Gold Short: Capitalizing on Sunday Open Rejection
تم تحديثه
Gold has shown a strong rejection of the $2,650 price area after retracing to the Sunday open levels, aligning with the prevailing higher time frame (HTF) bearish trend. This trade is engaged to capitalize on the downside potential as the price fails to break the dynamic resistance at $2,650. With the support of the HTF momentum and a clear rejection, the trade setup focuses on targeting the lower support levels in the $2,610-$2,600 zone while maintaining a disciplined approach to risk management.
Technical Analysis:
Daily Chart:
• Price struggles below the mildly bearish 20 SMA.
• Both 100 and 200 SMAs maintain their bearish slopes, confirming the downtrend.
• Momentum indicators remain neutral, supporting the absence of bullish reversal signs.
4-Hour Chart:
• XAU/USD trades below the flat 20 SMA while hovering near a directionless 100 SMA.
• The 200 SMA around $2,690 acts as dynamic resistance, pushing prices lower.

Fundamental Analysis:
The US Dollar’s strength continues to weigh on Gold prices, driven by robust macroeconomic data:

• Wall Street Sentiment: Mixed trading as geopolitical tensions between the US and Russia persist.
• Upcoming Events: Markets anticipate key US employment data, particularly the Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) report on Friday, which could bring additional volatility to XAU/USD.
Trade Management:

• Stop Loss: Placed above $2,659 to manage risk efficiently.
• Targets: Initial take profit at $2,622, with a potential extension to $2,610.
• Risk Management: Adhering to the bearish trend, the trade will be closely monitored, especially as the US Nonfarm Payrolls data approaches.

Note: Please remember to adjust this trade idea according to your individual trading conditions, including position size, broker-specific price variations, and any relevant external factors. Every trader’s situation is unique, so it’s crucial to tailor your approach to your own risk tolerance and market environment.

ملاحظة
The trade is currently at the breakeven point, fluctuating between profit and drawdown. Since Monday, the price has been ranging within the 2,634–2,656 zone. I am actively managing the position and will exit if there is a close below the breakeven level. With tomorrow expected to be a volatile trading day due to upcoming news, I plan to close the trade beforehand. The market appears to be preparing for these events.تم فتح الصفقة
Gold has finally started moving, allowing me to close 90% of the position at 2,623. As mentioned in my earlier note, I plan to avoid being involved during tomorrow’s NFP release due to the expected high volatility. Having been in this trade since Monday, I decided not to take on additional risk. Overall, this was a solid move. I’ll let the remaining portion of the trade run into tomorrow to see if there’s further momentum. Pay yourself and adjust to the market dynamics accordingly.تم إغلاق الصفقة يدويًا
I have decided to fully close the position at 2,613, securing a 1.22% move in my favor. The market moved as anticipated, and I prioritized locking in profits without exposing myself to volatility. It’s been a productive trading week without unnecessary risk during high-volatility days. Enjoy the weekend and remember to always pay yourself!
