XAUUSD ahead of the FOMC meeting.
Updated
⚡️ U.S. consumer prices rose a second month in a row in August, reaching a year-on-year growth of 3.7% from 3.2% in July, due to high pump prices of gasoline which accounted for more than half of the increase — a phenomenon that could put renewed pressure on inflation fighters at the Fed.
⚡️ The central bank’s desired inflation remains at a max 2% per year and it has vowed to get there with more rate hikes if necessary.
⚡️ Still, with a Fed hike seemingly out of the way for now, dollar investors sat on the sidelines while others took some more profit on the greenback’s rally of the past eight weeks.
⚡️ H4 chart shows that right now gold is no longer attractive to traders ahead of the FOMC meeting, everyone is looking towards this meeting, price is active on EAM, RSI above 50, the price has touched the trendline and is retesting the support level at 1930. The selling force is no longer strong enough to break this zone, gold will stay sideways until the end of the 2 morning trading sessions.
⚡️Let me know your opinion. I'm looking forward to it
