Gold price today: Waiting for new jumps!The price of gold continues to rise to its all-time high around $2156 as Chairman Jerome Powell's comments reinforce expectations of monetary policy easing this year. Betting on interest rate cuts is driving up the price of gold, and everyone anticipates that the easing will happen soon, further supporting gold.
The non-farm payroll report for February, set to be released on Friday, is expected to provide clearer information on the timing of the US interest rate cut. According to a Reuters poll, economists forecast that the US created 200,000 jobs in the month. If the employment figures are weaker than expected, it could push the price of gold even higher, nearing $2,200 per ounce.

EURUSD: Retesting the breakout zoneRKarina is delighted to meet you all again, to discuss and strategize for today!
As expected, EUR/USD is testing its highest level in two months around 1.0950 during the Asian trading session on Friday. This currency pair gained ground on Thursday, supported by prospects of ECB movements and a weakening US Dollar following a dovish tone from Fed Chair Jerome Powell. The upcoming US NFP will be the focal point today, determining the moves for this currency pair.
In the short term: Today, we prioritize selling as this currency pair undergoes a corrective trend after a significant rally. The pullback level is expected to be around 0.5 - 0.618 Fibonacci retracement (coinciding with the previous peak level for testing purposes).
USDJPY: Downward pressure remainsHello dear friends, as expected, our USDJPY pair has declined to the support level at 147.84 and is showing signs of consolidation. In this case, a cup pattern is also forming, and a corrective rally may occur, although it is unlikely to last long as the market is still anticipating an interest rate cut in the near future, which would weaken the USD and limit the recovery of USDJPY.
The expected price decline will continue if it reaches the 0.5 - 0.618 Fibonacci level (around 148.700). The target for sellers this time is 146.34. Wishing you happy and successful trading.
GBPUSD : Moving towards critical creature abilities !The GBP/USD pair remains steady above the psychological barrier of 1.2800 in the early Asian trading hours on Friday. Selling pressure by the US Dollar provides some support for the major currency pair. The highlight on Friday will be the US labor market data for February.
This currency pair has continued to gain points, although it has not yet surpassed the 1.2800 level. As mentioned before, buyers may not be able to sustain the value, and GBP/USD could face a decline. The next support level will be at 1.2700, followed by the 34-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at 1.2673. On the other hand, if buyers exten
Gold price today: Record high!Hello everyone, it's great to see you all again for today's discussion on the price of gold!
Currently, gold is trading around $2,145.560 per ounce, an increase of $17,995 per ounce compared to yesterday's price. This upward trend in gold continues today, driven by the expectation of monetary easing in the United States. Gold has strong potential for short-term growth as the Fed will not let the US economy weaken. The Fed is likely to soon cut interest rates, which will support gold.
However, gold also faces several risks as the precious metal is rapidly rising and reaching record highs. Profit-taking pressure may increase as a result. According to technical indicators, gold is currently overbought. This could mean a potential reversal to a downward trend if profit-taking activities intensify.
EUR/USD: rises to 5-week highRKarina greets everyone!
Today, the EUR/USD is testing its highest bidding price since the end of January, quickly surpassing the 1.0900 level to touch 1.0915 before stabilizing slightly but still maintaining an upward trend since Wednesday. This currency pair is currently in a corrective wave, however, a successful close above the resistance level at 1.089 and receiving support from the 1.085 area has opened up more opportunities for price increases for this currency pair, with an immediate target of 1.093 after completing the trend correction.
BTCUSDT Trading Strategy for BTCUSDT:
BTCUSDT continues to show notable stability, maintaining a high price above $66,000 this Thursday.
In the short term, BTCUSDT is trending sideways, with significant resistance levels identified at $67,500 and $68,700.
Clear support levels are marked, and the 34 and 89 EMA lines are displaying a strong upward trajectory in the near future. As long as the crucial support level of $60,000 remains intact, the bullish camp is prepared to maintain its advantage during this phase.
Gold price today: Will the upward momentum continue?The price of gold (XAU/USD) has taken advantage of its recent upward momentum and reached a new record high around $2,152 on Wednesday. This price increase comes amidst expectations of an upcoming change in the Federal Reserve's policy. Comments from Fed Chair Jerome Powell have reinforced these expectations, indicating that the central bank is likely to lower the benchmark interest rate by the end of this year. However, Fed Minneapolis President Neel Kashkari has tempered speculation of a more aggressive policy easing, providing some support for the US Dollar (USD) and preventing it from dropping to its lowest level since February. As a result, this has limited further gains for gold, especially when considering the excessive price increase on the daily chart.
