GOLD → Price dump before NFP. Will we go to 2400?FX:XAUUSD is manipulatively declining and catching buyers by surprise (liquidation) before the news. Price may start a strengthening phase from strong support (2330-2325) on the back of weak dollar Traders are waiting for NFP to be released at 12:30 GMT. Yesterday, the market received 229K on Initial Jobless Claims, which generally gives hints of a possible scenario. The dollar index may continue to lose ground amid the general environment, markets are slowly but already starting to prepare for Fed policy easing. NFP is expected to be 183K vs. previous 175K, but the focus is on the actual data. If those are below the expected 183K, the dollar will break key support and fall under a wave of sell-offs, which would be a favorable scenario for gold. But, the problem with news is its unpredictability. Data above 185K may strengthen the dollar (But not for long). Resistance levels: 2354, 2374 Support levels: 2328 There is liquidation and strong selling by buyers, but it happens before the news ( there are interesting thoughts, but... ). Below 2328 the price may not be allowed (from a technical point of view) and it would be logical to expect a false breakdown or a rebound from the liquidity block to which the price has approached.

GOLD → ECB rate and NFP in the US. What to expect?FX:XAUUSD is supposedly ending the correction wave on the background of fundamentally weaker dollar. ECB rate and US news (Initial Jobless Claims & NonFarm Payrolls) ahead The European Central Bank is expected to cut interest rates for the first time since March 2016 at the end of its June policy meeting later today. Meanwhile, markets now have a better chance of an imminent Fed rate cut amid signs of a slowing US economy. Ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, continue to act as a safe-haven price for gold. Also, everyone is interested in the NFP (as one of the first signs of the Fed's readiness to loosen the policy), which will be published on Friday. Technically, gold is forming a false break of MA-50 on D1, and breaking trend resistance on H1. All eyes are on the near-term support at 2354-2350 Resistance levels: 2374, 2405 Support levels: 2354, 2350. 2328 Possible support retest (false breakdown or intermediate struggle), which may lead to strengthening of the price. On the background of news, volatility may increase. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → The market is waiting for the news. What could happen?FX:XAUUSD in consolidation ahead of the news. The price after strong sell-offs is accumulating potential, traders are not doing anything yet, at the same time the dollar is breaking trend support. Stalemate situation. A consolidation range is marked on the main chart. It is acceptable to trade from the boundaries of the range either breakout or false breakdown. The complexity of the overall situation is that the news is an unpredictable part of trading. On the technical side: Gold is weak, there is no strong buyer in the market yet (Maybe they are waiting for news). But based on TA, I would see the market as preparing for a break of 2325 followed by a fall to 2300-2275. Fundamentally, the US still has high inflation and the regulators will not let the dollar fall much. DXY is breaking the upside support (which is supposedly a downside signal) but it still has not reached the support and liquidity zone, which is also a sign of a strong index. Resistance levels: 2341, 2351 Support levels: 2325, 2315 Based on the technical behavior of the gold price, a break of 2325 and consolidation of the price below this area will provoke sales. Breakout of 2345-2350 will provoke buying. The situation is complicated by the upcoming news. Regards R. Linda!

