本周美元指数与黄金价格走势呈现鲜明对比。美元指数在市场对全球贸易战担忧情绪显著缓解的推动下，预计将连续第二周录得上涨，收盘时有望 稳定在100整数关口附近，显示出美元在当前市场环境下的相对强势。与之相反，现货黄金市场则因多重利空因素交织而承压。避险情绪的消退、 美元指数的走高以及劳动节假期前交易员的获利清算行为，共同导致黄金价格连续第二周收跌，周五收于3241美元/盎司。 上周五的非农数据并未给市场带来显著意外，黄金价格在日内有所波动，但整体仍维持弱势格局。从技术面分析黄金价格在连续下跌后虽出现一定 程度的修复，但上方压力依然明显。特别是在1小时图上，均线呈现死叉向下的空头排列，表明短期趋势依然偏空。下周3270美元/盎司一线将成为 黄金价格多空争夺的关键点位。若该点位未能被有效突破，黄金价格或将维持震荡格局，多头反转仍需更多积极因素支撑。目前上方阻力在3264- 3270，下方支撑在3208-3200，操作上徐老师建议回调做多为主，反弹高空为辅。 操作策略1：建议反弹3265-3270空，损3275，目标看3240-3225。 操作策略2：建议回调3225-3220多，损3214，目标看3240-3255。 ...
