9.18 Gold Morning Analysis: Gold Surges Over 140 Points Before Consolidating at Highs! Rejected at 4380 and Retreats—Is the Bullish Trend Over?

On the 30-minute chart, spot gold dipped to the intraday low of 4235 during the morning session before launching a strong rebound. The bulls continued to push prices higher in a one-way rally, with the evening high reaching 4381, after which gold was rejected and retreated into high-level sideways consolidation. It is currently quoted at 4345, fluctuating narrowly between 4340 and 4350 in the short term, as bulls and bears engage in a tug-of-war at e

Short-term bias is bullish, but this trade must use a tight stop-loss. Current price: 131.61. MA5 has crossed above MA20, the MACD histogram has turned positive, RSI at 58.2 still has room to rise, and the structure remains intact. However, the amplitude over 30 candles is as high as 7.45%, while the Fear & Greed Index at 56 is in the greed zone, meaning long chasers are crowded in, and any wick could sweep out loose positions.
Strategy: Reference entry range: 130.5–131.8, the pullback zone above MA20; do not chase above the Bollinger upper band at 133.4. Take-profit 1: 133.4 (the Bollinger u

Many people automatically assume that tangled moving averages mean “no opportunities in a sideways market,” so they take a heavy directional position prematurely, only to repeatedly get stopped out by the upper and lower Bollinger Bands. The real signal lies not in the moving averages themselves, but in the first expansion after their compression.
$TRUM The current price is 1.951, with MA5=1.9494 slightly below MA20=1.95075. The moving averages are nearly converged, indicating a typical eve of a directional choice. The MACD histogram is -0.002362; bearish momentum has not yet reached zero, bu

Zhanan’s live trade on SKHY Hynix
The current price is already very close to the 1330 take-profit level.
1330 is near the upper boundary of this range. Tonight, we need to see whether it can break out of the range again; if it pulls back, 1240 is still worth watching.

9.18 Gold Morning Analysis

Yesterday’s midnight-session pullback-and-buy-the-dip strategy proved effective, with the support level accurately anticipated. After surging, gold entered high-level range-bound consolidation. The current gold price is around 4354.

Technical outlook: The 1-hour Bollinger Bands are flattening, with gold trading near the middle band, and upward momentum has slowed somewhat. The 30-minute Bollinger Bands are narrowing, with prices fluctuating above the middle band. The broader bullish trend remains intact, but the short term has entered a consolidation phase.

Watching the charts got annoying, but turning them off actually made things clearer. Once my eyes stopped fixating on them, my heart stopped panicking too.
During the intraday bottoming process, $MAGMA retested 0.17163 and held, with buying pressure clearly strengthening. I didn’t hesitate and went long directly; the market hadn’t fully started moving yet at that point.
When I checked the chart after lunch, 0.20133 and +338.45% were already secured. Those who timed the move right should be laughing in their sleep.

After $BCH surged to 235.22, I instead took profits on 70% first. It’s not that I’m bearish; this level is right at the key previous-high area, so the risk-reward of chasing further has worsened. The move up from 221.80 formed a breakout-pullback-breakout structure, with each pullback holding at a higher key level and volume expanding on the breakouts.
The key levels are clear now: the previous high is the first key level. If price can pull back on lower volume after the breakout and hold the upper boundary, that would create a new entry setup; if it simply pushes up and then falls back, it co
