XAUUSD - General structure and basic dynamics

65
Brief technical analysis
1. General structure and main dynamics
Gold is trading in an ascending triangle, a bullish pattern indicating potential for further gains. The price has consolidated above the 50-day moving average, and the RSI is reinforcing the bullish sentiment.

The MACD and RSI (≈ 54.7) are signaling growing positive momentum, especially after the rebound from the lower Bollinger band and the formation of EMA-8/EMA-21 crosses.

Citi has raised its forecast to $3,300-3,600 over the next three months, given the weak US economy and the weakening dollar.

Yesterday, gold prices were close to a multi-year high near $3,400. A break of resistance around $3,435 could bring gains to the target of $3,735 (according to the “measured move” pattern).

However, an HSBC analyst warns of weakness in momentum; a pullback after growth is possible, especially with an improving global background and a delayed tightening by the Fed.

2. Key levels
Resistance:
~$3,435 — the top of the ascending triangle
If broken — potential target $3,735
