Gold Technical Outlook: CPI Data to Define Trend DirectionGold Technical Analysis
The price has reached the resistance level at 2689 and is attempting to test 2678 ahead of or during the release of CPI data. Based on current expectations, gold is likely to remain in a bearish trend.
If the CPI exceeds 2.9%, the bearish momentum is expected to intensify, with the price targeting 2665.
Conversely, if the CPI comes in below 2.8%, bullish momentum could quickly drive the price up to 2706.

XAGUSD Short-term buy signal above the 1D MA50.Last time we looked into Silver (XAGUSD) almost 2 months ago (November 22 2024, see chart below), we gave an excellent bounce sell signal that easily hit our 29.500 Target:
Based on this +2 year Channel Up, which remains valid, another break above the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line), would be a buy signal similar to July 12 2023. As you can see, the price continues to repeat the Channel Down of the Bearish Leg that started on May 05 2023.
As a result, our short-term Target is just below the 0.786 Fib at 33.0000.

GOLD BEARISH BIAS RIGHT NOW| SHORT
Hello, Friends!
Previous week’s green candle means that for us the GOLD pair is in the uptrend. And the current movement leg was also up but the resistance line will be hit soon and upper BB band proximity will signal an overbought condition so we will go for a counter-trend short trade with the target being at 2,619.804.

XAUUSD - The CPI index will determine the gold path!Gold is located in a 4 -hour timeframe above EMA200 and EMA50 and is on its uptrend channel. If weaken in CPI data and market concerns about inflation, gold buying opportunities.
The release of the headline stronger than the expectation of the CPI will result in the uptrend and decrease in gold. But in the secondary wave it will result in gold climbing.
Gold prices have reached their highest levels in approximately four weeks, nearing the $2,700 range. Recent changes in stock markets and concerns over U.S. economic policies have driven increased demand for gold. Several key factors have contributed to the recent price surges. First, rising global tensions, particularly involving major powers such as the U.S., Russia, and China, have destabilized financial markets, prompting investors to turn to gold as a safe-haven asset to shield against potential crises. Second, persistent concerns about inflation in major economies have made gold an attractive option for preserving purchasing power. Additionally, central banks have significantly increased their gold reserves, boosting demand. Finally, expectations of interest rate cuts or potential easing by central banks, including the Federal Reserve, have further enhanced gold’s appeal.
Gold prices have previously experienced sharp declines. Between 2011 and 2015, gold lost nearly 45% of its value, falling from its peak of $1,920 per ounce to $1,050 per ounce, driven by a strong dollar, rising interest rates, and an improving economy. Beyond this historical context, other scenarios could also lead to a 30% decline in gold prices. For instance, if the Federal Reserve adopts unexpectedly aggressive monetary policies and raises interest rates faster than anticipated, the strengthening dollar would exert downward pressure on gold prices.
A sudden increase in gold supply could also push prices lower, whether due to the discovery of new reserves or the sale of gold holdings by central banks or large institutions. Moreover, robust improvements in global economies alongside geopolitical stability could dampen demand for gold. Finally, growing investor interest in alternative assets, such as cryptocurrencies or other commodities, could diminish gold’s perceived value.
Paul Williams, CEO of Solomon Global, has forecasted that the factors driving 39 record-breaking gold price highs last year remain intact and could support further price growth in 2025. In his report, Williams stated: “The year 2024 reinforced gold’s role as a timeless and safe asset. In a world filled with geopolitical conflicts and economic uncertainties, gold has provided stability and security for investors. The record highs achieved in 2024 reflect not only market conditions but also a broader sense of caution and risk mitigation among investors. This trend appears poised to continue into 2025.”
Meanwhile, The Wall Street Journal has released predictions from 17 economists on U.S. inflation data set to be announced on Wednesday, January 15, 2025. In 2024, the Federal Reserve made limited progress in curbing inflation, with most inflation indicators only slightly declining from the start of the year. Although policymakers had hoped inflation would approach the 2% target, persistent inflationary pressures have kept it near 3%.
However, November’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) report offered a glimmer of hope. Prices in sectors such as housing and services, which have been major drivers of persistent inflation, have begun to ease. This may lead to an unexpected decline in Wednesday’s CPI data, although more significant decreases are likely in early 2025.
Analysts predict a monthly CPI increase of 0.3%, which is lower than the 0.4% forecast from the Federal Reserve Cleveland’s Inflation Nowcast model. According to these projections, annual CPI is expected to rise from 2.7% to 2.9% in November.
Given that markets currently price in only two 25-basis-point rate cuts for all of 2025, a strong CPI report may not elicit a major market reaction. However, if CPI data comes in weaker than expected, the U.S. dollar could face selling pressure.
GOLD after declining read capGold, after declining to around 2660, has bounced back and is currently moving steadily above the support zone of 2665 ==> This could support the gold price to continue to increase.
During the Asian and European session, you can watch for a downward adjustment with gold to the support zone around 2665 to buy again with targets of 2675-2690.
🐷PLAN for Buy: 2666 - 2664. SL 2661
GOLD road map (4h)The price will reach the top of Triangle = 2710 in the short term.Currently, the price is declining and it can go down to the 0.618 line and then reach the top of the triangle.

