Is time for Gold bull to give up?The Fed's shift has shaken the market, ending the gold bulls' party. One of the main drivers behind gold's recent rise has been Federal Reserve rate cuts and signs of a slowing U.S. economy. However, the opposite trend is emerging, with the Fed likely pausing rate cuts now. Further trade wars could begin as early as Q1 2025 under Trump, potentially driving inflation higher and dampening gold demand. Additionally, ongoing efforts to negotiate a truce between Russia and Ukraine may further reduce gold's appeal. Technically, the price has broken below the December 6 and November 26 lows. As long as it remains under $2634, the double top/rectangle pattern indicates a potential drop to $2499. However, a more immediate target for short-term traders is yesterday's low at $2576.

After the Fed’s Rate Cut: Gold’s Price Action and What’s NextYesterday was another wildly volatile day for OANDA:XAUUSD , with prices dropping approximately 600 pips following the Fed's rate cut. After breaking below the 2645-2650 confluence support on Tuesday, the market entered a day of consolidation with a tight trading range. However, the calm didn’t last long... Yesterday's sharp decline took prices below the 2610-2615 technical support zone and even breached the critical 2600 level. Overnight, Gold rebounded back above 2600, but in my opinion, this recovery is likely a normal retracement and does not signal a bottom for the yellow metal. For bears, the sell zone begins at 2620 and extends slightly past 2630, accounting for the heightened volatility. This area presents an opportunity to look for short entries. The initial target for this move would be yesterday's low, but I wouldn’t be surprised to see Gold drop further toward the 2525 key support level in the near future. As long as prices remain below the 2650-2660 resistance range, the outlook for XauUsd stays firmly bearish .

Gold Drops $65 as Bearish Momentum Dominates Post-Fed DecisionGold Technical Analysis Gold prices dropped approximately $65 yesterday following the Federal Reserve's rate decision. The market continues to exhibit bearish momentum as long as it trades below 2623 and 2612, targeting 2585. A break below 2585, confirmed by a 1-hour or 4-hour candle close, could push the price further down to 2558. The gold market is expected to remain volatile, with the upcoming GDP report playing a crucial role: If GDP comes in below the expected 2.8%, this could support a bullish move. If GDP exceeds 2.8%, this could reinforce the bearish trend. Key Levels Pivot Point: 2612 Resistance Levels: 2623, 2638, 2653 Support Levels: 2585, 2572, 2558 Trend Outlook Bearish below 2623 and 2612 Bullish above 2623

$2800- $3000: how does gold hold steady amid global uncertainty?Gold has once again emerged as a focal point in global financial markets, gaining significant attention from investors amidst economic instability and geopolitical tensions. In 2024, the price of gold increased by over 28%, reaffirming its role as a reliable asset for capital preservation during uncertain times. Below, we explore the primary factors influencing gold prices, investment strategies, and future prospects for this precious metal. What Drives Gold Prices? 1. Geopolitical Tensions as a Catalyst: Political and military conflicts , such as those in the Middle East, amplify the appeal of gold as a "safe haven." During periods of uncertainty, gold becomes a hedge against shocks in the global economy, prompting higher demand from both individual investors and institutions. 2. Impact of U.S. Federal Reserve Policy: The Federal Reserve's monetary decisions significantly influence gold prices. The current economic environment, shaped by pressure for lower interest rates, benefits gold as an asset class. Under the influence of a potentially “dovish” U.S. administration, expectations of sustained inflation and reduced rates create a favorable backdrop for gold. 3. Increased Central Bank Purchases: Central banks worldwide have been actively boosting their gold reserves. Gold serves as a hedge against inflation and currency fluctuations, particularly for economies in regions like India and the Middle East, where the metal holds cultural and financial significance. Investment Opportunities in Gold Investing in gold offers diverse options, each catering to different risk appetites and levels of expertise: • Gold ETFs: Exchange-traded funds are an accessible entry point for novice investors due to their simplicity and low barriers to entry. These funds allow investors to gain exposure to gold without the complexities of physical ownership. • Shares of Gold Mining Companies: Stocks in companies like Newmont (USA), Barrick Gold (Canada), and Freeport-McMoRan (USA) offer potential for higher returns compared to direct gold investments. However, they come with added risks due to market volatility and company-specific factors. • Gold Futures: Futures contracts enable investors to lock in prices and mitigate volatility. This strategy is best suited for experienced investors who understand market dynamics and risk management. Outlook for 2025 The combination of geopolitical instability, high inflation, and low interest rates sets the stage for continued growth in gold prices. Over the next six months, gold prices are projected to reach $2800 per ounce. While crossing the $3000 mark may seem overly optimistic, it remains a possibility under certain geopolitical scenarios. As global economic uncertainties persist, gold's role as a stable and reliable investment is likely to strengthen, ensuring its continued relevance in diversified portfolios.

GOLD // trade the correctionThe correction is valid, and the daily is in sync with H4 in the short countertrend. There is a clean (not yet tested) brekout on H4 that may stop the price from falling, but scale-in is possible when the valid H4 long countertrend breaks. Target zone is the daily 138.2 and the correction fibo 38.2 levels. ——— We may not know what will happen, but we can prepare ourselves to respond effectively to whatever unfolds. Stay grounded, stay present. 🏄🏼‍♂️ Your comments and support are appreciated! 👊🏼

Gold - TRIO RETEST!Dear TradingView community and fellow traders, I find the daily chart for Gold to be interesting as it appears to be forming one of my favorite patterns. What I call TRIO RETEST Here is why the blue circle is a strong zone to keep an eye on: 1️⃣ => Overall Trend Gold has been bullish long-term trading inside the rising broadening wedge in blue and now approaching the lower blue bound / trendline acting as a non-horizontal support. 2️⃣ => Round Number The $2,500 marked in green is a strong round number. 3️⃣ => Oversold Zone Gold is bearish short-term trading inside the falling channel in red and now approaching the lower red trendline which I consider an oversold zone. As per my trading style: As Gold approaches the blue circle zone, I will be looking for bullish reversal setups (like a double bottom pattern, trendline break, and so on...) 📚 Hope you find this post useful. It's important to always adhere to your trading plan, including entry points, risk management strategies, and trade management techniques.
