[Gold Price Breaks Below 200-Day Moving Average: Not a Sharp Drop, but a "Slow Bleeding" Signal] ⑴ Gold prices remain sluggish. Affected by news of the US-Iran airstrikes, gold prices fell again, currently testing the 200-day moving average at $4393. This level provided precise support in March, and gold prices have not closed below the 200-day moving average since October 2023. ⑵ The problem with gold is that it has failed to function as a safe haven since the outbreak of the Iran war, and it has also failed to attract buying interest during the risk-averse rally that has driven stock markets to record highs. Market sentiment is heavy, and the technical picture is deteriorating. ⑶ The risk of the closing price breaking below the 200-day moving average has increased, but this is not a clean bearish signal. Looking back at the price action since 2010, after closing below the 200-day moving average, gold prices tend to slowly climb in the short term, subsequently lagging behind within a 30-60 day window. ⑷ Therefore, this signal suggests a "slow bleeding" decline rather than a one-time sharp drop. While the closing value of the 200-day moving average is worth noting, it should not be the primary trigger. Broader market sentiment is the dominant force, and with a lack of catalysts to change the narrative direction in the coming weeks, the risks for gold prices remain skewed to the downside.
