XAUUSD Potential Forecast | PRE-NFP | 9th March 2023Welcome back guys.
In today's analysis, I will be talking about GOLD and the future where price can be headed towards.
GOLD has fell a whopping 485 pips since the start of the week.
Fundamental backdrop
1. GOLD's strong bearish pressure was credited to Fed Powell's speech that "Fed is prepared to speed up rate rises if warranted by data releases".
2. Since then, not just has GOLD fell close to 500 pips , a few US data releases has coincided nicely with Powell's speech.
3. ADP Non-Farm Employment Change came out at 242000 jobs compared to a forecasted 197000 and 119000 previous.
4. JOLTS Job Openings came out at 10.82m compared to a forecasted 10.58m, beating expectations.
5. All eyes will be on NFP releasing tomorrow.
6. Given the recent strong USD fundamental news release, there is reason to believe that the NFP print will come out stronger than expected , which will highlight the resilience of the US economy once again.
Technical context
1. Price reacted off a key supply zone at 1856 odds and since fell close to 500 pips.
2. Key level of resistance at 1830 odds is an area I will be looking at for short opportunities.
3. Another great confluence to have is for current price to break the low at 1804.82 first before retracing up.
4. This would serve as a break of structure.
5. Target #1 has been marked out at 1766 and if NFP comes out to be strong again, we can see added bullish pressure onto USD and bearish continuations onto GOLD.
Risk management
1. However, if NFP print comes out poor, we can see the whole bullish pressure on USD being overtaken by the bears as the market has not priced in a poor NFP print and the market sentiments surrounding the USD will shift.
This will be the pre NFP chart analysis on GOLD.
Trade safe everyone.
Market has been extremely data driven since the past year or so.
Risk safely.
Let me know in the comments if you guys would want to see a post NFP forecast.

XAUUSD Potential Forecast | 7th March 2023Fundamental Backdrop
1. NFP this week will solidify the bias for GOLD.
2. There have been alot of bullish sentiments in the market surrounding GOLD.
Technical Confluences
1. Price has followed our previous forecast and have broken the H4 resistance (now support) at 1846.
2. Price have retraced and looks good to continue heading up to tap into the next H4 resistance at 1862.
3. Price is hovering well above the ichimoku cloud, signifying strong bullish intent in the market.
4. All eyes will be on NFP this Friday to dictate the future direction on GOLD.
Idea

Gold Outlook 7th March 2023Overnight, Gold retraced from the price area of 1858.50 to retest the 1846.80 key support level.
Although the price broke below the upward trendline, it would still be too early to consider the possibilities of a deeper retracement to the downside, since the support level held prices up.
As the current price action develops to indicate a potential rejection of the support level, look for a couple more conditions to develop before expecting further more significant upside on Gold:
- further weakness in the DXY (especially if it breaks below 104)
- high impulsive move on the EURUSD (beyond the key resistance level of 1.07)
XAUUSD Potential Forecast | 6th March 2023Fundamental Backdrop
1. NFP this Friday is highly anticipated.
2. If NFP data release prints a solid data, this will further show the resilience in the US economy.
3. If NFP data release prints a negative data, this shows that January's NFP read was an anomaly and GOLD will be slated to continue moving up.
Technical Confluences
1. Price is currently facing strong bullish momentum.
2. Higher highs and higher lows are being formed.
3. Price could potentially tap into the H4 support level at 1843.6 before continuing its bullish trajectory.
Idea
Price can potentially head up further, long trades will only be executed from the H4 support level at 1843.6.

Gold Outlook 6th March 2023Gold has been trading higher since the end of February and the start of March, with the price climbing from the 1804 price area up to the current level of 1854.
This upward move was predominantly due to the weakness (wide consolidation) of the DXY and also due to the market anticipation for further interest rate hikes to come from the US.
Further interest rate hikes could create an unavoidable scenario of a global recession, hence the upward move in Gold prices.
As the price consolidates, a brief retracement to the downside could test the upward trendline and the support level of 1847. Beyond that support level, the next key support level is at the 1830 price level.
With Fed Chair Powell set to testify on Tuesday and Wednesday, volatility in Gold is likely to be significant.
I'd prefer to look for a continuation of the uptrend. Looking for the price to break above the 1860 price level and climb toward the next resistance level of 1870.
Gold Price Analysis for Next WeekThe weekly chart for XAUUSD has formed a bullish engulfing candlestick pattern, indicating that the overall trend for gold in the upcoming days, or at least for this week, is bullish. We can also see these signals on the daily chart. Thus, we have identified the general trend for gold.
To determine and analyze its movement during this week, we move to lower time frames (from 8 hours to 1 hour), where we find that the price is moving in an upward channel.
It has reached the upper edge of the channel, which is also located in a supply zone and resistance level. We expect the price to correct towards at least 1846 before resuming its upward movement. It may correct further towards the level of 1830, and this scenario is not unlikely, especially since major economic institutions and banks prefer to enter at the lowest possible price to achieve maximum benefit. The price may then rise again, targeting the level of 1865 or even 1870.
It is strongly not recommended to trade against the trend unless with extreme caution.

Gold Outlook 2nd March 2023Overnight, Gold saw significantly choppy price action as the price broke above the resistance level of 1834 to trade up to the 1846 price area.
However, as the DXY recovered in strength, Gold has retraced to retest the resistance and turned support level again.
At this level, look towards the DXY for further hints regarding the next directional bias of Gold.
If the DXY continues to strengthen, Gold could trade lower down to the next support level at 1819.75, which aligns with the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level.
