Daily Price Outlook

- Gold holds above the $3,021 pivot and 50 EMA, reinforcing bullish momentum.

- Immediate resistance lies at $3,039, followed by $3,047 and $3,057.

- A drop below $3,005 may expose deeper support at $2,982.

Gold (XAU/USD) continues to show resilience despite modest intraday pressure, currently trading near $3,028.27.

The metal is consolidating just above its key pivot point at $3,021.46, which also aligns closely with the 50-period Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $3,021.41. This convergence is acting as a short-term anchor, maintaining the metal’s bullish structure.

On the upside, the first resistance level is located at $3,039.33. A sustained move above this level could open the door to $3,047.18 and potentially $3,057.66, the latter of which marks last week’s high and a critical breakout point.

However, bulls need a convincing push through $3,039.33 to reassert control and challenge these higher targets.

On the downside, immediate support rests at $3,005.28. A breach here could expose gold to a deeper pullback toward $2,993.39 and $2,982.18.

These levels represent key technical defenses that have previously triggered buying interest. A close below $2,982 would indicate a breakdown from the current bullish setup.

From a trading perspective, the structure favors a tactical long position above $3,021, targeting $3,039 while maintaining a stop at $3,011 to mitigate downside risk.
