Traders are not ready for big moves as they prepare for the key event of the week.
Gold is losing some ground today as the U.S. dollar moves higher against a broad basket of currencies. Trading action is calm as gold traders prepare for the upcoming Fed decision, which will be released on Wednesday. It remains to be seen whether traders are ready for big moves ahead of this key event.
Silver is currently trying to settle back above the 20 EMA. Silver remains stuck in a range, and the situation will not change until strong catalysts emerge. In this light, it is hard to expect material moves from silver ahead of the Fed decision.
Platinum is currently trying to settle below the support at $1015. RSI remains in the moderate territory, so there is enough room to gain additional momentum in case the right catalysts emerge. If platinum settles below $1015, it will head towards the psychologically important $1000 level.
