In early Asian trading, spot gold fluctuated in a narrow range and is currently trading around $2,915.60 per ounce. Gold prices have fluctuated at high levels for three consecutive trading days, but they still rose 1.85% on a weekly basis, helped by safe-haven inflows and the U.S. employment report showing that job growth in February was lower than expected, suggesting that the Federal Reserve is expected to cut interest rates this year. In addition, the volatile tariff policy of U.S. President Trump has also increased uncertainty.
From a technical perspective, gold is currently maintaining a high-level oscillation in the weekly trend. The strength and duration of the weekly retracement are not large. The short-term moving average continues to diverge upward. Gold continues to maintain a stronger trend in the large-scale cycle trend. The daily line is currently maintaining a oscillation, and the short-term moving average is basically in a state of adhesion and flatness. The price is temporarily compressed between 2890-2930.
