Market Analysis (December 17, 2024)

Gold bars and rolls of hundred-dollar bills, symbolizing the relationship between gold prices and the strengthening of the dollar in forex trading.

GOLD

Gold prices have held steady and recovered slightly from the previous day’s lows. We anticipate further buying momentum leading up to Thursday’s expected rate cut announcement, which may prompt a stronger dollar and a potential reversal. In this environment, scalping indicators like the MACD and RSI become crucial for trading entry and exit points, helping traders spot the optimal times to capitalize on price fluctuations.

The MACD indicates weakened buying strength, while the RSI suggests overbought conditions, pointing to weak momentum for further upward movement. This increases the likelihood of a continued sell-off. We await additional price action and confirmations to determine the direction, though overall price action has already shifted towards selling. Forex portfolio strategies should consider the potential for a reversal based on these indicators.

SILVER

Silver prices continue to decline with strong bearish momentum. Further selling is expected, supported by the MACD and RSI, both signaling continued downward movement. Traders can use automated trading signals to stay updated on silver’s direction and adjust positions accordingly.

DXY

The dollar shows slight easing ahead of Thursday’s anticipated rate cut. Both the MACD and RSI indicate increased selling momentum and volume. Market expectations for aggressive rate reductions next year have diminished due to inflationary concerns, especially with Donald Trump’s anticipated return to the White House. Scalping trading systems can be used to react quickly to these market changes, capitalizing on the short-term price swings.

Another factor bolstering dollar strength is the expectation of an inflationary environment under Trump’s 2025 economic plans. Earlier this year, markets anticipated substantial rate cuts, evidenced by the unexpected 50-basis-point cut by the Fed in September. Analysts suggest that the December rate cut could be the last for several months to a year if Trump pursues inflationary policies, potentially leading to discussions of rate hikes in the near future. Traders should focus on forex market trends and adjust their strategies accordingly.

GBPUSD

The pound maintains a bearish outlook, but both the MACD and RSI show signs of gaining bullish momentum following yesterday’s trading session. Prices are expected to trend upward ahead of the rate cut announcements. Using signal-based trading strategies, traders can adjust positions in real-time to maximize profits from any price movement.

AUDUSD

The Australian dollar remains consolidated between previously identified key levels. The MACD is showing signs of slowing, with a consolidating pattern, while the RSI lacks clear directional bias. This reflects weakness in both the Aussie dollar and the U.S. dollar. Further movements are awaited for clarity. Traders should use scalping indicators to spot potential breakouts in the near future.

NZDUSD

The Kiwi remains in consolidation with a slight upward push suggested by the MACD and RSI. However, the RSI shows divergence, reflecting hesitation in establishing a clear direction. While the MACD indicates reduced buying strength, recent histograms suggest an increase in momentum. Additional price movements will provide clarity on the next direction. A forex portfolio strategy based on risk tolerance can be developed to manage the uncertainty around this pair.

EURUSD

The euro shows growing potential for continued bullish momentum. The RSI indicates lower levels following a broader price swing, supported by the MACD, which reflects increasing strength for upward movement. However, market reactions to upcoming Fed rate cuts will be closely monitored to confirm this trend. Traders using signal-based trading can stay informed of key shifts in momentum.

USDJPY

The yen is showing increased weakness, with price movements reflecting exaggerated selling levels despite minimal pullbacks. Both the MACD and RSI suggest significant buying momentum and volume. Traders are awaiting the Bank of Japan’s (BOJ) upcoming statements to gauge their policy intentions. Recent dovish remarks, particularly in anticipation of Trump’s administration, have reduced the likelihood of a rate hike in December. Scalping indicators can be used to exploit short-term price movements here.

USDCHF

The franc remains in consolidation slightly below 0.89431. Both the MACD and RSI indicate growing strength for a potential continuation of buying momentum. This makes it a good candidate for traders who are implementing scalping trading systems.

USDCAD

The CAD exhibits increased weakness against the dollar. The MACD is nearing a bullish crossover, while the RSI signals growing momentum for buying. A breakout from the current consolidation could lead to further upward movement. This is where forex market trends should be closely watched for confirmation of an entry point.
