Gold Bull Flag b/o

Gold has been the best mover to start the week and has made a 4hr chart breakout above a 10-month Bull Flag trend line. The GBP pairs have edged higher too and I suspect this is due to optimism with the easing of Covid restrictions. Apart from that, there isn’t much momentum around so keep watch for new TL breakouts.

 

Data: not much high impact news for today:

DXY daily: a bit lower so watch for any new TL b/o:

 

Trend line breakouts:

Gold: This breakout above a 10-month Bull Flag trend line is significant but this breakout will need to hold for the week, at least, to support the longer-term Bull Flag scenario.

Gold 4hr: a new TL b/o above $1,850 for $16 so watch for any push to $1,900.
