Gold Price Technical Analysis
On the hourly chart of XAU/USD at FXOpen, the price formed support near the $2,275 zone, remained in a bullish zone, and started a strong increase above $2,300.
It broke a key descending channel with resistance at $2,315. The bulls even pushed the price above the $2,345 level and the 50-hour simple moving average. Finally, it traded as high as $2,358. XAU/USD is now consolidating gains near the $2,355 zone, and the RSI is above 70.
Initial support on the downside is near the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2,307 swing low to the $2,358 high at $2,345.
The first major support is near the $2,335 zone. It is close to the 50% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $2,307 swing low to the $2,358 high. If there is a downside break below the $2,335 support, the price might decline further.
In the stated case, the price might drop toward $2,320 and the 50-hour simple moving average.
Immediate resistance is near the $2,360 level. The next major resistance is near the $2,372 level. An upside break above the $2,372 resistance could send the gold price toward $2,385. Any more gains may perhaps set the pace for an increase toward the $2,400 level.
