Gold achieves goals 23/5/2024

Gold prices experienced significant losses yesterday, aligning with the downward corrective trend identified in the previous technical report. The price reached the forecasted target of $2375, recording its lowest level at $2366 per ounce.

Examining the 4-hour time frame chart, several key technical indicators suggest the continuation of a downward trend:

  1. Simple Moving Averages (SMA): The SMAs are exerting negative pressure on gold prices from above, indicating a bearish market sentiment.
  2. Momentum Indicator: The 14-day momentum indicator remains below the midline of 50, reinforcing the bearish outlook.

Given these indicators, the possibility of continued corrective decline is high. The next targets are set at:

  • 2349: The immediate support level.
  • 2337: Corresponding to the 23.60% Fibonacci retracement level.

Upside Potential: For the bearish scenario to be invalidated, gold prices need to break above:

  • 2395: A key resistance level.
  • 2400: A critical psychological threshold. Should these levels be surpassed and sustained, gold prices may resume an upward trajectory towards:
  • 2410
  • 2430

Economic Data and Market Volatility: Today’s market may experience high volatility due to the release of significant economic data from major economies, including:

  • France and Germany: Preliminary readings of the Services and Manufacturing PMI indices.
  • United Kingdom: Preliminary reading of the Services and Manufacturing PMI indices.
  • United States: Preliminary reading of the Services and Manufacturing PMI indices.

Geopolitical Risks: High geopolitical tensions continue to pose a significant risk, potentially leading to substantial price fluctuations.
