Gold prices are currently testing the upper bound of the symmetrical triangle, providing resistance around the critical psychological level of $3,350.
The 20-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) is holding near $3,295, just below the $3,300 psychological level.
A 2% price increase in today’s session so far has allowed prices to adopt a bullish tone, reflected by an uptick in the Relative Strength Index (RSI), which has risen to 57.
For the next significant move, a clear break of trendline resistance could see prices retest the May high near $3,431, potentially opening the door for a retest of the April 22 all-time high of $3,500.
If prices fail to remain upbeat, a move below $3,300 could see Gold prices move back toward the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement level of the January-April move, near $3,291, and toward the 38.6% Fibonacci level of that same move at $3,161.

Gold price is bullishly biased as buyers lifted the XAU/USD spot price above $3,370, eyeing a clear break of the $3,400 level. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates that buyers are gaining momentum.Note
From a technical perspective, the overnight breakout through the $3,324-3,326 hurdle and a subsequent strength beyond the $3,355 area was seen as a key trigger for the XAU/USD bulls. Moreover, oscillators on daily/hourly charts are holding comfortably in positive territory and suggest that the path of least resistance for the Gold price is to the upside. Hence, any subsequent slide below the $3,355 area could be seen as a buying opportunity and remain limited near the $3,326-3,324 resistance-turned-support. Some follow-through selling, however, could make the commodity vulnerable to weakening further below the $3,300 mark and testing the $3,286-3,285 horizontal support.Note
On the flip side, bulls might now wait for a move beyond the $3,400 round figure before positioning for a move toward the next relevant resistance near the $3,430-3,432 area. A sustained strength beyond the latter should allow the Gold price to retest the all-time peak touched in April and make a fresh attempt to conquer the $3,500 psychological mark.
