XAUUSD: Holding Above EMA200 โ But MSS Candidate Lurkingโ STRUCTURE
Gold continues to hold above EMA200 โ now 4 consecutive days. LONG/Above/Bullish at $4,568 during London session.
The rally from $4,350 to $4,625 earlier today was strong, with bullish BoS stacking all the way up. But the pullback from $4,625 to $4,568 is worth watching โ an MSS candidate (โ) has appeared on the right side of the chart, meaning a bearish reversal would trigger if price breaks below the recent swing low.
EMA200 (cyan ~$4,515) is now acting as support for the first time in the entire correction. Price is $50 above it. This is the longest sustained period above EMA200 since the crash began on Mar 13.
โ KEY LEVELS
Resistance: $4,600-4,625 (today's high, recent BoS)
Support: $4,515 (EMA200 โ the line that matters)
Support: $4,480-4,500 (previous structure)
MSS trigger: If price breaks below ~$4,540 โ structure flips bearish
โ WHAT TO WATCH
The MSSโ candidate is the key signal to monitor. As long as it remains unbroken, bullish structure holds. A bounce from $4,540-4,550 area with a new bullish BoS would confirm the uptrend.
If the MSS fires and price drops back below EMA200 ($4,515) โ back to the familiar pattern of failed bounces.
4 days above EMA200 is the strongest bullish signal since the correction started. The burden of proof has shifted โ bears need to prove a reversal, not bulls.

โ THE MILESTONE
For the first time since the crash began on Mar 13, SmartFlow is showing:
Bias: LONG โฒ
EMA200: Above
Structure: Bullish
All three aligned bullish. This hasn't happened in three weeks .
Price is at $4,535, sitting above both EMA200 lines (cyan ~$4,480, red ~$4,460). The 3-step bottom signal that I've been tracking since the start of the crash:
โ
Step 1: Sweep below $4,100 (Mar 23)
โ
Step 2: Bullish MSS confirmed
โ
Step 3: Holding above structure through multiple retests โ now above EMA200
This is the first time all three steps have completed since the crash started.
โ WHY THIS IS DIFFERENT
Previous bounce attempts:
Mar 17: MSS at $5,020 โ rejected at EMA200 ($5,040) โ died in hours
Mar 20: MSS at $4,650 โ rejected at EQH ($4,700) โ died in hours
Mar 24: MSS at $4,400 โ tested EMA200 โ held but didn't break above
Today: Price has been consolidating around EMA200 for 4 days ($4,360-$4,560 range) and is now sitting above it. Not a V-shaped spike that gets instantly rejected โ a gradual reclaim with structure building.
โ KEY LEVELS
Support: $4,480 (EMA200 โ now support, was resistance for 3 weeks)
Support: $4,440-4,460 (EMA200 red + recent BoS zone)
Resistance: $4,560-4,580 (recent highs)
Target: $4,640-4,680 (next structural resistance from Mar 25)
โ WHAT TO WATCH
The critical test now: does EMA200 hold as support on a pullback?
If price pulls back to $4,480 and bounces โ EMA200 role reversal confirmed โ first genuine recovery signal since the crash.
If price falls back below $4,440 โ another failed attempt, back to bearish.
Three weeks of tracking this crash, and this is the most structurally complete bullish setup we've seen. The structure isn't just bullish โ it's bullish above the EMA200 for the first time.

