Gold (XAU/USD) is currently trading within a well-defined range, with key support at $2,663 and resistance near $2,698. The pair has shown strong bullish momentum, supported by moving averages crossing upwards and RSI staying above 50, indicating potential further upside.
On the daily chart, we observe a consolidation pattern forming a possible ascending triangle. This setup suggests a breakout could occur above the $2,698 resistance zone, targeting $2,800 as the next significant level. The MACD histogram also shows increasing bullish divergence, adding strength to the upward bias.
However, a rejection at resistance could push XAU/USD back to the $2,665 support zone. If this level fails, further declines toward $2,580 may follow.
