GOLD - ENTERS COREECTION PHASESymbol - XAUUSD
Gold is currently undergoing a corrective phase following approximately six weeks of aggressive upward movement. Price action is forming a consolidation range while continuing to pressure the support zone.
The recent record breaking rally became overheated, prompting profit-taking and long liquidation. Additionally, a gradual shift in market sentiment and macroeconomic backdrop is contributing to capital outflows. However, ongoing US–China trade negotiations, the US government shutdown, and heightened geopolitical uncertainty, including the cancellation of Trump’s meeting with President Putin, continue to pose economic risks that could provide underlying support for the precious metal.
Overall, the current pullback appears to be a healthy corrective pause within the broader structure. The 4000 level remains a critical support area. A sustained recovery above 4110 would indicate that buyers are interested, though further momentum largely depends on developments surrounding global trade policies.
Resistance levels: 4100, 4110, 4163
Support levels: 4058, 4000
A decisive breakdown of the lower boundary of the trading range could trigger a deeper corrective wave. The 4000 level is the primary focus, as strong volatility may occur around this zone. Given the current market conditions - with declines matching the previous intensity of the rally, patience is warranted until momentum stabilizes, enabling more informed technical decisions.

GOLD - BULLISH OUTLOOK WITH SHORT TERM PULLBACKSymbol - XAUUSD
Gold is currently testing the liquidity zone near the 3350 level, exhibiting signs of a potential false breakout above resistance within the prevailing upward trend. A short-term correction may occur before the continuation of the broader bullish movement.
The fundamental backdrop in the market remains complex and somewhat contradictory. Presently, attention is centered on geopolitical developments, particularly the heightened tensions between Russia and Ukraine following the recent weekend escalation. Market participants are closely monitoring diplomatic negotiations taking place in Turkiye. Additionally, the ongoing uncertainty surrounding international tariff policies continues to exert pressure on sentiment.
Since the session's open, gold has demonstrated strong upward momentum, approaching a key liquidity & resistance zone. A false breakout at resistance appears to be forming, which could prompt a corrective pullback toward a key area of interest. Simultaneously, the US dollar is testing a support level, potentially signaling a local correction before resuming its directional movement. This interplay may influence gold prices, which retain an overall bullish outlook.
Resistance levels: 3350, 3365, 3409
Support levels: 3303, 3264
The price has broken out from a consolidation phase, having tested resistance and triggered liquidity above the 3350 mark. Given the current positioning, a retracement toward support levels is plausible before the uptrend resumes.
