Gold soared amid U.S. election instability and geopolitical riskSpot gold prices surpassed $2,770 on Wednesday as market participants sought safety ahead of significant data releases and the upcoming U.S. elections. The precious metal gained momentum before Wall Street opened, accelerating after the release of U.S. data. The Conference Board's consumer confidence index rose to 108.7 in October, up from 99.2 in September. The present situation index increased to 138.0, while the expectations index surged to 89.1, well above the 80 threshold that typically signals an impending recession. Personal opinion: XAU/USD has pulled back slightly from a new high but is still holding most of its gains for the day, trading around $2,766. The technical indicators on the daily chart still suggest that a further bullish trend could continue, indicating the possibility of another price increase in the near future.

Gold prices slipped slightly this week amid strong USD demand.Gold prices (XAU/USD) faced pressure on Friday, erasing some of the previous gains due to USD buying amid a weaker dollar and expectations of less aggressive easing from the Fed. Positive sentiment in the stock market also reduced demand for gold. However, political uncertainty in the U.S. ahead of the November 5 presidential election, ongoing geopolitical risks in the Middle East, and falling Treasury yields continued to support gold prices, leading to caution about whether XAU/USD has peaked. Personal opinion: The 2,640-2,645 range is becoming a strong barrier. If the price breaks above this level, the head and shoulders pattern will be invalidated, allowing gold to challenge the historical high around 2,658-2,659 that it reached earlier this week. If it continues to rise, XAU/USD could reach 2,770, which corresponds to the resistance level of the nearly four-month upward trend, before targeting the round number of 2,800. Attention to price range: Buy Zone: 2719 - 2717 SL: 2712 Sell Zone: 2748 - 2750 SL: 2755 Sell Zone: 2758 - 2760 SL: 2765

Gold needs to hit $2,740 to keep rising.Gold prices continued to rise in the Asian trading session on Friday, marking the second consecutive day of consolidation. Although it reached a record high of $2,759 on Wednesday, prices remained confined within a familiar range since the beginning of the week. The fluctuations in gold prices are influenced by expectations that the Federal Reserve may adopt a less aggressive easing policy, along with uncertainties surrounding the presidential election and geopolitical tensions in the Middle East. Additionally, earnings reports from U.S. companies play a crucial role in shaping risk sentiment, which in turn affects the value of the U.S. dollar (USD) and gold prices. Personal opinion: To maintain a sustainable upward trend, surpassing the resistance level of $2,740 is really important. If successful, this will open up opportunities for gold buyers to continue targeting the psychological barrier of $2,750. If they can break through this level, the next goal will be the record high of $2,759. This indicates that the market is showing positive signs and could continue to grow, offering hope to investors. Pay attention to the price range: Buy Zone: 2704 - 2702 SL: 2697 Buy Zone: 2713 - 2711 SL: 2706 Sell Zone: 2740 - 2742 SL: 2747

Gold prices edged up as U.S. yields fell and the dollar weakenedThe slight decline of the USD and U.S. Treasury yields may reflect stable market sentiment in Asia following a technology sell-off on Wall Street. U.S. stock futures rebounded as risk was re-established, thanks to strong earnings reports from Tesla Inc. Tesla reported adjusted earnings of 72 cents per share for the quarter, surpassing analysts' average estimates and ending a streak of four consecutive quarters of missed expectations. The company noted that the Cybertruck, delivered for the first time late last year, has started to turn a profit. Personal opinion: The price of gold is currently facing strong resistance at $2,723. This is the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level from the recent record price increase, where the price rose from $2,604 on October 10 to an all-time high of $2,759. If it breaks above this level, buyers may find it easier to surpass the psychological barrier of $2,750. The next target will be the record high of $2,759. Pay attention to the price range: Buy Zone: 2712 - 2710 SL: 2705 Sell Zone: 2759 - 2761 SL: 2766 Sell Scalp: 2736 - 2738 SL: 2743

