Goldoutlook
The weekend closed higher to around 3360
📌 Driving Events
Gold prices (XAU/USD) were on track to rise for the third consecutive day on Friday, climbing to the upper limit of this week's trading range as escalating trade tensions fueled safe-haven demand. Amid a significant intensification of global trade disputes, U.S. President Donald Trump this week sent formal notices to multiple trading partners detailing individual tariff rates that will take effect on August 1 if no agreement is reached. This has disrupted investor sentiment, weighed on risk assets, and provided solid support for gold.
Meanwhile, expectations of an imminent rate cut by the Federal Reserve (Fed) have cooled after last week's strong U.S. jobs data. As a result, the U.S. dollar (USD) remained firm, holding near more than two-week highs set on Thursday. A stronger dollar could limit upside for the non-yielding gold in the short term. Therefore, traders could look for a sustained breakout before going further bullish on the XAU/USD pair.

Trump's new tariffs are coming, will gold soar?
✏Hello everyone, let's comment on the gold price next week (July 7, 2025-July 11, 2025)
. ⭐️Gold Information:
This week, the spot gold price showed a trend of rising first and then falling. From Monday to Wednesday, driven by safe-haven demand and the weakness of the US dollar, the gold price recorded three consecutive increases, climbing rapidly from US$3,271/ounce to the intraday high of US$3,365/ounce on Wednesday afternoon, showing strong upward momentum. However, on Thursday, before the release of the June non-farm payrolls data, market sentiment turned, and the gold price plummeted to US$3,312/ounce, the largest single-day drop in the week. On Friday, affected by the light trading during the US Independence Day holiday, the gold price fluctuated between US$3,330 and US$3,355/ounce, closing at around US$3,337/ounce, up about 1.91% for the week.
U.S. President Donald Trump announced that the U.S. will begin sending formal letters to trading partners on Friday, ahead of a July 9 deadline, outlining new tariffs ranging from 10% to 70%, which will take effect on August 1. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessant added that a series of trade agreements are expected before the deadline, with an estimated 100 countries facing reciprocal tariffs of at least 10%. He also hinted that some agreements will be announced soon.
⭐️Labaron personal comment:
Gold prices continue to consolidate sideways, fluctuating in the 3242-3450 range
The following important key areas have been identified:
Resistance: $3362, $3393, $3446
Support: $3312, $3279, $3241
Gold Pulls Back After Strong US NFP Data📊 Market Overview:
U.S. June Non-Farm Payrolls came in at 147,000 vs. 110,000 expected, strengthening the dollar and reducing expectations for a July Fed rate cut. As a result, gold dropped nearly 1%, trading in the $3,328–3,332 zone
📉 Technical Analysis:
• Key Resistance: $3,350 – $3,360
• Immediate Support: $3,322 – $3,328
• EMA: Price has fallen below the 09 EMA, indicating a bearish short-term trend.
• Candle/Volume/Momentum: A strong bearish candle with increased volume shows significant selling pressure post-NFP
📌 Outlook:
Gold may continue its downtrend in the short term if the dollar remains strong and no fresh bullish triggers emerge. A drop toward $3,322–$3,328 is possible.
💡 Trade Ideas:
🔻 SELL XAU/USD at: $3,342 – $3,345
🎯 TP: $3,322
❌ SL: $3,348
🔺 BUY XAU/USD at: $3,322 – $3,325
🎯 TP: $3,345
❌ SL: $3,316
Gold Setup for July 3th: Don’t Get Caught in the Liquidity Net🌙 Good evening, sniper — lock in, load up, and let’s dance with Thursday’s chaos 💣
🌍 Macro & Geopolitical Pulse
Thursday’s setup is not for amateurs:
🔸 Non-Farm Employment Change
🔸 Unemployment Rate
🔸 Initial Jobless Claims
🔸 ISM Services PMI
🔸 Factory Orders
Add to that:
• A Fed still talking tough on rates
• Geopolitical flare-ups in the Black Sea and Middle East
• Gold trading deep into premium…
💡 This is where markets hunt weak hands, then flip direction without mercy.
