GOLD in March marked a record month of increaseWorld gold price stood at 2,259 USD/ounce, a sharp increase of 26 USD/ounce compared to last week's closing session. MARKET RECAP: NEW RECORD IN THE BOOKS Gold broke its previous record and crossed the $2,200 per ounce mark in an exceptional first quarter. This surge was mainly driven by investor expectations of a more accommodative monetary policy outlook. Following a period of significant interest rate increases in 2022 and 2023 in many developed economies, investors anticipate central banks like the Fed to start easing restrictions as economic growth and inflation stabilize. The future potential for gold's upward movement may be limited due to the already priced-in transition to a more relaxed stance. The Federal Reserve is unlikely to adopt a more dovish posture, which is necessary for significant gains, given recent guidance and inflation risks. If the FOMC delays action and shifts towards a more hawkish direction, gold could face turbulence. Gold typically benefits from lower Treasury yields and a weaker U.S. dollar, which are associated with the Fed reducing borrowing costs. BEYOND THE FED: GEOPOLITICS, CENTRAL BANK DEMAND The impact of global interest rates on gold's trend is not the only factor to consider. Ongoing conflicts, particularly the Russia-Ukraine war, have already increased the geopolitical value of gold and could provide further support if tensions escalate in the next quarter. In addition, strong purchases of physical gold by central banks will contribute to market strength. In 2022 and 2023, central banks acquired more than 1,000 tonnes of gold each year, signaling a historic pace. The Central Bank of Turkey and the People's Bank of China were among the active buyers. Central banks are buying gold in record amounts due to its safe-haven qualities, stability as a store of value, and diversification benefits. As global power dynamics shift and U.S. dominance becomes less certain, central banks are strategically reallocating their reserves away from heavy reliance on the U.S. dollar. Limited data for 2024 shows strong demand for gold, with January's central bank acquisitions of 39 tonnes and projections suggesting continued robust demand throughout the year. This could provide a buffer against potential losses in a bearish market correction. THE OUTLOOK: NEUTRAL WITH A WATCHFUL EYE The second quarter may see consolidation for gold after its strong gains in the first months. A significant price surge is unlikely unless there are unexpected changes in global inflation and monetary policy. Investors should monitor economic data, central bank communication, and geopolitical developments for insights into gold's future. The upcoming U.S. presidential election could bring increased volatility and potentially benefit gold prices as a defensive investment. However, this is not expected to dominate the market in the second quarter yet. Assessing the outlook, it is estimated that gold price can easily reach 2,300 USD/ounce or higher in the second quarter of 2024. Resistance: 2260 - 2265 - 2270 Support: 2250 - 2245 - 2235 - 2225

GOLD decreased slightly after the session set a new recordWorld gold price decreased by 3.7 USD to 2,247.8 USD/ounce. After rising sharply to a new record high in the first trading session of April, thanks to expectations of US interest rate cuts and the appeal of gold as a safe-haven asset, metal prices This quarter has slightly adjusted this morning. Market watchers are currently expecting the FED to cut interest rates in May or June. However, many investors are still cautious about the pace of interest rate cuts by the US Federal Reserve (FED) in the coming months. this year and how long it will take for the FED to bring inflation to its target level of 2%. On March 29, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell said that economic growth is still strong and inflation is still higher than the target level. By June, the gold market will see gold prices increase due to expectations of interest rate cuts by the FED. Experts believe that, no matter how quickly or slowly the US Central Bank cuts interest rates, the agency will still reduce interest rates this year. Breakout: 2265 - 2230 Resistance: 2257 - 2175 - 2280 Support: 2245 - 2235 - 2222 - 2212

GOLD continuously set new recordsWorld gold price stood at 2,282 USD/ounce, a sharp increase of 33 USD/ounce compared to the same hour yesterday morning. This continues to be the highest price in world gold trading history. Gold prices continue to increase sharply due to the need for a safe haven amid increasing tensions in the Middle East. The increase in strength of the USD and expectations of US interest rate cuts have almost no impact on the rise in gold prices. Gold has increased steeply, reaching a new record, although at the same time some overbought conditions appeared, leading to a slight correction. However, gold's recent declines have been insignificant in nature, as potential investors are willing to wait for better entry points. In addition, strong demand from retail investors and central banks around the world is also a factor that helps prolong the rise of this precious metal. The combination of factors has helped gold bullion prices increase nearly 10% from the beginning of the year until now.

