#GOLD#XAUUSD update β Daily vs last weekβs weekly map
Last week (24 Aug): weekly at ~4,607, testing the gray 4,600β4,700 zone. Path was break 4,700 β higher low β 5,764. Rule: weekly close above 4,700 = continuation; loss of the rising dotted trendline = deeper correction.
What printed: tagged 4,693β4,697, no close above 4,700, then Friday dumped ~3% into 4,455. First half of the map happened. The breakout higher did not.
Daily now:
Price broke prior August supply, tagged the gray box, and was rejected. Short-term rising line from early Aug is undercut. RSI rolled over from ~80 β normal after the rally off July ~4,000, not a trend-kill by itself. June/July bullish RSI divergences still sit under the low; they called the bounce, they donβt guarantee the next leg starts immediately.
Projected path is the same idea as last week (push, dip that holds the rising dotted line, then higher). Timing changed: the dip is happening before the 4,700 break, not after.
Levels
Resistance: 4,600β4,693 gray zone. Until recaptured, rallies are still βsell the box.β
Target if it is recaptured and held: 5,764 unchanged.
Near support: 4,400β4,450.
Structural support: weekly rising dotted trendline.
Deeper-correction line: 4,019 July low.
Two scenarios
Hold 4,400β4,450, print a higher low on the dotted line, re-attack 4,693. Weekly close back above the zone re-arms the path to 5,200 then 5,764.
Lose ~4,350 with range expansion β 4,200s then 4,019 come into play. Still a correction inside the larger uptrend unless the weekly trendline also breaks.
This weekβs decision
Reclaim 4,600 β last weekβs map is back. Chop 4,400β4,600 β wait for the higher low. Daily close under ~4,350 β give the deeper-correction case more weight.
Gray zone did its job. Weekly trendline has not been tested yet. That line still decides pause vs change of character.
#GOLD#XAUUSD
The Global currency debasement is in full swing and will continue to gain momentum.
XAUUSD Weekly Chart (as of 24 Aug 2026)
Gold is at 4,607, recovering from the July lows (~4,000) after a March peak near 5,300.
Key levels
Immediate resistance: gray zone around 4,600-4700
Support: rising dotted trendline (still intact)
Potential upside target marked: 5,764
Structure
Larger uptrend remains intact. Price is testing prior supply after a sharp rebound.
The drawn path expects a break of 4,700, a higher low, then a strong advance toward the mid-to-high 5,000s.
Decision point
Weekly close above 4,700 keeps the bullish continuation scenario alive. Failure and a break of the rising trendline would signal a deeper correction.

The 10-year rolling change in the US dollar remains one of the most important macro developments in the world today.
We are likely witnessing the beginning of a secular decline in the dollar β a necessary adjustment to the significant trade deficit the US economy faces today.
At the same time:
The rest of the world can hardly tolerate another sustained period of dollar strength.
The suppression of yields and a structurally weaker dollar are likely to be two of the defining macro forces of this decade.

π¨ A $10,000 gold forecast just got amplified by President Trump.
@JamesGRickards believes gold could reach $10,000 before the end of 2026, with $20,000 βnot out of the question.β
Now, President Trump has shared Rickardsβ message on Truth Social, putting an already bold gold thesis in front of a much wider audience.
But the numbers are only part of the story.
Rickardsβ outlook centres on forces already shaping the gold market:
π Geopolitical uncertainty
πΊπΈ US national debt above $40 trillion
π΅ Pressure on currencies and confidence
π§ Shifting liquidity across financial markets
π₯ Demand for gold as a store of value
The significance isnβt that $10K or $20K gold is guaranteed.
Itβs that the debate around gold, debt and confidence in the financial system is reaching an increasingly mainstream audience.
And when a sitting US President amplifies that conversation, itβs worth paying attention. π

Smart glasses are shaping up to be the next mobile phones**βnot as a sudden replacement, but as the natural evolution of personal computing that finally moves technology out of our hands and into our field of view.
Think of todayβs models as the early Nokia 3310 of this new category: simple, durable, and foundational. This is the time to invest in the companies building them.
On the platform side that means **$META **, **$AAPL **, **$GOOGL **, and **$SNAP **. For pure-play AR hardware look at **VUZI**. The critical enablers sit further down the stackβ**$QCOM ** for the silicon, **$POET ** and **$SOTGY** for photonics and optics, **$HIMX ** for display drivers, **$SONY ** for sensors and imaging, and even **$EL ** through its fashion and eyewear partnerships.
These are the names that will matter if smart glasses follow the same adoption curve the mobile phone once did.

Global Military industrial complex money flow. #war#NATO#followthemoney
Looking to 2035, the biggest variable is NATOβs new target: at least 3.5% of GDP on core defence (up to 5% including broader security spending).
If even partially delivered, this would be one of the largest shifts in the global defence spending map this century and a major boost for European industry.
Where the money is currently going: still dominated by the big US primes (Lockheed Martin, RTX, Northrop Grumman, Boeing, General Dynamics). European firms, particularly Rheinmetall and others, are seeing the fastest order growth. On the technology side, priorities are shifting toward AI/autonomy, drones and mass, hypersonics, space, undersea systems, and multi-domain command networks.