We don’t chase candles. We wait for exhaustion. Then we execute.
🎯 Bias Snapshot (D1 → H4 → H1)
• Daily closed bullish but deep into old CHoCH + OB
• H4 printed HHs, but structure now presses into stacked supply
• H1 shows momentum fading — RSI divergence + weakening push
📌 Core bias: Still bullish — but every pip above 3360 is loaded with risk.
If 3380 fails to break cleanly, expect rejection.
If it breaks — the market likely wants full liquidity above 3400.
🗺️ Battlefield Zones
🟢 Buy Zone #1 – 3310 to 3320
The sniper’s discount pullback: Fibo 38.2%, M30 OB, EMA 50, and clean imbalance.
Wait for news spike + bullish confirmation to go long.
🟢 Buy Zone #2 – 3285 to 3295
The deep reaction zone.
Fibo 61.8% + OB + gap. Enter only on violent wick and rejection — but RR is exceptional.
🟡 Flip Zone – 3334 to 3340
This is where momentum flips:
• Hold above = continuation toward premium
• Break below = bearish reversal unlocked
No entries here — this is your compass, not your trigger.
🔴 Sell Zone #1 – 3357 to 3366
Classic CHoCH retest. H1/H4 OB with layered liquidity.
If price rejects here on post-news spike — short it back toward the flip.
🔴 Sell Zone #2 – 3387 to 3395
Top-of-range sweep.
If gold blows through zone 1, this becomes liquidity trap central.
Wait for rejection wick + bearish PA confirmation.
🔴 Sell Zone #3 – 3410 to 3420
The final premium kill zone.
This is where the market finishes stop-hunting every breakout buyer.
Fibo extension 1.272–1.618 hits here. If we wick this zone and stall — sniper short back to 3380–3366.
⚔️ Execution Blueprint
Wait for news to trigger the chaos — early entries are a donation.
Short 3357–3366 on exhaustion → target flip zone.
If price overextends into 3387–3395, get ready for the reversal play.
Extreme spike to 3410–3420? That’s your killshot short — ride it back down.
If price retraces into 3310–3320, it’s your safe sniper long.
Panic into 3285–3295? Deep long entry, only with confirmation.
Watch the flip zone (3334–3340) — above = bullish bias holds; below = bears back in control.
🎯 No guesswork. No hope. Just precision. Wait, confirm, and strike.
💬 Let’s stay sharp tomorrow — market will offer clean setups, but patience and clarity are key.

Gold grows, recovers near 3390
📣Gold News
Gold prices edged higher during the North American trading session as investors turned their attention to the upcoming U.S. non-farm payrolls report (NFP), which could influence the Fed's next policy move.
The latest labor data showed that companies are pausing hiring rather than laying off employees, reflecting caution in an uncertain economic environment. Meanwhile, Microsoft's decision to lay off 9,000 employees has heightened concerns about a weak labor market.
Traders are currently awaiting the official employment report from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics on Thursday, which is expected to show 110,000 new jobs in June, down from 139,000 in May. The unemployment rate is expected to rise slightly to 4.3%, still within the 4.4% range of its forecast according to the Fed's latest summary of economic projections.
📣 Technical Analysis
NF is worth buying before the news release, holding. The dollar continues to be under selling pressure from investors worried about the Trump administration's erratic tariff policy.
💰Set Gold Price:
💰Sell Gold Zone: 3390-3398 SL 3405
TP1: 3380 USD
TP2: 3363 USD

TP3: 3330 USD
⭐️Technical Analysis:
Set reasonable buy orders based on technical indicators EMA 34, EMA89 and support and resistance areas.
