Last week, XAU/USD showed a pattern of high-level consolidation. After reaching the key psychological level of 3000 USD on March 17th, gold prices entered a sideways phase. On March 20th, gold hit a new all-time high of 3057 USD per ounce before pulling back. By March 22nd, gold prices had fallen for two straight trading days, briefly touching 2999 USD per ounce. However, dip-buying activity helped recover some of the losses.
From a technical perspective, the 5-day and 20-day moving averages remain in a bullish alignment. However, the price has deviated significantly from these averages, indicating a need for a technical correction.
Gold may continue its adjustment early next week, with support levels to watch in the 3000-3030 USD range. If geopolitical tensions do not escalate significantly, spot gold prices could test support near 2993 USD, though the likelihood of breaking below 3000 USD is low.
If gold prices fall below the 5-day moving average, they may further test the 20-day moving average support (2950.00-2942.00 USD). If the recent consolidation range is broken, the resistance levels to watch are the previous high of 3057 USD and beyond.