Get support from Middle East, GOLD recovers, bound by EMA21Complicated geopolitical developments are counterbalancing the Fed's recent stance to support gold prices. On the one hand, the Fed strengthens the Dollar compared to other major currencies. On the other hand, gold is also supported. Support when potential market risks are likely to flare up and increase the attractiveness of Precious Metals that do not generate yields. Notable news in the Middle East According to the British news network "Middle East Eye", citing Israeli media on May 27, Egyptian and Israeli soldiers exchanged fire at the Rafah border gate on the border between Egypt and the Gaza Strip that day. An Egyptian soldier died in the fire. The incident was first reported by Israel's Channel 13 and Channel 14, which they called "unusual". Regarding details of the incident, it was reported that Egyptian soldiers opened fire on an Israeli truck at the Rafah intersection and Israeli soldiers returned fire. But this statement has not been officially confirmed. Amid the deteriorating situation in Rafah, this news sent safe-haven gold rapidly higher. However, gold also needs more of these types of impacts to reach its original price of $2,400. Egypt's independent English-language newspaper Daily News cited sources as saying Egyptian soldiers were affected by last Sunday's "Rafa massacre", in which Israeli bombings destroyed a refugee camp in Rafah, killing 45 Palestinians. The Israel Defense Forces said a "shooting incident occurred" on the Egyptian border early Monday morning and that it was investigating the incident and that "dialogue with Egypt is ongoing." A spokesman for the Egyptian Armed Forces also confirmed the exchange of fire late Monday, saying that an Egyptian soldier was killed in the incident. In addition to closely monitoring the situation taking place in the Middle East, traders also need to pay attention to developments from the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, etc. Basically, traders need to pay attention to everything. Regardless of any major geopolitical developments happening globally, gold is an asset that easily reacts to sudden news on the market. In recent history, the US-China Trade War, developments in the Middle East at the end of 2019, the Ukraine conflict, and now continuing the war in the Middle East... have all created huge mutations in the world. gold market. During this trading year, we “traders” need to get used to gold moving 2-3% or more in a day, which will happen even more frequently in the near future. Every time a conflict shows signs of escalation, the price of gold creates a new era peak! Analysis of technical prospects for OANDA:XAUUSD Gold is trying to operate around the EMA21 level as it recovers from the technical level of $2,324, which readers noticed in last Friday's edition. However, the recovery momentum is limited with EMA21. For the gold price to technically qualify for upside, it would at least need to break out and return to operating above the trend and near-term target level followed by the 0.236 trend-following Fibonacci extension %, more than the original price of 2,400USD. Meanwhile, gold is at risk of a further decline if it sells off below the $2,324 support level with a target then around $2,305 – $2,300. Therefore, open long positions should be considered protecting behind the $2,324 level as a reasonable position. During the day, the trend of gold price is neutral with price activity intentionally sticking around the EMA21, and the technical levels of interest will be listed as follows. Support: 2,345 – 2,324USD Resistance: 2,384 – 2,400USD 🪙SELL XAUUSD | 2389 - 2387 ⚰️SL: 2393 ⬆️TP1: 2382 ⬆️TP2: 2377 🪙BUY XAUUSD | 2345 - 2347 ⚰️SL: 2341 ⬆️TP1: 2352 ⬆️TP2: 2357

GOLD → Consolidation before NFP. What to prepare for?FX:XAUUSD is strengthening after a false breakdown of range support and is testing resistance with a subsequent bounce. Price is forming a flat and is not ready to go up or down yet. There are reasons for this: Traders are waiting for news that will start to be released in the second half of this week starting Wednesday. The focus is on ISM PMI, Initial Jobless Claims, NFP. Accordingly, I would recommend watching the flat for now: 2354 - 2328 (2320). Most likely the price will be inside this consolidation for some time, the dollar is also standing still. Perhaps there will be an attempt to breakout (false breakout) or even a retest of more distant levels, but in general, due to the fact that there are no major players in the game yet, who are not eager for pre-temporal action, the price will consolidate within the specified range. Resistance levels: 2354, 2374 Support levels: 2328, 2322, 2315 A quick approach to the liquidity zone may lead to a rebound or a false breakdown, accordingly, there is a chance to see local strengthening. We are looking at an intra-range trading strategy. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD recovered to EMA21, Middle East situation tense On the Asian market on Monday (May 27), gold was delivered immediately OANDA:XAUUSD increase rapidly in the short term. Gold price touched 2,347 USD/ounce, setting a session high and increasing strongly by more than 13 USD during the day. OANDA:XAUUSD The gains were supported by a weaker US Dollar and rising geopolitical risks in the Middle East. Tuesday's speeches by Fed officials Bowman, Mester and Kashkari will be closely watched. Affected by the Memorial Day/Spring Bank Holiday, US and UK stock markets will be closed for one day on May 27; CME Group's U.S. crude oil futures and precious metals trading will be suspended at 01:30 Hanoi time on May 28. Gold will get more data from speeches by Fed officials on Tuesday, including those from Bowman, Mester and Kashkari. The US's first quarter gross domestic product (GDP) released on Thursday will be the focus, with GDP expected to grow 1.5% in the first quarter. Stronger-than-expected data could boost the Dollar and continue to pressure gold, whereas weaker-than-expected data would see gold supported and the Dollar weaker. In terms of the fundamental picture, gold is receiving some support that could be transformative as the geopolitical situation becomes complicated again. Previous lessons show that every time the geopolitical situation becomes complicated and escalates, gold sets a new all-time peak. The Israeli army has conducted many air strikes! Killed about 200 people Early on the morning of May 27 local time, the Gaza Strip Media Office issued a statement saying that in the past 24 hours, the Israeli army conducted 10 attacks on 10 areas in the Gaza Strip such as Jebaliya, Nusayrat, and City. Gaza, and northwestern Rafah. Air strikes targeted evacuation centers run by multiple United Nations agencies, killing a total of about 200 people. A day earlier, the Qassan Brigades, an armed faction affiliated with Hamas, said it had launched a "massive rocket" attack on Tel Aviv, Israel, in response to the "massacre of civilians by the regime". Zionism". Analysis of technical prospects for OANDA:XAUUSD On the daily chart, receiving support from the $2,324 gold level rose quickly to test the $2,345 EMA21 price point which is also the short-term target recovery level sent to you in the weekly publication. Now, with the geopolitical situation becoming more complicated, once gold breaks out of the 21-day EMA and moves above the 21-day moving average and returns to the trend, it is well placed to continue. Technically bullish with a short-term target then aiming for the 0.236% Fibonacci extension and more to the original price of 2,400USD. On the other hand, EMA21 is also the nearest resistance, which provides expectations for the possibility of a price decrease with a target level at 2,324USD, more at 2,305USD. During the day, the technical outlook is still leaning towards the possibility of a price decrease in the case of qualifying for the above increase. Notable prices are listed below.

