How is gold price traded today?Hello dear friends, let's explore the price of gold together!
Regarding the developments and outcomes of the news on January 22nd: The price of gold experienced significant fluctuations, mainly trending downwards. This is due to the strengthening of the US dollar as the Federal Reserve is unlikely to cut interest rates in March. As a result, investing in gold becomes more expensive due to higher interest rates.
Conclusion on gold and trends: The price of gold is tied to a narrow range, trading around $2,021 in the Asian session on Tuesday. The market becomes cautious ahead of a busy week with policy meetings from central banks.
The "buy on dips" trading strategy for gold continues as long as the significant static support level of $1,980 is maintained. Evidence shows that the price is forming a cup pattern as we have indicated on the chart. The upward trend could strengthen further if strong buying pressure is received from this support level.

XAUUSDAt the start of the new trading week, gold saw a slight increase in price, reaching around 2025 - 2026 USD. This marks a 0.39% recovery and an approximate 8 USD increase up to the present moment.
It can be observed that over the past two weeks, the global gold price has experienced minor fluctuations, with no clear upward or downward trend. Last week, gold fluctuated within a range of about 10 USD and failed to break out even when the latest reports indicated a "cooling down" of inflation. However, everything could change in the coming days as the Federal Reserve (Fed) holds its meeting and makes interest rate decisions.
Currently, the markets expect the U.S. Central Bank to maintain interest rates at the meeting scheduled for midweek and rule out any tightening possibilities in future meetings. The release of the core personal consumption expenditure price index report over the past weekend showed that the "cooling down" of inflation has led many to believe that an early easing scenario could occur. For this reason, many experts predict that the Fed will maintain a cautious tone at its first meeting of 2024, which could benefit gold.

