Gold Breaks Above $1,840; Quick Update on Buy Signal

Posted Wednesday, January 4, 2023 by

After recovering from the critical support level of $1,828 in the late New York session, the GOLD price has entered a sideways auction profile. Previously, the precious metal fell dramatically after failing to breach the important resistance level of $1,850. The yellow metal is experiencing a decrease in volatility ahead of the release of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) minutes.

Risky assets, such as the S&P 500, were under pressure on Tuesday as investors anticipated a hawkish policy stance from the FOMC minutes, which will be released on Thursday. Because inflation remains resistant and the labor market remains extraordinarily tight, the Federal Reserve may consider more interest rate increases to compensate for a robust Consumer Price Index (CPI). Despite a risk-aversion theme in the global market, 10-year US Treasury yields fell to 3.75%.
After fighting the negative bias below the significant level of 103.00, the US Dollar Index (DXY) climbed above 104.30. The USD Index is strengthening in anticipation of more employment generation by the US economy in December. Analysts at TD Securities predict a strong net gain of $350,000 in December.

GOLD Technical Outlook

 GOLD price is under pressure now, with stochastic negativity pointing to a potential test of key support at $1,824.50. At the same time, the EMA50 continues to provide positive support, keeping the bullish trend scenario valid and conditioned by the price stability above the mentioned support and, most importantly, above $1,812.25; trying to remind you that our waited targets proceed at $1,850 and extend to $1,900. Today’s trading range is likely between $1,830 support and $1,865 resistance.

Today’s projected trend: bullish