Gold stays high despite rising U.S. yields and a stronger dollarGold prices (XAU/USD) reached a new record high on Wednesday, surpassing $2,750 in the European trading session. Risk-averse sentiment and the threat of escalating tensions in the Middle East have driven capital into the precious metal. Political instability in the U.S. and accommodative monetary policy have also supported gold prices. Despite the U.S. dollar rising to its highest level since early August, bullish sentiment remains strong. Expectations that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates less and concerns about spending deficits following the presidential election have pushed U.S. Treasury yields to a three-month high, which could hinder further growth in XAU/USD amid light overbought conditions. Personal opinion: XAU/USD has faced resistance near the $2,750 level, followed by the $2,767 area, which is the upper boundary of a two-week upward channel. If this barrier is cleared, it’s likely that the price of gold will continue to grow. If that happens, we could see gold reaching the $2,800 mark. Pay attention to the price range: Buy Zone: 2738 - 2736 SL: 2731 Buy Scalp: 2749 - 2747 SL: 2742 Sell Zone: 2767 - 2769 SL: 2774

Gold is rising back to $2,741 early Tuesday.The greenback has retreated from its highest level in nearly three months in Asian trading on Tuesday, as U.S. Treasury yields reinforced the previous price increase. The dollar's pause and rising yields have provided buyers with an opportunity after Monday's sharp drop from record highs. A moderate risk tone and uncertainty ahead of the U.S. presidential election have revived demand for gold as a safe haven. However, it's unclear whether gold prices will sustain their upward momentum and reach new record levels, especially as Chinese stocks show signs of recovery. Expectations for a less aggressive stance from the Fed may also limit the upward trend of this precious metal. Personal opinion: Gold prices are currently attempting to test the record high of $2,741. In this context, buyers are actively pushing back, trying to regain control of the market. The competition between buyers and sellers is intense, creating a lively atmosphere in gold trading. Pay attention to the price range: Buy Zone: 2705 - 2703 SL: 2698 Buy Zone: 2716 - 2714 SL: 2709 Sell Zone: 2740 - 2742 SL: 2747 Sell Zone: 2750 - 2752 SL: 2757

Gold seems to be preparing for a correction from its record highThe US dollar (USD) maintains an adjustment regime, reflecting a decline in US Treasury yields. Chinese stocks have rebounded after the People's Bank of China (PBOC) lowered the one-year loan prime rate (LPR) from 3.35% to 3.10%. Although the market's initial reaction was not strong, there are still expectations for further stimulus measures from China. This optimism, combined with ongoing tensions between Israel and Iran, has supported gold prices. Personal opinion: The US dollar's adjustment regime reflects economic volatility. The PBOC's interest rate cut aims to boost China's growth, but the market's weak reaction shows caution due to geopolitical tensions, like those between Israel and Iran. This situation compels investors to tread carefully, especially with gold prices supported by these uncertainties. Pay attention to the price range: Buy Zone: 2704 - 2702 SL: 2697 Buy Scalp: 2719 - 2717 SL: 2712 Sell Zone: 2748 - 2750 SL: 2755

The price of gold has reached an all-time high.Gold prices (XAU/USD) rose for the fourth straight day, surpassing $2,712 and reaching a new record high in Asian trading on Friday.

Positive U.S. economic data on Thursday reinforced expectations for modest Fed rate cuts, boosting the dollar to its highest level since early August. Despite this, bullish sentiment around gold remains strong as prices trend upward this week. Personal opinion: The recent rise in gold prices is driven by geopolitical tensions and anticipated interest rate cuts, making it attractive for investors seeking a safe haven. It’s interesting to see how external events strongly influence the market. Gold seems well-positioned to continue attracting interest. Pay attention to the price range: Buy zone: 2690 - 2688 SL: 2683 Buy Scalp: 2702 - 2700 SL: 2695 Sell Zone: 2722 - 2724 SL: 2729

