XAUUSD - Global demand for gold remains at a record high
Yesterday, gold quotes recorded the most significant drop since last June, dropping by 90.0 dollars from 1950.0 to Friday’s low at 1860.0, the key driver of which was the growth of the US dollar from 101.500 to 102.900 in the USD Index against the background of a strong report on the US labor market. Investors perceived the movement as a local correction, which will not receive a serious continuation since the fundamental global background does not contribute to the decline in the asset: according to the report for 2022, global demand for gold amounted to 4.741K tons, which is an absolute record since 2011. Most of the positive momentum came from central banks’ purchases, which mostly wished to remain anonymous. According to experts, regulators thus hope to protect themselves from possible sanctions, providing strong support for national economies.

ETHUSD - Murray analysis
The ETHUSD pair has been trading within the upward trend since the beginning of this year, however, growth has slowed down in the last three weeks, and quotes have entered the sideways range of 1687.5 - 1562.50 (Murray levels [7/8]-[6/8]), where they are now.
![](https://i.ibb.co/VLD2P4w/eth.png)
Currently, the price is trying to resume growth from the middle line of the Bollinger Bands (1625) and, if consolidated above the upper limit of the specified range, it will be able to rise to 1750 (Murray level [8/8]) and 1875 (Murray level [+2/8]). In general, the uptrend in the pair is still maintained, which is signaled by the upward reversal of the Bollinger Bands and the stabilization of the MACD histogram in the positive zone. A downward reversal of the Stochastic allows a breakdown of the middle line of the Bollinger bands and a pullback of the price to the area of 1562.5 (Murray level [5/8], the lower line of the Bollinger Bands), however, in this case, an upward reversal is more likely than further development of the downward movement.
Resistance levels: 1687.5, 1750, 1875 | Support levels: 1562.5, 1500, 1375, 1250

Chart of the Day - USDCAD
USDCAD has been trading in a descending triangle pattern since October 2022. The pair failed to break above the resistance zone ranging below the 1.3500 area yesterday and can be seen pulling back today. USDCAD is expected to get more volatile later today as traders will be offered comments from both - Fed Chair Powell (5:40 pm GMT) and BoC Governor Macklem (5:45pm GMT).
Solid jobs data led some to believe that the Fed may switch back to a 50 bp rate hike at its next meeting and Powell’s comments will be key in shaping expectations further. Macklem will deliver a speech titled “How monetary policy works” at CFA Society Quebec. Speech will surely touch on the topic of monetary policy as the title implies. More importantly, Macklem will answer reporters’ questions afterwards at 7:00 pm GMT and it could be a chance for more details on the current policy outlook.
![](https://www.linkpicture.com/q/usdcad_1.png)
USDCAD is trading around 1% below upper limit of the triangle pattern and around 1.2% above the lower limit. While today’s speeches from BoC and Fed heads may not lead to an immediate breakout, they could set the tone for the coming days, which may lead to a breakout. A textbook range of the breakout from the pattern in either direction is 720 pips.

USDCHF Crawls Upwards
The USDCHF pair shows calm positive trades to gradually approach our waited target at 0.9315, to keep the bullish trend scenario valid and active as long as 0.9220 level remains intact.

Note that breaching the targeted level will extend the bullish wave to reach 0.9475 areas on the near term basis, while breaking 0.9220 represents negative factor that will push the price to the main bearish track again.
The expected trading range for today is between 0.9200 support and 0.9360 resistance.

The price reached three-month highs around 0.4290, after which it rolled back to 0.3906 (Murrey level [8/8]). Fixation below it will give the prospect of further decline to 0.3662 (Murrey level [7/8]) and 0.3418 (Murrey level [6/8]). If the quotes consolidate above the resistance zone of 0.4050 – 0.4150 (middle line of Bollinger bands, Fibonacci correction 38.2%, Murrey level [+1/8]), growth may continue to 0.4395 (Murrey level [+2/8]), 0.4565 (Fibonacci retracement 61.8%) and 0.4750.
