Early in the American session, Gold (XAU/USD) is trading around 1,837.74 above the 21 SMA and below the 200 EMA. According to the 4-hour chart, we can see that gold has a bullish bias. Yesterday in the European session, having reached a low of 1,804, the metal started a rebound, thus accumulating a profit of more than $30.

Gold left a gap at around 1,818 yesterday. If the instrument falls and returns to this zone, it could fill the gap and could be seen as a signal to buy on the technical bounce.

The weakness in the US Dollar Index (USDX) turned lower during the American session yesterday, helping XAU/USD to recover which left a gap. As gold is approaching a strong resistance area that has proven to be a barrier to it on previous occasions, it could be seen as a signal to sell around 1,843.

XAU/USD has found good support at 2/8 Murray around 1,812 and is expected to continue to rise as long as it trades above the psychological level of 1,800.

The eagle indicator is showing an overbought signal because it has reached the 95-point zone, which indicates an imminent correction. In the next few hours, we expect gold to reach the 3/8 Murray zone located at 1,843 which could be seen as a signal to sell with targets at the 21 SMA located at 1,820 and even fill the gap at 1,817.

In case the uptrend prevails, we could expect the metal to reach the 200 EMA located at 1,853. If this scenario comes true, it will be seen as a clear signal to sell with targets at 1,817 and 1,812 (2/8 Murray).