GOLD down 0.17%, focus on GDP and Williams' speechThe benchmark 10-year US Treasury bond yield increased more than 1% yesterday and is currently in the Asian trading session today May 30, also increasing 0.09% and surpassing 4.6%. , causing gold prices to lose support and continue to decline. Gold spot price OANDA:XAUUSD currently reported at around 2,334USD/oz, a decrease equivalent to 0.17% on the day. After the price of OANDA:XAUUSD reaching a new all-time high, it encountered a sell-off and fell back to more than 120 US Dollars an ounce from a high of 2,450 USD/ounce. The recent trend of the United States maintaining high interest rates for a longer period of time will support the US Dollar and high US bond yields, putting some pressure on the precious metals market. However, from a more general perspective if the Federal Reserve begins to cut interest rates in the future, it will significantly support gold prices. In addition, with the support of factors such as central banks continuously increasing gold purchases and the increasing instability of the global geopolitical situation, the potential for gold prices to increase in the near future still remains. Federal Reserve (Fed) officials have made hawkish comments, stimulating demand for the dollar recently. As a result, market sentiment worsened and the US Dollar increased in value. Traders were still absorbing hawkish comments from Federal Reserve official Neel Kashkari on Tuesday. He said Fed officials are not ignoring interest rate hikes, adding that they could cut rates up to twice by the end of 2024 in case they do. This week, traders are preparing to release April's personal consumption expenditures (PCE) price index, the Federal Reserve's preferred measure of inflation. Core PCE is expected to increase 2.8% year-over-year, while overall PCE is expected to increase 0.3% month-over-month. If data shows a rise in inflation this will boost sentiment to keep interest rates high for longer. This situation is negative for gold prices because the opportunity cost of investing in non-yielding assets such as gold is increasing. This scenario will be beneficial for interest-earning assets and US Dollar yields. During this trading day, traders should also pay attention to the US GDP Index data, Initial Jobless Claims and Speech by FOMC member Williams. Analysis of technical prospects for OANDA:XAUUSD After the gold price failed to break above the trend (a) note to readers in previous issues it came under pressure and fell back to test the initial notable support level at 2,324 USD. It is worth mentioning that the gold price has fallen below the EMA21 level, providing favorable conditions for a bearish outlook in the near future. If gold falls below the initial support at $2,324 it could continue to decline towards $2,305 – $2,300 in the short term. The relative strength index (RSI) is still pointing down without reaching the oversold level, which shows that there is still technical room for downside. Only when gold moves above the trend will it have enough conditions to continue to recover and increase in price. For the rest of the day, the technical outlook for gold prices leans towards the possibility of a decrease in price with notable positions being identified. listed as follows. Support: 2,324 – 2,305 – 2,300USD Resistance: 2,340 – 2,345 – 2,353USD 🪙SELL XAUUSD | 2379 - 2377 ⚰️SL: 2383 ⬆️TP1: 2372 ⬆️TP2: 2367 🪙BUY XAUUSD | 2306 - 2308 ⚰️SL: 2301 ⬆️TP1: 2313 ⬆️TP2: 2318

