Summary
Weekend review. Gold lost $38 on the week, closing at $2,137. The FOMC hawkish surprise and dollar strength drove the selloff. The 100-day MA at $2,125 held as support. The weekly chart shows a long lower wick at $2,125, suggesting buyers are present at this level.
Trading Notes
The long lower wick on the weekly chart at $2,125 is a positive signal for bulls.
Real yields at 2.16% are the headwind. Gold needs yields to drop to resume the uptrend.
Central bank gold reserves data next week will update the physical demand picture.
Seasonally, gold tends to rally in late March / early April.
Prop Firm Warnings
Weekend review: if gold caused losses this week, review your position sizing. One GC contract at $100/point may be too large for many prop accounts.
Consider trading micro gold (MGC at $10/point) for better risk control.
Suggested Strategy
Preparation day. The $2,125-$2,155 range is the decision zone. Plan longs at $2,125 with stops at $2,110 if support holds. Plan shorts at $2,155 with stops at $2,170 if resistance holds.
