Gold Price: Overriding Risk-On Mood Weighs on XAUUSD Price at $1,700 Level in a Bid to Stay Afloat

XAUUSD Price Analysis – April 29

During the late European session, Gold edged down into the American session and refreshed daily lows as overriding risk-on mood weighs on XAUUSD, but managed to stay just above the round-figure mark of $1,703.00. This emerges amid a significant upturn in crude oil prices, which rather bolstered the optimism of investors and smashed the inherent safe-haven status of the precious metal.

Key Levels
Resistance Levels: $1,780, $1,765, $1,747
Support Levels: $1,690, $1,663, $1,623

XAUUSD Long term Trend: Bullish

Gold has largely kept moving horizontally since the beginning of April. This is trading beyond nearby highs in February-March. But, this looks like a medium to long term uptrend consolidation. Though if the price hits beneath the level of $1,703.00, we may see more pressure to sell.

An upswing may return as soon as the pair soars beyond the resistance level of $1,719.25, preceded by rising to the resistance level of $1,738.87, and if it skyrockets beyond that level, we may predict the pair to hit the resistance level of $1,747.72.

XAUUSD Short term Trend: Bullish

XAUUSD consolidates the progress which began in mid-March as the metal holds beyond the ascending trendline on the four-hour chart. XAUUSD retains a solid bullish momentum as buyers are now searching for a break beyond the level of $1747.00 on a daily exit grounds that may open the doors towards the resistance level of $1,780.

Alternatively, support may appear for the short term near to $1,690 price level, and further below rests the level of $1,663. In the first quarter of this year, freshly issued US GDP came in at 4.8 percent worse than anticipated.
