Let’s dive into the charts and explore this week’s trade setups for EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, and Gold (XAU/USD).

📉 EUR/USD Forecast – Bearish Pressure Builds

Last week, we anticipated downside potential for the Euro, and now we’re seeing price reacting near key resistance zones.

🔹 Weekly Chart Insights:

Our custom Bollinger Band shows the price stalling around the supply zone (last high + broken support), creating strong short-term resistance.

On the daily chart, price has been riding the upper Bollinger Band for over 20 candles—a historical signal of exhaustion.

🔹 MACD Bearish Divergence is in place, increasing the probability of a downside reversal.

📌 Key Zones to Watch:

  • Resistance: 118.10–117.70

 

 

  • If this area holds, potential targets lie at 1.1600, 1.1450, or even lower.

  • If price breaks higher, expect one final push toward 119.00–121.00 before reversal.

📊 Market Momentum Snapshot:

  • Monthly: Down from over +3% to shrinking

  • 7-Day: -1%

  • Indicates buyers losing control—supports the bearish view

Strategy: Watch for retracements to the supply zone for potential short opportunities.


💷 GBP/USD Forecast – Selling the Rallies

The Pound is echoing the Euro’s behavior with clean rejection from a major supply level near 1.3750.

🔹 Daily Chart Highlights:

  • Bearish MACD Divergence

  • Recent false breakout

 

 

 

  • Followed by massive engulfing candle

 

 

 

  • Suggests short-term momentum is flipping bearish

 

 

📌 Targets:

  • Immediate: 1.3400

  • Extended: 1.3200–1.3100

 

 

📊 Market Numbers:

  • Monthly: Now negative

  • 7-Day: Nearly -2%

  • 24H: Over -0.5%

These readings confirm growing bearish momentum.

Strategy: Sell the rallies as long as 1.3750 holds. Corrections expected to deepen before next bullish wave.


💴 USD/JPY Forecast – Prepare for the Range Reversal

Last week, we discussed the likelihood of a ranging scenario before USD/JPY resumes its bearish trend. That setup is unfolding now.

🔹 Key Resistance Area: 148.00–151.00

  • Price approaching supply + previous highs

  • On the 4H chart, a bearish divergence is building

 

 

📊 Trend Snapshot:

  • Monthly: +1.8%

  • 7-Day: +2.9%

  • Price is overextended and due for a technical correction

⚠️ While long-term trend remains uncertain, short-term conditions suggest a pullback is near.

Strategy: Wait for 4H reversal signals around resistance to trigger sell setups. Watch divergence + candle formations closely.


🪙 Gold (XAU/USD) Forecast – Bearish Pressure Mounting

Gold is still in overbought territory, both on the monthly and weekly charts.

🔹 Technical Picture:

  • Riding upper Bollinger Band for over 20 weeks

  • Reaching dynamic resistance level 2 on custom indicators

 

 

 

 

📌 Key Resistance Zone: 3390–3405
📌 Final Push Zone: Possibly 3500+ before real selloff begins

🔁 Two Scenarios to Watch:

  1. Fake breakout above 3500 → then strong bearish divergence → major reversal

 

 

  1. Zigzag range develops under current resistance → break lower toward 3100

 

 

Strategy: Look for bearish setups under key resistance. Ideal: sell after fake highs or break of range support.

🔧 Pro Trading Tip

Every forecast above is paired with two scenarios. Why? Because great trading is not about being right — it’s about being ready. Let the market confirm the bias. Use your system, manage risk, and execute only when the structure and confirmation align.

Following 11+ years of trading experience, trading my own accounts as well as for hedge funds and brokerages, I have decided to fulfill my destiny and to personally mentor Forex and Commodities traders. When I released the “Broker Nightmare” (software that hides trades from brokers) 8 years ago, I found an overwhelming number of frustrated people who genuinely wanted to learn how to trade the Forex market, but instead found themselves scammed and misled. Over the years I have also release other trading systems based on my trading strategies, and met a lot of people on my worldwide Forex seminars. We’ve formed a close Forex community and we meet once or twice a year in various locations in Europe.
