2H ANALYSIS Short Term Day Tarading
AUD/NZD’s retreat from the upper edge of the Ichimoku cloud on the daily charts and the 200-day moving average, slightly below the February high of 1.1085 confirms that the path of least resistance remains sideways down. Any break below immediate support at the early-April low of 1.0585 could open the door initially toward the end-2022 low of 1.0470. Subsequent support is at the 2021 low of 1.0275.

Gold Price Analysis: Testing Support Levels Amidst Consolidation and Breakout Attempts
Technical analysis reveals a retracement in gold, testing key support zones and indicating a healthy consolidation phase before an expected continuation of the uptrend.
Gold, FX Empire
Gold Forecast Video for 19.06.23 by Bruce Powers
Gold rises to a three-day high of 1,986 on Friday before pulling back. It attempted to breakout above the top boundary trendline of a small symmetrical triangle consolidation pattern but is now on track to close below it and within the consolidation range.
Attempting to Break Up yet Remains in Consolidation Range
So far, Thursday’s test of the 100-Day EMA with a day’s low of 1,925 has held up but further signs of strength are needed. Gold briefly dropped below the 100-Day line earlier in the session on Thursday but managed to close strong, back above it and near the high of the day. The 100-Day EMA is now at 1,940.
Further Signs of Strength are Needed
Further signs of strength are needed to indicate whether yesterday’s low completes the retracement or further tests will occur. This week’s candlestick pattern is set to close as a bullish doji hammer. Next week an upside breakout signal will occur on a move above the high at 1,971, and the breakout is confirmed on a daily close above that high. Following a move above that high the next weekly resistance levels are 1,973, 1,983, and 1,985. A subsequent daily close above each price level will confirm strength, otherwise some resistance might be seen again around those levels.
If Lows Tested Again
If lower prices occur before a continuation higher the two potential support zones are around the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement at 1,912, followed by the 200-Day EMA at 1,894. The 200-Day EMA was tested as support with a double bottom in the first quarter of this year price reversed higher from there.
Uptrend Intact
The current retracement in gold is a test of support around previous high swing high of 1,960 from early-February. So far, the retracement is normal and healthy for the uptrend. Consolidation has been occurring at the 50% retracement area as well as the 100-Day EMA. Notice that there is a greater distance between the 100-Day EMA and 200-Day than what was seen in February. It reflects an improving trend. Once this retracement is complete, all signs are that gold should continue higher.
Gold held above $1,950 an ounce on Friday after gaining 0.7% in the previous session, benefiting mainly from the dollar’s weakness as the Federal Reserve paused its tightening campaign at a time other major central banks are still raising interest rates. Still, the metal remains close to three-month lows as the Fed hinted at two more quarter-point rate increases this year, while the European Central Bank delivered another 25 basis point rate hike on Thursday and signaled further tightening. The Bank of England is also set to raise rates again at its June policy meeting, a month marked by surprise rate increases from the Reserve Bank of Australia and the Bank of Canada. Meanwhile, the People’s Bank of China lowered key short-term interest rates this week for the first time in ten months, while the Bank of Japan maintained its ultra-easy monetary policy on Friday.

Comment:
The AUD/USD and NZD/USD found support this morning, with the pairings in recovery mode after Friday’s pullback.
There were no economic indicators this morning to shift investor sentiment.
However, monetary policy divergence remains in favor of the dollar following Fed Chair Powell’s two days of testimony.
It is a quiet start to the week for the AUD/USD and NZD/USD. There are no economic indicators from Australia or New Zealand to move the dial.
While investors will try to claw back losses from last week, the theme remains the same. Market angst over the economic outlook for China and a hawkish Fed monetary policy outlook remain headwinds for the Aussie and the Kiwi.
Looking forward to the US session, there are no US economic indicators to influence. The lack of economic indicators will leave the pairs in the hands of Fed chatter. Hawkish chatter would pressure the pairings through the afternoon ahead of influential US stats this week.
This morning, bets on a July Fed interest rate hike remained elevated despite manufacturing sector woes. According to the CME FedWatch Tool, the probability of a 25-basis point July Fed rate hike stood at 71.9% versus 74.4% one week ago.
Significantly, the chances of the Fed lifting rates to 5.75% in September stood at 10.1%, up from 8.9% one week earlier. This could change materially with the Core PCE Price Index numbers out on Friday.

trade is open
After a spectacular rebound, AUD/NZD could be due for a short breather as it nears a tough ceiling at the February high of 1.1085. But two important developments on the higher timeframe charts indicate the rally this month could have some legs. Firstly, the rise in 2022 above the 2020 high of 1.1040 is a sign that the multi-month downward pressure is fading. Secondly, on monthly charts, the cross has managed to find support on the resistance-turned-support on the 89-month moving average. Any break above 1.1085 is needed for the medium-term outlook to turn constructive.
