XAUUSD 1H – Range Strategy with Breakout and Pullback
On the 1H timeframe, Gold is trading inside a clear range between resistance at 4,371 and support at 4,300. I am watching multiple scenarios based on price reaction at these levels.
Key Levels:
Resistance: 4,371.49 – 4,442.09
Support: 4,300.25 – 4,230.01
Current Price: near 4,341 (mid-range)
Scenario 1 – Bullish from Support:
If price drops to support at 4,300.25 and shows bullish confirmation on a lower timeframe, I will look for long entries.
Entry: From support zone after confirmation
Stop Loss: Below 4,280
Target 1: 4,371.49
Target 2: 4,442.09 (if resistance breaks)
Invalidation: Price closes below 4,280
Scenario 2 – Bearish Breakdown:
If price breaks below support at 4,300.25 with a confirmed close, wait for a pullback to the broken level as resistance. After bearish confirmation, enter short.
Entry: On pullback to 4,300.25 after confirmation
Stop Loss: Above 4,330
Target: 4,230.01
Invalidation: Price closes back above 4,300.25
Scenario 3 – Bullish Breakout:
If price breaks above resistance at 4,371.49 with a confirmed close, I expect continuation up to 4,442.09.
Entry: Above 4,371.49 after confirmation (or on pullback)
Stop Loss: Below 4,330
Target: 4,442.09
Invalidation: Price closes back below 4,371.49
Pro Tips:
1. Do not trade in the middle of the range. Wait for price to reach key levels.
2. Always wait for confirmation on lower timeframes.
3. A breakout above 4,371 could open the door to 4,442.
4. A breakdown below 4,300 could send price to 4,230.
5. Patience is key.
My Personal View:
I am watching 4,300 support for a potential long and 4,371 resistance for a potential breakout or rejection. If price breaks below 4,300 with confirmation, I will look for shorts to 4,230. Let price come to the levels first.
