Gold Chart Analysis | April 2, 2026 - Key Levels & Trade Setup

Dear Gold Traders,
The gold market is currently in a trend building phase, but sellers still hold the advantage. Before the next major sell-off, we could see a few hundred pips of upside movement. A strong reversal sell entry may present itself above the $4,640 resistance level, provided we confirm resistance on lower timeframes such as the 30M or 15M charts.
Important Note: A sell breakout trade is not favorable today. Only if price breaks below the $4,550 major support can we expect a fresh wave of selling pressure.

If the market flips trend advantage from Sell to Buy, I’ll update all of you immediately. Stay alert and ready to adapt.

Always respect risk management and trade with discipline. Missing an entry is perfectly fine- patience protects your capital. Never rush into the market; the next opportunity will always come.

I traded the break and retest of that range. I got taken out at beak-even. What are some clues I should have picked up to close the trade? For me, this could have been a huge move.
EDIT: Well, after a last move to the upside, reacting once again at 4.630, it went south.

you ask about how to improve your trading
from the amount of testing and years in the market, breakout seems to be a bad way to trade (not saying it doesn't work for some). money loves to stop hunt just outside of breakouts - then you see the retrace to the upper band and drop after that wick
You already have the zones marked out, and if you can see the the longer term direction, trade from the upper zone and sell, or buy from the lower zone.
but if you look left, you can see the zone around your 9am and the bouncy-bounce around the 8:30 area -> good place for a reversal

my issue with trading at the moment is not following rules and trading system with impatience

good luck

The trend remains bearish, and I知 waiting for a strong resistance level to confirm a sell entry. Discipline and patience are key- let the market give you the signal before acting.

For me, this could have been a huge move.
The issue was on the lower timeframe, specifically the 30M chart. Even so, it was still a major support level. Waiting for that support to break would have been the better choice in my view.

Ultimately, we all interpret charts based on our own experience and skill. So it’s really unfair to tell you the importance of lower timeframes when the higher timeframes have some issues. I’m simply sharing what I’m doing myself- I remain bearish, but I don’t see a valid trade setup yet. And I’m completely fine with that. Patience is part of discipline.

Bro, instead of keeping trading rules only in your head, write them down in a Word file. When the market moves fast, it痴 easy to forget the rules you thought of in the heat of the moment. But with written rules, you can review them before every trade and stay disciplined. This method has helped me a lot.

I personally keep a Microsoft Word file full of my trading rules, along with pictures of relevant market conditions for every possible scenario. That way, I have a clear vision before any move happens, and I never trade blindly.

Dear Gold traders: it looks like sellers may not be interested in pushing the market down today. For a buy reversal trade, we need confirmation of strong support on the 30M chart.

The scalping buy trend remains valid as long as price holds above the 30M major support at $4,590.

Thanks.
After many years of looking at the market and running through indicators and working on breakout trading and trend following, learning to trade a candle after breakout has been hard ->large candle = that was it, sort of thoughts.

trading has been much better this year, compared to previous years. I have some rules hand-written, but it's learning to follow them as much as anything else in this business.
Still keep falling back to insta-trades at resistance points (same old crap from years of monkey button pressing). Posting stuff here has helped to listen to my own words - just have to pin those rules up nice and high over the monitor

Even have automagic S/R drawn and a double up of directional bias - just have to follow the rules

Having proper S/R and a clear directional bias is already a huge edge, but the real edge is sticking to the plan when the candle looks too juicy to ignore.

Dear Gold traders,

I have a question for you all: when do you go for 2X+ trades on Gold? What criteria do you follow?

Thanks for the link, the content in this video is quite basic.
What I知 really interested in is how other gold traders differentiate between 1x and 2x+ based trades before entry. I値l share my own rules at the end of the day, but for now I壇 love to hear about your practices and entry rules.

if you have an A+ setup then you go 2x or more. so really depends on your experience. if you dont have much then dont do 2x

Honestly, the moment I mastered the discipline of cutting losses early-closing a trade as soon as I see an opposite candle close against my position instead of waiting for my stop-loss-everything changed. Trading became simpler, cleaner, and far less stressful
