Early in the American session, Gold (XAU/USD) is trading at around 1671. It is recovering from losses after hitting the 1,660 level in the European session. This technical rebound in gold is encouraged by a slight drop in yields of Treasury bonds.

The future of gold could be determined by the crisis between Russia and Ukraine. Yesterday, Russia confirmed attacks with long-range nuclear weapons. In case of further escalation, the price of gold could quickly rise due to the fact that it is a refuge asset and it could reach the level of 1,750 and even the psychological level of 1,800.

The last 4-hour candle shows a probable recovery of gold and its price could reach the 6/8 Murray zone around 1,687 in the next few hours. This level represents strong resistance. 1,692 (21 SMA) is located above this level and 1,695 matches the 200 EMA.

In case there is a pullback towards this area, it will be a clear signal to sell gold around 1,687 - 1,695 with targets at 1,670 and 1,656.

This technical bounce in gold could confirm that the retracement towards the 61.8% Fibonacci zone is complete and the metal could start a new bullish sequence. In case gold consolidates above 1,656 in the next few days, there is a chance that there will be a recovery and the price could reach the area of 1,718 and even 8/8 Murray at 1,750.

XAUUSD is expected to resume its bullish cycle in the next few hours and it can reach the top of the downtrend channel around $1,683. In case of breaking above, we should prepare to sell below 1,695 (200 EMA).

Our trading plan for the next works is to buy gold at current price levels around 1,660-1,670 with targets at 1,687 (6/8 Murray) and 1,695. The eagle indicator is showing a positive signal which supports our bullish strategy.

GBPUSD up and down. Back down testing 61.8% and swing area.

# GBPUSD tests 61.8% and swing area The GBPUSD is in an up and down day. The    GBPUSD  moved higher earlier. That move was helped by better than expected retail sales. However the high price today stalled near the high price from last week near 1.3643, and rotated back lower on the USD buying. The subsequent move lower now has the price back toward the 61.8% retracement along with a swing area between 1.35969 and 1.36034. As I type, the price has dipped below that swing area. What next? If the price can stay below the 1.36034 area, that would be the best case scenario for the sellers with the next major targets coming in at the 100 hour moving average 1.3569 (blue line), and the 200 hour moving average at 1.35609 (green line). The 50% midpoint of the 2022 trading range is just below those levels at 1.35526 and would be a another target on further weakness. A move back above 1.36034 with momentum would have traders looking again toward 1.3618 to 1.36271 and then t...
