Technical Analysis: Gold price could weaken further once the overnight low around $2,150 is broken

From a technical perspective, the overnight swing low, around the $2,150 area, now seems to protect the immediate downside. Against the backdrop of the overbought Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the daily chart, a convincing break below might prompt some technical selling and drag the Gold price to the next relevant support near the $2,128-2,127 zone. The subsequent slide might expose the $2,100 round figure, which should act as a strong base for the XAU/USD and a key pivotal point for short-term traders.

On the flip side, any further move up is likely to face some resistance around the $2,174-2,175 region ahead of the $2,195 area, or the record peak touched last Friday. Some follow-through buying beyond the $2,200 mark will push the Gold price to the uncharted territory and set the stage for the resumption of the recent blowout rally witnessed over the past two weeks or so