XAUUSD: First 4H Death Cross in almost 5 months! Is it bearish?Gold is neutral on the 1D timeframe (RSI = 47.738) but turned bearish on its 4H technical outlook (RSI = 42.512, MACD = -2.860, ADX = 30.716) as it formed the first 4H Death Cross since January 15th. If Gold fails to reclaim the 1D MA50 and establish a week of trading over it, we project a slow decline same as January-February aiming at the S1 level (TP = 2,300). The long term trend will remain bullish though as long as the 1D MA100 supports.

GOLD → Correction for liquidity. Should we wait for the fall?FX:XAUUSD has been updating the low to 2314 since the opening of the session and is forming a correction within which it is testing the previously broken consolidation support. The fall may continue from the liquidity area. The fundamental and technical background for gold is negative at the moment. A possible area of interest for the market may be the area of 2305 - 2280. Accordingly, based on the general data, we can assume that a retest of the resistance area 2328-2336 may end in a false breakdown with a subsequent decline to the targets indicated on the chart. There is a possibility of price entry into the range and an attempt to rise to 2354, but in general, it will be regarded as an attempt to gather a more liquid position before reaching a global and promising target. Let me remind you that globally we have a bullish trend, within which a local bearish trend is forming. Resistance levels: 2328, 2336, 2354 Support levels: 2306, 2285 It is worth to keep an eye on the mentioned resistance areas. False breakdown followed by price consolidation below the mentioned zone will be a confirmation of bears' readiness to go down. Regards R. Linda!

XAUUSD forming the first 4H Death Cross in 5 months!Gold (XAUUSD) broke below the 1D MA50 (red trend-line) and is forming today the first 4H Death Cross since January 12. As we mentioned on our previous analysis, we expect the yellow metal to trade sideways on the medium-term and that involves the price testing the May 03 Low on a potential contact with the 1D MA100 (green trend-line). This will be a mirror trade of the previous Accumulation Phase (late 2023 - early 2024), when Gold made contact with the 1D MA100 on February 13 2024 and then immediately started the new Bullish Leg.

US GDP did not play any role and traders are waiting for the general fundamental background. Locally, the downtrend. The trend is downtrending, but on yesterday's news the price is trying to break the channel resistance, forming a consolidation of the price above the line. But if the price returns to the channel, due to the formed consolidation, the market may see a strong momentum towards 2280. Ahead of the news, traders are waiting for PCE. But, the market believes that the index will remain at the same level and this generally complicates the situation because if in fact the situation changes it may trigger a violent reaction Resistance levels: 2354, 2374 Support levels: 2328, 2306 Globally bullish trend, but there is no strong buyer yet.

Locally the trend is bearish, to confirm the change of the trend to a local bullish one, the price should overcome the area of 2354 - 2364 and consolidate above, in this case - the way to 2400. But, a break of 2328 will make the market panic Regards R. Linda!

