Gold showing strength today, pushing through resistance. The 200 SMA has been a reliable indicator for me in the past, and we're comfortably above it now. I'm watching for a potential test of the 3900 level. Fundamentally, risk aversion seems to be supporting the metal. Geopolitical tensions and inflation concerns are definitely playing a role. I'm long from 3850, targeting 3920 initially. Stop loss is placed just below the 50 SMA. Let's see if this momentum continues. Patience is key. Good luck to all.

Update: Price has reached 3888. I'm moving my stop loss to break even. Protecting profits is always the priority.

Adding to my earlier comment, the Bollinger Bands are also showing a potential squeeze. This could indicate increased volatility in the near term. I'm tightening my stop loss further to protect against any sudden price swings. Be careful out there.
@CyclistDavid I agree, the 200 SMA is looking pretty solid. I'm watching the RSI, though. It's getting close to overbought territory on the D1. Could see a pullback to around 5010 before another leg up. Playing it cautiously.
David, while the breach of the 200 SMA is encouraging, I'm hesitant to declare a definitive bullish trend just yet. The metal faces considerable resistance around the 4930 level, coinciding with R2 pivot point. Moreover, the Bollinger Bands suggest we're nearing overbought conditions, potentially leading to a pullback. While geopolitical tensions do provide a fundamental tailwind, it's crucial to consider the technicals. I would like to see a sustained close above 4930 before adjusting my outlook. A potential false breakout scenario should be carefully considered.
