Gold Analysis August 12

Fundamental Analysis
Gold (XAU/USD) attracted some dip buying near the $2,424 region on Monday and looked set to extend last week’s decent recovery from the 50-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) support. Investors remain concerned about the possibility of a wider conflict in the Middle East, which is seen as a key driver for the precious metal. In addition, expectations of further rate cuts by the Federal Reserve (Fed) also provided additional support for the non-yielding asset.

However, the intraday rally lacked any bullish sentiment following the generally positive tone around the equity markets, which tended to weigh on the safe-haven bullion. Moreover, a modest appreciation in the US Dollar (USD) continued to limit the upside in XAU/USD. Traders also seem reluctant and prefer to wait on the sidelines ahead of the key US inflation figures - Producer Price Index (PPI) and Consumer Price Index (CPI) on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Technical Analysis
Gold is approaching the resistance point of 2441-2443 and we can set up a SELL signal in this area. GOLD is on an uptrend so we just look at the Scalping signal and look for a nice entry to BUY long term in line with the main trend of the market.

Gold price trims part of overnight gains amid risk-on mood; US inflation data in focus
Gold price pulls back from the vicinity of the monthly peak retested earlier this Tuesday. Bulls opt to lighten their bets amid a positive risk tone and ahead of the US inflation data. Geopolitical risks and bets for a 50-bps rate cut by the Fed should help limit the downside.
