Gold retreat to test major trend support

Expert market comment made by senior analyst Alex Kuptsikevich of the FxPro Analyst Team: Gold retreat to test major trend support
FxPro | vor 375 Tagen

Gold lost over 3% in value on the day the presidential election results were tallied. Cumulatively, from its peak in late October to its most recent low, the losses exceed 5%. So far, it doesn't look like a tragedy. Gold is just blowing off steam after more than 50% gains from the lows of last October. We attribute the price decline to the fact that a lot of capital parked in gold got involved in the game after the pre-election uncertainty.

Technically, there is a test of an important support line at the 50-day moving average of $2,640. A failure below it will signal the start of a deeper correction to the $2,400 area. A sharp return to growth will allow us to talk about the imminent renewal of historical highs. The latter is a realistic but alternative scenario. It seems to us that now it is more likely that gold will leave the top role for a while.

Dollar Strengthens as Global Rate Cut Bets Fade | 17th November 2025

The US Dollar strengthened as fading global rate-cut expectations boosted demand for safety and yield. Risk currencies like NZD, GBP, and EUR fell, while USD pairs firmed on resilient US data and cautious central bank outlooks. Mixed signals from China and weak UK/EU data kept sentiment soft, keeping USD in the driver’s seat.

Markets await September NFP after Fed hawks spook markets

Dollar edges up as delayed NFP and other US data set to start rolling in. Gold battered by waning Fed rate cut expectations. Jump in UK and Japanese yields also causes angst. But some relief for equities and cryptos from easing US tariffs.
