TEHRAN (Iran News) – Gold Price Analysis: XAU/USD remains trapped between key DMAs ahead of Fed week. Gold (XAU/USD) resumed its bearish momentum following a brief recovery from multi-month lows sub-$1800 in the last week.
The sellers returned after the metal-faced rejection at the 50-daily moving average (DMA), now at $1875.
On Wednesday, gold fell as much as 1% to near the $1825 region and spent the rest of the week meandering near the latter, with the upside attempts capped by the 21-DMA of $1841.
Gold Price Analysis: XAU/USD’s daily chart clearly shows that the price continues to oscillate in a defined range. Acceptance above the 50-DMA is critical to reviving the recovery momentum from four-month troughs of $1765.
Meanwhile, the 200-DMA support at $1809 is the level to beat for the bears. The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) settled the week at 47.01, keeping the odds for additional downside alive.
However, the Fed’s final monetary policy decision of this year and a likely US fiscal stimulus deal could have a significant impact on the gold price action in the week ahead.
