Analysis
An ascending fifth wave of larger degree 5 is presumably developing on the weekly chart, with wave (3) of 5 forming as its part. The third wave of smaller degree 3 of (3) appears to continue developing on the daily chart. Within it, wave iii of 3 has formed, a local correction is completed as wave iv of 3, and wave v of 3 has started unfolding. Wave (i) of v is developing on the H4 chart, with wave iii of (i) forming as its part. If the presumption is correct, XAU/USD will continue to rise to the levels of 3,600.00 – 3,800.00. The level of 3,311.50 is critical in this scenario, as a breakout will enable the asset to continue declining to 3,120.00 – 2,950.00.
This forecast is based on the Elliott Wave Theory. When developing trading strategies, it is essential to consider fundamental factors, as the market situation can change at any time
