[Market Evening] The International Gold Price Outlook Continues to Look Down at US$1,759, and The Terrorist Data "Attacks With the Minutes of the Fed Meeting, and the War Between Long and Short Is Imminent.
The immediate focus will be the minutes from the Fed's July policy meeting ahead of the annual meeting of global central banks in Jackson Hole in late August, which will set the tone for the Fed's September policy meeting. If the Fed becomes more hawkish on the outlook for rate hikes, it will have some negative impact on gold.

As of 17:00 (GMT+8), spot gold fell 0.028% to $1775.02/oz, and spot silver fell 0.562% to $20.000/oz.
Comment: The international gold price rose and fell, not far from the more than one-week low of $1,771.28/oz set overnight. Investors awaited the minutes of the upcoming Fed policy meeting in July for clues on the Fed's future rate hikes. The Fed's hawkish stance is bearish for gold prices. The dollar bull cycle looks very long.
Suggestion: short Spot gold at 1775.40, and the target point is 1764.90.

Comment: The dollar was little changed against a basket of currencies on Tuesday as investors awaited Wednesday's US retail sales data and minutes from the Federal Reserve's July meeting. The dollar rebounded from a six-week low hit last week as investors ramped up bets that the Federal Reserve will continue to raise interest rates aggressively as inflation simmers.
Suggestion: short the EUR/USD at 1.01750, and the target point is 1.00970.
As of 17:00 (GMT+8), WTI fell 0.939% to $85.935/barrel; Brent fell 0.854% to $91.560/barrel.
Comment: Although API crude oil inventories fell slightly, API gasoline inventories fell sharply, and US stocks continued to rise, providing some support for oil prices, lingering concerns about the risk of a global economic recession, coupled with rising expectations that Iran may resume supply, Oil prices are still under pressure as a whole. Before recovering the 10-day moving average of 89.70, oil prices are still biased towards further shock and decline.
Suggestion: short US crude oil at 85.840, and the target point is 83.850.
