Gold is Trading at Record High Levels—These Are The Key Price Levels to Watch

Key Takeaways Gold prices have rallied over the past week and are near record-high levels after a wave of profit-taking in late July. Since a shooting star pattern marked gold's high in late April, the commodity has consolidated in an ascending triangle, a bullish chart formation that signals a potential continuation of the longer-term uptrend. Investors should watch key overhead areas on spot gold's chart around $3,435 and $3,735, while also monitoring major support levels near $3,245 and $3, (XAUUSD) prices have rallied over the past week and are near record-high levels after a wave of profit-taking in late July. Investors have bid up the precious metal amid uncertainty over the outlook for the U.S. economy and expectations that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates in September, following July's weaker-than-expected employment report released last Friday. Gold tends to benefit from its reputation as a safe-haven asset during times of economic uncertainty, while lower rates also support the non-yielding asset. Reports that the U.S. will impose tariffs on imports of gold bars have also underpinned gains this week. The commodity has soared about 30% this year, boosted by concerns over the Trump administration's unpredictable trade policies—amid uncertainty about how tariffs will affect the economy—and ongoing tensions in the Middle East. Spot gold was trading at just under $3,400 per troy ounce recently. Below, we take a closer look at the spot gold price chart and use technical analysis to identify key levels that investors will likely be watching. Bullish Ascending Triangle Takes Shape Since a shooting star pattern marked gold's high in late April, the commodity has consolidated in an ascending triangle, a bullish chart formation that signals a potential continuation of the longer-term uptrend. More recently, the price has rallied from the triangle's lower trendline and reclaimed the respected 50-day moving average (MA), a move that has coincided with the relative strength index crossing back into bullish territory. Let's identify two key overhead areas to watch on gold's chart if the recent upward momentum continues and also point out major support levels worth monitoring during possible retracements. Key Overhead Areas to Watch The first overhead area to watch sits around $3,435. This location on the chart would likely provide significant resistance near four distinct peaks that form the ascending triangle's top trendline. Investors can forecast a bullish price target above gold's all-time high by using the measured move technique, a tool that analyzes chart patterns to project future price movements. When applying this analysis, we calculate the distance of the ascending triangle near its widest section and add that amount to the pattern's top trendline. For instance, we add $300 to $3,435, which projects a target of $3,735, about 10% above the commodity's current trading levels. Major Support Levels Worth Monitoring During retracements, investors should initially monitor how gold's price responds to the $3,245 level. The metal may find support in this area near a range of corresponding price action on the chart between April and June. Finally, a breakdown below the ascending triangle's lower trendline could see the commodity's price revisit lower support around $3,150. Investors may look to accumulate gold in this region near the April peak, which closely aligns with the completion of a pullback to the 50-day MA in mid-May.

Airbnb Stock Just Went on Sale. Here's How to (Safely) Trade the Post-Earnings Dive with Options.