I think it's absolutely incredible seeing these humanoids challenge each other in these games. These humanoids will change the world. That's why I have a dedicated watchlist just for Humanoids.
$POET Im adding to my watchlist. POET owns a patented wafer-level Optical Interposer that could make AI data-center optical engines cheaper,
smaller and more scalable and after raising $550M+ in 2026 it has $796M cash to fund the production ramp. The stock is a leveraged
bet on that ramp succeeding in 2027.

Bessent is in panic mode... he intervened to support the yen.
To prevent Japan from selling even more US assets, he joined Japan in a massive coordinated intervention.
But instead of selling USD, the US sold EUR.
To keep this war going, the US has to bail out major holders of US assets to prevent them from selling... especially Treasuries.
The US simply can't afford this war, which is why it only escalates when markets are closed.
Over the past few months, China's largest banks have quietly moved to end paper gold trading for individual customers across the country. The Industrial and Commercial Bank of China makes it final on July 24.
The official line is that this protects ordinary people from a volatile market. I don't buy it.
I think we're watching the moment China stops accepting the West's paper price for gold and starts letting real metal set its own.

SILVER MINERS REVOLT: KEITH NEUMEYER DEMANDS NEW PRICING SYSTEM TO ESCAPE BANK MANIPULATION
Keith Neumeyer, CEO of First Majestic Silver, just delivered a bold message at the Rick Rule Symposium. He exposed how banks manipulate silver prices through paper markets and called on miners to break free by building their own pricing system. This idea could reshape the entire silver industry for years to come.
THE RIGGED GAME
β‘οΈ Keith Neumeyer calls the current silver pricing system a complete scam controlled by banks through the COMEX and LBMA.
β‘οΈ First Majestic and other miners produce real physical silver but have no say in setting its price unlike almost every other industry on earth.
β‘οΈ Banks closely track future mine production and use that knowledge to hedge positions and keep prices artificially low.
THE BOLD SOLUTION
β‘οΈ Keith Neumeyer is urging silver mining CEOs to come together and create their own independent pricing mechanism immediately.
β‘οΈ The industry must stop relying on the bank-run system that has suppressed silver prices for far too long.
β‘οΈ A new producer-led system would finally align prices with actual physical supply and surging global demand.
THE PHYSICAL TRUTH
β‘οΈ Explosive physical demand for silver continues to grow from electronics, solar panels, electric vehicles and everyday household appliances.
β‘οΈ Worldwide silver mine production has remained flat at around 860 million ounces per year for a decade.
β‘οΈ At the same time consumption has risen sharply to 1.3 billion ounces annually creating a massive and growing deficit.
THE BOTTOM LINE
Keith Neumeyer has thrown down the gauntlet. Silver miners have the power to end the manipulation if they act together. The future of fair silver pricing starts with their decision to lead.
This is the sound of an industry finally waking up to its own strength.

Most people read the dollar exactly backwards.
A rising dollar looks like strength. Strong America, good economy, the Fed doing its job. A falling dollar looks like weakness. Inflation, debasement, the end of dollar dominance.
It is the other way around.
A rising dollar usually means global funding is tightening. The world is short of dollars and scrambling to find them. That is not strength. That is stress.
Think of a hurricane coming and everyone rushing to buy bottled water. The price spikes. That does not mean the water got stronger. It means people are scared and desperate.
The dollar works the same way. When it surges against everything at once, it is telling you dollars are getting scarce, not that America is winning.
That is why the dollar spikes in crises. The 1997 Asian crisis. 2008. The 2015 emerging market squeeze. March 2020. The 2024 carry trade blow up. The pattern is not random.
None of this is really about the Fed or money printing. The dollar's exchange value is mechanical. It runs on the eurodollar system, the offshore dollar funding made of bank balance sheets, collateral, repo, and swaps.
The biggest driver is dealer balance sheets. When dealers expand, dollars flow and the world feels calm. When they pull back, dollars get scarce and the dollar climbs.
And this is the part everyone gets wrong. When foreign central banks sell US treasuries, the headlines scream that they are dumping America. They are not.
They are using their reserves exactly as designed. When their markets are short of dollars, they sell treasuries to supply them. Sell treasuries, the dollar goes up. That is stress, not rejection.
Which is why the dollar doom story keeps failing. They said QE would destroy the dollar after 2008. They said the deficits would collapse it. It never happened, because the problem was never too many dollars. It was not enough usable ones in the right places.
So when someone tells you a strong dollar means America is strong, be careful. The strongest looking dollar is often the biggest warning sign. And a falling dollar is usually just the storm passing.
@KinesisMonetary Central banks are just quietly but obviously preparing for the inevitable fiat funeral. You can't print your way out of a sovereign debt spiral, and they know it. Hard money (#Gold) is the only insurance policy left on the table."
