- Gold Price reverses the previous day’s U-turn from two-week high, eyes the first weekly gain in four.
Gold Price (XAU/USD) remains on the front foot as markets brace for early signals of the US employment, inflation and activity conditions amid the risk-off mood. It’s worth noting, however, that the US Dollar’s struggle to justify the sour sentiment, maybe due to Wednesday’s softer US data, seems to underpin the Gold Price upside, enabling it to challenge the three-week downturn.
That said, fears of economic slowdown join the major central banks’ push for higher rates, despite softer data, to spoil the risk appetite and fuel the XAU/USD of late, due to the market’s traditional haven status. However, fears about China’s economic recovery and heavy outflow of funds from Beijing to neighboring countries prod the Gold buyers. On the same line could be the recently escalated US-China trade war, as well as geopolitical woes surrounding Russia, Ukraine and Iran.
While portraying the mood, the US stock futures drop for the third consecutive day and the Asian equities are down too. More importantly, the US 10-year and two-year Treasury bond yields jumped to a fresh three-month high before retreating in the last hour.
Looking ahead, today’s US ISM Services PMI and ADP Employment Change for June, as well as China headlines and recession woes, will be crucial for the Gold Price directions.

Our Technical Confluence Indicator shows that the Gold Price edges higher within a $20.00 trading range, between $1,916 and $1,936, as markets brace for the top-tier US data.
That said, a convergence of the Fibonacci 23.6% on one-month joins the previous daily low to highlight the short-term key support around $1,916.
Alternatively, the previous daily and weekly high, as well as the middle band of the Bollinger on the daily chart, highlights the $1,936 as the short-term key upside hurdle for the XAU/USD.
That said, Fibonacci 61.8% on one-day and 38.2% on one-month joins Pivot Point one-day R1 to signal the $1,928-29 as nearby upside hurdle.
Meanwhile, 5-DMA and Fibonacci 61.8% on one-week marks the $1,918 as the nearby support for the Gold sellers to watch during the metal’s fresh fall.
It should be noted that a convergence of the Fibonacci 38.2% on one-week and Pivot Point one-day S1 acts as the final defense of the Gold buyers near $1,908 while Pivot Point one-week R1 pin-points $1,940 as an extra filter towards the north.
