#202446 - priceactiontds - weekly update - gold futures
Good Evening and I hope you are well.
tl;dr
gold futures: Neutral. This selling is bonkers tbh. It’s so unbelievably rare that markets have such a strong rally and do not respect the trend line at all at such important prices like 2700 and 2600. A bounce is overdue but man, being bullish on Gold has not paid for more than 2 weeks. 2570 is a bad spot to trade. We can easily test down to 2500 before we see a bigger bounce. Can’t be anything but neutral.
Quote from last week:
comment: Market took 48 days to gain the 10% we now lost in 14. This selling is climactic and thus unsustainable. We will soon see a bigger bounce, if not a complete reversal to 2800 again. On the daily chart it looks nasty but on the weekly chart tis but a scratch. Bears closed all but one open bull gap and technically just retested the breakout price for the previous bull leg. This selling is strong enough to seriously doubt much higher prices than 2800. What I do expect is some bounce and more sideways movement between 2600-2800 before we could test lower prices (2300-2400) next year. For now it’s too early to go long, since market has not found a credible bottom yet but since market has not traded much below the weekly 20ema for a year. Swing longs with stop 2480ish are very reasonable.
current market cycle: Bull trend on the brink of being over, either bulls turn hard and go above 2600 or 2400 awaits. It’s possible that we have already transitioned into a trading range and the ath 2801 will be the top of it.
key levels: 2500 - 2800
bull case: Right at the weekly 20ema, which has been bought for over a year. Also retested the July high, which was previous resistance for 5 months until the market finally broke strongly above it. And also trading at the lower bull trend line which started in February. Those are more than enough perfect reasons to buy this dip and I do expect bulls to try at least retesting 2620 early next week and likely the current bear trend line around 2650. The 4h 20ema has been resistance since the selling began and once bulls conquer it again, we could see acceleration upwards.
Invalidation is below 2500.
bear case: Bears know the selling is climactic and a proper bounce is overdue. Can they get 2500 before we get 2650 is the biggest question imo and as always, I don’t have a crystal ball. I will see if 2560 continues to be support on Monday and if we can break above 2580, which was been big resistance on Friday. Bears want to stay below 2600 and the longer they can, the less aggressive the bulls will be. 4h 20ema was resistance for the whole move down and until claimed, it continues to be.
Invalidation is above 2630.
outlook last week:
→ Last Sunday we traded 2694 and now we are at 2570. Bad outlook. Bears were much stronger than expected.
short term: Neutral until bulls claim 2630 again. 2540 just has to hold or if we spike down to 2500 we would have to see huge buying or this will flush down more. Bears are in full control until market trades above the 4h ema again.
medium-long term - Update from 2024-11-17: Tough call for the rest of the year. If I had to guess I’d say that we rally to 2800 again before year end, just so we can sell off beginning of 2024 but it’s pure guesswork as of now.
current swing trade: None
chart update: Highlighted possible bear trend lines and deleted closed bull gap.

Quote from last week:
comment:Bear surprise because they just melted through 2700 and the bull trend line on Wednesday. Bulls retested the bull trend line and got rejected. Bears were also strong enough to keep the market below the daily 20ema and as long as that is the case, bears are in control for now. 2600 is my lower target for the bears and sideways 2600-2720 is the most likely path forward imo.

outlook last week:
short term:Neutral around 2700. If we stay below 2720, I can see a third leg down to retest 2650 or even go down to 2600/2620. Above 2730 I favor the bulls to go higher again.
