XAUUSD (GOLD) 4 HOUR: Retracement?

Bounce from a 4235 low has cooled the downside but to negate the risk and shift it the other way, 4367 would need to be taken out.

So, for now call it a retracement but only a break of the 4235 low would set off fresh stops.

Both back on the defensive and so far holding supports (4253 and 74863) but for how long?  XAUUSD currently closest and thus more exposed. Break would put 4200 on the radar or make 4250 pivotal.

Market treading water ahead of Warsh
Market is pricing 92-95% odds of .25 pnt hike while some 30% of by bbrg surveyed economists are behind a “hold”.

Kevin is, possibly, on the doorsill of making FED history
by choosing to get killed either by Pres DT or the Bond types.

I am biased. I think Kevin will hike.

The next potential “feel the earth move” event for the dollar is warsh’s press conf as players will be looking for prospect odds of additional and by how much tightening in coming months.

BTCUSD DAILY: 75K now pivotal

As moted yesterday, key support was set at 75482 with fallback support at 75000, both broken today although the latter only briefly, giving some hope to the bull side.

This leaves 75K as the pivotal level with a huge void below it.

On the upside, back above 77270 would be needed to break current momentum.
