XAUUSD Technical Analysis

Gold rebounds and continues to rise. Fibonacci retracement levels are in focus, leading to two consecutive days of gains. Although it is trading below the 10-day moving average, uncertainty is increasing, making gold more attractive as a safe-haven asset. The key point in the short term is whether it can break above the 10-day MA.

The 90-day moving average is gradually trending upward, reinforcing the bullish momentum. The RSI rebounded at 50, indicating buying interest on dips. Even if USD experiences temporary buying pressure, the ongoing implementation of tariff policies could drive up import prices and fuel recession concerns, ultimately leading to USD depreciation.

With the increasing demand for safe-haven assets, reaching 3,000 USD appears to be just a matter of time.
