Executive Summary
Gold Futures (GC1!) enters the final trading stretch of May in a tightly compressed astro-numerical corridor, with price anchored at a harmonic Venus/Saturn square. The market sits just beneath a key resistance confluence at 3375, where Gann geometry, gamma flow, and planetary culmination timings all align. With the gamma flip line below at 3260, traders face a high-stakes decision window.
This forecast synthesizes Gann Square of 9 spirals, Venus and Saturn MC windows, CME options flows, and harmonic degrees into a unified strategy.
Technical Chart Overview (1H Timeframe)
Current Price: $3365 (as of Saturday Night, May 24)
Trend: Weekly bullish extension from 3200 support → pause at 3364
Structure: Topping structure developing below Venus/Saturn square
Volume Delta: +5.1k CVD (since May 21), showing squeeze-on-cover dynamic
Gann Geometry & Square of 9 Levels
√3156 ≈ 56.18
→ 360° up = (56.18 + 1)² = 3,268
→ 180° up = (56.18 + 0.5)² = 3,214
→ 225° up = (56.18 + 0.625)² = 3,227
→ 583° = √3364 → Terminal angle hit last week
Interpretation: Price is rotating upward through a full Gann square, with 3,375 representing the top of a harmonic rotation band. Reversal pressure mounts.
Options Open Interest & Gamma Mapping
Contracts Analyzed: G4WK5, G5RK5, OG5K5
| Zone | Price Range | Dealer Behavior |
|---|---|---|
| 3360–3375 | Gamma wall, Square of 9 resistance | Overhedged zone – short setup trigger |
| 3300–3325 | Balanced OI band, Saturn harmonic | Market equilibrium zone |
| 3260.8 | Gamma flip line | Below here → dealer short gamma triggers volatility |
| 3225 | Put-heavy cluster zone | Flush trap / tactical long if tested |
| 3200 | Max Put Wall (multi-expiry) | Structural gamma base / panic floor |
OI Skew: Dealers are long puts and exposed short calls above 3360 — supporting fade setups above that zone.
Volume & Psychological Analysis
- Retail sentiment turned euphoric post-May 22 breakout
- Price touched Square of 9 583° (3364), triggering harmonic exhaustion
- Saturn’s influence capping risk appetite; Venus trine Pluto adds emotional climax

Planetary Timing: Venus & Saturn (Chicago)
Midheaven (MC) Culmination Windows
| Planet | Time (CST) | Role |
|---|---|---|
| Saturn | 07:22–07:30 AM | Structural ceiling timing |
| Venus | 08:47–08:48 AM | Emotional/harmonic reversal |
RA-Based Price Projections (Harmonic Spiral Mapping)
| Planet | Longitude (°) | Spiral Used | Gann Price Zone |
|---|---|---|---|
| Venus | 334–337 | 9 × 360 | 3,374–3,377 🟡 |
| Saturn | 357 | 9 × 360 | 3,597 🔵 |
Final Synthesis: Price × Time × Sentiment
| Price Level | Source(s) | Label |
|---|---|---|
| 3,375 | Venus harmonic (May 30), MC conjunction | Top fade zone |
| 3,364 | Square of 9 (583°), call wall | Harmonic exhaustion |
| 3,325 | Saturn projection, Gann ½ retracement | Pivot / decision line |
| 3,300 | Gamma transition zone | Midpoint battleground |
| 3,260.8 | Gamma flip line | Volatility trigger |
| 3,225 | Put OI + Gann Square (225° from 3156) | Flush trap support |
| 3,200 | Max gamma put wall, astro support | Capitulation base |
Strategic Map & Action Plan
| Price Zone | Strategy Recommendation |
|---|---|
| 3360–3375 | Fade longs – astro+gamma+Gann converge into Venus climax |
| 3300–3250 | Monitor dealer gamma behavior and Saturn MC impact |
| Tag 3,225 | Watch for bounce — astro/gamma support in play |
| Break 3,260 | Volatility expands — scalp toward 3,225 / 3,200 |
| Move above 3,375 | Target 3,390–3,420; extreme = 3,597 (Saturn harmonic) |
Timing Windows (Chicago Local Time)
| Date | Event |
|---|---|
| May 27–30 | Saturn & Venus MC overlap (07:30–08:50 AM CST) |
| May 30 (Fri) | Venus culmination + Pluto trine = top window |
| May 31 (Sat) | Astro echo carries to Monday open — watch gap logic |
Cheat Sheet Summary
- Gamma Flip Zone: 3260.8
- Resistance Zone: 3360–3375
- Support Zones: 3225 (flush) / 3200 (gamma base)
- Astro Timing Window: 07:30–08:50 AM CST (daily)
- Cycle Reversal Target: 3,374–3,377 (Venus harmonic square)
Final Forecast
Gold Futures are entering a cosmic compression point, with price locked in a harmonic echo chamber between 3,225 and 3,375. With Square of 9 geometry and CME gamma flows colliding at Venus and Saturn culmination hours, a sharp directional decision is imminent. If the 3,375 zone holds during Friday’s Venus-Pluto peak, expect a fade into gamma-controlled reversion. If broken, Saturn’s gate at 3,597 becomes the magnet.
