GOLD → The market is warming and bullish potential is forming FOREXCOM:XAUUSD strengthens and tests the local high but fails to reach the key resistance at 2050. A strong consolidation above the 2030 level and subsequent momentum is forming.
On D1 we see the potential that the market is aiming for. On the background of weakening TVC:DXY , on the gold market bulls form a strong support area below 2030 after which within the framework of realization of the accumulated potential the market strengthens, forming a bullish impulse.
For us at the moment the area of 2034 and 0.382 fibo plays an important role. As the pre-breakout consolidation is formed in relation to the resistance, and after the false breakout of 2040 the price does not fall, but breaks the resistance, it seems that with a positive fundamental background the market may continue its growth.
But before the growth the price may finally test the support. As part of the realization, the price may reach the area of 2050 or even 2060. Closing of today's daily session will determine for us the medium-term potential for the next week.
Resistance levels: 2047.5, 2050. 2062
Support levels: 2038, 2030, 2025
It seems that the market is getting ready to test the resistance. A pullback within the range may follow. Price return to resistance will prepare the market for further growth.
Regards R. Linda!

China sounds the need for stimulus A few weeks ago, we discussed the reversal in Chinese indices and the negative implications for American stocks. Yet, this week, the worse-than-expected data in China’s economy sparked talk about the need for additional stimulus measures in order to boost the post-Covid-19 recovery. At the same time, the FOMC unveiled the U.S. central bank might be a step closer to easing restrictive monetary policy. Both easing in the United States and stimulus overseas are likely positive factors for the U.S. stock market. In fact, to our surprise, we have already seen the Dow Jones Industrial Average reach a new all-time high on the eve of the FOMC press conference. With the Nasdaq 100 Index and S&P 500 Index hovering slightly away from their all-time highs, we would not be surprised to see them overcome these levels as well. We will monitor the situation in the foreseeable future and update our thoughts with the emergence of new developments.

GOLD → Waiting for the CPI. Will the situation change much?OANDA:XAUUSD continues to fall despite the expectations of many. The price is testing the 1984 area and updated the low to 1975.89. What can happen today?
The TVC:DXY is in a local trend phase, but at the same time it is consolidating in anticipation of today's CPI and further news this week. The main gaze is directed towards FED interest rate decision, FOMC statement, Initial jobless claims.
Against the backdrop of Friday's NFP we can say that things are still not very stable and the representatives of the US economic system may still consider a tougher outlook. In this case the dollar index will continue its growth and gold will go down.
Technically, the metal is in the red zone, updating lows and testing resistances from below. The chances that the market will change the trend are not so great. Analysts expect bullish CPI, which will strengthen the dollar. Gold may fall further after a shakeout, within which it may test nearby resistances.
Support levels: 1980, 1975, 1965
Resistance levels: 1984, 1890, 1994
I expect a shakeout on the background of the news, after which the decline may continue with a high probability. The potential is on the side of the bears, their strength prevails at the moment.

S&P500 Bullish unless this Support level breaks.The S&P500 index (SPX) is extending the bullish leg of the 16-month Rising Wedge pattern. It doesn't have much room left before it hits the top (Higher Highs trend-line) of the pattern and as long as this stays intact, it targets 4730 as an end of year target. As you can see, throughout this pattern, its shorter Rising Wedge patterns that have driven the price upwards on the bullish legs, just like the current.
The previous broke to the upside and peaked on the 3.0 Fibonacci extension while the first one failed and when it broke the Support (last Higher Low), it declined to the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement level below the 1D MA50.
As a result, if the Support (4535) fails first, short and target 4370 (0.5 Fibonacci). The 1D MACD is about to complete a Bearish into Bullish Cross pattern, which was favors the bullish scenario.

