Gold Price rebounds as $ correction phase begins
Read my analysis dated 04 May 2022 (FOMC Day) here.
Yesterday, I alerted in my analysis the following pattern for traders:
Key Highlights for today:
Gold Price is capitalizing on an overdue correction in the US dollar, as the Fed poured cold water on aggressive tightening bets. Fed Chair Jerome Powell explicitly said Wednesday that the US central bank is not considering a 75 bps rate hike in June, sounding a less hawkish tone than markets had expected. The US Treasury yields also took a beating while the Wall Street indices gallops on a risk-on market profile. The dollar also felt the pain from reduced demand for safe havens, aiding the Gold Price rebound. Looking forward, the US Nonfarm Payrolls will offer fresh insights on the Fed’s forward guidance. In the meantime, the broader market sentiment and China’s covid lockdowns-led growth fears will continue to influence gold trades.

Fundamental:

After hitting the strong support zone of 1866, with a low at 1862 S zone, GOLD reversed furiously towards 1888/1907 zones, and was well alerted by me in advance as the rise stops: Gold struggled well at 1888 zone, before marching towards 1907 zone, CMP 1901, today’s high 1903
V pattern after completion of A pattern on M30 H1 H4 was well achieved yesterday with stops at 1888 followed by R2 + 6= 1896, and 1907 R zone.
In addition D1E2 and D1618 proved to be major support for GOLD price and I alerted well in advance quoting this level as RT zone.
As quoted yesterday: The next upside target for buyers is envisioned $1,907/1926.
In addition, I also alerted on 27 April 2022: Dramatic rallies are on the way, APRIL end + first week of MAY always have been volatile for GOLD traders considering Rate Hike policy, NFP and monetary policy related statements on the way.
