Gold: another fresh new ATH
Ongoing geopolitical tensions and mixed macro data in the US pushed the prices of gold to the newest all-time highest level in this year. Gold reached the highest level at $2.785 on Wednesday, but reverted a bit back on Friday, amid US Dollar strengthening, at level of $2.735. The US Treasury yields also gained after disappointing Non-farm payrolls data for October, which had an additional impact for the price of gold.
Despite the new ATH, the RSI is showing that the price of gold has moved from the overbought market zone. The indicator moved down till the level of 59 on Friday. This is indication that the market might soon start looking at the oversold market side, however, it will take some time until the clear side is reached. For a few months now there has been no change with moving averages of 50 and 200 days, as they both move as two parallel lines with an uptrend.
The week ahead could be a tricky one. There are US Presidential elections on November 5th, and FOMC rate decision on November 7th. Both events might bring higher volatility on markets. Any trades should be taken with precaution. As per current charts, there is potential for a further correction of the price of gold, where the $2,7K level might be tested. A correction below this level might trigger a $2.680 level. At this moment a further move to the upside could be triggered in case of further geopolitical escalation in the Middle East. Still, as previously noted, a higher volatility might easily be triggered in the week ahead.
