Gold - Bullish trend has resumed

Aktualisiert
In the recent past we suggested that the bullish breakout above 1835 USD resistance level would take place. We also noted that it would be followed by resumption of the uptrend. The bullish breakout occured and gold broke above 1850 USD and 1877.14 USD (important resistance levels). Currently, gold trades slightly below 1900 USD price tag which remains our short-term price target. We remain bullish on gold and we expect the bullish trend to continue. Indeed, we expect gold to hit a new all time high value in the current bullish cycle. Our view is supported by bullish technical indicators on daily, weekly and monthly time frames. Additionally, our view is supported by fundamental factors such as high inflation and low interest rates in the United States. We expect the FED to raise interest rates by 25 basis points next month; and we view it as a substantial threat to the global economy. Because of that we would like to set the medium-term price target for XAUUSD to 1925 USD (this price target will change to short-term once 1900 USD is taken out).

Snapshot
Illustration above shows the weekly chart of XAUUSD. The rectangle pattern spreads between 1750.740 USD and 1834.195 USD. The picture also depicts volume below the candle chart. Extreme increase in volume coincides with the bullish breakout above 1835 USD resistance level. Such a high volume was unseen since June 2013.

Technical analysis - daily time frame
RSI is due to perform crossover above 70 points which is very bullish. We expect this phenomenon to be accompanied by further rise in the price of gold. MACD and Stochastic are also bullish. In addition to that, DM+ and DM- show bullish conditions in the market. ADX continues to increase which suggests the bullish trend is gaining strength. Overall, the daily time frame is very bullish.
