Technical analysis by ConanTradingFX about Symbol PAXG: Sell recommendation (10/8/2024)

At the start of Tuesday’s trading session, gold (XAUUSD) is hovering around $2,646, with a modest increase of 0.17% on the day. However, the precious metal lacks strong momentum, as the U.S. jobs report exceeded expectations, dampening hopes of a significant rate cut by the Federal Reserve. This has driven up U.S. Treasury yields and strengthened the USD, putting downward pressure on gold prices.From both a fundamental and technical perspective, a further decline in gold could be expected, especially if it reacts to the trendline or resistance levels. A selling strategy could be considered if sellers capitalize on the price correction influenced by the 34 and 89 EMA indicators.