Gold: DOWNTREND?"Hello everyone!
Last week, the price of gold continued its slight decline, dropping from $2,029.6 per ounce at the end of the previous week to $2,018.5, a decrease of $8 after a week of trading.
Gold is currently under pressure from profit-taking, in the context of recently released US economic data that could impact the Federal Reserve's decision on whether to cut interest rates sooner or later. At the beginning of this new year, the price of gold seems to be moving sideways and still holding steady above the $2,000 threshold.
To make a breakthrough, the gold market needs encouraging signals from Fed officials. Some recent assessments suggest that the strong price increase of gold in late 2023 had anticipated the possibility of the Fed reversing its monetary policy. With the current caution of the Fed, profit-taking pressure on gold is increasing. At the same time, the continuous new records in the US stock market also reduce the attractiveness of gold.
In the short term, gold may face some negativity, but in the long run, it is expected to continue its upward trend. This is not only due to the possibility of the Fed cutting interest rates but also due to the pressure to reduce the use of USD from major economies, including China.
What about you? What do you predict for the price of gold this week?"
XAUUSDThe gold price today seems to have remained unchanged from earlier this morning, mainly ranging between 2021 - 2022 USD.
Although the US GDP growth has exceeded expectations and core orders have increased, negative factors such as rising unemployment claims and inventory levels, along with reduced personal consumption, will pose challenges to the US economy. As a result, some investors have returned to buying gold. However, there are still many investors who remain on the sidelines, observing the market.
Inflation in Europe has decreased to 2.9%, prompting the European Central Bank to maintain interest rates. The European Central Bank predicts that inflation in the region will gradually decrease to around 2.7% in 2024.
Considering the above information, it will be difficult for the gold price to rise significantly given the positive economic growth in the US. This indicates that the world's largest economy will not experience a recession and will achieve the desired soft landing as expected by its central bank.
Gold price today, increase or decrease further?Gold prices today surged from $2013 to $2020 per ounce at 6 am on January 26th. The reason behind this is the improved economy of the United States and the cooling inflation in the country.
Specifically, in 2023, the US GDP is projected to grow by 2.5%, a significant improvement compared to the 1.9% growth in 2022.
On the other hand, after excluding food and energy prices, the US core personal consumption expenditure (PCE) index retreated to 2%. This data indicates a decreasing inflation rate in the US, which could prompt the Federal Reserve (FED) to lower interest rates in the coming months. In such a scenario, the value of the USD would depreciate, benefiting the global gold prices.
Gold bounces off key support line ahead of Fed InflationGold price stays defensive near $2,022 as bulls await the key US data to extend the previous day’s rebound from a six-week-old rising support line. That said, the US Core PCE Price Index, also known as the Fed’s preferred inflation gauge, gains additional importance this time amid reducing market bets on the US central bank’s delayed rate cuts. Should the inflation figures fail to justify the recent hawkish Fed bias, the US Dollar will reverse the gains while allowing the XAUUSD to extend Thursday’s recovery toward the $2,035-36 resistance confluence comprising the 21-SMA and a one-month-old bearish channel’s top line. Following that, $2,063 and $2,090 are likely strong challenges for the metal buyers before targeting the previous yearly top marked in December at around $2,148.
On the flip side, the aforementioned support line stretched from early December, close to $2,010 by the press time, restricts the short-term downside of the Gold Price. In a case where the quote drops below $2,010, the previously stated bearish channel’s bottom line surrounding $1,988 will be crucial to watch. In a case where the XAUUSD remains bearish past $1,988, a convergence of the 100-SMA and 50% Fibonacci ratio of the metal’s October-December upside, near $1,975, closely followed by the previous monthly low of near $1,973, will be the final defenses of the buyers before giving control to the bullion bears.
Overall, the steady RSI and the metal’s recovery despite the US Dollar lure buyers ahead of important US inflation data for December.
USDJPY: Transactions are filled with greenDear friends, currently USDJPY is maintaining a strong upward trend, reaching 147.89 in early week trading.
In the short term, technical indicators continue to support the upward trajectory of USDJPY. This currency pair is attempting to recover after finding significant support around 148.00. The upward momentum may be further bolstered by the US Dollar Index (DXY) gaining traction from expectations that the Federal Reserve may cut interest rates in March.
Gold prices continue to plummet!Hello dear friends!
Gold prices experienced significant fluctuations yesterday, with the precious metal continuing to decline and reaching $2011. However, there has been a slight recovery, and it is currently adjusting back to $2015 during the early trading hours on Thursday.
Accordingly, the optimistic PMI index from the United States has helped the yield on 10-year US Treasury bonds recover from its daily decrease, putting pressure on XAU/USD.
From the observed chart: Gold is still trapped in a parallel downward channel and has broken the short-term uptrend trendline, as well as surpassed the support level near $2020. Prices may continue to decrease after the end of the short-term trend correction. The next target for sellers is the $2005 mark. If gold surpasses this level, it will continue to seek new momentum around $1982 and the lower limit of the downward price channel.
What do you think? Do you believe gold will continue to decline further?
XAUUSDThe price of gold today continues to trade quietly with little volatility, mainly moving sideways around the $2025 level and being confined within a narrow price range.
As a result, this precious metal is facing pressure as investors continue to lower their expectations of the Fed's first interest rate cut in March 2024. This factor has driven up US bond yields and the value of the USD, exerting downward pressure on the price of gold.
The current focus of the market is awaiting the release of the US Gross Domestic Product (GDP) data for the fourth quarter of 2023 on January 25th, followed by the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) index on January 26th.
These two pieces of information are expected to help shape the Federal Reserve's monetary policy more clearly in the near future, which will have a definite impact on the trend of the global gold price.
XAUUSDIn the European trading session on Wednesday, the price of gold (XAU/USD) continued its downward trend, despite a lack of strong selling pressure. The trading range has been maintained for several days, with traders exercising caution and waiting for further signals from the Federal Reserve regarding interest rate cuts. The market's focus is currently on key economic data from the United States this week, starting with the flash PMI index today, followed by Q4 GDP figures and Core PCE Price Index on Thursday and Friday.
Given the risks associated with this important data, expectations for the first interest rate cut by the Fed have now been pushed back from March to May, negatively impacting the price of gold. This is reflected in the slight decline in US Treasury bond yields, strengthening the US Dollar (USD) and limiting the recovery potential of XAUUSD.
It is expected that the long-term downward trend in gold prices will continue in the near future.
XAUUSD: Up or down?Hello everyone!!
The price of gold today is mainly flat with not much fluctuation around the $2021 mark. With a visible resistance level at $2035 and positioned below the EMA 34 and 89 lines, the downward trend is still continuing despite signs of cooling down.
Regarding news that affects the price of gold, investors are anticipating important economic reports from the US this week, including the PMI report, Q4 GDP data, and personal spending. This information will provide new indications about the Fed's interest rate policy. According to the CME FedWatch Tool, the likelihood of a Fed rate cut in March has decreased from over 70% to 43.5%, weakening the potential for a sharp increase in gold prices.
RKarina predicts that the price of gold may continue to decline but still remain within the defensive range from $2005 to $2008. Gold still has a chance to reverse its direction if it holds above this support level.
What are your expectations for the price of gold in the near
XAUUSD: Buy or Sell?Dear friends, currently the price of gold has dropped by about 6 USD after reaching a high of 2031 USD, following a clear downward trend on the chart. This is due to the strengthening of the US dollar, as the Federal Reserve is unlikely to cut interest rates in March. As a result, investing in gold becomes more expensive due to higher interest rates.
In addition, the core personal consumption expenditure index of the US, an important measure of inflation, also affects the Federal Reserve's decision on monetary policy easing. However, macroeconomic data from the US may not have a significant impact if the price of gold remains below 2,000 USD/ounce.
James Stanley, a senior strategist at Forex, predicts that the price of gold will stabilize around the 2,000 USD/ounce mark. He emphasizes that any price below this level would be a buying opportunity for investors.
How does gold price change?It is great to meet you all again to discuss today's gold trading strategy!
At the beginning of the new week's trading session, gold prices have slightly increased. At the time of writing, the price is trading around $2029, marking a growth of $4 compared to the previous closing.
Looking at the prospects for this week, all eyes are focused on the fluctuations of the USD in the context of monetary policy decisions by major central banks.

What do you think? How will gold perform this week?
How does gold price change?Hello dear friends!
The price of gold in the global market has increased at the start of trading in the US due to safe-haven demand amid escalating tensions in the Middle East. The weakening US dollar is a supporting factor for the rise in gold prices.
The long-term outlook for gold is positive. However, the upward momentum may be delayed as the market is trying to assess the possibility of a US interest rate cut. Lower interest rates reduce the opportunity cost of holding precious metals.
Currently, according to the CME FedWatch tool, traders expect a 47% chance of a Fed rate cut in March. This percentage has decreased from 71% last week, which is significant in the short term. In the future, the upward price momentum may decrease significantly.
Xauusd: trade in the direction of the trendHello dear friends!
On the last day of this week's trading session, gold experienced a gentle recovery with prices fluctuating around $2030, marking a 0.33% increase for the day.
However, it also faced immediate resistance at this level, along with the activity zone of the 34th and 89th EMA. The price may retreat to $2010 if there is end-of-day news supporting the USD.
Conversely, if the price successfully surpasses that resistance level, it will open up strong buying opportunities with a target of $2055.
