The $3,500 per ounce target we wrote about at the beginning of the month has long been surpassed. Gold continues to storm new highs and has already gained nearly 7% in value since the start of the month.


According to our heatmap, a 0.68-lot trade opened at the beginning of the month could have earned up to $16,000!


What’s driving the market now:

• Strong inflows into ETFs and “safe-haven” funds — institutional demand remains high.
  
  
• Expectations of a Fed rate cut in the fall are boosting defensive assets.
  
  
• A weaker dollar makes gold even more attractive for international investors.
  
  
• Growing demand from central banks (especially in Asia) is intensifying supply shortages.
  
  
• Geopolitical tensions are adding a “risk premium” to prices.
  
  

Analysts from FreshForex note that the market has already seen historical peaks of $3,700/oz, so the $3,750 zone remains a natural target if these drivers persist. In the medium term, UBS and ANZ have raised their forecasts: $3,800 by the end of 2025 (with potential toward ~$3,900–4,000 in 2026).

Don’t wait for a pullback — gold may continue rewriting the record books!

Indicators are smart tools that analyze market data and display additional insights directly on the chart — including trends, support/resistance levels, price momentum, and overbought/oversold zones.

Unlike scripts that execute a one-time task, indicators constantly monitor price action and help traders make informed decisions. They don’t open or close trades automatically — their main job is analysis. The key advantage? Indicators eliminate emotional bias. They don’t guess — they calculate. Signals are generated based on precise formulas and algorithms, making your trading more systematic and disciplined.



Here are 3 highly practical indicators available in MetaTrader 5:

1. Anchored VWAP Indicator

An advanced version of the classic VWAP (Volume Weighted Average Price) — this one lets you set an “anchor point” at key events like session open, important support/resistance levels, or major news.

Trading advantages:

• Dynamic support/resistance zones based on volume

• Fair value analysis after major events

• Great as a directional filter: above anchored VWAP = bullish bias; below = bearish

2. Trend Catcher with Alert MT5

Trend-focused indicator with clear visual cues and customizable alerts.

Trading advantages:

• Stay informed without staring at the charts — alerts notify you of potential trend shifts

• Adaptable to different strategies: tweak sensitivity for aggressive or conservative trading

• Helps avoid counter-trend entries — key for navigating volatile markets

3. LT Super Trend

A trend indicator designed to simplify the process of identifying market direction and potential reversals.

Trading advantages:

• Clear trend signals: up or down

• Reversal alerts you can use to enter or exit trades

• Simple and intuitive — ideal even for visual traders

All these indicators are 100% free for traders. Installation takes just a few clicks: Anchored VWAP, Trend Catcher with Alert MT5, and LT Super Trend.
