GOLD (XAU/USD): a multi-timeframe perspective. Correction time?Firstly, let's take a look at the Weekly timeframe graph as illustrated on the left-hand side of the screen. We may observe that the price has been consecutively printing massive bullish candles after having rejected a crucial level of support (1802 - 1810) highlighted on the graphic. Zooming into the Daily timeframe chart, it can be inferred that the price has been rocketing to the upside, and that it needs for some correctional moves to happen before being able to continue its bullish impulses. Hence, we are anticipating for the price to consolidate around the area circled on the chart before initiating a drop and POTENTIALLY reaching the zone of resistance aligning with the 50% Fibonacci retracement zone.

NATURAL GAS BULLISH RSI DIVERGENCE IN DAILY TF !!!Hello to everyone, As we can see there is a Bullish divergence in RSI & PRICE on daily timeframe . This is indicating that price has not much momentum to go downside. We can expect a trend reversal in natural gas but only RSI divergence does not confirms the trend reversal. We need positive price pattern or any bullish candle formation to go upside at the bottom of chart. If any bullish candle or bullish scenario forms than only we can go for the long position. The green candle indicating price momentum towards upside and green candle has good volume also ,which is showing strength in buyers./b] Traders, if you liked this idea or if you have your own opinion about it, write in the comments. I will be glad.
