Gold price is looking to build on the previous recovery gains as the Dollar retreats further from four-week highs. Will XAU/USD breach $1,850 on Fed Chair Powell’s speech? FXSTreet’s Dhwani Mehta analyzes the pair’s technical outlook.

“At the moment, the US Dollar is pulling back from monthly highs, as investors turn on the sidelines ahead of Jerome Powell’s speech. A fresh round of volatility is likely to be triggered by his comments, which could offer a fresh boost to the USD at the expense of Gold.”

“The four-week low of $1,860 needs to give way to initiate a fresh downswing toward the $1,850 psychological mark, where the bullish 50DMA aligns. A sustained break below the latter will see further declines toward the January 5 low of $1,825.”

“Gold could revisit the previous day’s high at $1,881 should the recovery regain traction. The next powerful barrier is seen at the $1,900 threshold.”

“It’s worth noting that XAU/USD remains exposed to downside risks so long as it stays below the 21-Daily Moving Average (DMA) at $1,912.”