Short-term opportunities are imminent.Gold prices have continued to rebound recently and have reached around 3358, but there is a lack of effective retracement during the rise, and the risk of short-term chasing has increased significantly. From a technical perspective, the US dollar index has a demand for a corrective rebound after a rapid decline, and it is expected to form a significant suppression on gold in the short term, limiting the rebound space of gold prices. From a capital perspective, the previous high-level long chips have gradually been untied and started to leave the market with profits, and selling pressure has gradually emerged; short positions may be re-arranged after completing concentrated stop losses, and the market structure is quietly changing.
Based on the above factors, it is recommended that traders remain patient and continue to hold short positions, focusing on the support of the 3335-3325 area. Be sure to control your position during the operation, strictly set stop losses, and avoid the high risks brought by chasing the rise. The core of trading is to follow the trend, respect the market rhythm, and wait for the adjustment to be confirmed before intervening.
Steady trading can only make long-term profits. Welcome everyone to share and communicate to improve the operation level together.
6.30 Four-hour resistance determines the strength of the reboundAt the weekly level, the short-term focus is on the adjustment and continued breaking of the weekly support. As time goes by, the weekly support is at the 3285 watershed. At the daily level, after the price broke the daily support last week, the price continued to rely on the daily resistance to bear pressure. At present, the daily resistance is at the 3355 area resistance. Below this position, gold can continue to be shorted. At the four-hour level, the four-hour key position is the key to our emphasis on short-term trends. At present, the four-hour watershed is in the 3300 area, so the focus is on the gains and losses of this position. Before it breaks up, the short-term focus will be on the pressure first, but once it breaks up, it will need to focus on the rebound to the daily resistance. From the one-hour perspective, the bottom rebounded during the early morning session and broke through the high point of the previous trading day’s early morning retracement, so the short-term is still in adjustment. Temporarily pay attention to the gains and losses of the 3300 position, and treat it as the right-side trading method in terms of operation.

Next week's market trend analysisShort-term technical analysis of gold next week:
After gold was horizontally consolidated below 3400, it had two relatively large retracements. The short-term downward channel, the upper edge of the channel is currently around 3340, which is also the turning point of the short-term long and short cycles that we need to pay attention to later.
Has the current big rhythm entered a weak position?
Daily level analysis: After reaching 3500, gold is still in a trend of high-level consolidation, and there is a periodic switch between long and short positions, and there is no extremely strong or weak rhythm. In this consolidation process, there are two relatively large retracements: the first from 3500 to 3200 space 300 points, the second from 3435 to 3120 space 315 points. In other words, in the current daily level cycle, the maximum decline is around 300 US dollars. Not exceeding this maximum retracement value, to a certain extent, it is still in the rhythm of high-level correction. According to the range of this space retracement, the limit of the daily retracement is around 3150, with an error of about 20 points. However, the daily range is large, so it is too early to talk about this threshold.
At present, the short-term pressure points of 0.618 and the top and bottom structures are all around 3300. Another point for everyone to pay attention to: in the market with a small cycle of negative decline, once there is a sideways trend. Don't take it as support! The price is consolidating horizontally, which only means that the current bulls are weak in pulling back and the change of weakness must be a strong pullback to break through the big negative. Similarly, the slow rise market is the same.
The first support below in the short term is around 3250. The strong support is at the integer level of 3200. Once this position is reached, it will become a repeated test position like 3400.
GOLD DAILY OUTLOOK | BEAR MARKET STRUCTURE CONFIRMED 📉 Trend Reversal Underway – Prepare for Lower Levels
The daily structure on Gold (XAUUSD) confirms a shift from accumulation to distribution.
Here's what stands out:
🔻 Key Breakdown Factors:
Failure at O_FIB Rejection Zone
The price failed to sustain above the upper Fib extension and supply zone (marked in red). Multiple attempts at reclaiming this level have resulted in sharp rejections, signaling exhaustion of buyers.
Break of Mid-Range Structure
We've decisively closed below the range midpoint, with strong bearish daily candles. This confirms loss of control by bulls and opens the door for a move toward deeper retracement zones.
