• What happened since TP was published?

After kissing a fresh all-time high during the early sessions of Thursday, gold seems to be experiencing a technical throwback on the M30 timeframe as bulls take a breather.

Note: The precious extended gains on Wednesday thanks to dovish comments from Fed Chair Jerome Powell. More volatility could be on the cards for gold due to Fed speeches and the highly anticipated US jobs report on Friday.

• How much in potential profits?

Gold has hit the second take-profit level.

This is equivalent to a 523-point move from the entry price of $2296.25.
