Gold Weekly Report: Non-Farm Payrolls Trigger Rebound, Can the $Gold / U.S. DollarFOREXCOM:XAUUSDElina-XauGold Weekly Report: Non-Farm Payrolls Trigger Rebound, Can the $4200 Mark Be Broken? A Sneak Peek at Next Week's Trend! 📈 Previous Review: Bulls' Desperate Counterattack, First Positive Week in Five Weeks Expected! This week, the gold market experienced a stark contrast! 💥 Following the unexpectedly weak US June non-farm payroll data, the dollar fell sharply, and gold bulls staged a desperate counterattack, with prices rising strongly for three consecutive trading days. The weekly chart is poised for its first positive close in nearly five weeks! 🎉 However, despite the strong rebound, it remained firmly suppressed by the key psychological level of $4200. Coupled with the liquidity crunch caused by the US Independence Day holiday, the market is currently in a dilemma. The divergence between bulls and bears is intensifying; is this the calm before the storm? 🔍 Fundamentals: Three Core Logics Determine the Direction! ⚠️ Negative Factors (High Interest Rates): The Fed's weakening of forward guidance has solidified market confidence that high interest rates will persist for longer. Holding gold, a non-interest-bearing asset, is costly. If subsequent inflation data exceeds expectations, the shadow of interest rate hikes will once again loom over the gold market. 💔 Meanwhile, geopolitical safe-haven demand is cooling, and investor attention is returning to macroeconomic data. 🛡️ Support Remains (Central Bank Gold Purchases as a Base): The global central bank's "de-dollarization" process remains unchanged, and physical gold purchase demand remains the strongest backing for gold. This round of gains is tentatively defined as an "oversold rebound," and a trend reversal requires further confirmation. ⚠️ Beware of Unusual Movements (Liquidity Trap): The US market was closed on Friday, resulting in extremely poor market liquidity! This means that even small amounts of capital can trigger large fluctuations, and without US capital participation, the bulls will lack sustained momentum to break through the strong resistance at 4200. 🛠️ Technical Analysis: Moving averages are in a bullish alignment, but key resistance has not been broken! Daily Chart: Gold prices have stabilized above short-term moving averages, indicating a bullish structure. ✅ As long as the lower moving average support is not broken, the rebound trend remains intact. 4-Hour Chart: Stepped upward movement, with higher lows, and a MACD golden cross with increasing volume. The current sideways movement at high levels is a consolidation phase; after digesting selling pressure, there's still potential for further upward movement. 🚀 Hourly Chart: A technical pullback is possible, but the downside is limited. 📌 Key Levels (Save This): Strength/Weakness Dividing Line: 4150 (Intraday top/bottom conversion point, strong support) Short-Term Defense Level: 4130 (Starting low) Mid-Term Lifeline: 4100 (If broken, the upward structure ends! ❌) Upside Ceiling: 4220-4250 (Strong resistance zone) 💡 Personal View (Cautiously Optimistic): In the short term, the technicals are bullish, but the 4200-4250 range presents significant resistance. Without the support of US market funds, a direct breakout is extremely difficult. 🧐 I prefer to buy on dips and wait for the direction to be chosen after US market funds return next week. If the 4150 support level holds, continue to expect a rebound; otherwise, be wary of a short-term double-top reversal risk. 📊 Trading Strategy for Next Monday (July 6th) 🚀 Long Position Strategy (Main Strategy): Entry Reference: Enter in batches around 4140-4150 on pullbacks Stop Loss Setting: Below 4120 Target Outlook: 4180-4220, a break above could see 4250 🐻 Short Position Strategy (Defensive Strategy): Entry Reference: Enter in batches when encountering resistance at 4220-4230 on rebounds Stop Loss Setting: Above 4250 Target Outlook: 4180-4160, a break above could see 4150 ⚠️ Risk Warning: This strategy is time-sensitive. Please adjust flexibly based on market conditions, always use stop-loss orders, and control your position size! 💬 Conclusion and Interaction Market movements always unfold amidst hesitation and end in frenzy. The current consolidation is simply a build-up for the next directional move. 🚦 If you found this article helpful, please don't hesitate to like it! 👍 + Share 👀 + Retweet 🔄!
