- Gold is capitalizing on Friday’s bounce from the 200-hour moving average (HMA).
- Dollar weakness is likely pushing the yellow metal higher.
- Friday’s high is the level to beat for the bulls.
Gold is currently reporting a 0.30 percent gain at $1,287, having bounced off the 200-HMA on Friday.
The yellow metal is likely benefitting from the weak tone in the greenback. At press time, the dollar index (DXY), which tracks the value of the greenback against the basket of currencies, is trading at a four-day low of 96.09.
The gains, however, could be capped around the immediate resistance of $1,289 (50-HMA), as the risk assets are cheering CHina’s rate cut and easing US-China trade tensions. At press time, the S&P 500 futures are reporting a 0.6 percent gain.
Further, the yellow metal created a bearish outside-day candle on Friday. As a result, $1,298 (Friday’s high) is the level to beat for the bulls.