At the same time, any significant adjustments in the price of gold seem unlikely due to the current geopolitical tensions. Furthermore, concerns about China's economic slowdown, as the world's second-largest economy, may continue to support this precious metal. Additionally, investors may exercise caution ahead of Powell's second testimony before the Senate Banking Committee and the release of monthly employment data in the United States.
GBPUSDThe GBP/USD exchange rate has increased by 0.31% during the North American trading session and is trading at 1.2746, after rebounding from the daily low of 1.2690. The spring budget announcement in the United Kingdom and the testimony of Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell have supported the rise in this currency pair, which is now poised to test the 1.2800 level.
USDPJY: Still under heavy downward pressure!Hello dear friends, what do you think about USDJPY?
In contrast to its counterparts such as EURUSD and GBPUSD, USDJPY continues to bear the heavy pressure of depreciation, with prices weakening further on Thursday. Currently, this currency pair is trading at the level of 148.50, experiencing a loss of 0.56% for the day.
This currency pair continues to face difficulties as the US Dollar weakens amid market expectations of a rate cut by the Federal Reserve in their June policy meeting, which is escalating.
Looking at the prospects from a technical analysis perspective: This currency pair is on its way to find support at the level of 148.10, and prices may recover from this point. However, the recovery may not last long as the EMA 34 signal has started to reverse and USDJPY has broken through the strong support level at 149.700.
XAUUSDWelcome back to a fresh discussion on the gold price for the upcoming week.
In the past week, gold has witnessed an impressive surge, continuously climbing from $2035 to $2088 and maintaining a stable price around $2080 in the early hours of Monday.
Looking ahead and building a strategy along with forecasts for this week: A survey involving 14 analysts revealed that none of them predict a decline in the gold price in the near future. Among them, 11 analysts, accounting for 79%, remain optimistic about the prospects of gold, while 3 analysts, making up 21%, hold a neutral stance towards this precious metal.
Regarding today's gold price forecast: Gold has started to undergo a price correction and shows a slight downward trend under the pressure of profit-taking from investors, decreasing by 0.15% in a day. This price breakthrough may lead to gold being retested at key support levels, so investors need to exercise caution to avoid being swayed by the price.
BTCUSDT: progressing closer to correction
Hello everyone, it's RKarina here again, let's plan our new week strategy together!
Today, BTCUSDT is trading at $63,728, marking a 0.96% increase as the week begins.
From the analysis chart, it is clear that BTCUSDT is approaching its all-time high and forming a cup and handle pattern. In my personal opinion, BTCUSDT is preparing for a corrective phase, with my target set at $51,500 and further decline to $41,500.
EURUSD: Defending the 1.0800 support levelHello comrades, today the EURUSD trading session kicked off with little changes. The currency pair is still gradually increasing and trading below the 1.0850 level in the Asian trading session on Monday. The US dollar is regaining its footing as it trades in the opposite direction in the Asian market, creating a sense of caution. Investors are still concerned about an important week ahead, focusing on the ECB's interest rate decision and Powell's testimony.
It is expected that this currency pair will continue to move sideways below the resistance level of 1.0856 before strong news impacts the trend as mentioned above. The support level of 1.080 continues to play a strong role for EURUSD during this time.
Wishing you all a successful and enjoyable trading week!
GBPUSD: Is this week's trend up or down?RKarina sends greetings at the beginning of the week to everyone, wishing you all a smooth and exciting trading week.
Currently, GBPUSD is maintaining a fairly stable price around 1.266, recording a 0.08% recovery during the day. The GBP/USD pair has formed a good recovery on Friday from the level of 1.2600, which has been a low point for a week and a half, and has attracted some positive momentum.
In terms of trends, GBPUSD is still in a sideways state, but in the short and medium term, it seems that the buying side is holding strong with price increases after this currency pair tested the 34 and 89 EMA lines and continued to move up.
My goal for this week is for GBPUSD to continue rising with two main targets, namely 1.270 and 1.276. What about you? Do you have a goal for an increase or decrease in price?
USDJPYHello dear friends!
Today, the USDJPY pair continues to trade deeply around the 150.32 level and maintains a sideways trend. It is expected that there will be no significant breakthrough in price today as no information will be released during the day.
Resistance levels: 150.64, 150.800 Support levels: 149.95, 149.700
Gold price increased dramatically at the end of the week!Hello dear friends, let's review the gold prices of the past week and discuss new strategies for the upcoming week with Kevin!
During the beginning of the week, gold prices remained relatively stable, mainly moving sideways around the $2030 mark with a resistance level at $2035. However, in the last two days of the week, gold gained strong buying momentum and broke through some significant resistance levels, continuously rising from $2025 to $2088 and currently pausing at $2082.