GOLD fell last week, the market will pay attention to PCEAlthough central bank buying and strong Asian demand have created a long-term fundamental bullish trend for gold, OANDA:XAUUSD , but uncertainty surrounding the Federal Reserve's monetary policy continues to create large short-term fluctuations, mainly with mixed pressure to strengthen the US Dollar's position. Gold prices rose to a record high above $2,450 an ounce earlier this week as the market began to consolidate expectations that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates twice this year. However, the breakout to create a new all-time high was short-lived as gold prices fell more than $100 this week. Minutes of the Federal Open Market Committee meeting showed hawkish sentiment, with the central bank reluctant to cut interest rates as inflationary pressures remain high. The meeting minutes stated: "Participants noted that first-quarter inflation data were disappointing and that various indicators pointed to strong economic growth. They estimated that it would take a long time." than previously expected to get inflation closer to 2%.” The minutes also noted that some committee members were willing to raise interest rates if inflation continued to escalate. This news has delayed interest rate cut expectations and November could replace September as the date for the first rate cut. This change has pushed U.S. Treasury yields higher and the U.S. dollar stronger, thereby hitting non-yielding precious metal prices. Gold market OANDA:XAUUSD will be very sensitive to inflation data next week The Fed's preferred measure of inflation, the core personal consumption expenditures (PCE) index, will be released next Friday. Signs of easing price pressures could revive hopes of a Fed rate cut, pushing gold prices higher. If the PCE report is higher than market expectations, it will continue to provide another source of "energy" that has a negative impact on the Fed's interest rate cut expectations, causing gold prices to fall even more. While Friday's inflation data will be the main focus in the economic week ahead, broader financial markets will also be closely watching the latest US GDP and consumer confidence data. Notable economic data and events next week Tuesday: Conference Board consumer confidence index Thursday: Preliminary US Q1 GDP, weekly jobless claims, pending home sales Friday: Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) and US Personal Income and Expenditures Analysis of technical prospects for OANDA:XAUUSD Although the gold price has recovered from the technical level of 2,324 USD noted by readers in the last issue, the recovery momentum was soon defeated by the horizontal resistance level of 2,345 USD, the price point marked with moderate attention. horizontal resistance and also the price point of EMA21. As long as it cannot break and move above EMA21, it is still not technically eligible to increase in price. For gold price to be eligible to increase in price, it at least needs to operate above EMA21 and return. above the trend line again, this is also considered resistance, creating technical pressure on gold prices at the present time. In case the aforementioned resistance confluence area is broken above, gold has the opportunity to rally further and head towards the 0.236% Fibonacci levels and the $2,400 level in the short term. On the other hand, if the $2,324 horizontal support level is broken below gold could continue to decline more to the 2,304 level and more to the $2,300 raw price level in the short term. Technically, the gold price is in more favorable conditions for the possibility of a price decrease, while the Relative Strength Index is pointing down without reaching the oversold level, this shows that gold still has room to fall.

GOLD is breaking bullish structure, pay special attention to FedOANDA:XAUUSD fell to its lowest level in 2 weeks when demand for the US Dollar in the market recovered. A Federal Reserve rate cut in September is looking less and less likely, which is causing some selling pressure on gold. Investors will focus on today's (Friday) speech by Federal Reserve Governor Waller, US durable goods orders and the University of Michigan's consumer confidence index report. Strong U.S. economic data pushed U.S. Treasury yields and the dollar higher, which in turn weighed on gold prices. S&P Global said the US Composite Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI), which tracks manufacturing and services sector activity, rose to 54.4 in May, its highest level since April 2022. Other data released on Thursday showed the number of people filing for unemployment benefits in the US fell to 215,000 last week, the biggest two-week drop since last September. Minutes from a Federal Reserve meeting released Wednesday showed that officials still believe price pressures will gradually ease over at least the next few months, but some officials said they were ready to support spending increases. borrowing costs if inflation spikes. Notable data and events of the day Fed Governor Waller is scheduled to speak on Friday. Hawkish comments from Federal Reserve policymakers could put pressure on gold prices. It's worth noting that higher interest rates typically hurt gold prices because they increase the opportunity cost of investing in gold. In addition, US durable goods orders and the University of Michigan's consumer confidence index will also be published. The preliminary value of US durable goods orders for April will be published, with the monthly rate expected to decrease by 0.8 %, after increasing 2.6% in March. The final value of the University of Michigan's Consumer Confidence Index for May will be announced and is expected to be 67.5. Fed Governor John Waller, who has been hawkish on the Fed's rate-hike cycle, said Tuesday that he would need to see good inflation data for several more months before starting to cut rates. “In the absence of significant weakness in the labor market, I would need to see good inflation data for several more months before I feel comfortable making a move,” Waller said at the Peterson Institute for International Economics in Washington. support the loose monetary policy stance." Waller and other Fed officials have recently emphasized that the central bank may need to keep interest rates steady for longer than previously expected. Policymakers have not adjusted the benchmark interest rate, currently at a 23-year high, since last July. Fundamentally, traders need to pay special attention to the speech of Fed Governor Waller, who is a hawkish Fed official and Waller is very likely to follow up with further comments. causing pressure on gold prices. Analysis of technical prospects for OANDA:XAUUSD On the daily chart, gold broke most of the key technical levels and broke the technical structure that favors the upside. The drop below the trend and EMA21 is providing further downside risk to gold prices. In the immediate future, gold has a support at the technical level of 2,325 USD, and in case this technical level continues to be broken, gold will be eligible to move towards the level of 2,305 - 2,300 USD in the short term. The relative strength index (RSI) is pointing down but is still far from the oversold area, suggesting that gold prices still have room to decline further on the daily chart. From the technical level of 2,325 USD, the possibility of technical recovery is also limited by the EMA21 level which is currently the closest resistance, noticed by the technical point of 2,344 USD. During the day, gold's technical outlook leans more bearish with limited recovery and notable price levels are listed below.

