Back to Live CommentaryGold price holds steady above $2,335, bulls seem reluctant amid reduced Fed rate cut bets
By TradeRadius | Mon, 29 Apr 2024 09:08:57 UTC
Gold price (XAU/USD) attracts some buyers near the $2,320 area and turns positive for the third successive day on Monday, albeit the intraday uptick lacks bullish conviction. Investors now seem convinced that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will delay cutting interest rates in the wake of still sticky inflation and the bets were reaffirmed by the release of the US Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index on Friday. This, along with a generally positive tone around the equity markets, turns out to be a key factor acting as a headwind for the safe-haven precious metal.
Meanwhile, the US Dollar (USD) comes under some renewed selling pressure in the wake of a strong rally in the Japanese Yen (JPY) and flirts with a two-week low touched on Friday. Apart from this, persistent geopolitical tensions stemming from the protracted Russia-Ukraine war and Israel-Hamas conflict act as a tailwind for the safe-haven Gold price. Nevertheless, the mixed fundamental backdrop warrants some caution before placing fresh directional bets around the XAU/USD ahead of the crucial FOMC meeting and key US macro data, including the Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) report.
Daily Digest Market Movers: Gold price draws support from weaker USD, lacks follow-through buying
Technical Analysis: Gold price remains confined in a familiar range as traders seem non committed
From a technical perspective, last week's bounce from levels below the $2,300 mark faced rejection near the $2,352-2,353 confluence comprising the 50% Fibonacci retracement level of the recent pullback from the all-time peak and the 200-hour Simple Moving Average (SMA). The subsequent downfall, however, showed some resilience below the 100-hour SMA and stalled near the $2,320 area (23.6% Fibo. level), which should now act as a key pivotal point. A sustained break below could make the Gold price vulnerable to retesting last week's swing low, around the $2,292-2,291 region, before dropping to the next relevant support near the $2,268-2,265 zone.
On the flip side, bulls need to wait for a move beyond the $2,352-2,353 confluence hurdle before placing fresh bets. The Gold price might then accelerate the positive move towards the next relevant hurdle near the $2,371-2,372 region en route to the $2,400 round figure. The momentum could extend further towards the all-time peak, around the $2,431-2,432 area touched earlier this month.
