Bearish Plan After The 4,450 BSL Sweep | XAUUSD 17/08GoldOANDA:XAUUSDAdrian_NovaTraderGold swept the 4,450 BSL and rejected the highs, then moved back below the 4,415–4,430 POC. This keeps the short-term structure tilted bearish while price remains below the swept high. For today, my main scenario is a pullback into the 4,415–4,430 POC followed by bearish rejection. I do not want to chase price around 4,390; the cleaner setup is to wait for the retest. 📌 TODAY'S PLAN Bias: Bearish below 4,450 Entry Zone: 4,415–4,430 Preferred Entry: 4,420–4,425 after bearish rejection / CHoCH on lower timeframe SL: 4,452 TP1: 4,360 TP2: 4,325 TP3: 4,310 Risk Management: At an average entry around 4,422, the setup risks roughly 30 points to the invalidation, while TP1 offers around 62 points and TP2 around 97 points. 🔎 What I’m Watching Price retraces into 4,415–4,430. Sellers defend the POC. M5/M15 forms bearish rejection or CHoCH. Price loses the reaction low. Bearish continuation targets 4,360 first, then 4,325–4,310. 📉 Today’s Direction My primary expectation for today is bearish continuation after a POC retest. The key level is 4,450. If H1 price accepts and holds above 4,450, the bearish thesis is invalidated and I would no longer look for the 4,360 → 4,325 → 4,310 path. The main idea is simple: 4,450 BSL Sweep → Rejection → 4,415–4,430 POC Retest → Bearish Confirmation → 4,360 → 4,325 → 4,310 Educational content only.