We all likely remember the classic hit 'Who Let the Dogs Out?' When I saw the slide in Airbnb's (ABNB) stock price a day after its quarterly earnings release on Aug. 6, my first reaction was 'who let the air out?' This is the latest example of what today's stock market does during earnings season. It is unlike anything I've seen in my decades of investing. I'm a chartist, strategist, and above all, a risk manager, so the circus that is quarterly reporting from public companies is something I monitor, but go nowhere near. More News from Barchart Lyft Stock Isn't a Smooth Ride After Earnings, But This Low-Risk, High-Reward Trade Gives It Gas Strategic Arbitrage: Post-Earnings Drama Causes Dynatrace's (DT) Call Spreads to be Favorably Mispriced The Nasdaq-100 Is Showing Signs of Weakness. Here's How You Can Limit Your Losses If It Crashes. Tired of missing midday reversals? The FREE Barchart Brief newsletter keeps you in the know. Sign up now! If I'm trading a stock with earnings approaching, I'm either hedged or I've reduced my position. The best analogy I can use is that once I've been hit on the head dozens of times, I finally realize that creating distance between myself and whatever is hitting me is a good idea. As for ABNB, it has risen through the ranks to knock on the door of a $100 billion market capitalization. But the market had other ideas, sending shares down more than 8% on Aug. 7. Now, near 30x forward earnings and selling at well under 3x its earnings growth rate, this stock might be worth a look. Because after the market punishes a stock for missing earnings or issuing a lackluster forecast, it moves on to something else. And when that happens, there could be opportunity in what gets left behind. Charting ABNB: Some Home Repairs Needed I readily admit that some of my best collared positions in 2025 were stocks I truly did not care for. And that's the beauty of collars. Because with a stock like ABNB, you can see in the daily chart just below that it is capable of making investors giddy, and then stealing their candy just days later. Earlier this year, the stock popped 20% on earnings, then crashed 40% in a matter of weeks, along with the market. That tells me if I own ABNB at all, I better collar it. That daily chart above looks like a sick puppy to me. The percent price oscillator (PPO) is dropping fast, along with the price trend structure itself (top section of chart). The 20-day moving average did not immediately break after earnings, but it soon will. The weekly chart below is poised to go lower as well, if the PPO proves accurate. Remember that while technical analysis is in my opinion the best way to manage risk, risk can happen anywhere. How to Collar Airbnb Stock Ultimately, every investor is their own boss. So while ABNB is not a stock I'd put high on my buy list, that doesn't mean a collar approach doesn't fit. In fact, it fits well here. That's a fairly straightforward 2:1 shot above. The prices of the options will shift a lot with the stock, so be sure to 'mark to market' any time you do this type of analysis. Especially when a stock is being tossed around by traders. In this snapshot example, with the stock around $120, I could have set a $140-$115 range out to January 16, and it would have cost 3% of the stock price. That's $7.60 a share paid for the $115 strike puts and the $4.00 received in cash for those $140 calls. That produces a nice, albeit pedestrian 14% upside to 7% downside over that period. Sometimes the best figure to look at with a collar is the stock price itself. So getting the options aspect out of our heads for a moment, here's a stock that traded as high as $143 a share on July 28. Getting to $140 within 5 months or so is certainly within range. That's why sometimes, we just need to keep it simple: buy what you like, protect against the worst-case scenarios with options, and give it some time. Even when the market doesn't.

Ethereum Cracks $4,000 for First Time in 8 Months

Ethereum's price touched $4,000 per coin on Friday for the first time since last December on a number of top exchanges, as transactions on the blockchain surged amid a more favorable environment for the asset and wider crypto markets. The second biggest digital coin in existence was recently trading just below that level, according to crypto data provider CoinGecko, after jumping 4% over a 24-hour period. It hit the $4,000 mark at about 9 a.m. New York time on America's biggest crypto exchange Coinbase. The gains far outplaced Bitcoin, the largest cryptocurrency by market value, which was up just a few ticks of a percentage point from Thursday, same time, to trade at about $116,600. But it fell short of XRP's 7.6% gains. Solana and other major altcoins were more modestly in the green. The coin is still 18% below its all-time high of $4,878 that it hit in 2021. But over a 30-day period, the coin has rallied by over 50% over a 30-day period as Ethereum treasuries have mushroomed. Peter Thiel-backed Bitcoin miner BitMine Immersion and marketing firm SharpLink Gaming have accumulated $2.9 billion and $1.9 billion of ETH respectively since embarking on this strategy and are intent on adding more to their holdings. These Ethereum treasuries are following a model pioneered by Strategy—formerly MicroStrategy—which shifted from software development to buying Bitcoin in 2020 after years of struggling and low share prices. Strategy now holds 628,791 BTC worth over $72 billion. Ethereum Treasury SharpLink Adds $265 Million in ETH to Holdings Trading activity on the Ethereum network has also risen amid increased staking as investors have grown more upbeat about its potential uses but also from recent regulatory decisions that have been favorable to the crypto industry. A Myriad Linea Markets table showed that 76% of participants believed that Ethereum transactions would exceed 12 million for the week-long period ending August 10. Meanwhile, U.S. investors piled into ETH exchange-traded funds. Those funds have generated more than $9.3 billion in net inflows since their debut last year, according to U.K. asset manager Farside Investors.