GOLD → Strong bears have come in. price is making new lows NCDEX:GOLD after NFP is updating 2-week low and preparing to decline further as fundamentally, we notice a reversal of market sentiment.
On D1 the TVC:DXY is forming a reversal setup and another retest of the key level. Against the backdrop of positive NFP, the index could strengthen quite strongly within the medium-term outlook.
In the COMEX:GC1! market, there is still a huge market imbalance in favor of buyers, whose number began to increase since the beginning of the conflict in the Middle East.
A final break of the 1994 support and further price decline towards 1984 is expected in the near future. But before that the market may test the local highs (resistance). Moving averages indicate a strong bearish trend.
Resistance levels: 2000, 2004, 2007
Support levels: 1991, 1984, 1965
Fundamentally and technically gold is going down. There is no strong news today, but the market may test the nearest resistance to capture liquidity before falling further.

A few thoughts about employment and consumerToday, we would like to discuss two main things. The unemployment rate for November 2023 came in at 3.7%, which is really a surprise to see against a backdrop of high interest rates. However, some other trends might be worth mentioning. First, the broader unemployment indicator, the U-6 unemployment rate, fell to 7% last month from 7.2% in October 2023. Second, the number of multiple jobholders, with both primary and secondary jobs being full-time, dropped from 447,000 in September 2023 to 363,000 in November 2023. Meanwhile, the number of multiple jobholders, with the primary job being full-time and the secondary job being part-time, has skyrocketed in the same period (in fact, this metric has been growing rapidly since July 2023). On top of that, the continuous jobless claims continue to soar (recently hitting the highest level for the year), and there is an obvious decline across job openings in private, manufacturing, and nonfarm sectors. Furthermore, there are a lot of discrepancies among the employment data (going far beyond what we include in this article) that show full-time and well-paying jobs are getting replaced by part-time jobs and those that pay less.
Now, on the topic of solid spending during the Black Friday holiday. There might be one thing partly responsible for big sales (and even for consumer spending staying strong for so long), which is rarely mentioned in the mass media: financial irresponsibility. We are seeing more and more people taking on debt to pay for their expenses, which is reflected in the official numbers. However, the most concerning to us is the group of young people, especially those in their 20s. From our empirical experience, financial illiteracy among young people seems to be hitting all-time highs, and young people do not seem to care about the implications of failing to meet the debt payments; instead, they want to buy what they want, and they want to buy it now, regardless if they can afford it. In our opinion, this will backfire horribly on those who took on debt in the past few years and are yet to see their debt payments increase dramatically.

GOLD → Strong dollar influences further decline in gold OANDA:XAUUSD , following my expectation, on the background of Friday's NFP falls and reaches the target. The price is testing the level of 2000, but in my opinion, this target will not end this week.
From December 11 to December 15 we are expecting a rather active week, fundamentally. On Friday we got a rather strong NPF for the dollar, which made gold fall from the zone I mentioned. The fundamental potential is not over, it will continue to influence the pricing in the medium term. It is also worth paying attention to the dollar. On the weekly timeframe we see the formation of a pinbar and a bullish candlestick, which overlaps the last two, which is a strong enough sign of further strengthening. Accordingly, gold and the forex market may react accordingly.
Gold is currently testing the support area of the bearish channel. The important zone for us is 2007 - 2009. It is possible to form a retest, an impulse to 2010-2015 , or a false breakdown. Further consolidation of the price below this level will form a bearish potential, which will continue to pressure the price. The market is directed to the mentioned zones of interest and liquidity ( 1990, 1984, 1965, 1955 ) in the medium term.
Fundamentally, the market has stopped paying attention to the nuances in the Middle East or Eastern Europe. Now everyone is waiting for some new information from Powell related to monetary policy, namely interest rates. But, more data on Initial Jobless Claims and NFP may make the Fed chief hesitant.
Also, on the weekly timeframe, I found the " Cup with handle " pattern forming interesting. It is clear that within such a period it is impossible to determine the exact place of the breakout or the point of safe entry into the market, but the tendency to the fact that the extreme phase of the expected pattern is forming is already pleasing. Most likely, in the medium and long term, the price will continue to test the resistance 2070-2100 for a breakout and the formation of a new range, but not in the near future.

