Technical Analysis: Gold Price Bulls Maintain Upper Hand; $2,024 Horizontal Support Crucial
1. Caution for Bulls Despite Failure to Sustain Above 50-day SMA:
Observation: Inability to establish above 50-day SMA prompts caution among bullish traders.
Implication: Moderate pullback from $2,041-2,042 hurdle suggests a need for vigilance.
2. Oscillators Support Near-Term Gains:
Analysis: Daily chart oscillators gaining positive traction.
Significance: Supports the outlook for additional near-term gains.
3. Key Support at $2,024 Horizontal Level:
Highlight: $2,024 horizontal support holds significance.
Role: Failure to hold may expose 100-day SMA at $2,007 and $2,000 psychological mark.
4. Bearish Scenario if $2,024 Support Breaks:
Scenario: Convincing break below $2,024 may expose further downside.
Targets: 100-day SMA at $2,007, psychological level of $2,000, and $1,984 region.
5. Bullish Confirmation Above $2,041-2,042 Area:
Condition: Bulls await a move beyond Friday's swing high.
Target: Aiming to challenge $2,065 supply zone.
6. Extended Bullish Move Targets $2,100 Mark:
Outlook: Successful breach of $2,041-2,042 may set the stage for further gains.
Objective: Reclaiming $2,100 round figure mark, unexplored since early December 20
Conclusion for Traders: Bulls maintain control, but caution warranted with failure above 50-day SMA.
Oscillators support near-term gains, while $2,024 horizontal support remains crucial. A break below may trigger
bearish momentum, targeting $2,000 and $1,984. Conversely, a bullish confirmation above $2,041-2,042 could
pave the way for an extended move towards the $2,065 supply zone and potentially the $2,100 mark.

China Hits Back at US, Accusing 'False Accusations' - What it Means for Your Investments
Background: The U.S. recently released a report accusing China of not playing fair in world trade. It claimed
China had created 'overcapacity,' basically producing more than needed. Now, China is hitting back, saying the
accusations are false and reflecting the U.S.'s pushy behavior.
What You Need to Know:
1. What's the Big Deal?
The U.S. is upset, thinking China is making too much stuff, which can affect global trade. China
disagrees and thinks the U.S. is just being a bit of a bully.
2. Why Does it Matter to You?
This dispute between two economic giants can have a ripple effect on the world economy. If
tensions rise, it might impact the value of currencies, like the Aussie Dollar (AUD/USD).
3. What China Said:
China's Commerce Ministry said the U.S. is not appreciating all the good things China is doing for
world trade. They feel the U.S. is ignoring their efforts and being a bit mean.
4. The Patrols Near Taiwan:

China is also sending more patrols near Taiwan's islands. It's like saying, "We're watching what
you're doing." This adds more tension to the situation.
5. Impact on AUD/USD:
The Australian Dollar (AUD/USD) is feeling the heat. It's losing value, probably because investors
get nervous when big countries argue. It's like people selling off things when they sense trouble.
What Can You Do?
Imagine you're in a market, and two sellers (U.S. and China) are having a disagreement. It makes everyone else a
bit uneasy. If you're trading, you might want to keep an eye on how currencies like the Aussie Dollar react. It's
like watching the waves before deciding to swim.
Example: Think of it like friends arguing over who gets to play with a toy. The arguing makes everyone
uncomfortable, and you might hesitate to join the game until things calm down.
Key Takeaway: When big countries clash, it's like thunder in the financial world. It might be a good time to be
cautious with your investments until the storm passes.
Remember, in the trading world, it's not just about numbers; it's
also about understanding the stories behind them.

3] WOLFE WAVE PATTERN
Wolfe Wave patterns were first identified by Bill Wolfe and his son, Brian.
According to Wolfe, they occur naturally in all markets. To recognize them, traders must
identify a series of price oscillations that correspond to specific criteria:

The waves must cycle at a consistent time interval.
The third and fourth waves must stay within the channel created by the first and
second waves.
The third and fourth waves must show symmetry with the first and second waves.
In a Wolfe Wave pattern, the fifth wave breaks out of the channel. According to the theory
behind the pattern, a line drawn from the point at the beginning of the first wave and
passing through the beginning of the fourth wave predicts a target price for the end of the
fifth wave. If a trader properly identifies a Wolfe Wave as it forms, the beginning of the fifth
wave represents an opportunity to take a long or short position. The target price predicts
the end of the wave, and therefore the point at which the trader aims to profit off the
position.
