XAU/USD: gold prices are recovering 14.10.2024
Good afternoon, dear forum visitors!
NPBFX offers the latest release of analytics on XAU/USD for a better understanding of the current market situation and more efficient trading.
Current trend
The XAU/USD pair is showing moderate growth, developing the "bullish" momentum formed once again at the end of last week, when the instrument managed to retreat from its local lows of September 20. Gold is testing 2660.00 for a breakout, receiving support from expectations of monetary easing by global financial regulators. In particular, on Thursday, October 17, the European Central Bank (ECB) is expected to cut the interest rate by 25 basis points. Investors are counting on another reduction in the indicator from the US Federal Reserve in November. At the same time, analysts have practically abandoned the idea of adjusting the rate immediately by –50 basis points against the backdrop of statements by the Chair of the Fed, Jerome Powell, as well as macroeconomic statistics on inflation published at the end of last week.
In September, the Consumer Price Index slowed down in annual terms from 2.5% to 2.4%, with a forecast of 2.3%, and in monthly terms it remained at 0.2%, while experts expected 0.1%. The Core CPI excluding Food and Energy adjusted from 3.2% to 3.3% year-on-year and added 0.3% month-on-month. In turn, the Producer Price Index in annual terms fell from 1.9% to 1.8% with expectations of 1.6%, and in monthly terms — from 0.2% to 0.0% with preliminary estimates of 0.1%, while the PPI excluding Food and Energy rose from 2.6% to 2.8% with a forecast of 2.7%. Separately, market participants drew attention to the decline in the Consumer Confidence index from the University of Michigan in October from 70.1 points to 68.9 points, while analysts expected the indicator to rise to 70.8 points.
Additionally, gold is supported by ongoing geopolitical risks, which are only intensifying as uncertainty around the US presidential election in November grows.
Support and resistance
Bollinger Bands on the daily chart demonstrate flat dynamics. The price range is almost constant, remaining rather spacious for the current level of activity on the market. MACD indicator reverses to growth while forming a new buy signal (the histogram is about to consolidate above the signal line). Stochastic, in turn, shows a sharp increase and is already located in close proximity to its highs, indicating the risks of the instrument being overbought in the ultra-short term.
Resistance levels: 2670.00, 2685.56, 2700.00, 2720.00.
Support levels: 2655.00, 2640.00, 2623.84, 2613.83.
Trading tips
Long positions can be opened after a breakout of 2670.00 with the target of 2700.00. Stop-loss — 2655.00. Implementation time: 1-2 days.
A rebound from 2670.00 as from resistance, followed by a breakdown of 2655.00 may become a signal for opening of new short positions with the target at 2623.84. Stop-loss — 2670.00.
