Gold is trading around $4,327 after a strong recovery from the low area near $4,024. Price has already created CHoCH, reclaimed short-term structure, and is now moving toward the buy-side liquidity around $4,363.
From an SMC perspective, the market swept sell-side liquidity first, then reacted strongly from the lower demand area. The current structure supports a bullish continuation scenario for the start of the week, especially while gold holds above the key buy zones below.
The main upside target is the FVG zone around $4,425–$4,455. I prefer to wait for price to pull back into clean liquidity areas instead of chasing the current move.
Buy setup 1
Condition:
Gold pulls back into the nearest liquidity zone and shows bullish rejection with lower-timeframe MSS / CHOCH.
Entry: $4,295–$4,310
SL: below $4,275
TP1: $4,363
TP2: $4,425
TP3: $4,455
Buy setup 2
Condition:
Gold fills the gap into the OB / FVG area and buyers defend the zone clearly.
Entry: $4,205–$4,220
SL: below $4,180
TP1: $4,295
TP2: $4,363
TP3: $4,425
Buy setup 3
Condition:
If gold makes a deeper pullback into the FVG + CHoCH zone, I will wait for strong bullish rejection before considering a buy.
Entry: $4,105–$4,125
SL: below $4,075
TP1: $4,205
TP2: $4,295
TP3: $4,363
Sell setup
Condition:
Selling is not the priority. A sell setup is only considered if gold rejects strongly from the $4,425–$4,455 FVG target zone and prints bearish MSS / CHOCH.
Entry: $4,425–$4,455 after rejection
SL: above $4,475
TP1: $4,363
TP2: $4,310
TP3: $4,220
Key levels
Current price area: $4,327
Buy 1 liquidity zone: $4,295–$4,310
Buy 2 OB / gap fill zone: $4,205–$4,220
Buy 3 FVG + CHoCH zone: $4,105–$4,125
Buy-side liquidity: $4,363
Main FVG target: $4,425–$4,455
Bullish invalidation: clean 1H close below $4,075
My early week view is bullish while gold holds above the major buy zones. The best Prime Gold plan is to wait for price to return into liquidity, confirm rejection, and then follow the next upside move.
