Gold Price Prediction: XAU/USD stabilizes solidly above $1,750 as DXY retreats in front of Jackson Hole

During the Asian trading session, the gold price (XAU/USD) reached a fresh four-day high of $1,756.77. Prior to the Jackson Hole Economic Symposium, the US dollar index (DXY) is experiencing a self-off, which is favorable for the precious metal. The DXY has showed a gloomy initial trading session and has fallen to approach Tuesday's low of 108.36.

The foreign exchange (FX) market is anticipated to continue volatile as investors receive contradictory comments from analysts regarding Jerome Powell's Jackson Hole speech. Undoubtedly, the data indicate that price pressures are close to peak, and the loss in private sector activity causes the Fed to decrease the rate at which it is increasing interest rates.

However, the inflation rate is above 8%, and the Fed's onerous task of raising interest rates will continue for some time.

In addition, investors will focus on the Core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) data for the second quarter, which is anticipated to remain unchanged at 4.4%.

On an hourly scale, gold prices are seeking to break above the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement at $1,758.40 (set from Monday's low of $1,727.87 to August 10's high of $1,807.93). At $1,756.20, the precious gold has pierced the 200-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA). In addition, the 50-day exponential moving average (EMA) at $1,748.46 is rising, adding to the upward filters. In addition, the Relative Strength Index (14) has moved into the bullish zone of 60.00-80.00, indicating further gain.