GOLD Rebounds as US Growth Slows: Detailed AnalysisGold experienced a notable rebound on Thursday after the second estimate of US first-quarter GDP growth revealed a downward revision to an annualized 1.3% from the initial estimate of 1.6%. This revision reflects weaker consumer spending, which has important implications for inflation and monetary policy. The slower GDP growth is attributed to a decline in consumer spending, a critical component of economic activity. This deceleration is expected to help contain inflationary pressures, thereby influencing the Federal Reserve's (Fed) policy trajectory. As a result of these developments, market participants now anticipate a more dovish stance from the Fed, potentially leading to lower interest rates in the near future. The impact of the revised GDP figures was immediately felt in the bond markets. The yield on the US 10-year Treasury note, which had reached a four-week peak of 4.63%, retreated to 4.55%. This decline in yields made the US Dollar less attractive, providing support for gold prices. From a technical perspective, our analysis aligns with previous forecasts that anticipated a bullish impulse for gold. The price action is currently finding significant liquidity from key demand areas, suggesting that the market is preparing for a further upward movement. Our initial target remains at $2,400, based on the technical signals and market conditions. The footprint analysis reinforces this outlook. It shows that gold prices are drawing liquidity from the demand zones established in the previous trading sessions. This accumulation of liquidity is a positive sign, indicating that buyers are stepping in at these levels, thus supporting a higher price trajectory. In summary, the combination of weaker-than-expected US GDP growth, reduced consumer spending, and declining Treasury yields has created a favorable environment for gold. The technical indicators also support a bullish outlook, with the price action confirming our expectations of a continued upward trend. Investors should monitor upcoming economic data and Fed communications for further insights into the potential direction of gold prices. Gold Futures H4 Footprint Gold Futures Daily Footprint Chart

Gold Market Update: Geopolitical Tensions and Fed Rhetoric On Tuesday, the US Dollar gained renewed strength during the American trading session as risk sentiment deteriorated due to escalating geopolitical tensions between Israel and Gaza. Concurrently, hawkish comments from Minneapolis Federal Reserve (Fed) President Neel Kashkari drove US Treasury bond yields higher, which in turn boosted the Greenback from its weekly lows against major currencies. Geopolitical Developments Israeli forces shelled a tent camp in a designated “safe zone” west of Rafah, resulting in the deaths of at least 21 people, including 13 women and girls. This incident marks another mass killing of Palestinian civilians. In response, the UN Security Council convened an emergency meeting to address Israel’s ground invasion of Rafah. Additionally, Spain, Ireland, and Norway formally recognized the state of Palestine, further intensifying geopolitical tensions. Market Reaction These developments led investors to seek safety in the US Dollar, reducing the appeal of Gold as a traditional safe-haven asset. The flight to the Greenback underscores the market's preference for stability amid heightened uncertainty. Technical Analysis: Gold From a technical perspective, Gold is currently retesting areas with a high concentration of bullish orders on the Footprint Daily chart. Despite the recent pullback, the outlook remains positive, and we maintain a long position on Gold. The ongoing geopolitical tensions and fluctuating risk sentiment are expected to continue influencing Gold prices in the near term. Summary The combination of escalating geopolitical tensions and hawkish Fed rhetoric has reinforced the US Dollar's position, while the technical setup for Gold suggests potential for further gains following the recent correction. Investors should closely monitor developments in the Middle East and upcoming Fed statements for further market cues.

