BUY XAUUSD – 5002.98

The trade is entered at 5002.98 as price breaks above a well‑defined order‑block and an equal high‑low sweep on the 4‑hour chart, confirming a bullish sweep with high volume, while the stop is placed at the underlying structure (4991.48). The H4 timeframe shows a 52 % bullish bias, and although the broader multi‑timeframe view is neutral, the confluence of the order‑block, volume surge and support‑resistance alignment creates a strong technical case. Fundamentally, US headline CPI eased to 2.4 % YoY, below expectations, reinforcing expectations of a more dovish Federal Reserve and possible rate cuts, which traditionally boost gold as a safe‑haven asset. The recent strength of the US dollar has pressured gold, but the emerging inflation data and potential policy easing are likely to reverse that pressure, providing additional upside support. Together, the technical breakout and the favorable macro backdrop justify a bullish position with tiered profit targets at 5011.03, 5017.93 and 5031.73.
