Fundamental
OverviewGold broke above another
key resistance yesterday extending the gains above the 4,200 level. There’s
nothing fundamental driving the price action as a short squeeze looks like the
most reasonable culprit. We had soft weekly ADP data
on Tuesday but if that was the reason, we would have seen a stronger reaction
already on Tuesday not the day after. The reopening of the US
government will bring back the key US data like the NFP and CPI, and those will
be key risk events for gold. Strong US data, especially
on the labour market side, should keep weighing on gold as it would keep the
market speculating on rate cuts pause. Conversely, weak data is likely to
support the precious metal as it would give the Fed more reasons to keep cutting
rates.In the bigger picture, gold
should remain in an uptrend as real yields will likely continue to fall amid
the Fed’s dovish reaction function. But in the short term, a further hawkish
repricing in interest rate expectations should keep weighing on the market. Gold
Technical Analysis – Daily TimeframeOn the daily chart, we can
see that gold broke above the most recent swing high around the 4,150 level and
extended the gains above the 4,200 level as the buyers increased the bullish
bets into a new all-time high. There’s not much here for the sellers as they should
either short from the all-time highs or wait for the price to fall back below
the 4,150 level to pile in for new lows.Gold Technical Analysis
– 4 hour TimeframeOn the 4 hour chart, we can
see that we have a strong support zone now around the 4,150 level where we have
also the upward trendline for confluence. If we were to get a pullback, we can
expect the buyers to lean on the support with a defined risk below it to keep
pushing into a new all-time high. The sellers, on the other hand, will want to
see the price breaking lower to pile in for a drop into the 4,000 handle next. Gold Technical Analysis
– 1 hour TimeframeOn the 1 hour chart, there’s
not much else we can add here as the buyers will likely lean on the trendline
to keep pushing into new highs, while the sellers will look for a break lower
to target new lows. The red lines define the average daily range for today. Video

đź’ˇ DMK Insight
Gold’s recent surge past 4,200 is more about technicals than fundamentals, and here’s why that matters: The breakout above this key resistance level suggests a potential short squeeze, which can create a self-reinforcing cycle as traders rush to cover positions. With no strong economic data to justify the move, it’s crucial to watch for volatility as sentiment shifts. If gold can hold above 4,200, it may attract more buyers, but a failure to sustain this level could lead to a sharp pullback. Traders should keep an eye on the daily chart for signs of exhaustion or further momentum. Additionally, the lack of fundamental backing raises questions about the sustainability of this rally. If the market turns its focus back to economic indicators, particularly upcoming employment data, we could see a reversal. For those trading correlated assets like silver or mining stocks, this movement in gold could lead to similar price action. Watch for any signs of divergence in these markets, as they might offer clues about the broader sentiment in precious metals.
đź“® Takeaway
Monitor gold’s ability to hold above 4,200; a failure could trigger a significant pullback, especially if economic data shifts sentiment.
