Gold prices moved sideways despite a selloff in riskier assets, as stocks headed south on fears of continued COVID-19 spread. The dollar moved higher as risk aversion took hold. Treasury yields took a break from their recent climb, declining as riskier assets dropped. A weaker than expected September New Home Sales report weighed on yields, allowing gold prices to remain buoyed. Gold implied volatility which measures how much options traders believe the price will move remains elevated at 21% well off the highs seen in March near 55, but well off the average in 2019 which was closer to 13%.

(Kitco News) – The gold market is in need of a new catalyst as prices continue to consolidate around $1,900 an ounce. With the U.S. election in the home stretch, many investors are hoping a fiscal stimulus package would be the spark to ignite a new rally.

In a telephone interview with Kitco News Friday, Christopher Vecchio, senior currency strategist at IG Group, said that if investors are looking for more stimulus aid then they should be paying close attention to the Senate election race because this is what will drive new government money into the economy.

"If Biden wins, but Republicans maintain hold of the Senate, then it will be difficult to pass new stimulus measures," he said. "The Senate […]

(Kitco News) With the U.S. election just one week away, volatility is rocking the financial markets, except for the gold sector, in which investors remain very cautious ahead of the big event.

There are four main scenarios investors are preparing for come election day — a Democratic sweep, a Trump win, a split Congress, or a contested election.

All of the above are likely to trigger higher gold prices in the long-term, but one might set off an "explosive" rally while others are likely to lead to a "slow grind higher," according to Pepperstone head of research Chris Weston.

"Longer-term, all roads lead to higher gold prices," Weston told Kitco News on Friday. Blue wave The most explosive scenario for gold would […]

Our mission to help you navigate the new normal is fueled by subscribers. To enjoy unlimited access to our journalism, subscribe today . A team of analysts at J.P. Morgan’s Global Markets Strategy group are touting Bitcoin’s emergence as an alternative to gold among Millennials, suggesting a “doubling or tripling” in the price of the cryptocurrency if current trends continue. The prediction, which came in a research note published on Friday, is remarkable given the bank’s one-time skepticism towards Bitcoin, which included CEO Jamie Dimon calling it a “fraud” in 2017 and saying he would fire anyone trading it for being “stupid.”

J.P. Morgan’s recent bullish stance is driven in part by PayPal’s recent decision to offer Bitcoin to its customers, and Square’s recent decision to add $50 million of the cryptocurrency to its balance sheet. Another major factor for its position, though, is the demographic trend in which younger […]

While traders look for reasons to buy gold and silver , there is no reason to step in here. The precious metals remain in downtrends, with a higher probability of breaking to the downside until proven otherwise.

What I find interesting is marketing campaigns continue to tell us how high the metals are going. However, we know for sure that eventually, gold, silver and platinum will reverse and trend higher. Trying to guess when without price action and proof that becomes a fool’s game of hope.

Traders must learn that trading is never based on hope or false promises, but price action and trend. Add to that, when those who sell promises and hope are playing on the emotions of traders. Hope is a losing proposition when it comes to trading; price and trend will guide you.

(Kitco News) Investor demand is keeping gold from sliding below $1,900 an ounce, but weak physical demand out of Asia is keeping a lid on the precious metal’s gains, according to Commerzbank. "Gold is continuing to lack support from physical gold demand in Asia. Swiss trade data had revealed last week that gold demand in India and China was still rock bottom in September. This is likely to be confirmed by the World Gold Council this week when it publishes the demand trends for the third quarter on Thursday. This will probably prove to be the weakest quarter this year. Gold is still finding support from investment demand, however, which is presumably preventing the price from sliding," writes […]

(Kitco News) Gold is likely to trade around the $1,900 level until the U.S. election or a stimulus agreement, according to MKS PAMP Group. "Gold prices continue to fluctuate as investors weighed the better than expected economic data against the stalled U.S. stimulus talks. The metal continues to be centered around $1,900 for the time being, with a general lack of direction and momentum," MKS writes. Investors should be looking at technicals to figure out gold’s next price move, MKS adds. "Over the past few weeks, we have seen a number of attempts at the $1,920-30 region, however it always ends up falling back off. That said support between $1,875-95 has been robust, the metal happily floating in […]

Gold futures are posting a choppy, two-sided trade on Monday. The market opened sharply lower but then turned slightly higher for the session as traders reassessed the probability of a stimulus deal getting agreed upon by the November 3 presidential election. Given the strength in the U.S. Dollar Index, it appears that there won’t be a fiscal stimulus deal before voters go to the polls. However, new worries over the economic impact of the pandemic are providing some support.

At 15:18 GMT, December Comex gold futures are trading $1906.00, up $0.80 or +0.04%.

Traders are also monitoring the polls ahead of the election. Although Democratic candidate Joe Biden is predicted to win, the numbers may be contested by President Trump. However, if Biden wins then investors expect to see even more stimulus measures in 2021. This should be bullish for gold.

Gold managed to attract some dip-buying on Monday and refreshed daily tops in the last hour.

The technical set-up still favours bearish traders and supports prospects for a further decline.

Attempted move up might confront stiff resistance and remain capped near the $1918-19 zone.

Gold reversed an early dip to the $1891 region, or seven-day lows and refreshed daily tops during the mid-European session, albeit lacked any strong follow-through.The goodish intraday rebound back above the $1900 mark stalled near 200-hour SMA. The mentioned barrier also coincides with a one-month-old ascending trend-line support breakpoint, which should now act as a key pivotal point for intraday traders.Meanwhile, technical indicators on the 1-hourly chart have again started moving into the positive territory and support prospects for a further move up. However, oscillators on 4-hourly/daily charts maintained their bearish bias and favour bears.Hence, any subsequent positive move beyond the $1905-06 […]

Gold has made its way back above the $1,900 level, attempting to recover. Earlier, it dropped as Democrats and Republicans blamed each other for "moving the goal posts" on fiscal stimulus talks. The precious metal continues having a robust correlation with speculation about a multi-trillion relief package from Washington.

Election uncertainty is also weighing on markets, but having a more muted impact on XAU/USD.

How is gold positioned on the charts?

As the graphic below shows, it is the most robust level.Looking up, the next target is $ 1,923 , which is a juncture of lines including the Pivot Point one-day Resistance 2, the 50-day Simple Moving Average, and the PP one-week R1.Some support awaits at $ 1,891 , which is the confluence of […]