Support Zones Exposed
The 0.618 FIB & 100 MA area around ~3160 is now a primary target. This zone held previously, but repeated touches weaken structure.
The 1.0 FIB & 200 MA zone around ~2960 is the macro support target. If sentiment continues to deteriorate, this will be the magnet.
EMA Crosses Rolling Over
Price has decisively lost the 9/21 EMA zone. Until a daily close reclaims this zone (~3335+), bearish momentum remains valid.
📉 Bearish RSI Momentum
While not a primary signal, RSI confirms momentum divergence and bear control below the midline. No sign of reversal.
🎯 Bearish Bias Until Reclaim of 3335 Zone
📌 Next Target = 3160, then 2960
🛑 Invalidation = Daily close above 3340 with strong volume and reclaim structure
This is not a short-term pullback — it's the beginning of a deeper correction. Gold is no longer in the “safe-haven” trade. Be patient, position with structure, and let the trend do the work.
Focus will be on fading the traps on pullbacks into structure.
Will the FALL continues?Last trade idea was fulfilled and went into the downside. Targeted 3250. If this 3250 major support area breaks down, we can expect a bigger downside move.
However, there’s a huge buying that happened at that level. It may first have a pullback upwards before it continues its decline. RSI is also at oversold level.
Bullish reversal can be confirmed if 3350 gets broken.
Gold fluctuated and fell, and the rebound was directly short
📣Gold News
Due to the easing of the situation in the Middle East, gold has fallen in the past few days, and the market has been eagerly looking forward to the interest rate cut, because the tariffs in the Trump era may push up inflation, but it has not come yet. "
On Thursday, the U.S. Department of Labor and Commerce issued key economic data, including initial jobless claims and the final value of real GDP in the first quarter. The number of initial jobless claims was 236,000, a decrease of 9,000 from 245,000 in the previous week, better than the market expectation of 245,000. At the same time, as of June 14, the number of continued unemployment claims in the week increased by 37,000 to 1.974 million, a new high since November 2021. Gold stopped below the moving average today. Gold did not continue the small positive line rise, and the decline continued during the U.S. trading period.
Today, focus on the continuation of short positions, comprehensive Labaron believes that gold is bearish today. For today's operation, consider rebound shorting as the main, and low long as the auxiliary.
📣 Pay attention to the resistance of 3330-3345 US dollars above
📣 Pay attention to the support of 3300-3280 US dollars below
💰 Go long near 3295-3285, target 3310-3320
💰 Go short near 3330-3340, target 3000-3290
If you have just entered the market, you are confused about the market of gold, oil and silver, and you always do the opposite operation direction and the entry price is unstable. I hope Labaron's article will help you.
GOLD Can Turn Bearish Now, After Completing a 50% Retracement!GOLD futures analysis for Wed Jun 26th.

This, after pulling back tothe 50% fib.
Should the FVG fail, Gold is bullish. This is not
supported by fundamentals, though.
As the market environment is more risk on than
off, I expect the -FVG to hold, and the retracement
of the last impulsive move down to end, and a new
bearish leg to begin.

Gold prices rose as dollar data was not good
📌 Gold information:
Gold prices plunged on Tuesday as a ceasefire was declared in the 12-day war between Iran and Israel, market risk appetite rebounded, and demand for safe-haven assets declined. The ceasefire news pushed global stocks higher, while oil prices fell to a two-week low as concerns about supply disruptions eased. The plunge in crude oil prices also further suppressed gold's inflation hedging appeal. As an interest-free asset, gold prices are under pressure against the backdrop of waning risk aversion, but there is still buying support at low levels.
Investors are currently focusing on Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell's appearance at a House Financial Services Committee hearing. Powell has been cautious on whether to cut interest rates in the near future.