🖥 GOLD MARKET ANALYSIS AND COMMENTARY - [April 01 - April 05]This week, international gold prices rose sharply from 2,163 USD/oz to 2,236 USD/oz, closing at 2,233 USD/oz. The increase is attributed to positive US economic growth in Q4 2023, although it slowed compared to previous quarters. Inflation is also decreasing, leading investors to anticipate interest rate cuts by the FED from June onwards. The forecast for March 2024 non-agricultural employment (NFP) is 198,000 jobs, down from the previous period's 275,000. If this forecast is accurate, it will support the expectation of an interest rate cut by the FED, causing gold prices to rise. However, if NFP exceeds expectations, it could negatively impact gold prices. Additionally, the tone of the Fed Chairman's speech next week is uncertain. Gold prices are expected to rise in the long term due to the slowdown of the US economy and the potential recession risks. The inverted bond yield curve indicates that the FED will likely implement three interest rate cuts this year. Central banks buying gold will also support its long-term prices. However, there is a short-term risk of profit-taking by investors, particularly ETFs. 📌According to technical analysis, gold prices are still in an uptrend and may reach $2,300/oz. If economic data is negative, prices may face profit-taking pressure with support levels at $2,150-2,100-2,080/oz. Trading plan: sell at $2,300 and buy at $2,150.

GOLD → Could NFP cause a counter-trend correction?FX:XAUUSD within a strong rally stops and forms a flat before the publication of NFP. Relative to 2288 a false breakout is formed, bringing sellers into the market. The dollar is in a correction phase, as is gold. The price is testing the local low of 2267.67 but still does not reach the strong liquidity zones of 2265, 2228, 2222. There is still a strong buyer in the market, but after the correction and the false breakdown of 2288 a seller appears. NFP is ahead, a rather important news, which can both turn the market and strengthen the current movement. It is worth paying attention to the resistance at 2288 and 2305. There is a chance to see the continuation of counter-trend correction, but before that there is a chance that a big player will drive the price to ATH before further decline to the specified liquidity areas: 2265, 2228 or to the support of the formal channel. Resistance levels: 2288, 2305 Support levels: 2265, 2228, 2222 Technical factors are not enough now to specify the key areas for opening sales or purchases, so it is worth to base on the fundamental reasons and strong resistance and support areas.

GOLD → Reached 2300. What's next, going higher or correction?FX:XAUUSD breaks records and updates the high to 2305, but technically, the implied target is still not reached. Today Initial Jobless Claims before NFP is published and the market may go into a consolidation phase. On D1 we see the dollar declining after a false break of the resistance at 104.94 as well as the downside resistance. Ahead of Initial Jobless Claims, in general, traders are waiting for neutral-negative data, the situation is still complicated, but Powell is trying to keep the market from Panic with his statements. Obviously, after the release of PMI and JOLTS data the Fed will not change the policy based on Q1 data. What is happening in the market now is emotion, but many people take it seriously. Still, we should wait for more important and factual data than just words in the air. The inflation rate in January-February was higher than in 2023, which was the reason for the panic "inflation will be even higher and rates will be held for longer". But, the latest data doesn't change the situation significantly. 2300 may become a key psychological level for gold and cool down the market a bit, which may form a correction. There are still some areas of imbalance that the market maker may test before resuming the rise to the resistance level formed on the monthly timeframe. Support levels: 2288, 2265, 2253 Resistance levels: 2300, 2325, 2337 Technically, a small correction to liquidity zones may start before further rsoot towards psychological levels COMEX:GC1!

