Looking at the technical picture of XPTUSD on our daily chart, after reversing higher in mid-November, the commodity started forming higher lows. That said, it is struggling to build up higher highs, at the moment. However, that might change, if the price overshoots its key resistance area, roughly between the 944 and 952 levels. Until then, we will take a cautiously bullish stance.
A break above the aforementioned resistance area would confirm a forthcoming higher high, potentially clearing the path towards higher hurdles, as more buyers might see this as a good opportunity to step in. We will then target the 989 and the 995 levels, which mark the highest points of August and July respectively.
Alternatively, a break below a short-term tentative upside support line, drawn from the lowest point of November, could result in a further price drop, as it might spook some bulls from the field. Our next possible target could be the 890 zone, which is the current lowest point of December.
