Chart of the Week: Gold is moulding a bullish close for the month

  • Gold is attempting a bullish recovery that could lead to fresh daily highs.
  • The longer-term outlook is bullish as the month is set to print a bullish close.

The last week of the month and the start of a new quarter could print a bullish prospect on the monthly chart, as illustrated below. The month is set to close with a bullish candle and long wick that represents a phase of accumulation on the lower time frames. 

Gold, monthly chart

The price has surged from a 61.8% Fibonacci retracement area but has pulled back in the middle of the month in what could be regarded as a ''healthy correction'':

Gold, weekly chart

The pullback has been strong but so too has been the support that leaves prospects for a bullish structure for the weeks ahead. 

Gold, daily chart

The bulls will need to break the $2,000 mark and in doing so, will likely leave behind a bullish structure of support from which the price can lean against on its way to fresh highs for the foreseeable future. 

Gold, H1 chart

From a short term perspective, and for the open this week, it appears that the price wants to break the resistance and head higher.