XAUUSD New Bull Cycle mapped! Approaching first Resistance Zone?Gold (XAUUSD) has technically started its new Bull Cycle after breaking above the Resistance and previous All Time High (ATH) into green overbought territory. Being overbought in such instances isn't necessarily bearish but suggests that even though the long-term trend is now heavily bullish (and should be for the next year or so), we should look for key Resistances to offer relief pull-backs. As you can see on this 1W chart, there are strong similarities of the current Cycle (both Bear and Bull) with the previous one (June 2016 - August 2020). The Bear Cycle's come in the form of Cup patterns, while the Bull Cycles start on Channel Up patterns at the bottom of the Bear ones. During the previous Bull Cycle, the 1W MA50 (blue trend-line) has supported all the way from its bullish break-out (December 24 2018) until deep into the next Bear (February 01 2021). Right now the 1W MA50 has been supporting since October 09 2023, which is shortly after the dashed Channel Up started. That is an important pattern as it currently has a maximum upside to 2350 for a Higher High. The dotted Channel Up on the contrary, which was initiated at the bottom of the Bear Cycle has already touched its Higher High. This means that Gold's new Bull Cycle is facing its first significant Resistance Zone of the current run: 2300 - 2350. Relative to the previous Bull Cycle, Gold had it's first Resistance rejection on August 26 2019, making a Higher High and started to pull-back for almost 100 days (3 months). As the current bullish trend is significantly stronger than the 2019 one, the dashed Channel Up being narrower, I doubt that Gold will correct for that long, but on the next red 1W candle, we have to consider the possibility for a short-term correction. The August 2019 one pulled as low as the previous High before the rejection (bold black line). This suggests that 2220 - 2200 is Gold's floor at the moment and shouldn't be broken. Back to its overbought status, the 1W RSI gives a clear indication of that. Once it starts reversing inside an Arc pattern, we will confirm the correction we're discussing now. And after it forms systematically Lower Highs on quarterly intervals, we can expect by the 3rd Lower High to be close to the Top of the Bull Cycle. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

GOLD → A correction before further growth?FX:XAUUSD has been forming a small correction towards liquidity zones since the opening of the session. On the background of strong bullish trend it is quite logical scenario before the news publication. The dollar index is testing a strong resistance before the news and a correction is possible, which will only strengthen the growth of gold. But, it is impossible to determine in advance what kind of news it will be (bullish or bearish for the dollar). Traders expect bullish: ADP NonFarm, ISM PMI, and bearish: SP PMI. Also, the big question is what Powell will say tonight.... Technically, gold is still in a bullish trend. And it may continue after a correction. Resistance levels: 2288, 2300 Support levels: 2265, 2253, 2228 Technically, the market is bullish. A retest and false breakout of one of the above areas could strengthen the price again. But, the structure may break when the channel resistance (as support) or 2228 is broken, in which case the correction will be prolonged to lower zones. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD solid gains, extending positive momentumOANDA:XAUUSD Q2 TECHNICAL OUTLOOK Gold kicked off the first quarter of 2024 with solid gains, extending the positive momentum established in the latter part of 2023. During this upturn, XAU/USD soared to new all-time highs, decisively breaking past the $2,150 mark, and eventually reaching a peak of $2,235. While bullion’s technical profile continues to be bullish, with a clear pattern of higher highs and higher lows, caution is advised, with the 10-week RSI indicator signaling possible overbought conditions. When markets become overextended in a short period of time, corrective pullbacks often follow, even if they turn out to be temporary or relatively minor. In the event of a bearish shift, support can be identified at $2,145, followed by $2,070, as displayed in the weekly chart attached. Bulls will need to vigorously defend this technical floor; failure to do so may result in a retracement towards the 200-day simple moving average near $1,985. Further down, attention will turn to channel support at $1,920, then to $1,810. On the other hand, if the bulls maintain control of the steering wheel and look to push prices higher in the coming days and weeks, a successful breakout could add further bullish pressure, paving the way for a move towards resistance. channel at $2,255.

Gold approaches all-time highsIn the previous post on gold, we expressed our fears about the shiny metal amid a sudden spike in volatility and a slight drop in the U.S. market indices (accompanying the spike in VIX). Nevertheless, it did not take long for the volatility to falter and the fear to disappear among market participants. Quickly, the market leaped higher, and gold followed in tandem, breaking above $2,100. The overall picture improved at a fast pace, and now, gold trades merely $20 away from its all-time highs. However, as stocks and cryptocurrencies are reaching the euphoria phase, the case for a significant pullback in the two markets is growing, which could (temporarily) negatively affect gold’s performance; in our opinion, the stock market weakness is one of the biggest potential foes to gold going forward. Yet, this does not change our view of the big picture. We remain highly bullish on gold in the long term and maintain the price target of $2,300.

XAUUSD: Can it really target 2,850 by the end of the year??Gold is vastly overbought on its 1D technical outlook (RSI = 80.447, MACD = 42.840, ADX = 50.847) and the reason is that since last month's (March) breakout and monthly closing above the 2020 Resistance, it started a new bullish hyper Cycle. It is overbought on the 1W RSI also (74.802) while the monthly (1M) is only a fraction away too (RSI = 69.871). This is a heavily aggressive long term trend that until its peak won't offer many pullbacks and those will be limited. This 1M chart shows that according to the 1M RSI we're where Gold was on the August 2019 breakout on the previous Cycle. Before that both patterns pulled back and held the 1M MA50 and 0.5 Fibonacci level. The rally that followed the breakout, peaked at +98.09% from the bottom (Fib extension 3.0). The current pattern is at +25% since the 1M MA50 and 0.5 Fib rebound and another +25% until the end of the year would also complete +98.09% from the bottom. Our end of year Target is exactly on that level (TP = 2,850).

