policy shifts continue to fuel safe-haven demand for gold. For now, resistance stands near $3,353, with a solid support base forming around $3,300. After a strong rally, gold may enter a brief phase of consolidation before building fresh momentum. The ideal approach? Watch for pullbacks to key areas like the EMA 34 or support zones — or wait for a clean breakout above resistance to jump in once the market regains full liquidity. Stick with the trend, traders — and don’t forget to secure your trades with proper TP and SL. Stay sharp!

Breakout Momentum: GBP/USD Eyes 1.3500+Hey traders! Let’s break down the setup on GBP/USD for this week. Today, the pair successfully broke above the 1.3290 resistance, completing a classic cup and handle pattern on the H4 chart. Now, price is approaching the key 1.3415 daily high — a historically strong resistance zone. 📌 Technical view: EMA34 and EMA89 are trending upward, clearly supporting the bullish momentum. If a pullback occurs, the 1.3290–1.3210 zone could offer a solid BUY opportunity. 📰 News to watch: All eyes are on Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s speech tonight. The market anticipates a dovish tone, especially with U.S. jobless claims data also being released. Signs of economic softness could strengthen the case for rate cuts — and that’s GBPUSD-friendly. 🎯 Suggested strategy: Wait for a reaction at the support zone before entering long. If 1.3415 breaks, we could see a push towards 1.3500+ in the midterm. Let’s see how it plays out — trade safe and stay sharp!

Gold Is Back in the SpotlightGold has been drawing renewed attention lately, fueled by the weakening U.S. dollar — a consequence of increasingly erratic U.S. trade policies. While the dollar remains the world’s dominant reserve currency, more and more signs suggest that gold is quietly reclaiming its role as a reliable hedge in an uncertain global environment. One of the biggest catalysts is China’s recent move allowing insurance companies to increase their allocation into gold. That decision alone could generate hundreds of tons in new annual demand — a game-changer in a market where global supply remains tight. At the same time, major institutions like Citi, UBS, Goldman Sachs, and Bank of America have all raised their gold forecasts for 2025–2026. Some now see gold reaching as high as $3,500/ounce, signaling growing confidence that we’re entering a long-term bullish cycle — not just a short-term surge. From my perspective, this isn’t just a reaction to news headlines. It feels like a deep, structural shift in how institutions are approaching gold. Last Wednesday’s $100 spike wasn’t random — it marked a clear surge in momentum and sentiment. Looking ahead, we might see short-term pullbacks, but the overall trend remains unmistakably bullish. If gold does break into new territory in the coming quarters, this could be a crucial phase for planning, observing, and positioning smart Buy entries.

EUR/USD: Calm Before the Breakout?The EUR/USD pair is starting to attract buying interest as it edges closer to the 1.1370 level in early trading today. Ongoing concerns about the economic impact of trade tariffs continue to weigh on the U.S. dollar, giving the euro room to push higher and fueling bullish momentum for the pair. While the uptrend remains intact, price action may stay muted today as the pair consolidates around the 34 EMA—a zone thatholiday-driven market slowdown. The next key target lies near the 1.142 resistance zone, which could be tested early next week. A successful breakout above that level may pave the way for a fresh move toward new highs. What’s your take? Is EUR/USD gearing up for a breakout or just catching its breath?

Gold Facing Market Storm: Will The Uptrend Continue?The gold market is witnessing strong fluctuations as money flows continuously between safe-haven assets. Gold prices briefly jumped above $3,030/ounce in overnight trading, but profit-taking pressure quickly appeared, pushing prices down to $3,018 this morning. However, the overall trend is still leaning towards the uptrend as supportive factors continue to dominate the market. Bank of America forecasts that gold could reach an average of $3,063/ounce this year and go further to $3,350/ounce in 2026. The main driving force comes from central banks increasing their gold reserves, especially from China. At the same time, economic instability and strong adjustments in the US stock market are stimulating money flows to precious metals. On the technical chart, gold is fluctuating in the accumulation zone after the previous strong increase. If the price stays above $3,030 and breaks short-term resistance, the possibility of rising to higher levels is completely possible. However, fluctuations will still occur when investors take advantage of price increases to take short-term profits. Overall, with a solid support foundation from the macro economy, gold still has room to continue its upward momentum in the coming time.

EUR/USD Unexpected DropThe EUR/USD currency pair has been showing significant volatility recently, with the current trend being bearish, as it has broken above both the 34 and 89 EMAs. This indicates an increase in selling pressure, with the current price at 1.05240, lower than the previous days, and approaching the important support level at 1.05000. Notably, there is also a gap on the chart, indicating a sudden interruption in trading, which is often a sign of sudden important news or events. Personal opinion: In the current context, although the bearish trend may be worrying for many investors, I believe that this could also be an opportunity to buy at low prices if the euro starts to recover. The fact that the price is currently below both EMAs could further deepen the downtrend, but this could also lead to a strong recovery if there are supporting factors from economic data or from the policies of the European Central Bank.
