In the realm of precious metals, gold presents an intriguing technical picture as it begins the week with slight bearish undercurrents. Trading at $2,047, the metal is down by a marginal 0.06%, indicating a pause in bullish momentum yet holding firmly above the $2,000 psychological mark. The monthly chart time frame provides a broader perspective on gold's consolidation phase within a symmetrical triangle pattern, hinting at an impending volatility breakout.

Gold's pivot point stands at $2,021, serving as the immediate fulcrum for price swings. The metal faces successive resistance levels at $2,041, closely aligned with the 50-day EMA, followed by $2,070, and a stronger barrier at $2,091. Support levels are equally established, with the nearest at $1,992, then $1,973, and $1,952, which could offer buying opportunities on dips.

The RSI maintains a reading of 56, suggesting a neutral to slightly bullish sentiment. The MACD indicator is poised at 2.985, slightly above its signal line at 2.683, subtly indicating the potential for upward price action as the market digests and reacts to macroeconomic factors.

The symmetrical triangle pattern observed on the chart is typically indicative of a market in equilibrium, with the asset's path of least resistance becoming clearer upon a decisive breakout. The convergence of the pattern near key moving averages adds to the potential for a significant move.

Concluding, the overall trend for gold maintains a neutral stance with bullish undertones, as technical

indicators and chart patterns suggest a balance between supply and demand. Given the metal's positioning just above the 50-day EMA and the MACD's slight bullish bias, the short-term forecast anticipates a testing of resistance levels, particularly the immediate target at $2,070. Investors may consider a cautious entry with a buy limit order at $2,045, targeting profits at $2,070, and placing a stop loss at $2,030 to manage risks.
