Previous XAU/USD Chart Update
Gold has recently reached a high of 2070, which is the price level back in the summer of 2020. However, a sharp bearish impulse took place immediately from the 2070 level, followed by a bearish flag formation. Recently, price has broken the bearish flag structure and is falling toward a key support level of 1860.
This scenario is very similar with the price action pattern back in 2020 summer. After falling to 1860 level, price consolidated, creating a bullish phase. Currently, we are still missing a bullish phase after the price has reached a new high. Therefore, 1860 level is a key support area to watch for potential buy entries. At this level, we will look for a consolidation/reversal pattern on lower time frame charts.
The first buy target is in the area of 1980. The second target is the previous high at 2070 level.
