Key Quotes

“The pair, currently, trades higher at 1182.77 levels, supported above 20-DMA located at 1181.44 levels."

“XAU/USD bounced-off lows below 20-DMA around 1181 levels and climbed higher as the US dollar recovery from the previous slump lost momentum and the greenback trades muted across the board."

“The pair is seen struggling around 1183, and is attempting another bounce to break above the daily highs at 1186.81. However, with the daily RSI turned flattish at 46.53 levels, the pair seems to lack clear direction amid a data light day ahead.”

“XAU bulls may takeover beyond a break of daily highs and head higher towards 1200 mark.”

“To the downside, a break below 20-DMA support, losses may accelerate pushing the pair to test the next support at 5-DMA and trend line support at 1171.10 levels.”

“Overall, the pair may consolidate previous gains and remain underpinned so long as the crucial 20-DMA support is breached.”
