XAUUSD: Buyers Defend Structure – Retest 4,520 Resistance Ahead

Hello everyone, here is my breakdown of the current XAUUSD setup. Market Analysis Gold is trading within a strong bullish structure after successfully breaking out of a descending triangle and confirming a shift in market control from sellers to buyers. The initial breakout was followed by a consolidation phase, forming a clear range where price moved sideways, indicating accumulation rather than distribution. After this range, XAUUSD resumed its bullish move and broke above the triangle resistance line, confirming continuation of the uptrend. Currently, price is now trading above a rising trend line, which continues to act as dynamic support. Recently, gold tested the upper Resistance Zone around 4,520, where selling pressure appeared, leading to a short-term pullback. This pullback is unfolding toward the Support Zone near 4,430, which aligns with the prior breakout area and the ascending structure. As long as price remains above this support, the broader bullish trend remains intact and the move lower appears corrective. My Scenario & Strategy My primary scenario remains bullish while XAUUSD holds above the 4,430 support zone. I expect buyers to defend this area and push price higher for another attempt toward the 4,520 resistance zone. Therefore, a clean breakout and acceptance above resistance would confirm bullish continuation and open the way for further upside expansion. However, a decisive breakdown below support would weaken the structure and signal a deeper correction. For now, price action continues to favor buyers as long as the ascending structure holds. That's the setup I'm tracking. Thank you for your attention, and always manage your risk.Today we see that gold made a rapid impulse without correction to our target. Therefore, our goal has been achieved, let's move on.
