Great move by Asia.
second day in a row that they saving my bad entries to tremendous profit.

the bigger picture always matter (against the structure sometimes the chopping kills).

Anyway 5:08 GMT time.
we have one more hour to push the price up strongly
break the 3020 will be great.
main target for today is 3055 at least.
later i will consider what to do.. but nearest lower targets should be 2880 (not before clean all the 3055+ area from orders.

No trading level anticipated on your last "not really graph / technical analysis" {quote} You said {quote} you said Fibonacci {quote} If you are Fibonacci I am Satoshi Nakamoto The "professor's" argument being very confusing, {quote} could you describe concretely (without blah blah) your "detailed and simple" technique as you said. which seems to rely only on a few resistances / supports.

{quote} Price is sitting at a key support (3000-3005) with strong buy-side absorption showing up in the order flow. Selling pressure is weakening (delta turning less negative, cumulative delta ticking up), and we’re at a high-volume node. If price holds above 3000 and breaks 3007 resistance, we could see an upmove targeting 3012-3015. I’m expecting this to happen around 12:15-12:30 if buyers keep defending this level. Watch for a break below 3000 as a bearish signal could mean more downside to 2990-2995. Thoughts?
Update: Gold / US Dollar (XAUUSD) Prediction – April 8, 2025
I wanted to follow up on my prediction from April 8, 2025, at 11:46 AM regarding XAUUSD on the M15 timeframe. Let’s break down what happened and whether the setup played out as expected. I’ve attached an updated chart for reference (snapshot taken on April 9, 07:04 AM).
Original Prediction Recap:

  1. Setup: Price was sitting at a key support zone of 3000–3005, showing strong buy-side absorption in the order flow. Selling pressure was weakening (delta turning less negative, cumulative delta ticking up), and we were at a high-volume node.
  2. Bullish Scenario: If price held above 3000 and broke the 3007 resistance, I expected an upmove targeting 3012–3015. I anticipated this breakout to happen around 12:15–12:30 PM on April 8.
  3. Bearish Scenario: A break below 3000 would signal more downside, potentially targeting 2990–2995.

What Happened?

  1. Price Action at 12:15–12:30 PM (April 8): The price did hold above the 3000 support as expected, with buyers defending the level. However, the breakout above 3007 did not occur around 12:15–12:30 PM as I had predicted. Instead, the price consolidated between 3000 and 3005 for a few more hours.
  2. Later Price Action (April 8): Later in the day, around 15:00–18:00 PM, the price finally broke above the 3007 resistance. It then moved up to hit the 3012–3015 target zone, exactly as predicted in the bullish scenario.
  3. Bearish Scenario: The price never broke below 3000 in a sustained way, so the bearish scenario (down to 2990–2995) did not play out.
  4. Current Status (April 9, 07:04 AM): As of the latest snapshot, the price is at 3008.16, slightly below the 3012–3015 zone it reached earlier, and appears to be consolidating again.

Did the Prediction Play Out?

  1. Partially Yes, but Timing Was Off: The directional call was correct—price broke above 3007 and reached the 3012–3015 target zone, which is a win for the setup. The buy-side absorption and weakening selling pressure I noted in the order flow held true, as buyers defended the 3000 level and eventually pushed price higher.
  2. However, the timing of the breakout was off. I expected the move to happen around 12:15–12:30 PM, but it took until later in the day (15:00–18:00 PM) for the breakout to occur. This is a good reminder that while the setup and levels can be accurate, timing the exact moment of a breakout is always tricky.

Setups like this where we have the chance to either take a long or short and are not fixed to a single position type are valuable because they offer flexibility and allow us to adapt to the market’s direction, increasing the probability of catching a profitable move.
The setup was good because we had both a long and a short opportunity, and the chances were high for one of them to be hit.

trust me, try to sell only around FOMC or tomorrow. Price is in retracement mode and strong one. Could go to 3055-3087 before moving down.

Amazing Stupid Blackbox
Stupid to say: "Traders like me, who are highly "detailed,"
Zero detail
The characteristic of a Blackbox is not to detail but to hide a stupid technique.

I prefer those who lend their fishing rod to those who try to sell rotten fish.
