๐ฏ KEY LEVELS
๐ด Resistance: $4,685
๐ข Support: $4,595
๐ DAILY BIAS: BULLISH
Gold is trading well above the 100-day and 200-day SMAs, MACD is pushing higher in positive territory, and price reclaimed the critical $4,615-$4,620 Fibonacci confluence on Friday. that level is now structural support. RSI is in overbought territory at 71-72, so bulls need to manage position sizing on chases. Buy pullbacks into $4,620-$4,650 rather than chasing the high.
๐ฅ BREAKOUT / PULLBACK SCENARIOS
- Bullish Case (Preferred): Price holds above $4,620 on any intraday pullback and attacks $4,685 resistance again. A confirmed daily close above $4,685 opens the 78.6% Fib at $4,684-$4,685 cluster and targets the $4,773 horizontal barrier next, then the cycle high zone near $4,891.
- Bearish Invalidation: A hawkish Jackson Hole surprise from Fed Chair Warsh drives a hard rejection back below $4,595. Lose that level on a daily close and the 200-day SMA near $4,517 comes into play fast, with deeper support at the 61.8% Fib retracement around $4,522.
๐ฐ WHAT'S MOVING GOLD
The US Treasury's decision to double its long-term bond buyback program to $4 billion per session lit the debasement trade on fire, and gold gained over 14% in August alone off that move. The DXY surrendered nearly all of its late-July gains from the 101.40 peak and now trades near 98.70, handing gold a clean tailwind. Middle East tensions persist with the US-Iran standoff showing no sign of resolution, keeping safe-haven demand elevated. Aggressive Chinese central bank buying adds another structural bid under the market, keeping dips shallow.
โ ๏ธ HIGH-IMPACT EVENT
Jackson Hole Symposium runs this week with Fed Chair Kevin Warsh scheduled to speak. This is the number one binary risk for gold right now. A hawkish tone. any signal that rate hikes are back on the table. triggers profit-taking fast after a 14% August run. A neutral or dovish message confirms the debasement narrative and puts $4,773 in play before Friday's close.
