Gold Technical Analysis – Eyes on the NFP report

Fundamental Overview

Gold got stuck in a bit of a consolidation this week after the Monday’s rally. Some renewed trade tensions gave the precious metal a boost in the final part of last week but since then things have calmed down.

    In the bigger picture, gold remains in an uptrend as real yields will likely continue to fall amid Fed easing. But in the short-term the repricing in rate cuts expectations could weigh on gold, so watch out for the economic data, especially the NFP and CPI reports.

    Gold Technical Analysis – Daily Timeframe

    On the daily chart, we can see that gold broke above the downward trendline and opened the door for a move into new highs. The buyers piled in on the break to target the 3438 level next. The sellers, on the other hand, might want to wait for the price to come into the 3438 level to position for a drop back into the major upward trendline.

    Gold Technical Analysis – 4 hour Timeframe

    On the 4 hour chart, we can see that we have a minor upward trendline defining the bullish momentum. From a risk management perspective, if we get a pullback, the buyers will have a better risk to reward setup around the trendline to position for a rally into the 3438 level. The sellers, on the other hand, will want to see the price breaking lower to start targeting the 3200 level next.

    Gold Technical Analysis – 1 hour Timeframe

    On the 1 hour chart, we can see that we have a nice support zone around the 3330 level. That’s where the buyers stepped in on the pullback to position for a rally into the 3438 level next. If the price continue to range and we get another pullback into the support, we can expect the buyers to pile in again, while the sellers will look for a break lower to extend the drop into the 3200 level next. The red lines define the average daily range for today.
