#以太坊行情解读 Why does gold still have a chance after the Bank of Japan's rate hike?



$XAU $BTC $ETH

Market fluctuations are always normal. Those who can truly make money are often those who can stay put. Every pullback is a preparation for the next wave of the market, and every persistence is accumulating winning chips.

This week, gold has experienced four days of sharp rises and falls—last night was particularly volatile, with a surge to 4375 at one point, finally closing at 4330, and testing the support at 4307. The overall trend is a repeated testing of the market, with no clear direction visible.

Today, the Bank of Japan's monetary policy meeting confirmed a 25 basis point rate hike. The market had already digested this reassurance, so there was no surprise. Recalling the last rate hike in August last year, which caused an 8% plunge, this time is clearly much more moderate—it's not that rate hikes are gentle, but that large funds had already fully priced in the expectations, avoiding panic selling.

In the short term, gold indeed needs some adjustment, mainly due to the release of emotional factors. But this doesn't mean the bullish logic is broken— the overall upward oscillation framework remains. The key issue is the critical resistance zone at 4350-4380. Several attempts this week have failed to break through, indicating significant selling pressure here. Breaking this level in the short term will be quite challenging.

The technical outlook is simple:

Look for support around 4310-4300. If it holds steady, consider moving within the 4325-4337 range. Further, the focus is on whether it can truly break through 4350.

(For technical reference only, please invest cautiously.)

Only those who can stay put can make money. This statement is really valid; it just depends on whether one can withstand the pullback mentality.

Only those who can sit still are the winners. This saying is spot on; I'm just not the type who can sit still haha.

You have to be able to sit still to make money. There's nothing wrong with that statement, but I just can't do it, haha.

You have to be able to sit still to make money. That's so true, I’m the kind who just can’t sit still haha.

The Bank of Japan's move this time isn’t really a surprise; big funds have already fully understood it, and that’s truly terrifying.

4350 can’t be broken, let’s see if it drops to 4310 later. Anyway, the gold bullish framework is still in place, so let’s wait and see.

You can only make money if you can hold on. This statement is so true.

At least gold isn't as disastrous as in August this time, and once expectations are digested, it's less likely to crash.

Being able to stay calm is truly a skill; most people fail because of impatience.

Once again, after the interest rate hike, there’s not much fluctuation; frankly, it’s all been priced in advance.

Having seen this routine many times, it’s always about managing expectations before taking action.
