Daily Price Outlook

- Pivot Point at $2,597.39: A critical level for determining short-term price momentum.

- 50 EMA at $2,581.13: Offers strong support but sits just below current prices.

- Resistance at $2,618.54: Breakout above this level could trigger bullish acceleration.

Gold (XAU/USD) is trading at $2,583.78, up 0.80% on the day, as it hovers just above key support levels. The metal's immediate pivot point sits at $2,597.39, a critical level that traders will watch closely as it determines near-term direction.

A break above this pivot could signal a move toward immediate resistance at $2,618.54, with additional bullish targets at $2,644.07. On the downside, immediate support lies at $2,580.92, while further declines could expose gold to $2,537.16 and $2,516.86.

The 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $2,581.13 offers a strong short-term support zone, aligning closely with current price action. Gold’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 54, indicating a neutral stance with neither overbought nor oversold conditions. This balanced momentum highlights the potential for volatility, as any breach of key levels could trigger significant price movement.

On the 4-hour chart, the price action is consolidating between the pivot point and $2,580.92, forming a narrow trading range. The broader trend remains cautious, as gold’s upside potential faces resistance from higher Treasury yields and a firm U.S. dollar.

However, if gold successfully breaks above $2,597.39, bullish momentum may accelerate, potentially reaching $2,618.54.

Traders considering a buy-limit order at $2,580 could aim for a take-profit target of $2,616, with a stop-loss set at $2,550 to manage risk. Gold's trajectory remains tethered to macroeconomic factors, with U.S. economic data and Federal Reserve signals likely to provide further clarity on price direction.