The international financial market has received economic updates from major economies such as the United States, Europe, and China. As a result, investors have been actively buying precious metals to protect their capital, pushing gold prices to the highest level in months.
Looking ahead to the next week's strategy:
Based on chart analysis, gold has surpassed the $2065 resistance level and is approaching $2090, but it is encountering some limitations as indicated on the chart. It is expected to experience a slight retreat as the new trading week begins, with a projected range of 0.5 - 0.618 Fibonacci retracement (which means testing the new support area around $2065 and testing the 34 and 89 EMA lines as the price has gone too far).
Wishing you all successful and enjoyable trading!
EURUSD: Critical support level 1,080 remains strong!Hello everyone, let's discuss the new weekly strategy for EURUSD with RKarina!
Yesterday, EURUSD continued to maintain a fairly stable trading level around the psychological threshold of 1.080. The currency pair received support once again from the 1.080 level, as it bounced back after touching this threshold. It seems that the buyers are still making efforts to protect this support level and demonstrating their notable strength.
Currently, EURUSD has temporarily paused trading at 1.083 and is approaching a nearby resistance level. There is a high possibility of an increase in price as long as the 1.080 support level remains intact.
EURUSD: Pay attention to defending 1.0800Hello dear friends, it's RKarina here again! What do you think about the next trend for this currency pair?
EUR/USD remains stable, hovering around the 1.0850 level, especially after Tuesday's trading session, which saw minimal momentum for this currency pair due to a larger-than-expected drop in durable goods orders in the US for January. Now, all attention is focused on the upcoming release of US Gross Domestic Product (GDP) data on Wednesday.
From the chart: EURUSD is currently in a corrective phase, facing downward pressure from sellers as it approaches the resistance level at 1.0888. The current support level is set at 1.079, with a notable possibility of price recovery in this area. Within the range of 0.5 - 0.618, buyers are closely monitoring this zone for opportunities to maneuver and compete in this currency pair.
Gold price on the weekend of trading weekend!Hello everyone, let's strategize for the new day with RKarina! It can be observed that yesterday afternoon, the price of gold increased significantly, surpassing the important resistance level at 2035 USD and approaching the level of 2050 USD before stabilizing around the 2045 USD range in the first half of today.
In line with this, the core PCE of the United States decreased from 2.9% to 2.8% compared to the same period last year. The annual overall inflation rate also decreased sharply from 2.6% to 2.4%, in line with expectations. This data confirms that the process of inflation reduction continues, causing a decrease in US Treasury bond yields. As a result, financial investors are shifting their capital from bonds to precious metals. The price of gold in the world today has the momentum to continue rising.
XAUUSD: little volatility, quiet tradingHello dear friends! What is your prediction for the movement of gold today?
Last night, gold briefly touched the $2025 mark before quickly recovering to stabilize around the $2035 range, facing challenges around this resistance level. Due to the narrowing Bollinger Bands, it is predicted that gold will have minimal volatility today, possibly fluctuating between $2038 and $2025.
GBPUSD: The risk of a price drop lurksThe GBP/USD exchange rate is hovering around 1.2680 on Wednesday as markets seek new impetus from the Federal Reserve (Fed) as investors gradually shy away from high-interest rate cut bets. Data on US Gross Domestic Product (GDP) inflation and Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index will be released this week.
Data from the United Kingdom remains sparse this week, with the market focusing on important figures to update expectations of interest rate cuts by the Fed.
As a result, GBPUSD is struggling to rise, with both short-term and medium-term corrections indicating a downward trend. The currency pair has already broken below the support level of 1.267. In the event that the next support level at 1.265 is breached, the possibility of a decline below 1.262 is entirely plausible as there will be no significant support points to prop up GBPUSD.
USDJPY: SELL OR BUY?Hello dear friends! Today, USDJPY continues to be limited below the resistance level of 150.750 in the early trading hours of the new week.
This currency pair is declining due to the decrease in US Treasury bond yields, amid cautiousness and concerns about inflation data in the United States. However, the recent appreciation of the US dollar may limit the downside of USD/JPY as long as the support level of 149.700 is well maintained, thus the possibility of a recovery for USDJPY is still considered high.
USDJPY: down sharplyDear friends,
USDJPY experienced a sharp decline today. The price has been consistently plummeting since reaching 150.844 and is currently hovering around 149.789 after half a day.
On the analysis chart: This currency pair has surpassed most of its important support levels, and there is still a favorable outlook for further price drops as the trendline has been broken. The defensive point and target for sellers are currently at 148.97.
