This paper examines technical analysis methods and trading strategies applied to gold (XAU/USD) markets. The study focuses on trend-oriented logic, market structure, and the confirmatory role of momentum indicators such as RSI and MACD. The empirical section is based on a real XAU/USD H1 trading case, incorporating actual entry and exit prices, a structured buy–take table, and profit calculations. The findings demonstrate that technical indicators are methodologically more reliable when used as confirmation tools within a structure-first framework rather than as standalone predictive instruments.
