Technical analysis by GoldMindsFX about Symbol PAXG on 9/9/2025

🚀Gold printed a new all-time high. Last Friday, now Monday and today. You sell. You lose. The minute it pulls back, you try again. Same story on repeat. Thousands of beginner traders are caught in this loop right now. Sell → Stop Loss → Frustration → Sell again because now for sure it will reverse, because it has to... wake up and stop this loop. I. The Mental Bias – Why ATHs Trigger Dumb Decisions The human brain hates “expensive”. Expensive feels wrong to buy, so you try to sell it, forgetting that expensive can get even higher in price. We are wired to hunt bargains, not pay premiums, but Gold at ATH doesn’t follow shopping logic. “I missed the buy, so I’ll catch the drop” is Ego trading, not strategy. People confuse exhaustion candles with reversals. ATHs are not automatic sell signals; they are liquidity traps. Your brain wants to be right, not profitable. II. Why GOLD is Different – It Doesn’t Behave Like Forex Pairs Gold = Safe Haven. It attracts massive capital in global political & economic uncertainty. When XAUUSD breaks ATH, it often does so to induce sellers, not reverse. It will breathe, drop 100 pips, trap more shorts, and rally again. This is by design, due to the fact that the market runs on pain and liquidity. III. So What Should You Actually Do? • Stop shorting just because it’s “too high”. Learn to wait or buy pullbacks. • Don’t trade out of regret. Trade from a solid plan. • Use bias on different time frames from high to low, structural zones and key levels. • Align with HTF bias. Intraday trades should flow with the structure. • Gold gives pullbacks, if you miss them, wait, don’t chase reversals until the fire in price action settles with solid confirmations. 🌟Conclusion to follow: It’s not Gold that destroys accounts, but panic, ego, lack of patience and the absence of structure. XAUUSD isn’t your enemy, but as always your emotions are. Until you learn to keep them in check, trade less and …. Survive ATH season by following the structure and leave moods & fake hopes out of the market.
