Gold sitting right at a pivotal level, eyes on the 2000 mark again
Watching $XAUUSD closely here. We've been ping-ponging around this 1980-2000 area for a bit, and it feels like a decision point is coming. If we can punch through and hold above 2000, then I'd look for a retest of those prior highs. The risk, for me, is a clean break back below 1970. That would suggest the bulls are losing grip and we could see a deeper correction towards the 1940s. Just keeping an eye on the macro, particularly the dollar strength, which has been a headwind.
It's a common observation that the 1980-2000 range has been a battleground. However, focusing solely on technical levels without considering the broader economic narrative might be missing a piece of the puzzle.
