Gold (MGC) Pre-London Analysis | Waiting for ConfirmationMicro Gold FuturesCOMEX_MINI:MGC1!DWoodzAfter yesterday's aggressive selloff, price is finally reaching an area that could attract buyers. We're now testing a 1H Bullish Fair Value Gap, which lines up with an area where I would expect responsive buying if this move lower is simply a liquidity grab. My Current Read Although I've been leaning bearish, this isn't an area where I want to blindly continue selling. This 1H Bullish FVG is my first location where I want to see how price reacts. Scenario 1 (Bullish): Buyers defend the FVG. We begin putting in higher lows. Price starts reclaiming 4100 and attacks the previous daily high. If that happens, the larger H4 bearish FVG around 4145-4155 becomes my next area of interest to look for shorts. Scenario 2 (Bearish): Price slices straight through this FVG. No meaningful reaction. Acceptance below this zone tells me buyers aren't defending it. Then I'd expect continuation toward previous daily low and eventually lower weekly objectives. What I'm Watching The key isn't whether price touches the FVG... It's how it leaves it. A strong rejection with aggressive buying tells me the market found support. Weak bounces that immediately get sold back into usually tell me sellers are still in control. As always, I don't want to predict direction—I want to react to what order flow shows me. With London Kill Zone approaching, patience is more valuable than trying to catch the first move. Current Bias: Neutral to Slightly Bearish until buyers prove otherwise. What do you guys see here? Is this 1H FVG enough to produce a bounce, or are we headed for another leg lower?
