Gold (XAU/USD) Technical Analysis
Gold prices (XAU/USD) retreated during the previous session after failing to sustain trading above the $4,600 mark, sliding to an intraday low of $4,510 — a move that underscores the persistence of selling pressure on the metal.
Technical Outlook – 4-Hour Timeframe:
In the short term, the price is staging a tentative recovery attempt, supported by the Relative Strength Index (RSI) dipping into oversold territory — a condition that could help temper the pace of the decline over the near term.
That said, the simple moving averages continue to maintain a bearish crossover from above, exerting dynamic resistance on the price. This dynamic, combined with the metal’s movement within a descending channel/trendline structure, lends further weight to the bearish scenario.
Trading below the $4,600 threshold — which has now flipped from support into resistance under the principle of role reversal — preserves the bearish bias, provided the $4,500 floor is decisively breached. In such a case, the price could extend its decline toward:
- $4,455 as the initial downside target
On the flip side, should the price successfully defend the $4,500 support and reclaim the $4,600 level, this would likely arrest the downtrend and pave the way for a corrective rebound targeting:
- $4,654 as the initial upside target
- Followed by $4,695 as the subsequent objective
