Gold Bull Run: The Market's Wild Ride and the Upcoming Big ShortGold Bull Run: The Market's Wild Ride and the Upcoming Big Short? 💰📉
Introduction: The market is experiencing an intense bull run, with gold (XAU/USD) fluctuating over 100 points daily, from 3080 to 3200. Market sentiment plays a critical role during this time, as a large amount of capital has entered the market, buying the dip across various financial assets. But the burning question remains – is this a strong recovery wave or just a bull trap before the massive BIG SHORT of the century in financial markets? 🧐
Technical Analysis: From a technical standpoint, gold is currently very unpredictable, as both the upward and downward movements have been swift and strong. We saw gold lose 200 points in a week, but it took only two days to regain and set a new all-time high (ATH). Currently, the ATH sits at 3200, and it looks like it could continue climbing today, especially with the PPI data expected to be released. 📈
Yesterday, the U.S. economic data came in negative, validating the strong rise in gold prices. This might indicate that history could repeat itself, with the upcoming CPI and PPI numbers also being lower, which would negatively impact the U.S. economy and lead to a weaker USD, causing gold to surge further. 📊💡
In the short term, consumer spending in the U.S. is decreasing, but in the long run, these economic figures are positive for the USD (DXY). This could be preparing the stage for a major BIG SHORT in the near future, possibly in June, with the first rate cut by the FED this year. 🏦
Short-Term Strategy: For now, we will prioritize a BUY strategy based on the news and the market's strong momentum. The FOMO BUY (Fear Of Missing Out) is stronger than ever. In the Asian session, we might see a minor pullback to the 317x range, followed by a rally during the European session. I will be looking for BUY entries rather than SELLing at this point.
