Long
OANDA:XAUUSD   Gold Spot / U.S. Dollar
Strong Bullish Signal:
The pair showed a sharp growth and tested the level of resistance. The price did not break it out, but is still trading near it. The move was on the large volume and supported by the large positive delta, so that we may assume that the smart money pushed the price up. It increases the possibility of the further surge.
Volume Zones:
We need to point out an important level of resistance 1793.50 - 1796.50, which contains the large volume.
Sentiment:
This indicator shows that 58% retails traders are in short positions, which is a good additional signal for us (trading against the "crowd").

Consider Long Positions:
Given all these factors, we may regard a scenario of the breakout of the resistance, which will be a great bullish signal. The growth must be sharp and supported by the large volume, which will be a more reliable signal for entering the market. A stop loss may be placed below the breakout volume bar.
Profit Potential:
More than 400 pips.
