Gold Price Outlook: XAU/USD
The price of gold extends the rally from the start of the week to register a fresh monthly high ($3434), and bullion may continue to retrace the decline from the June high ($3451) as it carves a series of higher highs and lows.
Gold Price Rallies to Fresh Monthly High

With that said, a move above 70 in the RSI is likely to be accompanied by a further rise in gold like the price action from earlier this year, but lack of momentum to push above the June high ($3451) may keep bullion within the April range.