Goldaholics Anonymous Pour yourself a glass of Goldschläger and let's review the 12 steps before diving into this. 1. We admitted that we were powerless over the Fed -- that our balance sheet had become unmanageable. 2. Came to believe that a Power greater than our central bank could restore us to solvency. 3. Made a decision to turn our fiat over to the care of sound money, as we understood it. 4. Made a searching and fearless inventory of our finances. 5. Admitted to Peter Schiff, Lyn Alden, and Pomp the exact nature of our wrongs. 6. Were entirely ready to have big, fat Gains. 7. Humbly asked to avoid getting short squeezed. 8. Made a list of all the naysayers about to be harmed. 9. Sent direct messages to them to gloat in victory. 10. Continued to count our gains and polish our bullion. 11. Sought through fundamental and technical analysis to improve our entries and exits. 12. Having had a financial awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to other goldaholics, and practice these principles in all of our trades. Macro Fibonacci Below we can see the magic of Fibonacci extensions, measuring the last macro bull run to the 2016 low. Zooming in a bit, it is clear that these levels attract attention. Each one of these fibs acts as a step in the staircase. All we need to do is look at volume and price action to validate each level. The smart money had their sell orders at the 0.618 Fibonacci extension. The 0.5 could not hold which indicates that the next level down will be tested. Watch for heavy volume to come in there near the 0.382 level. In the U.S. stock market and many other developed financial markets, about 70-80 percent of overall trading volume is generated through algorithmic trading. Historical Price Action Looking back to the last bull run there are a few simple patterns to watch for... 1. Weekly MACD flailing around above the zero level. 2. Mark the down trends and wait for the break. 3. Price action is above the 20 Week EMA. Trading Setup Using historical price action the trading setup becomes clear... 1. Weekly MACD is flailing above the zero level. 2. The down trend line is clear. Wait for the break. 3. Wait for 20 Week EMA support. Now, the targets are the Fibonacci levels above, and the ghost bars look reasonable, however, it would be wise to take a look at what exactly is driving Gold on this path. The U.S. Dollar The Dollar index inversely pressures Gold prices so this is worth noting. 1. Momentum is shifting bullish as a bullish MACD divergence reveals itself on the daily chart. 2. This recent move was the 3rd wave down which often precedes a reversal. 3. The index is at the bottom of this future channel. As this index recovers back towards the 200 Week EMA, it will surely scare the metals market. However, the macro downtrend is only on it's first wave down. From a technical standpoint, the second wave is often the deepest as panic sets in from the failed recovery. Treasury Yields Yields recently had a similar bullish MACD divergence with a very weak recovery that followed. The trend is still clear and it's highly likely to roll over as it timidly approaches the trendline in the coming months. Gold has been riding along side Bonds so this should continue to drive up prices. Depending on the severity of falling yields, it could trigger temporary crashes in the metals. But longer term, buying the dips is the way to go. Trading is risky. Don't do it. Long Bullion: Gold, Silver, Platinum Equities: GDX, PHYS, CEF, SLV, RIO, SPPP Futures: (Not yet)

GOLD → The market's buying back the fall. Next up, 2300?FX:XAUUSD is still very strong. The price does not react to the news properly, only as a short-term reaction. The market is quickly buying back the decline and testing resistance. Buying potential is quite strong, the probable area of the first stop could be the zone 2300-2325. On H1, an intermediate sideways range is formed after a false breakdown of channel resistance. The price defines the lower boundary as 2228 without reaching the strong support at 2222, which indicates that the bulls are very much keeping the price away from risk zones. A retest of the resistance is formed and there is a high chance to see a false breakout or a bounce followed by a correction, which may become a consolidation phase before further growth. Resistance levels: 2265 Support levels: 2228 High interest to the metal from investors, central banks favorably affect the strengthening of the metal, besides the role of hedge asset is now more than ever manifested in the market.

