GOLD CONSOLIDATES FOR BREAKOUT - BITCOIN FACES CORRECTION PRESSURE: TRADING STRATEGY FEB 27

Release Time: 10:00, February 27, 2026 Issuer: Mr. Leon

MARKET OVERVIEW

1. Stock Market:

  • Vietnam Market: After pulling back to retest the MA(50) support zone around 1,780 points earlier this month, the VN-Index has demonstrated a successful Shake-out reaction. Currently, the index is striving to build an Ascending Base and is approaching the psychological resistance zone of 1,820 - 1,850 points.

  • US Market: Following the "bloodbath" sell-off in early February driven by concerns over AI infrastructure investment costs, the S&P 500 has found an equilibrium point around 6,750 points and is experiencing a Technical Rebound back to the 6,920 mark. However, the recovery candlestick structure is quite fragmented, and the up-days are accompanied by declining volume, indicating hesitation from smart money.

2. Forex:

  • EUR/USD: Dominant trend is Sideways. Daily resistance: 1.18200; Daily support: 1.17800. Consider Short positions when the price breaks below the daily support zone.

  • AUD/USD: Dominant trend is Bullish. Daily resistance: 0.71400; Daily support: 0.70700. Consider Long positions when the price breaks above the daily resistance zone.

3. Gold:

  • Performance & Structure: Gold is currently trading around $5,190 and entering a very clear Consolidation phase. After the decline from the peak, the price is being compressed under a diagonal resistance Trendline (the blue slanting line connecting the lower highs). This price action acts more like "digesting" profit-taking pressure rather than a sell-off.

  • Momentum: The most notable point lies in the Stochastic indicator. After being pressed down for a while, the signal lines have now fallen into the extreme Oversold zone (below the 20 level) and are starting to twist, showing signs of crossing upward.

4. Oil:

  • XTI/USD: Dominant trend is Sideways. Daily resistance: 66.80; Daily support: 63.70. Consider Short positions when the price breaks below the daily support zone.

5. Bitcoin:

  • Performance & Structure: Unlike the calm price compression of Gold, Bitcoin is exhibiting very loose oscillation margins. After a strong bounce hitting the $68,500 mark, the price encountered heavy supply and is currently pulling back to around $67,453. Broadly speaking, BTC remains stuck in a complex choppy structure following the deep crash on Feb 05.

  • Momentum: Signals from Stochastic are warning of short-term risks. This indicator has just touched the extreme Overbought threshold (above 80) and is bending downward sharply.

RECOMMENDATIONS:

1. GBP/USD:

  • Sell Stop: 1.34400

  • Stop Loss: 1.36000

  • Take Profit: 1.31100

2. GOLD:

  • Buy Limit: 5160

  • Stop Loss: 5150

  • Take Profit: 5200
