Gold Attack and Defense Guide

399
After the opening of the market on Monday, the three major U.S. stock index futures all fell sharply, with the Nasdaq futures falling by more than 5.5%, the S&P 500 index and the Dow Jones Industrial Average falling by more than 4.7% and 4% respectively, and crude oil prices also falling below $60 per barrel. Although gold and silver have rebounded after a sharp drop, they still cannot escape the selling pressure as a whole. The market panic is quite similar to the outbreak of the new crown epidemic in March 2020. The U.S. tariff policy and the trade war it has triggered have caused the biggest disruption crisis in the global supply chain since the epidemic.

As the new trading week begins, global risk aversion shows a significant sign of rising, and precious metal assets have ushered in a strong performance. U.S. officials announced on Monday that they would launch reciprocal tariff measures against global trading partners the next day, completely shattering the market's previous residual expectations that negotiations might ease at the last minute. As the deadline for policy implementation approaches, the tense atmosphere in the financial market has heated up sharply.

Against this background, mainstream banks continue to hold optimistic expectations for the medium- and long-term trend of precious metals. The current price is driven by two factors: one is the unexpected demand for reserve increases by central banks of various countries, and the other is the continued inflow of funds from gold-linked ETF funds. It is worth noting that the U.S. benchmark Treasury yield fell in a gap on Monday, and the yield curve is rapidly approaching the stage low of 4.172% set in March.
Technical patterns show that gold prices continue to rise strongly after breaking through the psychological barrier of $3,100, indicating that the current main trend is still expanding upward along the line of least resistance. If the price falls back and loses this integer, it may trigger a technical correction, and long position closing operations may push gold prices back to the key support of $3,000. Short-term trading needs to focus on the upward resistance band formed in the $3,148-50 range, which may become a new battlefield for long-short games. I suggest that gold should pay attention to the suppression of the 3080 line above and the 3000 integer mark below. The news has stimulated the recent volatility, and the recent high-altitude is the main focus. Long orders must be cautious.

Operation strategy:

1. Try the 3055-3060 line above the gold short order, and make a stop loss. The target is 15 US dollars.

2. The long order below the gold can be tried at the 3000 line, looking at 10-15 US dollars, and make a stop loss. No long orders can be participated without loss. The 2980 line below can be regarded as a position for replenishment.
