Gold Bullish or Bearish

Recommended Posts

probably 1650/48 zone yansen..upside may be capped at 1.671/5 today. if 1684 is breached, then look for 1732...a breaking below the 1630 level would send gold down to 1613 level. if it does not stop there, then 1561 is the next target...

Gold momentum looking good for 1640.00 daily support after having cleared 1660.00 level. Obsidian, thank you very much for your comments on the XAUUSD. Will wait for 1630.00 to enter a short order.

I believe gold is in her sideways period and should be left alone for at (the very) least this week. But all depends on one's time frame.

 

I Also want to sell it about 1660 or above...;-)

Today I expect gold consolidating between 1665 and 1640. short term indicators are pointing south atm and slipping below 1650 would confirm that

 

this range is still valid...it gold stays above 1655, going to test 1665 again

More like down, down and away.

 

It has been down and it might be trying to change from down to up. I would consider that as a possibility. But no one ever gets a free ride, so it will attempt to go back down and weed out the weak longs if there are any. So it may once again look like it is going down but the move will only be traders stealing the longs from weaker players. How far down it goes will depend upon how may weak longs have entered or will enter.

 

Fundamentally, gold is likely to go up since the sounds of stimulus are in the media again. In light of the EZ issues and its impact on the US, the fed may preemptively attempt to provide support to support what appears to be a stumbling economy. Stimulus is a more responsible word than printing money.

That might be so.

 

But what I am hearing is that, other than buying mortgage packed securities, there is nothing further the fed can do that it hasn't already done.

 

So other than flight to safety, which is a very good reason, I don't see a reason for Gold to go higher.

 

Commodities collapsing so no real inflation. Deflation sure is a possiblity.

 

The Euro collapsing which strengthens the dollar, swissie and yen. But not really Gold.

 

Just my :2c:

The fed can do more of the same. Not saying it will work, but it tends to force money into the market. They fear deflation. At the same time, Value is being eroded and gold is supposed to be a better store of value.

More of what?

 

Rates are basically zero. They can't keep loading up bonds on the balance sheet. What credibility they have left would be shot. That doesn't leave anything more than what I said: buy other types of debt such as mortgage backed securities.

They can destroy their credibility more by buying more treasuries.

    • Date: 29th March 2024. GBPUSD Analysis: The Pound Trades Higher But For How Long? The global Stocks Markets are closed due to Easter Friday (Good Friday). The NASDAQ continued to follow the sideways trend while other indices again rose. The SNP500 reaches an all-time high, but the NASDAQ remains under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple. The Euro continues to trade lower against all major currencies including the US Dollar, Euro and Japanese Yen. The British Pound is the best performing currency during this morning’s Asian session. However, investors are largely fixing their attention on this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. GBPUSD – The Pound Trades Higher but For How Long? The GBPUSD is slightly higher than the day’s open and is primary due to the Pound’s strong performance. At the moment, the British Pound is increasing in value against all major currencies. However, the US Dollar Index is also trading 0.10% higher and for this reason there is a slight conflict here. If investors wish to avoid this conflict, the EURUSD is a better option. This is because, the Euro depreciating against the whole currency market avoiding the “tug-of-war” scenario. The GBPUSD is trading slightly lower than the 2-month’s average price and is trading at 49.10 on the RSI. For this reason, the price of the exchange is at a “neutral” level and is signalling neither a buy nor a sell. The day’s price action and future signals are possibly likely to be triggered by this afternoon’s Core PCE Price Index. Analysts expect the Core PCE Price Index to read 0.3% which is slightly lower than the previous month but will result in the annual figure remaining at 2.85%. The PCE rate is different to the inflation rate and the Fed aims for a rate between 1.5% to 2.00%. Therefore, even if the annual rate remains at 2.85%, as analysts expect, it would be too high for the Fed. If the rate increases, even if only slightly, the US Dollar can again renew bullish momentum and the stock market can come under pressure. This includes the SNP500. Investors are focused on the publication of data on the UK’s gross domestic product (GDP) for the last quarter of 2023: the quarterly figures decreased by 0.3%, and 0.2% over the past 12-months. This confirms the state of a shallow recession and the need for stimulation. The data, combined with a cooling labor market and a steady decline in inflation, increase the likelihood that the Bank of England will soon begin interest rate cuts. In the latest meeting the Bank of England representatives did not see any members vote for a hike. USA500 – The SNP500 Rises to New Highs, But Cannot Hold Onto Gains! The price of the SNP500 rises to an all-time high, before correcting 0.33% and ending the day slightly lower than the open price. Nonetheless, the index performs better than the NASDAQ which came under pressure from Tesla, Meta and Apple which hold a higher weight compared to the SNP500. For the SNP500, these 3 stocks hold a weight of 9.25%, whereas the 3 stocks make up 14.63% of the NASDAQ. The SNP500 is also supported by ExxonMobil’s gains due to higher energy prices. The market will remain closed on Friday due to Easter. However, the market will reopen on Monday for the US and investors can expect high volatility. Investors will also need to take into consideration how the PCE Price Index and the changed value of the US Dollar is likely to affect the stock market next week.
