Didn’t expect this one, but feels good to hit a milestone like this 😄

Curious what was your first achievement on Reddit?

S&P 500 HITS NEW ALL-TIME HIGH 🚀

Strong momentum and broad optimism continue to drive bullish sentiment across the market.

Where have all the bears gone?

I’ve seen traders strongly divided on this.

Some rely purely on charts and price action, while others focus on macro, news, and fundamentals.

In your experience, what actually works better in real trading and why?

Gold didn’t move randomly here the price action was quite structured.

Price first pushed below recent lows, taking out stop losses resting under support.

This created what looks like a breakdown, but instead it acted as a liquidity sweep.

Right after clearing those lows, price reversed strongly and moved higher.

This kind of move often traps sellers who enter late on the breakdown.

At the same time, the macro side supported the move:

👉US Dollar showed weakness

👉Bond yields moved lower

Both of these typically favor gold strength, which likely added momentum to the upside.

From my perspective, the sequence was:

• Liquidity below lows was taken

• Sellers got trapped after the breakdown

• Price reversed with strong intent

• Macro conditions aligned with the move

That’s why the upside move was sharp rather than gradual.

Do you see this as continuation after the liquidity grab,

or a temporary move before price rotates back into the range?
