XAU/USD short-term forecast
In the case of a continuation of the price going up, various levels could provide resistance. First of all, this week's high level zone at 1,796.00/1,797.00 might stop a surge. Above the week's high, note the 1,800.00 mark and the 1,810.00/1,815.00 zone.
However, a decline of the price could look for support in the 200-hour SMA at 1,790.00, the 100-hour SMA near 1,785.00 and the 50-hour SMA at 1,780.00.