LONG TERM BULLISH - AB=CDAs illustrated, im visualizing what could be an AB=CD Pattern as a continuation structure.
We saw a strong bullish weekly candle that shows momentum and strength to the upside, and this might be our clue.
Keep in mind inflation data is likely to come in hot during JAN, which might lead the yellow metal to re-test its ATH within the next couple of weeks.
Also, geopolitical conflicts are escalating, which leads to nations to protect their economies by hedging gold.
Lastly, with China continuing its purchasing of Gold since mid NOV, the demand for gold continued growing.
It is likely we see $3.000 within the next couple of months.

GOLD Awaits Breakout Amid Key Data Releases!
GOLD is forming a symmetrical triangle, signaling a potential breakout soon. The price is consolidating near the 2675-2681 resistance zone, a key area to watch.
The PPI data released yesterday slightly disappointed dollar buyers, offering support to the forex market and causing a small correction in gold. Looking ahead, CPI data could bring further support to the market and drive volatility.
If GOLD breaks above 2681, we could see an upward move toward higher levels. However, a failure to hold above this zone may trigger a bearish breakdown toward lower supports.
Resistance: 2675, 2681, 2690
Support: 2667, 2656
The triangle’s apex suggests a decisive move is imminent.
Watch the CPI data and stay alert for the breakout! 🚨
XAGUSD - Silver, waiting for the release of the CPI index!Silver is in a 4 -hour timeframe, between EMA200 and EMA50, moving in its upside channel. If you continue the decline, we can see the channel floor failure and a limited support. Silver stabilization above the resistance range will provide us with silver climbing route to the supply zone, where we can sell at a proper risk.
The U.S. employment report for December disrupted expectations regarding Federal Reserve policies, highlighting the Consumer Price Index (CPI) as a key market driver. Job creation surged by 256,000, significantly surpassing the forecast of 160,000, while the unemployment rate dropped to 4.1%.
This data triggered a sharp rise in Treasury yields, with the 10-year yield reaching 4.79%, the highest level since 2023. Higher yields increase the cost of holding non-yielding assets like silver, which could face headwinds if inflation accelerates. Markets now expect the Federal Reserve to hold off on rate cuts until at least June, a notable shift from earlier forecasts anticipating rate reductions in spring. A hotter-than-expected CPI report could further delay this timeline, strengthening the dollar and potentially putting pressure on silver prices.
Silver’s industrial role continues to support its prices, driven by robust global demand in industries like solar energy and electronics.The production of solar panels, a major consumer of silver, remains a key driver, while geopolitical and inflationary risks have boosted silver’s appeal as an inflation hedge.
Gold’s stability in a high-yield environment has indirectly supported silver as well. Amid stock market volatility, investors have turned to both precious metals. The S&P 500 has declined by 1% year-to-date. Additionally, concerns over tariffs and the fiscal policies proposed by President-elect Donald Trump have increased demand for safe-haven assets.
Meanwhile, speculation around Trump’s potential policies, including tariffs and spending programs, has heightened market uncertainty. Markets are grappling with whether these measures will stoke inflation or negatively impact growth, creating mixed conditions for silver.
Major global banks are revising their forecasts for Federal Reserve monetary policy. Bank of America has stated it no longer expects any rate cuts in 2025. The bank believes the Fed’s rate-cutting cycle has ended and sees the next move as more likely to be a rate hike.
Citi has also updated its projections, announcing that it no longer anticipates a Fed rate cut in January. The bank now forecasts a potential rate reduction in May.
Deutsche Bank has similarly noted that the Fed is unlikely to lower rates in the near term. The bank believes the Fed is currently in a wait-and-see mode, with future actions heavily dependent on incoming economic data.
Meanwhile, Goldman Sachs predicts the Fed will implement two 0.25% rate cuts in June and December, totaling 0.5% for the year. This marks a revision from its earlier forecast of a 0.75% reduction.
Finally, Morgan Stanley has indicated that the likelihood of a near-term rate cut has diminished. However, the bank still considers a rate cut in March plausible due to an improving inflation outlook.
Gold on high time frame
"When looking at Gold on the high timeframe, the price has been fluctuating between the $2600 and $2750 zones consistently. Valid Order Blocks (OB), inducements, and other patterns are observable on the chart. I predict that the price will finish its pullback to the mentioned zones. It's advisable to monitor candle formations closely for a good buying opportunity."
Could the Gold reverse from here?The price is rising towards the pivot which has been identified as an overlap resistance and could reverse to the 1st support that acts as an overlap support.
Pivot: 2,693.13
1st Support: 2,657.78
1st Resistance: 2,718.80

