The Trust Layer for Market Analysts

The weekly market analysis began by noting Gold's start to the week around $4533, followed by a significant drop of approximately $250 on the 29th, hitting almost all-time highs before correcting. This move represented the largest single-day red candle in two and a half months since October 21st, attributed to year-end profit booking. The price reached lows around $4274 by December 31st. For the upcoming week, Gold has a support level at $4190 and a resistance at $4555. The trend is currently considered positive, implying a potential movement towards the resistance if the support holds. Silver experienced extreme volatility, opening around $80, reaching a high of $83.40, and a low of $70.50 within a single day. This rapid $15-20 movement in one session, along with a margin increase by COMEX, led to significant liquidations. Silver’s psychological support is at $68, with a closing below this level potentially leading to drops towards $65 or $62. The resistance is at $80. The trend for Silver remains positive, despite the recent 10-15% correction. Crude Oil made lows around $55 and highs around $59. For a positive return, Crude Oil needs a decisive closing above $61. Currently, its support is at $54.50, and the resistance is $61. The trend for Crude Oil is assessed as weak.
