On September 5, the spot gold market once again showed strong gains. The price of gold exceeded US$2,515 per ounce in early European trading, with an intraday increase of more than US$20. Recently, the main driver of the gold market has been the direction of U.S. economic data. As the market pays close attention to the U.S. ADP employment change data and ISM service industry PMI to be released in the evening, the fluctuations in the gold market are particularly significant. With the release of these important economic data, market sentiment is expected to change drastically. Especially in the context of the direct impact of the performance of the US dollar on the price of gold, the trend of gold's market outlook has attracted much attention. On this trading day, investors will usher in heavyweight economic indicators such as "small non-agricultural" ADP employment data, which is expected to trigger market trends.
Technical analysis of gold: Today, Thursday, the US market will usher in the small non-farm data, and tomorrow, Friday, the monthly non-farm data will be released, so the trend in the second half of the week should be treated separately from the trend in the first half of the week. Gold fell twice this week and quickly recovered its decline. Today, the Asian market has been trading above 2490, and now it stands above the 2500 mark. Shengfu's idea for the European market is to observe the retracement first, and then choose the opportunity to arrange long orders for bullishness. The primary support point below is 2505, and the upper pressure can be appropriately moved up to 2518 or 2526.
The 4-hour chart indicator MACD fast and slow line has a golden cross rising, the red volume energy column is in the heavy volume stage, the KDJ stochastic indicator simultaneously diverges upward with a golden cross, and the RSI relative strength indicator tends to rise. These are all positive signals for gold prices. The Asian market rose today, and if the European market retreats as expected, then the US market breaking a new high in the evening is basically a given. The price of gold in the European market breaks through and rises, and the pressure of 2507 is vulnerable. The gold price is currently trading at 2516. The current resistance above can be referred to 2518, followed by the historical high of 2530. As for the support below, this week's suppression will convert to the support level of 2505. Secondly, focus on the 2500 mark. On the whole, today's short-term gold operation ideas suggest that the main focus is longs at lows, supplemented by shorts on rebounds. The top short-term focus is on the 2518-2526 first-line resistance, and the bottom short-term focus is on the 2503-2505 first-line support
