Gold - Choppy moves continue
Over the recent months, we reiterated that gold was likely to be dragged down by the declining stock market (mainly due to profit-taking/covering losses elsewhere). We also expressed our expectations about gold declining to the 1700 USD region; this move came recently, and XAUUSD made a new low at 1 690.935 USD.
Despite that, we stuck to our long-term bullish stance, which we continue to hold. Indeed, we think the weakness in gold can be exploited by accumulating gold for the long-term position. In our opinion, the inflation rate in the U.S. is currently peaking (and due to move lower in 2023). In addition to that, we think the FED will eventually reverse its monetary course and loosen economic conditions.
Although, we are very cautious as the FED meeting is approaching; furthermore, if the central bank follows through with another rate hike, then it is likely to be negative for gold in the short term. Additionally, if the stock market reverses its rally, it will likely harm XAUUSD.

The price of gold deviated too far from its short-term and medium-term moving averages. Therefore, we are on the lookout for the price retracement toward its 20-day SMA.
Technical analysis - daily time frame
The RSI is bullish. The Stochastic points to the upside, which is bullish; however, it stays in the lower zone. The MACD strives to reverse. DM+ and DM- are bearish. Overall, the daily time frame starts to show bullish signs. It also hints at the possible peak of short-term bearish conditions.

The chart shows simple support and resistance lines derived from peaks and troughs.
Technical analysis - weekly time frame
RSI, MACD, Stochastic, DM+, and DM- are all bearish. The weekly time frame remains bearish.