GOLD skyrocketed, the world reached a new peakThe world gold spot price is around 2,233 USD/ounce, a spike of 42 USD/ounce compared to the transaction at the same time yesterday morning. Closing last night's session, the world gold spot price in the US market stood at 2,233 USD/ounce, a sharp increase of more than 38 USD/ounce, equivalent to an increase of 1.74% compared to the previous session's close. Yesterday, the global financial market received more positive economic information in the US, the USD increased well but the price of gold - a capital security asset still increased too strongly to an unprecedented high. Specifically, the US announced that its gross domestic product (GDP) in the fourth quarter of 2023 increased by 3.4% over the same period, higher than the previous forecast of 3.2%. First-time applications for unemployment benefits in the US last week were at 210,000 applications, lower than the 212,000 applications forecast previously and last week. PCE price is an index measuring the price change of consumer goods and services exchanged in the US economy in the fourth quarter of 2023, increasing by 1.8% over the same period, much lower than the level achieved in the previous quarter. 2.6%. Thus, closing data on US gross domestic product increased compared to the same period last year, initial applications for unemployment benefits decreased, showing that the US economy is recovering positively. The decrease in PCE prices shows that the price of personal consumption goods has decreased, which will contribute to reducing inflation in the US. According to market rules, the USD enjoyed a very good increase in the session last night - early this morning. Specifically, the Dollar-Index - measuring the strength of the greenback compared to 6 major currencies, increased quite well by 0.28% to 104,217 points. Normally, positive economic information and the USD will cause gold prices to drop sharply. However, investors believe that when factors related to inflation decline deeply, such as PCE, it will promote the process of reducing interest rates by the US Federal Reserve (Fed) soon. Tonight, the US will announce the PCE price index for February. Current forecasts are that all indicators of PCE in February are higher than last month. In particular, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell will give a speech. Investors will look for more clues about when to cut interest rates, as well as the health of the US economy from Mr. Jerome Powell. Currently, 71% of market forecasts are that the Fed will cut interest rates for the first time in a series of high interest rate days in June this year. Experts say that if the PCE price index falls, it could be gold. prices will increase sharply. Because it is predicted that the Fed will cut interest rates soon to support the economy. If PCE increases, the Fed may delay cutting interest rates after June as forecast.

GOLD → A false break of $2265 will lead to a retest of support FX:XAUUSD has been reaching 2265 since the open. The price is moving out of the ascending price channel, which indicates a strong bull market. But, there is a huge imbalance area forming below, which can be liquidated before further growth. The dollar is also strengthening and the market is waiting for bullish news on the index today. In this case it may give a small correction wave for the gold market. Moreover, there is a huge area of imbalance at 2265-2222, in which case it would be logical to expect a retest of the previously broken channel resistance or even key support before a further rise. Resistance levels: 2265 Support levels: channel resistance 2245, 2222 Technically, we can expect a correction after the rally. The trend may continue from these support zones. Regards R. Linda!

GOLD there is a possibility of a downward adjustment this weekOANDA:XAUUSD ANALYSIS - Dollar down, gold up - Gold retests prior 2024 all-time high DOLLAR DOWN, GOLD UP Gold is influenced by a slightly weaker dollar at the start of the shortened trading week. Last week, gold prices showed an unusual evening star pattern, which can indicate a bearish trend reversal. The dollar is possibly stabilizing after a volatile end to the week. The main event risk this week is the release of inflation data on Friday. Limited catalysts are expected until then. Friday is a bank holiday in the UK and US, which could lead to a volatile USD movement if there is unexpected data amid lower liquidity. OANDA:XAUUSD RETESTS PRIOR 2024 ALL-TIME HIGH Gold prices attempted to close above $2195, the all-time high printed earlier this year before the latest milestone around $2222. This appears as a test for bullish momentum with a failure to close above suggesting that bullish momentum may require another catalyst to advance the bullish move. $2146 appears as the relevant level of support if bears are to regain control this week. To reiterate, Friday may cause elevated volatility should we see a surprise in the data – due to lower liquidity. Pay attention to the Breakout zone 2166 - 2180 Resistance: 2180 - 2186 - 2195 Support: 2166 - 2157 - 2150 - 2145

GOLD hanging high, not far from the historical peak set recentlyThe world gold price is trading at 2,190 USD/ounce, up 12 USD/ounce from yesterday. Investors are anticipating US inflation data, which could provide insights into the US Federal Reserve's policy pivot. Despite the USD rebounding, precious metals remain near their recent historical peak. Investors are waiting for US economic data to be released later this week to more clearly determine when the US Federal Reserve (Fed) will begin its interest rate reduction cycle. Currently, most experts are optimistic about gold in the near future, saying that this precious metal is strongly supported by expectations that the Fed will cut interest rates this year even though inflation is still "persistent". , strong demand from central banks and fears of geopolitical tensions. Gold reached a record high last week after the Fed suggested three interest rate cuts in 2024. However, commodity analysts are doubtful that gold can continue to rise due to its significant increase in March.

