#黄金 📌Evening Data Warning and Trading Response Strategy on December 5
On December 5 at 21:30, the United States will release the December New York Fed Manufacturing Index and the Future 6-Month Expectations Index. Although this data is not a core indicator, it can reflect the health of the U.S. manufacturing sector and corporate confidence, which may disturb short-term sentiment for the U.S. dollar and gold, while crude oil may also show slight correlation due to fluctuations in the dollar and demand expectations.
From the perspective of impact logic, if the data significantly exceeds the previous value of 18.7 and the forecast value of 10, the dollar may strengthen and suppress gold; conversely, if it is significantly lower than expected, a weaker dollar would be favorable for gold. However, the impact of this data is more short-term and cannot change the medium to long-term trends of gold and crude oil.
In trading, it is essential to follow core principles: first, do not blindly follow the data; focus on the price fluctuations and volume support in the 15-30 minutes after the announcement, using actual trends as the basis for trading; second, adhere to the trend structure; the upward trend of gold remains solid this year, while crude oil is under pressure due to oversupply, so trade lightly during the data period and set reasonable stop losses; third, remember "small data, watch the fluctuations; big trends, watch the structure"; if the fluctuations do not break through key support/resistance, there is no need to adjust the core trading strategy.
