      How Gold looks on daily chart using price action analysis?

      On the daily chart, price still at a bearish structure, but price is back at the consolidation. A potential breakout either the daily support or resistance zone could give its momentum towards the exact direction.

      Here is what I notice on the daily timeframe:

      • Daily is still in a bullish trend
      • Price is already breaking below key support level
      • It is inside the potential consolidation zone level (price is inside daily support and resistance level)

      What Is the best way to approach the potential consolidation on Gold?

      When the market is inside a consolidation or accumulation zone the price is going to move sideways making it to choppy to trade (mostly this is where wick outs could occur),

      A break and retest pattern helps traders avoid forcing trades inside a consolidation range. Instead of guessing the next move, traders should wait for the price to break a key level (whether resistance level or support level) and retest it before entering.