XAUUSD target hit. Now expect a 2100 reversal.Gold (XAUUSD) hit this morning our long-term 2260 Target, which we called for on our March 2021 (see chart below) idea: That not only made a Higher High formation at the top of the 5-month Channel Up that started on the November 03 2023 Low but also hit the symmetrical 1.382 Fibonacci extension as the last Higher High on May 04 2023. This has indeed been a long rise for Gold, which is now looking ahead of an equally lengthy correction, assuming the Channel Up and its top stay intact. If they do, we expect a 6-8 week pull-back below the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) and towards the 0.618 Fibonacci extension from Gold's last Low. That gives us a 2100 Target, which could make contact with the 1D MA200 (orange trend-line) for the first time since November 13 2023. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ** Please LIKE 👍, FOLLOW ✅, SHARE 🙌 and COMMENT ✍ if you enjoy this idea!

GOLD → Previously untouched terrain. Correction or growth?FX:XAUUSD is a pioneer. The price is testing new highs in a new, previously untouched zone. High interest in the metal, rumors and crisis leads to the fact that the growth of gold outpaces the growth of the dollar. Dollar Index (D1) Breakout of resistance and news The dollar is also rising. The price of the index has been supported by regulators for an extended period of time. The price is moving into a new range. What is interesting is that against the background of USD appreciation, gold is also rising in price. But this has its own reasons: the expectation of a rate cut, according to Powell, 3 rate cuts are expected in 2024. High interest to gold as a hedge asset, as well as the huge buyout of metal by central banks, which only fuels the price to strengthen. Gold (H1). Key levels and technical situation Technically, gold is at its highs. On D1 the price is testing the exit from the existing price channel. The closing of the session on Friday indicates that the market will try to move higher. The only thing that confuses me is the price going outside the global channel on the background of distribution, the metal, from the technical point of view, has no potential to overcome this boundary from the first time. A pullback or consolidation is possible. It is worth paying attention to two price levels: 2235 and 2222. A breakthrough of the upper boundary with the subsequent consolidation of the price above this level will continue the growth. The expected target in this case could be 2250. A break of the lower level may activate the liquidation of buyers, which will form a correction to 2212, 2200 Regards R. Linda!

GOLD gains are limited amid a cautious marketGold prices rose slightly on Monday amid cautious market sentiment ahead of important events, such as the FOMC announcement. XAU/USD increased by around 0.2% in early afternoon trading in New York, finding support near $2,150. The Federal Reserve will hold its March meeting and may adjust its forward guidance and economic outlook due to recent inflation concerns. The recent CPI and PPI reports show a worrying trend: disinflation progress is slowing down and may even reverse. As a result, the Fed might take a more cautious approach by delaying the shift to looser policies and reducing the scale of future easing measures. This could result in two rate cuts of 0.25% in 2024 instead of the previously projected three cuts. FOMC MEETING PROBABILITIES If policymakers signal a less dovish roadmap and delay the easing cycle, it could cause US Treasury yields and the dollar to rise. This may pose a threat to the current rally in precious metals, especially gold, and lead to a significant downward correction. However, if the central bank maintains its previous outlook and shows confidence in reducing borrowing costs, gold may have a better chance of moving higher. Recent data on inflation risks suggests that a dovish outcome from the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) is less probable. OANDA:XAUUSD TECHNICAL ANALYSIS Gold prices stabilized on Monday after a weak performance last week. The prices rebounded from support at around $2,150 and could potentially face resistance at the trendline of $2,175. If this resistance is overcome, attention will shift to the all-time high of $2,195. If bears regain control of the market, the first technical floor to watch for a pullback is $2,150. Bulls need to defend this zone to prevent further selling pressure. Failure to do so could lead to a drop towards $2,085, with potential losses shifting focus to $2,065. Resistance: 2162 - 2171 - 2177 Support: 2145 - 2135 - 2125