GOLD → NFP ahead. Will the sell-off continue? OANDA:XAUUSD continues to form a local bearish channel after updating the high to 2150 and strong sell-offs to the current area. There is still a huge imbalance in the market and the price could go even lower to settle the situation.
NFP could perfectly develop the expected scenario I have been telling you about since the sell-off.
Expect the data at 13:30 GMT. The Initial Jobless Claims report was released yesterday with positive data for the dollar. This could be a hint that NFP will hit the planned 180K , maybe more , instead of the last 150K . More bullish data relative to expected data will shake up the market. The dollar may strengthen, which will have a positive impact on gold.
Gold made a false breakout of 2038 resistance and bearish channel and continues to trade within the downside range. The target support levels are a potential target. But before the news, volatility will be very sluggish. The market is saving the potential for realization.
Support levels: 2027, 2025, 2022, 2007
Resistance levels: 2033, 2035, 2038
News can be unpredictable, try to trade carefully before the news. We are expecting a more positive NFP , a rising dollar and gold falling to the previously mentioned targets, but anything can happen

S&P500: Ascending Triangle trading plan.S&P500 is trading inside an Ascending Triangle pattern with the price over the July 27th Top (R1) and bullish on the 4H technical outlook (RSI = 63.128MACD = 5.390, ADX = 23.122). Until the HH and more importantly the R2 level break, we will be bearish, targeting the S1 (TP = 4,550). Below the S1, the 4H MA200 is the target (TP = 4,480). If the price crosses over the R2 level, be ready for an end of year rally to the January 12th 2022 Top (TP = 4,749.50).

EURUSD → Bullish NFP figures for USD may drop EURFX:EURUSD is declining and testing the local minimum on the background of strengthening of the dollar. The price is retesting MA-200 , which only increases the chances of further decline.
Today, at 13:30 GMT we will meet the NFP data, to which the market reacts quite strongly. In general, analysts expect an improvement for the dollar, as 180K is expected relative to the previous 150K . After the publication of yesterday's Initial Jobless Claims, the reality is closer that the market could see NFP 180K , if not more, as the overall market situation is improving and the fundamentals support this.
EURUSD may react with a fall to the possible strengthening of the dollar, but before the fall the price may test a local high, for example 1.08170. Overall, the chart clearly shows the approximate potential. A false breakdown of resistance of the ascending channel opens the possibility to see a sell-off towards trend support.
Support levels: 1.0760
Resistance levels: 1.0800, 1.08170, channel resistance
In general, bullish news is expected for the US market, which may weaken the euro and the currency pair may fall. But this is news and no one knows in advance what can happen, we only try to see the scenario with a higher chance of realization

GOLD → Market in range awaiting newsOANDA:XAUUSD is strengthening due to a slight correction in the TVC:DXY . The price is testing the local trend resistance area before the publication of Initial Jobless Claims at 13:30 GMT.
The market is in a range as analysts and investors await the Initial Jobless Claims information to roughly understand the situation for tomorrow (Friday) as we approach the NFPs to be released on December 8 at 13:30 GMT.
With the correlation between DXY and XAU, the situation is unstable right now. Going forward, the inverse correlation may change even more as there are targets at lower levels for gold.
From a technical point of view, since we have a local bearish channel built on the background of strong sell-offs, I expect a false break of resistance and further decline to the previously mentioned targets.
Support levels: 2022, 2010, 2007
Resistance levels: 2032, 2035, 2040
Situation may change due to fundamental factor, Unexpected news may change the situation dramatically, but temporarily.

