But what I need to remind everyone is that although the data will be released normally tomorrow, the market is closed. In order to avoid risks, opportunities are also risks. Friends who do not have certain analysis and judgment skills should not gamble with heavy positions at will, and transactions must be done step by step.

If you have a relatively large amount of funds, you can lighten up your position as appropriate according to your own situation. Regarding the trend of gold and technical analysis, I will share it in the post later. Although I just came here, there are also many fans in other places, and I hope to do what I have learned to really help everyone and make different friends.
