MASON XAUUSD – Downtrend Still Dominates, Rebound Is SecondaryGoldOANDA:XAUUSDMason_Drake XAUUSD is trading around 4,062 after another strong bearish move. Price remains below the Ichimoku cloud and below the broken trendline, so the main structure is still bearish. The primary view is sell continuation, while the secondary scenario is a short technical rebound before the next confirmation. Technical View Gold is still moving under clear bearish pressure after breaking the previous trendline support. The latest reaction around 4,054 shows that price is testing a strong liquidity area, but buyers have not confirmed a real reversal yet. Price Action is still forming lower highs and lower lows. This means any recovery should be treated as a pullback unless gold can break back above the confirmation level at 4,145. Ichimoku also supports the bearish structure. Price is below the cloud, and the cloud above price is acting as resistance. As long as gold stays below the cloud, sellers still have better control. The 4,106–4,111 area is the first sell zone. If price rebounds into this zone and rejects, the downside move may continue toward 4,054 and 4,024. The second sell area is around 4,175–4,195. This zone is stronger but needs clear bearish rejection before any sell setup. Key Zones Current price: 4,062 Strong liquidity: 4,054 Medium-term downtrend confirmation: 4,024 Sell zone 1: 4,106–4,111 Buy recovery confirmation: 4,145 Sell zone 2: 4,175–4,195 Resistance: 4,221 Psychological target: 3,960–3,975 Invalidation: above 4,221 Trading Plan Sell Priority: 4,106–4,111 Condition: wait for bearish rejection, lower high, or failed recovery above the broken trendline. SL: above 4,145 TP1: 4,054 TP2: 4,024 TP3: 3,960–3,975 Second Sell Setup Sell Zone: 4,175–4,195 Condition: only consider this zone if gold rebounds deeper and rejects below the Ichimoku cloud. SL: above 4,221 TP1: 4,106 TP2: 4,054 TP3: 4,024 Alternative Scenario If gold breaks and holds above 4,145, a short recovery wave may appear toward 4,175–4,195. However, this is still only a rebound unless price breaks above 4,221. Buy View Buy is not the priority while price stays below the Ichimoku cloud. A buy setup only becomes safer if gold holds above 4,145 and confirms strength back into the cloud. Final View Overall, gold is still in a bearish structure. The cleaner plan is to wait for a rebound into resistance, then look for sell confirmation. If 4,054 and 4,024 fail, the psychological target around 3,960–3,975 may become the next focus. Will gold rebound into the sell zone first, or continue straight toward the psychological target?
