In turn, a further advance in bullion may push the RSI into overbought territory, with a move above 70 in the oscillator likely to be accompanied by higher gold prices like the price action from earlier this month.

XAU/USD Price Chart – Daily

Chart Prepared by David Song, Senior Strategist; XAU/USD on TradingView

The price of gold pushes above the February high ($2956) as it stages a three-day rally, with a break/close above $3000 (161.8% Fibonacci extension) opening up $3050 (100% Fibonacci extension).
Next area of interest comes in around $3160 (161.8% Fibonacci extension), but lack of momentum to break/close above $3000 (161.8% Fibonacci extension) may lead to a pullback in the price of gold.
Need a move below $2940 (78.6% Fibonacci extension) for bullion to threaten the bullish price series, with a move below the weekly low ($2880) raising the scope for a test of the monthly low ($2858).
