The price of gold is currently fluctuating between 2,874 and 2,844 USD, indicating a consolidation phase. This suggests that the market is testing this zone before making a decisive move.
If the price respects the support and reverses, it is expected to resume the upward trajectory, breaking through the resistance zone and aiming for a new high around 2,910 USD or beyond. The ascending structure and overall trend suggest bullish momentum, provided there are no strong bearish catalysts in the market.
This movement aligns with previous patterns where price tends to test support before a continuation toward higher levels. The overall bias remains bullish unless a break below the critical support zones invalidates the setup.
Upcoming U.S. economic data could have a significant impact on gold prices. The release of Average Hourly Earnings and Nonfarm Payrolls will offer insights into wage growth and labor market strength, with expectations of 0.3% and 169K jobs added, respectively. A weaker-than-expected payrolls figure could signal a slowdown, potentially boosting gold as a safe-haven asset. Additionally, the Unemployment Rate and the Fed's Monetary Policy Report may influence expectations around future interest rates, further impacting market sentiment and gold's price movement.
