The gold market has been both noisy and bullish at the same time on Friday, as the markets continue to search for answers to tariffs and global trades issues.

Gold Markets Technical Analysis

The gold market initially did rally a bit during the trading session on Friday but has since turned around to show signs of weakness, only to turn around and bounce again. I think we are testing a fairly significant support area on short-term charts, but I’m even more interested in the $2,900 level below, which I think will end up being a massive support area given enough time. Ultimately, this is a market that I do like, and I do think goes higher given enough time. The trend itself is still very much intact, and that should be the main take away from this analysis. I have no scenario in which I’m willing to short the gold market anytime soon.

But right now, I also recognize that we have a lot of noise going on that will continue to be a bit of a problem. Over the longer term though, I still think that this market looks likely to reach the crucial $3,000 barrier and possibly even further than that if given enough time. Longer term, I do think that the $3,000 level will make a little bit of difference as far as a psychological barrier but I do expect that we break through there as well.

Global tensions, tariff wars, pretty much everything out there gives you a reason to own gold. Not to mention the fact that since the end of 2022 we’ve been extraordinarily bullish, so the overall longer-term trend still ties in quite nicely with the idea of acceleration to the upside before it is all said and done.