GOLD → The bears are moving towards imbalance OANDA:XAUUSD continues to update lows, testing new zones, but at the same time, as part of the correction, the price confirms the boundaries of the forming descending price channel.
On D1 it is obvious that the decline in gold will continue, as there is still a huge imbalance at the expense of buyers. At the moment we are interested in the support area of 2022, which may be broken after another retest. In this case the decline will continue to 2009 and then to 1984.
The Dollar Index is forming a correction, but even if the decline starts, gold may not react to the dollar and will continue to move towards its targets.
On the chart we see a bearish channel, a bounce from resistance and another retest of support, the sellers are strong at the moment. At the same time the market is waiting for the news at 13:15 ADP Nonfarm EC, don't miss it, but before the news reduce the risks.
Support levels: 2022, 2010, 2007
Resistance levels: 2035
I expect the continuation of the descending channel formation, in this case, the support may be broken soon and the price will head towards the mentioned target

S&P500 Potential Continuation to the upsidesHey Traders, in today's trading session we are monitoring US500 for a buying opportunity around 4540 zone, US500 is trading in an uptrend and currently is in a correction phase in which it is approaching the trend at 4540 support and resistance area.

Overseas weakness is poised to drag down the U.S. marketIn the previous post about the SPX, we have been cautioning against potential reversal in the Chinese indices and subsequent implications for the U.S. stock market. Since then, we have seen Hang Seng Index drop about 5% and Shanghai Composite Index about 2%. While these declines are not yet doom and gloom, the situation is worth watching out for in the upcoming days. We expect the Chinese market’s weak performance combined with worsening economic data (globally) to eventually drag down U.S. indices. Therefore, we will pay utmost attention to the release of S&P Global Composite PMI and S&P Global Services PMI today, and the announcement of unemployment rate on Friday. To conclude our views, we are starting to see the current pricing of the SPX as attractive to start dipping a toe in a tiny short position (accompanied by a stop-loss). We will update a our thoughts on the asset witth the emergence of new developments.

GOLD → The sell-off may continue. News ahead OANDA:XAUUSD sold off 6% from its high. The price has lost more than $130. This is the biggest drop since August 2020. At the moment a correction is forming, after which the fall will continue
On d1, the dollar is strengthening in anticipation of positive news, while the Fed is silent and treading water.
Gold is forming a huge false breakout and a candle with a huge shadow, the potential of this setup is that without the influence of the fundamental component, from a technical point of view, the price can fall to 1900-1800 (do not take this as a target, it is just a nuance)
For the gold market, the liquidity and imbalance zones are below: 2022, 2012, 2007, 1900, 1987, 1984. The probability is quite high that the price will test most of these targets, it is dangerous to buy now, the market is still in a sell-off, which I warned you about earlier.
Reason: fundamental, dollar strength, lack of volumes, global range, engulfment, moving averages cross, huge imbalance.
Support levels: 2030, 2022, 2012
Resistance levels: 2035, 2040
I am waiting for the continuation of the fall after the retest of the resistance area. But! Strong news is published today and the market may be stormy, on the background of panic, the price may test the resistance areas before falling

GOLD → Global Highs Update. What's next?OANDA:XAUUSD , on the back of the residual potential from last week, is forming a rally from the opening session and testing a new global high of 2150, after which we saw the strongest sell-off.
Yesterday we looked at what could happen in gold. But no one expected an update of the highs to 2150. In any case a conglomeration of factors is important for us:
Retest of global range resistance (W1, M1) Area 2069-2070.
Huge sell-off after the retest of 2150. The market sold off all the upside.
Distribution since early November.
No potential, no energy and no volume. Update high was on no volume, on the back of hyped up price (pure market manipulation)
Most likely, after the market calms down after this burst of activity, price will start testing the 2070-2069 area. I still stick to my scenario - false breakdown and further correction.
Key level: 2069.8 - 2070.
Support levels: 2059.65, 2049,6, 2035.3
It is important to wait for the market to calm down. A calm market may show a clearer picture for further prospects. We are waiting for a correction.
Regards R. Linda!