GOLD XAUUSDIt's Monday, and I won't be opening positions today.
Globally, after the upward momentum and the historic highs, we are now in a sideways move, either a correction before another move up to 3000+ or a top formation. I like the first option better.
Locally
However, we can see that we have broken the resistance line but are coming back under it to gather liquidity from those who trade resistance line breakdowns. I'm looking at the yellow box above, which shows the liquidity we will take after a minor correction.

Gold's shakeout may not be overLast week in a video I expressed my concerns that the start-of-year gains were a bit suspect. So it is interest to see that a bearish engulfing day formed around a resistance cluster including a weekly VPOC and trendline from the record high.
Prices remain within a small symmetrical triangle on thew daily chart which could really break either way, but with such a strong bullish trend on the weekly, any retracement seems likely to be shallow. I also see gold hitting record highs this year.
For now, the leg lower from Friday's high appears to have formed in one way within the triangle, which implies at least one leg lower within it.
Bears could seek to fade into moves towards 2700 and target the HVN around 2646 or the lower trendline of the triangle.
Matt Simpson, Market Analyst at City Index and Forex.com
Gold prices under pressure from profit takingAt the beginning of the trading session on January 13 (US time), the world gold price fell sharply due to the high demand for profit-taking in the market after the price increased continuously in recent sessions. In addition, the USD also increased sharply. The DXY index reached 109.9 points, the highest level in 2 years.
However, according to analysts, in the last sessions of last week, the gold price continuously approached the level of 2,700 USD/ounce, showing positive signals for the precious metal in the future, despite the great resistance of the recovering USD and the rising US Treasury bond yields.
It can be seen that in the context of many factors against gold, gold is supported by the hedging tool of inflation, financial market fluctuations, economic and geopolitical tensions.
The latest survey results from WisdomTree, an American asset management group, show that the main purpose of using gold in investors' portfolios is "diversification" to spread risks, helping to minimize potential risks in other investments.
