Markets were now focused squarely on nonfarm payrolls data due later in the day, which is expected to show that the U.S. labor market remained steady through July.
Any signs of resilience in the labor market give the Fed more impetus to hike interest rates further, given that the bank is targeting some cooling in labor conditions as part of its crusade against inflation.
Framework H4 I'm working on. Gold can be seen moving sideways since the morning of April 8, very slight oscillation about 1930-1938. I think with such a large compression, tonight's NonFarm will be very strong, we should wait for the real news. then let's trade.
What are your ideas, let me know in the comments below. Thank!
