XAUUSD D1GoldOANDA:XAUUSDWinlouhXAUUSD D1: Strong Close at the Range Top, Markup Toward FVG and OB Bias: Bullish. The D1 spring held, and Friday’s strong bullish candle closed at the top of the Wyckoff range. A breakout is likely, with targets at the FVG and then the OB. Market structure Decline: The September sell-off from the HIGH at ~4,400 ended in a sharp drop on Sep 26–29, which left an unfilled FVG behind it. Wyckoff range: For two weeks, price ranged between ~4,112 and ~4,195 on D1. Spring: On Oct 7–8, price wicked below the range to the LOW at ~4,066 and closed back inside. Sell-side liquidity was cleared. Friday’s candle: A strong bullish marubozu-style candle rallied +61 (+1.47%) from 4,132 to a close of 4,194.6, with a high of 4,207. It closed right at the Wyckoff top, which shows strong demand. Upside targets: 4,273–4,298: the FVG left by the Sep 26–29 breakdown 4,345–4,378: the bearish OB at the start of the late-September drop ~4,400: the HIGH Scenario (matches your projected path) A brief pullback early in the week to ~4,168 to retest the range top as support. A breakout above 4,207 that runs into the FVG at 4,273–4,298 and fills the imbalance. A pullback to ~4,228 that forms a higher low above the old range. Continuation into the OB at 4,345–4,378. Extended target: A D1 close above the OB at 4,378 would open a retest of the HIGH at ~4,400. Invalidation: A D1 close back below ~4,112, the Wyckoff range low. That would mean the breakout failed and the LOW at 4,066 is back in play. Risks Friday’s close is at the range top, not above it. A Monday rejection from 4,195–4,207 could make the pullback deeper toward 4,150. The FVG is the first real supply zone. Price often stalls there before continuing. The OB at 4,345–4,378 is strong supply below the HIGH. Take profit there and expect a reaction. The market opens Monday after the weekend, so watch the gap. A heavy cluster of US news is marked for Oct 13–16, which could make the move volatile in both directions.