Gold is at a record high, and a rising USD may limit growth.Gold prices (XAU/USD) rose for the third consecutive day on Thursday, marking the sixth positive day in the last seven, as it tested an all-time high in Asian trading. Anticipated rate cuts from major central banks and geopolitical risks from the Middle East are driving interest in gold. Meanwhile, expectations of modest Fed rate cuts next year have kept the US dollar (USD) near its highest level since early August, limiting new bullish bets on gold. Traders are now focused on US macro data for momentum in the North American session. Personal opinion: Currently, there are positive signs that could push gold prices up to $2,700. If there are more buying transactions, this will create new momentum for optimistic traders, helping to extend the upward trend for several months. This outlook is further reinforced by the fact that daily chart fluctuations remain in the positive zone and are still far from being overbought. Pay attention to the price range: Buy zone: 2650 - 2652 SL: 2645 Buy zone: 2664 - 2666 SL: 2659 Sell zone: 2684 - 2686 SL: 2691 SELL ZONE: 2700

Gold reached a three-week high, capped by a rising dollar.Gold prices (XAU/USD) rose for the second consecutive day on Wednesday, reaching a three-week high around $2,677-$2,678 due to a downturn in the stock market and geopolitical risks. The flight to safety led to a decline in U.S. Treasury yields, supporting gold. However, expectations of less aggressive easing from the Federal Reserve and a strengthening U.S. Dollar may limit gold's upward momentum in the near term. Personal opinion: Any further price increases are likely to encounter resistance near the $2.685-$2.686 range or the all-time high reached in September. Following that is the round number of $2.700; a decisive breakout above this level would set the stage for a multi-month uptrend amid positive fluctuations on the daily chart. Pay attention to the price range: Buy Zone: 2647 - 2645 SL: 2640 Buy Zone: 2660 - 2658 SL: 2653 Sell Zone: 2683 - 2685 SL: 2690

HSI significant pull back! FX:HKG33 Look at 1H chart movement together with the MACD & KDJ indicator, the histogram for MACD line & signal line is getting weaker (you can see both indicators curve seems lower than the previous wave). We should monitor. marked the time zone where the index turned bearish for the 1H chart. There was no re-entry position as trading in Asia time zone. The significant pull-back continues when market re-open here. It's 10% pull back this morning. Well, this is a good chance to look at for a better re-entry level. However, we should be cautious to avoid catching falling knives 🗡 what we see from the 1H chart MACD & KDJ both are on the downtrend level/bearish red zone. However, we can look at the support level at 21580. If the index stays above this level then the uptrend is still intact. Otherwise, we could expect a more significant pull-back (cross-check with longer tf chart 4H,8H). For shorter 1H tf swing trade check the 8H Chart for support/resistance level Find support level at 21500-21700 and resistance level 22000 -22300 It has been climbing too fast and taking a break now. Personal POV, prefer the movement slow and steady forming a stable staircase; more sustainable. Happy trading everyone! A pull-back is healthy for taking a breather.

You must have seen that various Technical indicators many a times indicate same or similar levels. Thus instead of trying to master many indicators, if you can focus on a few and master them, you will be more often correct. As Bruce Lee has famously said and I quote him, "I am not afraid of someone who knows 10000 kicks, I am afraid of the one who has practised 1 kick 10,000 times." It is also said in Sanskrit 'Sarva Deva Namaskaram, Keshavam Prati gacchati'. Pray to any of the divine forces but they ultimately end up at the feet of the supreme God head. Nasiruddin Shah had also said in a movie (Kabhi Haan Kabhi Na) "Idhar se jao, udhar se jao, ultimately sab rasta God ke pass jata hai." Deducing from it many indicators often yield same results. Master 2 or 3 of them and they will make you a great analyst. Conclusion: Learn, unlearn, relearn and master a few indicators rather than trying to know many indicators. They will help you create generational wealth.
