Intense Data Flow in the US this Week

XAUUSD - Gold Technical Analysis

After the pricing movements experienced last week were left behind, eyes turned to the US inflation report on the gold side in the new week. Despite the increasing interest rate cut rumours in the US, the recession rumours that emerged last week were a halting phase for the precious metal. If inflation comes in line with expectations, the interest rate cut process may accelerate. Ounce Gold can increase its gains. Although it had a volatile course last week and closed the week in the negative pricing zone, Ons, which made a weekly closing at $ 2443, is following a buying course on the first trading day of the new week. If the upward movements in the precious metal continue, 2450 and 2475 can be targeted as resistance levels. In case of possible retracements, 2415 and 2400, an important threshold, can be targeted as support levels.

Resistances: 2450 / 2475 / 2490
Supports: 2415 / 2400 / 2378
