Gold Spot / U.S. Dollar
Updated

GOLD → The market is waiting for a kick (driver). Consolidation

7 759
XAUUSD is in a stalemate. A “casino” pattern is forming in the form of a symmetrical triangle. The odds are 50/50, and everything depends on the fundamental background and the emergence of a driver.

Gold is stuck in a symmetrical triangle - consolidation.
Gold is trading around $3330 on Tuesday, remaining in a range with a downward bias amid caution among traders ahead of the Fed minutes.
Technically, it is possible to trade the breakout from consolidation with the price consolidating above a certain level, i.e., post-factum.
Optimism after the meeting between Trump and Zelensky, who promised to end the conflict, is reducing demand for safe assets, but expectations of a Fed rate cut this year are supporting the metal. An additional factor is the confirmation of the US rating by S&P. Powell's speech on Friday will be a key driver, while the dollar has partially recovered after its recent decline.

Resistance levels: 3349.8, 3370.7
Support levels: 3331, 3315, 3301


Volatility has been very low over the past few days, with the market waiting for someone to kick-start movement. Fundamental factors are contradictory, and technically, gold looks uncertainly weak. Based on this, I expect that a retest of the nearest resistance could end with a downward breakdown from consolidation.

Sincerely, R. Linda!
