Chart Analysis (45-Minute Timeframe):1. Breakout Confirmation:
The chart shows a bullish breakout from a rising wedge or channel structure, marked with two red trend lines.
Price has closed above the Ichimoku cloud, confirming bullish momentum.
2. Key Resistance Levels:
First resistance: $3,324.89 (being tested currently).
Major target/resistance zone: $3,368.18 (highlighted by the upper red line and arrow).
This zone aligns with a previous strong supply area visible on the left of the chart.
3. Support Levels:

$3,266.45 (bottom of the recent move and key invalidation zone).
4. Volume Profile:
Increased bullish volume is supporting the breakout.
No significant bearish volume spikes yet, indicating momentum is still in favor of buyers.
5. Ichimoku Cloud Insight:
Bullish signals:
Price is above the cloud.
Lagging span (Chikou) is above price.
Cloud ahead is green, indicating potential continued bullish trend.
6. Expected Move:
If price holds above $3,310, we could see a continuation toward the target zone at $3,368.
However, failure to hold above $3,310–$3,305 could lead to a pullback toward the base of the channel or cloud support.
Summary:
Gold is in a bullish breakout phase. A sustained move above $3,324 and holding support at $3,310 increases the likelihood of a move toward the $3,368 resistance zone. Watch volume and lower trend support for any signs of a reversal or failed breakout.