โ STRUCTURE
Something has shifted. SmartFlow shows LONG/Bullish for the first time in days, with price at $4,445 โ right at the EMA200 convergence zone.
Price bounced from $4,360 with bullish BoS stacking up. The EMA200 lines (cyan ~$4,480, red ~$4,450) are converging and price is sitting right between them. This is the tightest price-to-EMA200 relationship we've seen since the crash started.
Key difference from previous bounces: price is consolidating at EMA200 instead of getting rejected immediately . Previous attempts ($5,040, $4,700, $4,500) all saw sharp rejections within hours. Today, price is building structure around this level.
โ KEY LEVELS
Resistance: $4,480 (EMA200 cyan โ the breakout level)
Resistance: $4,520-4,560 (recent BoS highs from Mar 25-26)
Support: $4,400 (current structure base)
Support: $4,360 (EQL zone โ bounce origin)
โ WHAT TO WATCH
This is the 3-step bottom test again:
โ
Sweep below $4,360 โ done
โ
Bullish MSS + BoS โ done, structure is bullish
โณ Hold above $4,400 after EMA200 interaction โ in progress
If price closes above $4,480 and pulls back to hold $4,400-4,450 โ first confirmed structural reversal in 2 weeks. If rejected below $4,400 โ same pattern, next leg down.
The fact that structure is bullish while price sits at EMA200 (not $200 below it) is the most constructive setup since the crash began.

NATGATE - 8 RECORD SESSION LOWS ?NATGATE : CURRENT PRICE : RM1.00 - RM1.02
NATGATE has been in a corrective phase and recently printed an 8-session low, which often signals selling exhaustion and opens the door for a technical rebound. (The record session topic is discussed by STEVE NISON in his book - BEYOND CANDLESTICK , PAGE 121 - 127)
A bullish piercing line appeared in Fridayโs session, where buyers pushed price well into the prior bearish candleโs body. Stochastic oscillator is currently in the oversold zone, signalling a potential technical rebound.
ENTRY PRICE : RM1.00 - RM1.02
FIRST TARGET : RM1.10
SECOND TARGET : RM1.22 (near EMA 200) - The EMA 200 has capped price twice, acting as strong dynamic resistance, look at the green highlighted area.
SUPPORT : RM0.935
Notes : For reference, Iโve attached the link to my previous write-up related to this setup.
FTAI - Second Opportunity as Trend Structure HoldsFTAI - CURRENT PRICE : 285.75
After the prior technical buy call reached both targets, FTAI is now forming another technically constructive setup worth monitoring. For reference, my previous technical buy call, which successfully hit both targets, is attached in link section.
After the breakout on 30 December 2025, price advanced strongly, followed by a pullback that has reached the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement, which is typical and healthy in strong trends. Price continues to hold above the EMA 50, keeping the medium-term uptrend intact.
Momentum indicators remain supportive of renewed upside. RSI is holding above the 50 level, confirming bullish momentum remains intact, while MACD stays above the zero line with an improving histogram, signaling strengthening upside momentum following the consolidation phase. This combination suggests the pullback has allowed momentum to reset without breaking the broader bullish structure.
ENTRY PRICE : 285.75
FIRST TARGET : 320.00
SECOND TARGET 338.00
SUPPORT : 255.61 (the low of 11 February 2026 candle)
AER - Ascending Channel & MACD Signal Point to Further UpsideAER - CURRENT PRICE : 150.43
AerCap Holdings N.V. (AER) is currently trading at all-time high levels, which reflects strong bullish momentum and continued demand from buyers. When a stock reaches new highs, it enters a price discovery phase with no historical resistance above, often signaling sustained upward strength.
Technically, price is moving within a well-defined ascending channel , forming higher highs and higher lows โ a classic sign of a healthy uptrend. In addition, the stock is trading comfortably above the EMA 50, which is sloping upward, confirming that medium-term momentum remains firmly bullish and that pullbacks are being supported.
Momentum indicators are also turning positive. The MACD is showing a fresh bullish crossover, similar to previous instances highlighted on the chart (look at white circle) where a crossover was followed by a strong price rally. The histogram is turning positive again, suggesting that upside momentum is building at an early stage. If this setup follows the previous pattern, it could lead to another leg higher.
Overall, with price at all-time highs, a strong uptrend channel structure, trading above EMA 50, and an early bullish MACD signal, the technical outlook remains biased toward continued upside.
ENTRY PRICE : 148.00 - 150.43
FIRST TARGET : 163.00
SECOND TARGET : 173.00
SUPPORT : 137.55

Tower Semiconductor (TSEM) remains in a strong uptrend, with price holding above EMA 200 (long-term bullish) and above EMA 50 (medium-term bullish). The recent hammer candle near EMA 50 signals strong buying interest and rejection of lower prices.

