Overview:

Since our last analysis, gold has been trading sideways around the price of $1,119.00. According to the daily time frame, we can observe a neutral bar (doji) in a volume below the average. According to the 30M time frame, we can observe a volume spike (selling climax) with a wide range bar at the price of $1,117.00, which is a sign that selling gold looks risky. I placed Fibonacci retracement to find potential resistance levels and got Fibonacci retracement 38.2% at the price of $1,127.00 (successfully held), Fibonacci retracement 50% at the price of $1,141.00, and the Fibonacci retracement 61.8% at the price of $1,157.00. According to Wyckoff analysis, we have strong accumulation and bottoming on gold, so watch only for buying opportunities on the dips (after bearish corrections). Anyway, to confirm further bullish movement, the price needs to break the level of $1,122.70.

Daily Fibonacci pivot points:

Resistance levels

R1: 1,121.38

R2: 1,123.35

R3: 1,127.80

Support levels:

S1: 1,114.30

S2: 1,112.00

S3: 1,108.00

Trading recommendations: Be careful when selling gold at this stage. Watch for buying opportunites. Area around the price of $1,114.00 looks like very strong support and a good buy zone.
