Tests key trendline — recovery or new selling opportunity?

The market enters the first full trading week of June caught between two major macro narratives. On one side, signs of slowing U.S. economic momentum continue supporting safe-haven demand for gold. On the other, traders remain cautious ahead of several key labor market releases that could significantly reshape expectations for Federal Reserve policy. The latest ISM Manufacturing PMI reinforced concerns that parts of the U.S. economy are gradually losing momentum, placing pressure on the USD and helping support gold prices. However, attention has now shifted toward ADP Employment Change, ISM Services PMI, and Friday’s Non-Farm Payrolls report. These releases are expected to become the primary catalysts for both the USD and gold throughout the week. From a broader macro perspective, markets remain balanced between recession concerns and the possibility of higher-for-longer interest rates. Gold continues benefiting whenever economic data disappoints, but a sustainable bullish trend will likely require more evidence that the U.S. economy is slowing faster than expected. Technically, gold remains within a broader bearish structure despite the strong recovery from late-May lows. Price is currently reacting around a key confluence area involving a descending trendline, Fibonacci levels, and important liquidity zones. The recovery has improved short-term sentiment, but sellers continue defending major resistance areas overhead. MAIN SCENARIO The preferred scenario remains a short-term recovery toward the Trendline + Fibo resistance zone before selling pressure returns. If price reacts from this confluence area, gold could resume its bearish movement toward the lower Supply and Demand zones, in line with the prevailing H4 structure. With major labor market data still ahead, the market is likely to remain cautious and trade within technical liquidity zones until a clearer directional catalyst emerges. ALTERNATIVE SCENARIO If upcoming U.S. economic data continues disappointing and the USD extends its weakness, gold could break above the current Trendline + Fibo resistance area. In that case, price may continue recovering toward the upper Demand + Fibo liquidity zone, where significant medium-term liquidity is concentrated. A confirmed H4 close above resistance would be the first indication that buyers are gradually regaining short-term control. SHORT-TERM BIAS Bullish recovery toward resistance. LONG-TERM BIAS Still bearish while price remains below the major descending trendline and key liquidity zones overhead. LucasGrayTrading