📊Comment Analysis
The current market selling sentiment has increased significantly, and for gold, falling seems to be the only way to go. Today, whether you look at rebound short or low long, basically you will not have a chance, that is, falling, it seems that the market has lost hope in gold, and the current gold has fallen to 3295, and the break of 3300 declares that gold has further room to fall. From the trend point of view, it is likely to fall now!
The further strong support on the current trend line is around 3274, and it is not ruled out that it will fall directly to the current position. At present, the Federal Reserve is still speaking, and whether it will cause drastic fluctuations in gold in the future is still unpredictable, but from today's trend, shorting is already the best solution at present, and the upper resistance can first look at 3330!

Gold-----sell near 3393, target 3380-3366Gold market analysis:
Yesterday, gold was basically a repeated shock, the K line was repaired at one position, and buying and selling were back and forth around the M side of the suppression platform 3405. Yesterday, our analysis was completely in line with our expectations. Yesterday, we also repeatedly arranged 5 sell orders, arranging 3382 break sell, 3387 sell, 3393 sell, 3382 sell, 3377 sell. Today's idea is to continue selling. The daily line cannot determine the bottom of this wave of decline. There are data in European and American time today. I think we can rely on the 3405 platform to be bearish before the data. If 3405 breaks, we adjust our thinking to be bullish. Otherwise, we can sell repeatedly. Gold is oscillating in the short term. Try not to chase it and wait for it to rebound and suppress the position to sell. In addition, the daily moving average suppression position of the moving average is 3396-3363, which is also the main reason for its repeated game at this position. The weekly buying momentum is not dead yet. Be cautious of its rocket in the second half of the week.
In today's Asian session, we will first focus on the suppression of 3395. The risk of taking more is relatively large. The low point below is not stable. The Asian session fell to 3370 and rebounded quickly. From the perspective of the pattern, 3372-3366 is the support. The suppression position of the 1H hourly moving average is near 3395. Yesterday's US session rebounded at around 3396, and the hourly K suppression position was 3400. All the above are suppressed. In addition, the opening position today is also near 3393.
Pressure 3393, 3400, 3405, support 3382, 3370, and the watershed of strength and weakness in the market is 3382.
Fundamental analysis:
In the previous fundamentals, we have been paying attention to geopolitical factors. The situation in the Middle East has indeed changed the way gold and crude oil are traded. Today we focus on the monetary policy of the Federal Reserve, and there is also a speech by Chairman Powell during the US session.
Operation suggestions:
Gold-----sell near 3393, target 3380-3366
Gold may usher in new opportunities
Key fundamental drivers
- Middle East tensions and nuclear negotiations Despite the ongoing tensions, Iran's signal of restarting nuclear talks has reduced risk aversion, triggering an intraday sell-off in gold, and the market has digested the reduced possibility of escalation of the conflict. The turbulent situation in the Middle East remains a trigger for market volatility, and any downgrade/escalation signals may trigger sharp fluctuations in gold prices.
- Fed policy and rate cut bets The Fed kept interest rates unchanged this week, but Powell's "data-dependent" stance has raised market expectations for a September rate cut to 60%. A dovish meeting statement could push gold prices above $3,400, while a delayed rate cut signal could drag gold prices to $3,350.
Short-term outlook
In the short term, gold prices may fluctuate between $3,350 and $3,450, and a breakthrough depends on:
- Upside catalyst: Escalating tensions in the Middle East + weak retail sales data may push gold prices to $3,450.
- Downside risks: Fed hawkish signals + fading geopolitical risks could push prices to $3,300.
Key event risks
- June 19: Fed policy meeting (expected to be dovish)
- June 21: US CPI data (inflation indicator to measure the timing of rate cuts)
- Middle East situation: progress in nuclear negotiations and conflict dynamics

Gold is under pressure! What is the key to breaking the deadlock
📌 Core driving events
The conflict between Iran and Israel has entered the fifth day. Air raid alerts in Tel Aviv are frequent. The fire on a cruise ship in the Strait of Hormuz has exacerbated the panic of energy transportation. Safe-haven buying supports gold prices;
Trump's contradictory statement of "peace talks + tough" (may send executives to meet but demand "unconditional surrender") has exacerbated the market's disagreement on the direction of the conflict, and risk aversion has fluctuated repeatedly.
