XAUUSD Close to a major bullish break-out!

Gold (XAUUSD) closed on Friday above the 1D MA50 (blue trend-line) for the first time since August 12 that was practically the time that the stock market made its previous High. At the same time, Gold broke and closed above both the former Channel Down and Triangle patterns that we discussed where bullish break-out signals on our past analyses.

Despite the positives, the price remains within the long-term Channel Down pattern in late April. It is however the first time that the 1D MA50 breaks twice within a month during this 2022 downtrend. Also while the price was making a Triple Bottom on the 1615 – 1617 Support Zone, the 1D RSI has been rising on Higher Lows since September 26, a technical sign of a potential bullish reversal.

As a result the chances of the price breaking above the long-term Channel Down and testing the 1D MA100 (green trend-line) which has been untouched since May 09, are the best ever. That would be the major bullish break-out towards the 1D MA200 (orange trend-line). A closing within the Channel Down though, can target the Support again for a new re-test confirmation.
