Gold price analysis November 5
Fundamental Analysis
Gold prices reversed intraday losses to hit a more than one-week low and traded around $2,738, largely unchanged on the day ahead of the European session on Tuesday. Safe-haven demand stemming from a bitterly contested US presidential election and the risk of escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East provided some support for the precious metal.
Furthermore, the unraveling of the “Trump deal”, coupled with bets that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates further amid signs of a cooling US labour market, continued to drag US Treasury yields lower. This, in turn, fueled fresh US dollar selling and became another factor in favour of non-yielding gold amid cautious sentiment across global equity markets.
However, the upside momentum in Gold remains limited as traders seem reluctant to place positive bets ahead of the key event risks this week – the US presidential election and the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting. Meanwhile, the release of the US ISM Services PMI Index on Tuesday will be looked at for short-term trading opportunities later in the North American session.
Technical Analysis
Gold is trading sideways in a narrow range between 2747 and 2725. Today the market is focused on this range as it breaks out of the notable port zone of 2758-2760 and 2712-2710 to generate reasonable BUY and SELL signals. Today’s strategy is quite basic in a day when gold is trading dull and trendless.

Note
Gold holds steady below $2,750 as markets gear up for US election
Gold attracts dip-buyers after touching a one-week low on Tuesday and trades above $2,740. XAU/USD draws support from a combination of factors. Fed rate cut bets, declining US bond yields and subdued USD demand continue to act as a tailwind for the precious metal.
Note
Despite the election news, gold is still compressed within the range.
