XAU / USD : trend forecast December 18, 2025 ⚠️Gold (XAU/USD) trades with a mild bearish bias during the early European session on Thursday, slipping back below the $4,350 level after recently marking seven-week highs. The retracement appears to be driven by profit-taking flows alongside a modest rebound in the US Dollar (USD). However, downside pressure on the yellow metal is likely to remain limited, as the latest US labor-market data has reinforced expectations for additional rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, keeping broader USD sentiment fragile. A lower interest-rate environment continues to reduce the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets, underpinning gold prices. ⚠️ Gold prices edged lower in the European session, breaking the trendline. A further downward correction is expected, potentially returning to 4300. 🚨/// SELL XAU : zone 4334-4337 SL: 4340 TP: 50 - 100 - 300pips ( 4307 ) Safe and profitable trading

XAU / USD : trend forecast December 18, 2025 ⚠️Gold (XAU/USD) trades modestly lower during the Asian session on Thursday, slipping back below the $4,350 mark after recently touching seven-week highs. The pullback appears driven by profit-taking flows alongside a near-term rebound in the US Dollar (USD). That said, downside pressure on the yellow metal is likely to remain contained, as the latest US labor-market data has reinforced expectations for additional rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, keeping broader USD sentiment on the defensive. A lower interest-rate backdrop continues to compress the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets, offering underlying support to gold prices. Beyond macro drivers, heightened geopolitical risks are back in focus after Venezuela reportedly deployed naval forces to escort oil shipments amid threats of a US blockade. Such developments may revive safe-haven demand, potentially lending fresh support to gold in the near term. ⚠️The bulls continue to maintain the upward trend above 4300, accumulating to break through the 4352 resistance and return to the old ATH of 4381 by the end of 2025. 🚨/// SELL XAU : zone 4351 - 4354 SL: 4359 TP: 50 - 300 - 500pips ( 4304 ) 🚨/// SELL XAU : zone 4380 - 4383 SL: 4388 TP: 50 - 300 - 500pips ( 4333 ) Safe and profitable tradingExactly trend : increase , strong bullish

XAU / USD : trend forecast December 17, 2025 ⚠️Gold (XAU/USD) continues to build on its bullish tone during the early European session on Wednesday, trading just below seven-week highs above $4,350. The yellow metal gathers traction as the US labor market, while still relatively resilient, shows clear signs of deceleration. A mixed November employment report has reinforced expectations for additional easing by the Federal Reserve, exerting downward pressure on the US Dollar (USD). A lower interest-rate environment continues to reduce the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets, providing a supportive backdrop for gold prices. On the policy front, the Federal Reserve delivered its third 25-basis-point rate cut at last week’s December meeting, though officials remain divided on the need for further cuts in 2026. The median projection among policymakers points to just one additional reduction next year, while several members see rates on hold. Market participants will look for fresh direction from upcoming Fedspeak later on Wednesday, with New York Fed President John Williams and Atlanta Fed President Raphael Bostic scheduled to speak. Any hawkish tilt in their remarks could offer near-term support to the Greenback and cap gains in USD-denominated commodities. ⚠️ GOLD PRICES CONTINUE TO TRADE SIDEWAYS - breaking the short-term trendline during the European session, retesting 4328 and continuing to correct downwards. 🚨/// SELL XAU : zone 4328-4331 SL: 4334 TP: 50 - 100 - 300pips ( 4301 ) Safe and profitable tradingXAU recover above 4330 , break

XAU / USD : trend forecast November 18, 2025 ⚠️The longest U.S. government shutdown on record has resulted in a lack of official economic data, prompting markets to scale back expectations for a December rate cut by the Federal Reserve. Adding to the cautious mood, several Fed officials have recently pushed back against the prospect of further policy easing. Fed Vice Chair Philip Jefferson noted on Monday that upside inflation risks have moderated and that the current policy stance is already “somewhat restrictive.” Even so, Jefferson emphasized that the Fed must move carefully as monetary policy edges closer to the neutral rate. ⚠️ Gold price recovered briefly in European trading session, pay attention to the resistance zone 4050-4053 gold selling point continues to decrease 🚨/// SELL XAU : zone 4050 - 4053 SL: 4057 TP: 50 - 100 - 300pips ( 4023 ) Safe and profitable trading
