#XAU ⚡ **$XAU /USDT — LIQUIDITY SWEPT. WAITING FOR CONFIRMATION.
Price swept SSL at **4 156** and surged to **4 206**. The key question is whether buyers can hold the structure.
🎯 **POI: 4 156–4 165**
🟢 **LONG**
- **Condition:** Return to the POI, sweep of local lows, and an M5 close above the local high (bullish MSS).
- **Entry:** On a retest of the broken level after MSS, around **4 165–4 172**.
- **Invalidation:** Break below the low of the confirmed liquidity sweep; indicative SL — **4 150**.
- **Targets:** TP1 **4 197**, TP2 **4 206**.
🔴 **SHORT**
- **Condition:** M5 close below **4 156**, followed by a retest of the zone from below and a bearish reaction.
- **Entry:** After a confirmed rejection of a move back above the POI.
- **Invalidation:** Move back above the retest high; **4 170** is an indicative SL if it is above the local swing.
- **Target:** The next local liquidity below the range.
⚠️ No confirmation, no trade. The POI is not the Entry; the stop is determined by the actual structure, not just a round number.
👇 **Which scenario will be confirmed first — LONG or SHORT?**
