XAUUSD (Gold) – Head & Shoulders Pattern

Gold is currently showing a potential Head & Shoulders structure on the 1D chart. The pattern has developed over several months following a strong bullish move.

Pattern Structure
Left Shoulder: September–October 2025
Head: January–February 2026
Right Shoulder: July–August 2026
Neckline / Key Support: around 4,000–4,050

Current Situation
Gold is trading around 4,318 after rejecting the 4,400–4,450 area, which is close to the right-shoulder region.
The main level to watch is the 4,000–4,050 support/neckline zone.
A decisive daily close below this area could confirm the bearish continuation of the pattern.

Key Levels
Resistance:
4,400–4,450
4,600–4,650

Support:
4,000–4,050
3,800
3,600
3,400

Outlook
As long as Gold remains below the right-shoulder resistance, the bearish scenario remains valid.

A confirmed break below 4,000–4,050 could open the way toward the lower support levels.

However, a strong move back above 4,450 would weaken the current bearish setup.

This is a technical analysis scenario, and proper risk management should always be considered.

Gold (XAUUSD) is currently trading around 4345 after rejecting the 4435–4445 resistance/POI area.

The key zone to watch now is 4355–4360, which aligns with the 4H FVG/demand area. This zone could determine whether buyers regain control or whether a deeper correction develops.

Bullish Scenario.
If price holds and reclaims 4360, the next upside levels to watch are 4400, followed by 4435–4445. A clean breakout and acceptance above 4445 could signal further upside.

Bearish Scenario.
A strong 4H close below 4355 would weaken the bullish structure and could expose 4290–4300. If selling pressure continues, the next major demand/liquidity area is around 4200–4230.
Key Levels-
4355–4360: Key support / demand-
4290–4300: Next downside area-
4200–4230: Major demand zone-
4400: Resistance-
4435–4445: Major resistance / POI

Current Bias: Cautiously bullish while 4355–4360 holds. However, confirmation is important before entering a trade.
photo_6064290326861517189_y.jpgWhat is your view on XAUUSD here — bullish continuation from 4355–4360 or deeper correction toward 4290–4300?
 
Gold (XAUUSD) continues to show a bullish structure on the 4H chart after breaking above the 4,440 POI and reclaiming the descending trendline.

The breakout was accompanied by strong bullish displacement, with price moving from the 4,360 support area toward 4,520.

Key levels I’m watching:
- 4,440 — Breakout/POI and important support
- 4,440–4,360 — FVG + demand zone
- 4,520 — First major upside target
- 4,360 — Key support/invalidation

I’m not looking to chase the current move. Instead, I’m watching for a possible retracement into the 4,440–4,360 zone.

If price reacts positively from this area and gives bullish confirmation, continuation toward 4,520 and potentially higher could be the next scenario.

On the other hand, a strong bearish break below 4,360 would weaken the current bullish structure.

What do you think — will XAUUSD retest the 4,440 area before continuing higher, or will buyers push directly toward 4,520?
