XAUUSD | Price Action | New perspective | follow-up details

Welcome, traders, to this week's XAUUSD price action-based technical analysis.
Gold prices experienced a decline as the dollar surged to its highest point in over a week. As we gear up for the upcoming central bank policy meetings, including the BOJ and the Federal Reserve, there's growing anticipation surrounding potential rate hikes.

All eyes are on the Fed's meeting next week, where a quarter-percentage-point rate increase is expected. Analysts eagerly await Chair Jerome Powell's press conference on Wednesday for hints about the Fed's future moves, especially regarding their goal of achieving a 2% annual inflation target amid a robust economy and tight labor market.

As traders grapple with uncertainties about the Fed's path post-meeting, we find ourselves at a critical juncture from a technical standpoint. The XAUUSD price hovers around the crucial confluence near the $1,960 zone.

Сделка активна:

As we approach the mid-week Fed's interest rate decision, trading activities have continued to stay above theweek's key level at $1,960. This has prompted a bullish bias for the time being. Focus will be on seeking buying opportunities, especially if there's a breakout/retest of the recently identified resistance line at $1,962.50.

On the other hand, we also need to be watchful for potential selling opportunities if there's a breakdown/retest of the support line and key level. This could signal a shift in market sentiment and open up possibilities for profitable short positions. Let's keep a close eye on these price levels and be prepared to act accordingly.

Good Morning

Сделка активна:

Following our live session this morning, it was noted that the price action's ability to remain above the identified demand zone around the $1,958 and $1,960 range provides a reassuring signal for considering buying positions.

Сделка закрыта вручную:

The buy position has been closed, and unfortunately, it resulted in a break-even scenario. As we return to the status quo, we will patiently await new signals before considering any further actions.

Комментарий:

The recent drop below the $1,958 zone highlights the current strength of sellers in the market. It's uncertain whether the price action is experiencing a retracement phase that might lead to further downtrend continuation or if the newly identified descending trendline (red) will be breached, potentially triggering an uptrend. The course of action going forward will largely depend on how price action interacts with the levels identified on the chart.

After the release of the remarkable Q2 GDP data from the US economy, the market reacted swiftly, causing a significant drop in the price of gold. This rapid decline presented a valuable opportunity for us to capitalize on, as we managed to gain over 800 pips from three positions. Currently, the price seems to be undergoing a correction phase after testing the $1,944 zone, with buying pressure becoming evident. We are ensuring the security of all sell positions while also keeping an eye out for potential downtrend continuation patterns. We look forward to discussing this in detail during our upcoming live session.