The Federal Reserve will announce its interest rate decision today. The market expects it to remain unchanged at 4.25%-4.50%, but Powell's statement on rate cuts will affect the trend of the US dollar (Trump continues to pressure for a 1 percentage point rate cut).
📊Comment Analysis
1-hour chart: 3396 becomes the intraday strength and weakness watershed
The Asian morning session hit a high of 3396 US dollars and fell back. This point is the previous high pressure point. If the intraday rebound does not break through this position, the bearish thinking will be maintained;

Gold-----Sell near 3405, target 3390-3360Gold market analysis:
Yesterday's daily line closed with a big negative line, which was basically a day to kill the buying. Today's idea is to sell in the short term. The daily and weekly trends have not yet turned to selling. Although the daily line closed with a big negative line yesterday, its shape and indicators have not completely turned to selling. There is still motivation to buy in the later stage. In addition, Iran and Israel are still fighting. It is still difficult to see a deep decline in the short term. We estimate that today's Asian session will rebound slightly and then fall. If today's daily line continues to fall again, it may enter a new short-term selling mode. We are just a follower. We follow the short-term. If the short-term trend is bearish, we will rebound and sell. The daily line closes the negative Asian session and waits for the opportunity to sell.
In the Asian session, we pay attention to the suppression of the 3410 position. It is the suppression position of the shape, the suppression position of the 1-hour moving average, the central axis position of yesterday's big drop, and the suppression position of the daily line. If the Asian session stands on 3410, it may bring a new technical rise in buying. After all, the shape of the daily line is still buying. Secondly, if it breaks 3382, it can continue to sell it with a small rebound. 3405 is also a suppression, and it is also considered to sell when it is close.
Pressure 3405 and 3410, support 3282, the strength and weakness dividing line 3400.
Fundamental analysis:
Yesterday, Iran and Israel started bombing each other again, and the situation began to escalate.
Operation suggestion
Gold-----Sell near 3405, target 3390-3360
Geopolitics and Fed policies dominate the trend of gold prices
📌 Gold news
On Monday, boosted by the risk aversion of the Iran-Israel war, the gold price hit a high of 3452, but the continuity was not strong, and a series of other adjustments appeared; let's briefly sort it out:
1: Adjustment: Adjustment is normal. If the market rises, if the risk aversion does not continue to exert force, then the gold price can only return to technical adjustments. Therefore, Monday's adjustment trend and the decline trend are normal!
2: Risk aversion trend: The risk aversion trend will not be reversed for the time being! Once the war starts, it will not end easily; unless the interests of both sides are not damaged, the two sides agree to a ceasefire, but at present, the hope and probability are relatively small, so the risk aversion trend is the mainstream of the current global market;
3: The direction of the Iran-Israel war is nothing more than a few possibilities:
A: The war expands, the surrounding countries stand in line, and the US and Western imperialism join the battlefield; the war expands rapidly! At the same time, Iran is forced to block the Strait of Hormuz! This is a manifestation of escalating war;
B: Both sides, as well as the forces behind them, have calculated their interests, reached an agreement, and agreed to end the war conflict; this mainly depends on Iran's attitude; is it "powerful and unyielding", continuing to oppose the United States and imperialism; or is it pro-American, completely changing its identity, or changing its identity to submit to Israel and the United States;
To sum up: risk aversion eased slightly on Monday, but the overall global market is still risk-averse; technical adjustments are normal trends; but don't completely ignore the importance of risk aversion and risk aversion control because of technical adjustments; in addition, the subsequent results of the Middle East war are nothing more than the above two; what determines all this is the attitude of both sides;

Iran releases easing signals, gold is still bullish
📣Golden News
1. Iran sends a signal of easing. U.S. media reported that under the pressure of Israeli air strikes, Iran has used Arab intermediaries to send a peace signal to the United States and Israel - asking the United States not to carry out air strikes as a prerequisite for restarting nuclear negotiations, and emphasizing to Israel that controlling violence is in the common interest.
