Gold Asia Price Forecast: XAU/USD recovering and approaching 1570/75 resistance zone

  • The bulls are forming a base above $1550/oz level.
  • The 1570/75 area is a strong resistance zone. 
 

Gold daily chart

 
XAU/USD is trading in an uptrend above its main daily simple moving averages (SMAs). However, gold broke below a bear flag and the market recovered slightly this Thursday.
 

Gold four-hour chart

 
Bulls are forming a base near the 1550 level and the 200 SMA on the four-hour chart. The buyers would need a clear breakout above the 1570/75 resistance zone to resume the bullish bias. On the flip side, if the metal fails to make any major progress above the above-mentioned price zone, XAU/USD could become vulnerable to another bearish incursion. If bears break below the 1550 support, it can expose the 1540 and possibly the 1525 level on the way down.
