XAU/USD Analysis Today: Key Levels to Watch on September 24, 2026

Image
  Gold Price Analysis September 24, 2026 It is still a bearish sentiment for gold today, and it is more or less the same story I have been seeing over the past couple of weeks. US Treasury yields remain elevated, while the US dollar is still relatively firm. At the same time, Fed officials continue to highlight the risk of persistent inflation and the potential need for a stricter monetary policy. So, from a broader macroeconomic perspective, the current environment remains bearish for gold. On the technical side, gold has broken below the 4,300 level and continues to form a downtrend, with a series of lower highs and lower lows . My downside targets are around 4,250 , followed potentially by 4,225 , which was the previous weekly low. Ideally, I would prefer to see the price move back toward the 4,300 area first. If gold then gets rejected around this level and resumes its downtrend, I would have more confidence in staying with the bearish view. For now, 4,300 is the key level I...

Gold Price Analysis: Key Levels to Watch This Week

Gold Price Analysis: Key Levels to Watch This Week Gold Technical Analysis: 4,400 in Focus Key Gold Levels 4,400 — Key level to watch 4,460 — Recent recovery area 4,500 — Key breakout level 4,690 — Recent swing high 4,250 — Potential downside retest Gold could make a significant move this week, with 4,400 emerging as a key level to watch closely. Last week, gold sold off after the Fed raised interest rates to 4% , before buyers stepped in and pushed the price back toward 4,460 . This week, the main level to monitor is 4,400 . How gold reacts around this area could provide clues about its next major move. If gold holds above this level and breaks through 4,500 , attention could shift toward the recent swing high around 4,690 . However, if gold is rejected around the key resistance levels, particularly following last week's FOMC and US economic data , the market could see a deeper pullback. In that scenario, 4,250 becomes an important downside level to watch. Bottom ...

Image
The overall bias is bearish A strong US dollar Elevated US Treasury yields and real yields A relatively hawkish Federal Reserve Ongoing US–Iran and Strait of Hormuz tensions creating additional market uncertainty Gold remains bearish, pressured by a strong US dollar, high yields, and a hawkish Fed. Traders are watching 4,375–4,385 for a pullback, with downside targets at 4,334, 4,322, and 4,300.   Gold Price Outlook: Bearish Fundamentals Remain in Focus Gold remains under pressure from a strong US dollar, elevated Treasury yields, and a hawkish Fed , which increase the opportunity cost of holding gold. Meanwhile, renewed US–Iran tensions and risks around the Strait of Hormuz are adding market uncertainty. These geopolitical risks could either reinforce volatility or trigger renewed safe-haven demand for gold. Gold Technical Analysis: 4,375–4,385 Is the Key Pullback Zone From a technical perspective, the short-term structure remains bearish. The key area I am watching is ap...

Why Not Trading Is Sometimes the Best Trade

Image
In trading, one of the hardest lessons to learn is that you don’t always need to be in the market . You Don’t Need a Trade Every Day Trust Your Trading Strategy The Worst Thing You Can Do Is Force a Trade Patience Is Part of Trading Stop Measuring Your Success by Trade Frequency Final Thoughts Improvements Summary I haven’t taken a single trade in three days—and I’m happy as shit about it. Why? Because my trading strategy is designed to keep me out of the market when conditions aren’t optimal for my style of trading . If my setup isn’t there, there’s nothing to force. And that mindset can make a huge difference in your trading performance. If you go one day without trading, you start wondering: “Am I missing something?” Then a few days become a week, and suddenly you feel like you need to do something. That’s where problems begin. If your trading strategy is built around specific market conditions, there will naturally be periods when those conditions simply don’t appear.  That do...

Why Futures Trading Is One of the Best Markets for Day Traders

Image
Everyone keeps asking me, “What’s the best market to trade?” I’ve been trading for over four years, and I’ve traded pretty much everything—options, stocks, forex, futures, and even a little bit of crypto.  After spending time in each market, I’d say futures are the best market to trade , especially if you’re a newer trader. First, there are some major advantages when it comes to trading flexibility.  Futures don’t have the same PDT restrictions that apply to many stock and options accounts, so you can make as many day trades as you want. And unlike stocks, you don’t have to deal with unsettled funds. That’s something a lot of people overlook. Another major advantage is the cost. Futures typically have relatively low fees and commissions, and you can start with a smaller account by trading micro contracts.  You can choose your level of exposure depending on the contract you trade, from relatively small dollar movements with micros to much larger moves with minis. You...

Daily Day Trading option: SPCX

If you weren't paying attention to these three stocks from Monday's trading session, you might be missing out on something significant. August has been one of the craziest months of the year, and over the last few weeks, the watchlist has consistently highlighted some of the biggest stocks in the market. Now we're heading into the final week of the month. And with that in mind, the top stock for tomorrow is setting up for a massive daily breakout. First on our list is a slight shift in focus: SPCX . I can already hear what you're thinking: "SpaceX? Really? That's not typically something you'd include on a watchlist." But I am excited about SpaceX, especially after its IPO. The stock is showing strength with a double-bottom pattern, and I'm watching to see whether it can continue holding the $125 level , which is also near the daily 20 moving average. If that level holds, the stock could potentially make its way back toward previous highs above $150...

Now August has been one of the craziest months of the year and the last few weeks the watchlist has given you the biggest stocks in the market every single week. And now this is the start of the last week of the month. But that being said, the top stock for tomorrow is a massive daily breakout waiting to happen. First on our list is a slight shift in focus. It pertains to SPC X. Now, I can already hear your thoughts: "SpaceX? Really? This isn't typically something you'd include on a watchlist." I am excited about SpaceX, especially after its IPO. It shows strength with double bottoms and I’m watching for it to maintain the $125 level near the daily 20 moving average. If it holds, it could reach previous highs above $150. Additionally, DXST, which surged 40% in after-hours trading, also looks promising, though I'm cautious a...
