Market & Gold Analysis 🫥 What’s affecting the market since last week: After Friday’s correction, the price confidently bounced back up, but didn’t reach the planned short-entry zone. A stable flow of buy orders appeared from below — buyers are applying pressure. 📈 Current market dynamics: At the Frankfurt session level, the market left equal highs — a strong resistance zone. This area is now the priority zone for looking for longs, as a retest looks highly probable with the current bullish impulse. A breakout of the accumulation zone before London open confirms the upward scenario. Price is sitting in a potential manipulation area — a typical picture before trend continuation. 📰 Fundamental factors influencing gold right now: 1. China: has been accumulating gold for 13 months straight, despite record-high prices. For them, gold is a strategic asset, not speculation — a strong fundamental driver for growth. 2. India: recently reduced its allocation to U.S. Treasuries and increased its gold holdings. We’re seeing a steady capital flow shifting from U.S. debt into safe-haven assets. These two factors create a stable underlying demand from the world’s largest gold consumers. 🎯 Plan for the day: 1. Priority — longs from support levels with confirmation. 2. Shorts — only from upper resistance zones and only with a clear signal. No trying to catch tops in the middle of the range. The current area is the only clean zone for a high-probability long setup. No other strong support levels are nearby.
