Technical Analysis: Key Levels to Watch

Support and Resistance Levels:

  1. Immediate Support: The $2,300 mark is a critical level. We advise waiting for a sustained break and acceptance below this point before considering fresh bearish positions. This ensures we avoid false breakouts and capitalize on a confirmed trend.

  2. Critical Support: If the price breaks below $2,285, the next targets are $2,254-$2,253, followed by $2,225-$2,220, and ultimately, the $2,200 psychological support level.

  3. Immediate Resistance: On the upside, the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) near $2,344-$2,345 serves as the first significant resistance. A decisive break above this could lead to a short-covering rally towards $2,360-$2,362.

  4. Higher Resistance Levels: Beyond $2,362, the price could aim for the $2,387-$2,388 intermediate hurdle en route to the $2,400 mark. Sustained strength past this point could challenge the all-time high around $2,450.


Indicators:

  • Bollinger Bands: The current setup indicates a consolidation phase, with potential for breakout movement.

  • RSI (Relative Strength Index): RSI around 48.24 suggests neutral market conditions, neither overbought nor oversold, aligning with our wait-and-see approach.


Fundamental Analysis: Market Drivers


US Dollar and Interest Rates:

  1. Fed's Hawkish Stance: The Federal Reserve’s recent announcement lowered the forecast for rate cuts this year, supporting elevated US Treasury yields. This has strengthened the US Dollar, making gold less attractive due to its non-yielding nature.

  2. Future Rate Cuts: Despite the Fed’s hawkish tone, there is still the possibility of two rate cuts in 2024 due to easing inflationary pressures. This keeps a lid on aggressive USD bullishness, providing some support to gold prices.


Geopolitical and Economic Factors:

  1. Geopolitical Tensions: Persistent tensions in the Middle East and political uncertainties in Europe bolster gold’s appeal as a safe-haven asset, potentially limiting downside risks.

  2. Economic Indicators: Investors should keep an eye on economic data from major economies, which could impact market sentiment and the gold price.
