Kinesis Gold Analysis
Kinesis Gold Analysis 04.08.2021
The gold price remains traded in a tiny trading range of a few dollars, being unable to find a clear direction. The recent attempts to break up the resistance levels of $1,820 and 1,835 failed to find consistency, while gold returned within the lateral trading range between $1,790 and $1,820.
In the last few hours the price is yet again trying to test the first resistance placed at $1,820, confirming the improving momentum for bullion.
Technically, in the last few days we have not seen big changes. Bulls seem to be close to taking control, but so far everytime that gold is trying to surpass key resistances, sellers are becoming active again.
The Federal Reserve and the gold price
This uncertainty is definitely related to the “wait and see” mode shown by the Federal Reserve. The way forward seems to be signaled, with tapering coming in a few months, while for the first interesting hike we will have to wait a lot longer. But the hesitations about the timing of the next movements of the Federal Reserve are reflected in the markets and in bullion prices as well.
ADP labour data (today) and non-farm payrolls (on Friday) are now the first two key elements to monitor as they can in some way influence the Fed in the timing of the next decisions.
The greenback could benefit from data above expectations, as if they can meet that the Fed would be forced to act relatively soon. Vice versa, figures below forecast could allow the Fomc to continue with the ‘wait and see’ model of the last few months, in order to enable the US economy to further improve.
Kinesis Silver Analysis 04.08.2021
Gold price is relatively steady just above $1,800, while the situation does not seem to be different on silver. Indeed, also the grey metal is showing little volatility, remaining flat at $25,60/25,70.
Also the technical picture for silver seems like it's slowly improving, as the price has already recovered over 4% from the bottom reached last week. Anyway, only a solid recovery above the resistance zone of $26 and 26,5 will be seen as a signal of strength, opening space for further gains.