2. Israel's firm stance. Israeli warplanes fly freely over the Iranian capital, and Iran's counterattack is ineffective. Israel is still focused on dismantling Iran's nuclear facilities and weakening its theocratic regime, and there is no motivation to cease fire in the short term.
3. Gold's reaction and strategy. Iran's peace proposal caused the price of gold to plummet to as low as $3,382. However, since the situation in the Middle East has not eased significantly, it is recommended to buy on dips and pay attention to the support level of $3,400. ⭐️Set gold price:

🔥Buy gold area: 3390-3388 USD SL 3383 USD

Is this week a chance for gold to break through 3,500?
⭐️Gold Information:
Gold prices surged for the third consecutive trading day on Friday as geopolitical tensions intensified after Israel launched a military strike on Iranian targets, including nuclear facilities and key leaders. The escalation of the situation triggered widespread risk aversion in global markets, stimulating demand for safe-haven assets. As of the time of writing, XAU/USD was trading at $3,431.
Gold surged to a five-week high of $3,446 before giving up gains as traders took profits before the weekend. Geopolitical turmoil, coupled with dovish signals released by recent US inflation data, reinforced expectations that the Federal Reserve may begin to cut interest rates later this year - despite improved consumer confidence. These factors together support the bullish momentum of gold.
⭐️Personal Comment:
Continued military tensions next week are a big driving force for gold prices to continue to break through 3,500
. 🔥 Technical aspects:
Based on the resistance and support levels of gold prices in the H4 framework, the following important key areas can be identified:
Resistance: $3488, $3502, $3562
Support: $3382, $3342
Israel attacks Iran, gold price correction can be long gold
📣Gold news
Today, Israel launched an attack on Iran, and the gold price reached a high of $3,433/ounce, the highest level since May 6, and the weekly increase exceeded 3.6%, the highest level since the week of May 19.
Spot gold continued to rise during the US trading session on Thursday, reaching a weekly high of $3,398.55/ounce. However, in the afternoon of the same day, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce stated that China and the United States reached a principled agreement on implementing the consensus of the heads of state call and consolidating the results of the Geneva talks, and made new progress in resolving each other's economic and trade concerns. Affected by the easing of the Sino-US trade situation, the safe-haven demand for gold dropped sharply, and the price fell rapidly by $30 from the high, reaching a low of $3,338/ounce. The market risk appetite has rebounded significantly, and the risk aversion sentiment has cooled significantly. Combined with the fact that the monthly and annual rates of the US CPI released in the evening were both lower than expected, indicating that inflationary pressure has not intensified. After the data was released, the market's expectations for the Fed to cut interest rates by 50 basis points before the end of the year have further increased.
📊Technical analysis:
Technically, the upper track of the daily line is still in a flat state. The current market has reached a high of around 3444. After the rise on Thursday, it is expected that there will be little room above. Since the market is in a volatile rise, it is not suitable to directly chase the rise. The 4-hour Bollinger band continues to diverge upward, and the moving average is arranged in a bullish pattern, indicating that the current market is in a strong position. If it breaks high on Thursday, there will be a chance of rising on Friday. In terms of operation, keep the idea of calling back and going long. If it falls below 3367 again, there will be repeated fluctuations.
Today's operation strategy💰
If the gold price falls back to around 3375, go long. If it is around 3370 and 3365, add more. Stop loss at 3360. Target 3420-3430
Sell short near 3430. Add shorts in batches near 3430 and 3435. Stop loss at 3440. Target 3380-3374
