Fed Rate Cut Expectations in Uncertainty

XAUUSD - Gold Technical Analysis

Ons Gold, which spent last week gaining value and renewing its historical peak, renewed its peak with $ 2589 on Monday. While stepping into the FOMC week on the US side, pricing movements on the Ons Gold side are waiting for interest rate cuts. Expectations for a 50 basis point interest rate cut seem to have increased in the market. On the other hand, in terms of gold, the Houthis' attack on Israel also affects pricing.      Today, there is some profit realisation before the FOMC in the morning hours. Technically speaking, the precious metal, which was able to maintain the permanence above $ 2500, which we mentioned earlier, closed last week at 2577. If the upward movements in Ons Gold continue, $ 2600 and $ 2625 can be monitored as resistance levels. In retreats, 2575 and 2550 can be followed as support levels.

Resistances: 2600 / 2625 / 2650
Supports: 2550 / 2525 / 2500
 

XAGUSD Technical Analysis

Ons Silver, which completed last week with a value gain, started the FOMC week with a buying trend. In the precious metal, which continues to rise in line with the FED's 50 basis point interest rate cut expectations, the $ 30.00 level we mentioned in the past weeks seems to have broken. Ons Silver, which tested above the $ 31.00 level yesterday but could not provide permanence, shows its strong stance in the morning hours today. The first resistance for the precious metal can be monitored as 31.00. If this level is exceeded, 31.50 and 31.75 can be followed as resistance levels. In possible retreats, $ 30.40 and $ 30.20 can be targeted as support levels.  

Resistances: 31.00 / 31.50 / 31.75
Supports: 30.40 / 30.20 / 29.90
