XAUUSD | GOLDSPOT | New perspective | follow-up details

Updated
With increasing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, having Gold in your portfolio can serve as a perfect hedge against international turmoil. As investors closely monitor events in Israel, any increase in geopolitical risk is certain to trigger panic demand for safe-haven buying in gold. Our analysis indicates that the rally is likely to reach $1930 in a quick chase.

Last Friday, buying pressure built up within the $1,810 zone after markets reacted positively to the US Non-Farm Payrolls report. The report handily beat the street, printing at a forecast-clobbering 336K against the anticipated 170K, and the previous figure was also revised higher to 227K from 187K. As a result, market sentiment has turned firmly bullish, taking XAUUSD back up the charts after most of the week saw spot Gold prices firmly on the low end.

XAUUSD Technical Analysis:
In this video, we dissected the XAUUSD chart from a technical standpoint, analyzed the key levels, analyzed historical price moves, market behaviors, and buyer-seller dynamics, and uncovered potential trading opportunities.

The $1,810 and $1,830 zones will remain our center stage for this week. Its historical significance makes it a crucial point. If the bearish momentum is sustained then the breakdown of the $1,810 and the support line on the 4H timeframe could incite a strong downtrend continuation. However, for a sustained recovery the asset has to recapture the crucial $1,830.00.

Note
Market key players seek refuge at the beginning of the week due to escalating geopolitical tensions caused by Israel's formal declaration of war against the Palestinian Hamas group. This has led to the XAUUSD opening with a bullish gap and subsequently trading within the tight range of $1,855 and $1,846. Interestingly, the current price is significantly above the neckline of the reversal pattern identified in the video. Given these market conditions, it is worth considering whether the price will drop to retest the neckline at the $1,830, in anticipation of a potential uptrend continuation, or if there will be a breakout/retest of the resistance line at the $1,855 zone. It is important to exercise patience and wait for a break of the range for potential trading opportunities.

Cautious selling resumes following the breakout of the $1,855 zone, with Gold price fluctuating within a narrow $10 range [$1,855/$1,865] near a one-week peak. It is widely acknowledged that gold, being a safe-haven asset, tends to benefit during times of political and economic turmoil.
The pivotal question arises: will this lead to a retest of the $1,885 level in anticipation of an uptrend, or will the price breach the ascending trendline and $1,855 level, triggering a potential retracement or sell-off? Today, the ascending trendline stands as a crucial reference point for our trading decisions.

The varied comments from Federal Reserve (Fed) officials regarding inflation risks and policy measures have compelled market participants to allocate capital towards gold. Amidst the escalation in the Middle East and since the start of the week, gold has displayed its resilience, reaching a week-high above the $1,875 level. This has instilled confidence in market participants, leading them to favor gold as an asset. Currently, we have gained a total profit of 500 pips from three buy positions. It is advisable to secure all positions at this point, while also keeping an eye out for potential trading opportunities in the future.

All buy positions were closed with a significant profit as the USD strengthened following the release of the United States inflation report for September. The report revealed that the headline Consumer Price Index (CPI) exceeded expectations, primarily due to the surge in gasoline prices. Given the current situation, it is crucial to exercise patience. Currently, the price is trading around the ascending trendline and has breached the $1,874.70 level. If we observe a retest of this structure, we will consider selling. However, if the price bounces back above the trendline with clear buying pressure, it will present buying opportunities.

Note
In a surprising turn of events, the market has shown resilience after what initially seemed like a breakdown of the ascending trendline, spurred by yesterday's US Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation reading, which indicated higher inflation than investors had anticipated. This unexpected turn prompted a swift rebound in the US Dollar, as investors speculated that the Federal Reserve (Fed) might consider further interest rate hikes in November due to the ongoing challenges in easing inflationary pressures.

However, in the past 11 hours, there has been a noteworthy development – a resurgence of bullish momentum. As we closely monitor the charts, we are now poised to identify potential buying opportunities above the $1,874.70 zone. A retest of this level could signal a strong entry point for new buy positions. Conversely, if there's a breakdown or a retest of the $1,874.70 level, it may open the door for potential selling opportunities. Stay alert and ready to capitalize on these market movements.
