- XPD/USD corrects after reaching fresh all-time-highs just shy of $2,900.

- The supply deficit continues to boost the price of Palladium amid rising demand.
Palladium (XPD/USD) is correcting towards $2,850 after hitting a fresh record high at $2,897 on Wednesday.
The white metal rallied as much as 5%, taking out the previous lifetime highs of $2,882 set earlier this year, as investors fretted that the supply deficit issue would likely worsen amid a rebound in demand from the automakers.
Further, the rally in gold prices also bolstered the upsurge in the XPD/USD. Palladium is used heavily in industrial applications apart from it being a precious metal.
Price of Palladium
As observed on the four-hour sticks, the price of palladium continues to waver in a rising wedge formation after facing rejection at the pattern hurdle.
The immediate support awaits at $2,850 the psychological level.
If the correction extends, a test of the wedge support at $2,810 could be in play. That level also coincides with the 21-simple moving average (SMA) cap.

The next stop for the bulls is seen at the rising wedge support, now at $2,912.
