New ATH looks imminent, but how will the break be?

Yesterday's CPI report failed to provide a clear direction for Gold's mid-term movement. After initial volatility, during which the $2500 level held as support for the fourth time in two days, Gold once again closed the day near the middle of its range.

While we can't draw a definitive conclusion from the price action, it seems that the price is pressing towards the previous all-time high, and a new high appears imminent. In the short term, the outlook remains bullish as long as the $2500 level holds.

The key mid-term question is: What will the nature of the potential breakout be (if one occurs)? Given the more than one-month consolidation, we could see a strong breakout with upward acceleration.
However, the $2540 zone, which serves as resistance in the newly formed upward channel, poses a technical challenge. A failure to break above this level could see Gold retreat below $2500.

In conclusion: Short-term outlook remains bullish, but mid-term direction is still unclear.
