Gold price forecast

World gold prices continue to maintain above the high level after surpassing the 5,100 USD/ounce mark set in February, however, technical signals show that the market is entering a sensitive phase, posing a risk of strong correction.

The fact that the precious metal has maintained above the 5,100 USD/ounce threshold in the past time is considered a factor strengthening the medium-term upward trend. According to Ms. Razan Hilal - market analyst at Forex. com, the main support comes from safe-haven demand in the context of trade policy instability and unpredictable fluctuations in the global economy. This recovery momentum helps gold prices return to a positive technical zone after previous strong fluctuations.

However, resistance pressure is clearly appearing as the price approaches the 5,200 - 5,300 USD/ounce zone, an area that has repeatedly stopped upward waves in the past. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is currently returning to the overbought zone, raising concerns about the possibility of weakening of the upward momentum.

This development is assessed to be similar to the period before the strong sell-off at the beginning of the year, when the market quickly reversed after technical indicators sent warning signals.

Closing below 5,100 USD/ounce could open up a scenario of deeper correction, returning to support zones that previously attracted buying power" - Ms. Razan Hilal said.

According to analysis, if this important support level is broken, gold prices may retreat to the 4,800 USD/ounce zone. In a more negative scenario, the 4,600 USD/ounce or even 4,380 USD/ounce levels are considered potential demand zones.

In the opposite direction, the long-term outlook for gold still receives positive assessments from many major financial institutions. The analysis group at J.P. Morgan forecasts that gold prices may increase by about 22% by the end of 2026, with the goal of reaching the 6,300 USD/ounce range.

According to Ms. Natasha Kaneva - Head of Global Commodity Strategy at J.P. Morgan, the trend of diversifying reserves and investment portfolios to gold still has room, especially in the context of the weakening USD and US interest rates tending to fall.

Thus, in the short term, gold prices are facing a major challenge in the strong resistance zone, while the 5,100 USD/ounce mark plays a key role in terms of trend. The upcoming fluctuations are likely to depend on the ability to maintain buying power as well as the developments of global macroeconomic factors.

Gold price data is compared to the previous day.
