So far, based on the performance on the daily chart below, the price of gold (XAU/USD) remains in an upward trajectory, moving towards the psychological resistance level of $2000 per ounce. Nearby, this signifies strong and positive momentum, indicating bullish control over the trend. Simultaneously, technical indicators may approach levels saturated with buying activity if gold prices move towards the resistance levels of $2015 and $2027 respectively. However, if the price of gold falls below the support level of $1970, it poses a threat to the current bullish trend.

Moreover, this includes key announcements such as weekly jobless claims, durable goods orders, and the U.S. consumer confidence reading. Additionally, investor risk appetite will be a factor amid ongoing global geopolitical tensions, particularly in the Middle East.
