Hi Traders, here is my analysis for XAUUSD (GOLD)

Technical Analysis:
Monthly Timeframe:
Strong Uptrend market for gold, in fact we’ve seen price hitting all time highs in the process. Based on Elliot Waves Principles, we have completed the 3rd wave of that super cycle and we should start to see some correction in the market (consolidation) which is also clear based on the market structure in the last 2 months. Analysis of the RSI is also providing confluence of a heavily over bought market. therefore I wouldn’t be surprise to see the market revisit the $1800s or even lower.

Weekly Timeframe:

A clearer representation of the market structure can be seen here where price has seem to have found some support around $1950.00. Therefore this will be the area of interest to pay close attention to for any close below in the coming weeks.

Daily Timeframe:
A closer look on the daily timeframe has put together in context a lot of what we identified on the higher timeframes. We are seeing a bearish triangle formation completed, which also provides additional confluence to an imminent bearish market. This current market structure in addition to price action from the monthly and weekly would make a short trade the direction with least resistance.

My overall bias is still SHORT and to see price action hitting $1800.00
I've labeled the areas based on what I will be anticipating.