GOLD → The news will determine the medium-term outlookFX:XAUUSD is updating the low and forming a false break of support. Fundamental and technical background is negative. A quick retest of 2328 may lead to a fall, but there is NEWS ahead! Before the news, gold goes into a local flat 2360 - 2330. The market is gathering potential and liquidity before the news. GDP and Initial Jobless Claims are ahead. This time traders expect an extremely low GDP: 1.6% This is generally negative for the US market, in general this figure is logical based on general market indicators, but traders pay attention to the actual data. It is also worth paying attention to Initial Jobless Claims. Technically, under the current circumstances, a decline is possible after a retest of resistance. But, if the news is contradictory, the price may break the resistance, consolidate above 0.236 Fibo and head towards 0.618 (25-30% probability). Resistance levels: 2343, 2347, 2354 Support levels: 2335, 2328, 2306 The gold market is dominated by bears on the background of general economic conditions. Globally, the trend is still bearish and a correction is forming within it. Today is a purely fundamental day and you should not get into the market before the news. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → Break of the support of consolidation. Next is 2300?FX:XAUUSD is still bearish. The price is trying to leave the corrective range, which is formed after the false breakdown of support. The market is preparing to go lower. On the 1H timeframe it is becoming clear who is showing dominance in the market. There is no strong buy yet, apparently, before the GDP and PCE publication on Thursday and Friday, no one dares to enter the market early. (Presumably, the dollar may get another dose of support, which could weaken gold even more). I think that in the short term the price may retest 2335. Resistance levels: 2354, 2364 Support levels: 2335, 2328, 2306 Consolidation of the price below the previously broken local uptrend support (dotted line), will be a confirmation of the market's intention to go down. A quick retest of 2335 may lead to a break of support and further fall to 2300 Regards R. Linda!

GOLD → Consolidation before distribution. $2,400 or $2,300?FX:XAUUSD after a false breakdown of the support of the range is forming a correction, but within the upward consolidation channel. The fundamental background is still negative. There is no strong news in the next two days, so the fundamental background remains the same. There is no strong buyer on the market yet and thus, gold may continue its downward movement if it breaks through the support area: the rising line or the approximate area of 2340. A break of the local uptrending support line will move the market into the realization phase, which will be a continuation of the decline. The structure may be broken if the price rises and consolidates above 2354. In this case, the price may head towards 2374. Resistance levels: 2354, 2358, 2370 Support levels: 2340, 2335, 2325 I expect that with high probability the decline may continue. But in the phase of waiting for strong news (Thursday and Friday), the market may gather liquidity. Regards R. Linda!

Continue to adjust, pay attention to $2,400 level, FOMC minutesIn the Asian market on May 22, spot gold suddenly dropped in the short term but did not affect the main trend.

OANDA:XAUUSD fell from record highs earlier this week as the Federal Reserve became cautious about cutting interest rates. However, geopolitical risks in the Middle East still boost safe-haven demand, which could limit the decline in gold prices.

Atlanta Fed President Bostic said Tuesday he is in no rush to cut interest rates but wants to wait longer to ensure inflation doesn't start to fluctuate. Fed officials warned the Fed needs more evidence that inflation is easing before it starts cutting interest rates, emphasizing that the Fed could keep interest rates high for a longer period of time. This could boost the US Dollar and put gold prices in US Dollars under pressure. Gold's decline may be limited amid US-China trade tensions, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and strong demand from central banks and buyers in Asia, which could support gold subsidy.

Overall assessment, the technical picture for gold prices will continue to lean towards the possibility of price increase with short-term technical levels noted as follows.
