The United States Federal Reserve announced its Federal Funds Rate. Markets expected the Fed to keep the base interest rate unchanged at 5.50%. The Fed has done exactly that. However, the US Dollar declined on the announcement, as the market participants must have seen this as a relief from possible rate hike. Namely, inflation has shown to be persistent in the US and a rate hike was a possibility. After the event, the Chairman of the Federal Reserve Jerome Powell revealed at the follow up press conference that not one but three rate cuts are possible in 2024. These news caused a drop of the Dollar that continued overnight. The Dollar index reached a slow as 102.90, where it found support.

On gold charts it resulted in a surge as high as 2,222.60. However, after the event, the price declined and revealed a support zone at 2,200.00.

A potential resumption of the surge might encounter resistance in the 2,222.60 level.

Meanwhile, a decline has to decline below the 2,200.00 mark, before approaching the 50, 100 and 200-hour simple moving averages.
