Long Setup
🟢 TP (Target) 4.821 +30.9 points (+0.644%)
🔵 Entry 4.790 Current order block zone
🔴 SL (Stop) 4.759 −30.9 points (−0.644%)
CRV 1:1 Basic Setup
Rationale for the Levels
Entry 4.790: Exactly within the red order block/supply zone, where the volume profile shows the strongest demand. The bias is “High” (bullish) and the LT BOS (Break of Structure) is confirmed as bullish.
Stop 4.759: Below the local swing structure and below the 0.618 Fib level. The actual swing low is at 4.736 (Delta Tank) – 4.759 makes sense for a tighter stop.
TP1 4.821: First resistance zone in the volume profile (turquoise cluster). This is the conservative target.
TP2: 4.835 (last swing high, let the rest run)

Key takeaways:

- Balance perfectly matched (373 = 373) – no delivery stress today.
📋 Trade Plan
Entry (Long): 4,790 – re-entry on kNN support + green absorption signal
Stop Loss: 4,759 (below kNN lower boundary)
TP1: 4,821 (mid kNN projection)
TP2: 4,835 (upper kNN projection)
Invalidation: M30 close below 4,759
💡 Conclusion
Short-term price weakness is technical and rollover-driven, not a reflection of fading demand. Physical gold demand remains exceptionally strong. Institutional players – including Wells Fargo on their own account – are actively accumulating physical gold for delivery on April 22nd. The fundamental backdrop strongly supports the long bias.
