Gold Trend 21/10
Gold prices exceeded our expectations last week. They broke above the previous high of 2685 without any influence from major economic data or news, closing the week at a new high of 2722 before the weekend.
Early last week, gold prices continued to carry the upward momentum from the US inflation data from the previous week, jumping to the resistance at 2670. Although it was not a major market focus, weak US manufacturing data on Tuesday led to a technical breakout of the descending resistance line(1), triggering a round of buying that quickly pushed prices to the previous historical high of 2685.
After the ECB chopped the 0.5% rate and the release of US retail data on Thursday, the gold price cleared the resistance from the previous high of 2685, where the buying momentum carried on until Friday's market close. As the Asian session opened on Monday, funds continued to flow in, so far no clear signs of a reversal yet.
Last week, the gold market shook off the influence of the US rate cut and the recent geopolitical factors, and the overall investment market is gradually being driven by the upcoming US election and its associated uncertainties. With the current market condition, "Trump trade" or not, the gold market, US stocks market, or cryptocurrencies, will be relatively bullish before the election date.
1-hr chart (above) > The upward trend is still accelerating, shifting from last week's trend line (3) to a faster pace at (3.1). With gold prices hitting new highs, there are no previous prices to use as references. In the S-T, watch out for the round number of 2750; and a 1:1 projection from the previous week's high/low range (4), with a target around 2765 (4.1).
Daily Chart > Gold prices broke through the key resistance at 2685 last week (5), reigniting the upward trend. The daily chart has not shown any reversal signals yet, so in the S-T, watch for resistance around 2750 near the upper resistance of the uptrend channel(6).
