- Gold has created a classic bull flag – a continuation pattern – on the 4-hour chart.
- A convincing break above $1,248 (upper end of the flag) would signal a continuation of the rally from the low of $1,216 and would open the doors to $1,280 (target as per the measured height method – pole height added to breakout price).
- That target may not look feasible for now. That said, the flag breakout could yield a rally to the 200-day moving average (MA), which is currently located at $1,256.
- The key moving averages (50, 100, and 200) are trending north and located one above the other, indicating the path of least resistance is to the higher side. So, the prospects of the bullish breakout are high.
