Gold Value Chart – XAU/USD Weekly
Chart ready by Michael Boutros, Technical Strategist; gold on tradingview
notes: In my earlier Gold Weekly Value Outlook I highlighted the reversal assist for March 2020 1631 Noting that XAU/USD fell in an intraday, “deal with potential inflection from 1621- this zone on the finish of the month/quarter earlier than reverting again above 1621.” Gold is down greater than 7% as an advance falter final week at annual downtrend resistance – October’s opening-range is shaping up just under this slope and here is the rapid focus within the days forward for steering.
Weekly Resistance Watches Extending Downward to the 2022 Vary of 1.618% Yearly Excessive / 23.6% Fibonacci Retracement 1706/22 – A breach/weekly closing above this vary is critical to counsel {that a} extra vital low was recorded final month and {that a} main reversal might happen. Such a state of affairs would spotlight the April 2019 highs 1747 and 38.2% retracement / January’s low closes on the week 1788/91– Search for a giant response whenever you get there. Preliminary assist rests with the shut of the week beneath 1660 with a break down / weekly off 1631 Required to mark a resumption of the broader downtrend in the direction of 50% retracement 1560,
