Gold prices fell on Friday, June 21, 2024 as the US dollar gained ground against most major currencies. According to the analysis:

  • Gold prices showed a slight bearish bias on June 21, 2024 and fell over 1%, marking weekly losses.

  • The drop in gold prices was driven by the US dollar gaining strength against other major currencies.

  • However, the analysis suggests gold prices still have a slight bullish bias and are attempting to resume the expected bullish wave. The analysis forecasts gold prices could target $2,385 as the next resistance level, as long as prices hold above $2,340.10 support.

  • Prior to the price drop, gold and silver prices had climbed more than 1% on June 21, reaching their highest levels in two weeks. This was driven by weaker US economic data that increased the likelihood of Federal Reserve interest rate cuts later this year.

  • Experts believe gold could hold support at $2,328 per troy ounce on a weekly closing basis. Gold is expected to have support at $2,340-2,321 and resistance at $2,374-2,388.

In summary, while gold prices saw a pullback on June 21, 2024, the overall analysis suggests gold still has a bullish bias and could target higher levels in the medium-term, as long as key support levels hold.