EXC - Positive MA Structure with MACD ConfirmationEXC - CURRENT PRICE : 47.55
Exelon Corp is flashing a bullish moving-average crossover, with SMA 20 crossing above EMA 50 and EMA 200, signalling a positive shift in trend. This setup has occurred before (look at orange circle) and previously led to a strong upside move. Price is holding above key moving averages, maintaining a bullish bias, while MACD remains bullish, confirming improving momentum.

AMAZON - EMA 200: Where Institutions Step InAMZN - CURRENT PRICE : 237.70
๐ AMZN โ Institutional Support Holds, Momentum Breakout
AMZN continues to trade in a primary uptrend, with EMA 200 acting as a strong institutional accumulation zone. Multiple pullbacks toward the EMA 200 (highlighted in green) were met with immediate buying interest, confirming long-term demand.
Momentum is now turning bullish:
๐ฅPrice has broken back above the Ichimoku Cloud, signaling trend resumption.
๐ฅRSI is crossing above the 60 level, a classic sign of bullish momentum acceleration.
This setup favors momentum traders looking to enter as the uptrend resumes.
ENTRY PRICE : 235.00 - 237.80
TARGET : 258.00 (All Time High level)
SUPPORT / INVALIDATION : EMA 200
๐ As long as price holds above EMA 200, the bullish structure remains intact.
TVTX - Breaks a 10-Year High โ A New Chapter BeginsTVTX - CURRENT PRICE : 38.21
TVTX has made a major technical breakout by moving above its 10-year high at $37.04, a level last seen in August 2015. This move places the stock firmly into price discovery, meaning there is no nearby historical resistance overhead. Importantly, the breakout is holding, with the previous resistance now acting as strong support, a key sign of a healthy and sustainable uptrend.
Looking back, the 24 December breakout can be viewed as an ascending triangle breakout, where price consistently made higher lows before finally pushing above resistance. This pattern often signals strong accumulation and continuation rather than a short-term spike. Trend indicators remain supportive, with price trading above the EMA 50 and above the Ichimoku Cloud, both pointing to a well-established bullish trend.
From a price action perspective, the latest candlestick structure has formed a Bullish Harami based on Japanese candlestick analysis , suggesting selling pressure is fading and buyers may be preparing for the next move higher. As long as TVTX continues to hold above the former resistance zone and the EMA 50 on a daily closing basis, pullbacks are considered buy-on-dip opportunities. The next upside targets are $42 followed by $45, while a daily close below the EMA 50 would invalidate the bullish setup and serves as a cut-loss level.
ENTRY PRICE : 38.21
FIRST TARGET : 42.00
SECOND TARGET : 45.00
SUPPORT : EMA 50 (Cutloss if price closed below EMA 50)

btc finds 200 ema support, whats next?As I have been posting in these "Ideas" for the past few weeks about market direction and where the price for BTC will go. It now has come to pass where the 200 EMA has been tested and support has been found, It however has not generated any relief among buyer sentiment unable to push price above the previous days close leaving the digital asset to continue to bleed out and cause positions from all the 93k Bulls to liquidate.
Its a shame people cannot make the connection that the only way price can go higher is to go lower in a market. That Is why I am going to warn people about where we may go , I believe the 200 EMA will be tested again and if support is broken it will send is into the low 70k area where there are open orders and It is possible this may happen. The Bull market support band is the 200EMA however there may be institutional money that may drive us down to cause massive liquidations and fear and panic among those holding bags while greed causes big players to push more into the fringe of where we can maintain a recovery.
Watch for a retest of the 200EMA . which is a bit of a fuzzy zone , use the high and low to denote the area for support as well as keep an eye on the RSI and CCI , we are also watching on balance volume drop off which is not a great sign that there is market confidence however this will play out over the weekly and the weekly candle will start to materialize in the next few days.
