XAUUSD - Modestly up; near-term technicals friendly

Gold prices slightly increased and silver remained stable in a calm summer trading session on Thursday. The US dollar index was slightly lower, crude oil prices were slightly higher, and US Treasury bond yields decreased slightly, all of which were daily positive factors for the precious metals market. Short-term price trends for gold also showed an upward trajectory. In the last session, August gold increased by $2.6 to $1,983.

Asian and European stock markets experienced mixed movements in overnight trading. US stock indices are heading for a mixed open as the New York trading session begins. US stock indices reached new highs for the year on Wednesday, driven by optimistic sentiment among traders and investors. US inflation is trending lower, and the US economy is neither too hot nor too cold.

Comment:

In technical terms, gold futures speculators have a short-term technical advantage as prices are in a new uptrend on the daily chart. Their next price target is to close the August futures contract above a strong resistance level at $2,000. On the other hand, bears' short-term price target is to push the futures contract below a solid technical support level at $1,900. The first resistance levels seen overnight were at $1,989 and then $2,000. The first support levels seen on Wednesday were at $1,973 and then Tuesday's low at $1,958.
