Join us as we delve into a comprehensive price action analysis of the XAUUSD market in this video. With the gold price comfortably surpassing the $1,950.00 mark and the USD Index remaining weak, we examine the current market conditions.
Investors are divided on whether the Fed will implement two more rate hikes this year, putting pressure on the USD Index. Encouraging signs of cooling inflation contribute to the hopeful sentiment. While the Fed maintained steady interest rates in its recent meeting, it has left room for potential rate increases later in the year, depending on forthcoming data. However, Morgan Stanley holds a different perspective, projecting no further hikes and expecting the Fed to maintain a rate of 5.1% until a 25 bps cut in March 2024.
Amidst this dilemma, the market mood is cheerful as uncertainty surrounding the interest rate peak subsides after Fed Chair Jerome Powell's presentation of the dot plot. Now, let's discuss our plans for the upcoming week based on price action analysis.
In this video, we conduct a comprehensive examination of the XAUUSD market, assessing both bullish and bearish sentiments, as well as accumulation and distribution patterns. By analyzing past price patterns, market behavior, recurring trends, and crucial support and resistance levels, we gain valuable insights into the potential actions of buyers and sellers in the coming week(s).
It is worth nothing that we identify a significant level at 1,960, which is expected to play a major role in determining the direction of price action this week.
