Gold Bull Market Returns, But Watch Out for the Trap!
Gold Technical Analysis: Yesterday, gold exhibited a dramatic V-shaped reversal. It dipped to a low of 4065 during the session, then surged to the 4265 level where it faced significant selling pressure and pulled back sharply. After testing the key support at 4025, a surge of buying interest drove a strong rally, resulting in a daily close of 4244 with a solid, full-bodied bullish candle, signaling a concentrated release of bullish momentum.
It is important to note that this week's Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) report is still pending; data stronger than expected could rapidly shift interest rate expectations and exert downward pressure on the current rally, meaning the fundamental outlook remains subject to change. Overall, the short-term trading strategy for gold favors going long on pullbacks and going short on rallies. Key resistance levels to watch are 4300–4330, while key support levels are 4200–4180.
