The most difficult part of trading is staying clear-headed when everyone is celebrating, and recognizing risks amid the noise. A unilateral extension always has an end, and seeing the turning point in advance is the confidence behind steady account growth.

Today’s Market Review: Gold prices surged all the way up, reaching a high of around 4817, currently trading near 4815. Overall, it shows a strong upward trend with a single-sided rally, with gains exceeding 1.5%, pushing bullish sentiment to recent highs.

From a technical perspective, the 1-hour Bollinger Bands have clearly widened, with the price directly breaking above the upper band. The upper band is currently around 4809. Operating outside the upper band indicates an overbought condition, and short-term pullback demand is continuously building. Meanwhile, the volume VR indicator has reached about 121, indicating a relatively high level, and the momentum for chasing higher is rapidly diminishing. The cost-effectiveness of continuing to buy is now very low. From a trend structure standpoint, this rally has broken through the previous consolidation zone. Although the short-term bulls are dominant, there is no clear strong resistance above, increasing the risk of chasing longs, while the safety margin for short positions is gradually emerging.

For midnight trading, maintain the core idea of shorting at high levels. Watch for resistance in the 4818-4822 zone, which is a strong resistance area after the short-term overbought condition. When touched, consider layering short positions, with targets first at 4790-4785. Place stops above 4828. Do not rush to buy on dips; wait for a pullback and stabilization signal before considering low-level longs, to avoid buying at high prices.
