Higher highs and rising moving averages keep the main trend constructive until support fails.

FAQ
Gold market analysis questions
What drives the price of gold?
Gold prices are driven mainly by real interest rates, the U.S. dollar, inflation expectations, central-bank buying, and safe-haven demand during stress. When real yields fall or the dollar weakens, gold often rises.
Does a strong U.S. dollar lower gold prices?
Usually, yes. Gold is priced in dollars, so a stronger dollar makes it more expensive for other currencies and tends to pressure the price. A weaker dollar is generally supportive.
What are real yields and why do they matter for gold?
Real yields are interest rates minus inflation. Because gold pays no interest, it competes with bonds: when real yields fall, the opportunity cost of holding gold drops and gold tends to perform better.
How do I know if gold is in an uptrend?
A simple check is whether the spot price is making higher highs and trading above its rising 50-day and 200-day moving averages. Mark the support level where that thesis would break.
