The USD stabilised somewhat on Friday yet the market more or less tended to shrug off Fed Chairman Powell’s efforts to convince that rates are to remain high for a longer period. The market is currently pricing in five rate cuts from the Fed in 2024, starting from March, according to Fed Fund Futures, while some analysts are speculating about the possibility of six rate cuts by the US central bank. We expect that should the market’s anticipations intensify we may see an adverse effect on USD, while equities and gold’s price could benefit, as US bond yields may start falling. It’s characteristic how gold’s price skyrocketed during today’s Asian session, reaching new record highs.
XAU/USD spiked to levels not seen before, reaching the 2136 (R3) resistance barrier, before correcting lower and dropped below the 2078 (R1) resistance line. We tend to maintain a bullish outlook for the precious metal’s price as long as the upward trendline, incepted since the 13. of November, remains intact and given that the RSI indicator is above the reading of 70 implying a strong bullish sentiment on behalf of the market. Yet as the RSI indicator has surpassed the reading of 70, it may be signaling that gold’s price is in overbought territory and ripe for a correction lower. Should the bulls maintain control over the precious metal’s price, we may see it breaking the 2078 (R1) resistance line and aim for the 2104 (R2) nest. Should the bears take over, we may see gold’s price retreating breaking the prementioned upward trendline, in a first signal of interruption of the upward movement, breaking the 2048 (S1) support line and aim for the 2009 (S2) base.
Across the world we note that RBA is widely expected to remain on hold at 4.35% tomorrow and a possible dovish tone in RBA Governor Bullock’s accompanying statement may weigh on the Aussie and vice versa.
AUD/USD on Friday rose breaking the 0.6620 (S1) resistance line, now turned to support. We tend to maintain a bullish outlook for the pair as long as the upward trendline incepted since the 13. of November remains intact. Yet we note that the RSI indicator is nearing the reading of 50, implying that the market’s bullishness is easing and such a scenario may allow the pair to stabilise. Should the pair find extensive buying orders along its path we may see the pair aiming if not breaking the 0.6725 (R1) line. Should a selling interest be expressed by the market, we may see the pair breaking the prementioned upward trendline, signaling an ending of the upward movement, breaking the 0.6620 (S1) support line and aiming for the 0.6515 (S2) level.
