What to watch next

After a rally of this magnitude, watch for:

  • Potential resistance at the next round number above current price
  • Follow-through in the next session (London/NY) — a continuation confirms trend
  • DXY (US Dollar Index) reaction — gold and USD typically move inversely
  • Volume confirmation — strong moves on high volume are more likely to sustain
