Gold Price Forecast: XAU/USD surges on falling yields, next levels to watch – Confluence Detector

• Gold has benefited from the collapse of US 10-year yields and soared above $1,810..
• Three barriers await the precious metal on its way up. 
• Gold Price Forecast: Back to its comfort zone ahead of 1,800

Is the Federal Reserve going to raise interest rates? That is pushing yields on short-term bonds higher, but weighing heavily on 10-year Treasury returns – which is good for gold. XAU/USD has finally recaptured $1,800 in what looks like a meaningful move that may usher in a weekly close above that battle line.
