The article covers the following subjects:

Highlights and key points

  • Main scenario: consider long positions from corrections above the level of 2601.27 with a target of 2800.00 – 3000.00. A buy signal: if the price holds above 2601.27. Stop Loss: below 2590.00, Take Profit: 2800.00 – 3000.00.
  • Alternative scenario: breakout and consolidation below the level of 2601.27 will allow the pair to continue declining to the levels of 2468.90 – 2356.76. A sell signal: once the level of 2601.27 is broken to the downside. Stop Loss: above 2610.00, Take Profit: 2468.90 – 2356.76.

Main scenario

Consider long positions from a correction above the level of 2601.27 with a target of 2800.00 – 3000.00.

Alternative scenario

Breakout and consolidation below the level of 2601.27 will allow the pair to continue declining to the levels of 2468.90 – 2356.76.

Analysis

The fifth wave of larger degree 5 is presumably developing on the weekly chart, with wave (5) of 5 forming as its part. Apparently, the third wave 3 of (5) is unfolding on the daily time frame, with wave v of 3 continuing forming as its part. On the H4 chart, the third wave of smaller degree (iii) of v is formed, a local correction finished developing as the fourth wave (iv) of v, and the fifth wave (v) of v is unfolding. If the presumption is correct, the XAUUSD pair will continue to rise to the levels of 2800.00 – 3000.00. The level of 2601.27 is critical in this scenario as a breakout will enable the pair to continue falling to the levels of 2468.90 – 2356.76.
