XAUUSD TECNICAL ANALYSIS the M15 timeframe, price has printed a clear ascending structure since the 20:30 session on 20 Aug. The initial move broke above prior swing highs with a series of higher lows, and the red trendline connecting those early peaks confirms momentum was absorbed rather than rejected. Candles remained predominantly green with shallow red corrections, which indicates buyers were stepping in on dips. Volume pressure isn’t visible here, but the spacing between wicks shows consolidation was brief and followed by fresh impulsive legs. The green shaded zone between approximately 4523.46 and 4536.81 is acting as the most relevant demand area. Price respected it during the 03:30–04:00 period, bounced, and has not retested it since. The arrow drawn from that zone toward the current level suggests it is being treated as a launch pad for continuation. On M15, holding above a previously marked support and then building structure above it typically validates the zone, and the absence of a deep wick into it on the rally to 4613.56 reinforces buyer control. At the top, price has reached the horizontal line at 4613.56 marked at 04:12. The most recent candle shows a long upper wick touching that level, which signals supply entering but not yet a full reversal. Until a 15-minute close prints firmly below the prior candle’s mid-point, the bias remains to the upside. A break and close above 4613.56 with the next candle holding above it would open room toward the next round-number extension, while a rejection would likely pull price back to test the ascending structure first. From a structure perspective, higher highs and higher lows remain intact. The shallow pullbacks between 09:30 and 11:30 did not violate the last significant swing low, so the micro trend is unbroken. Momentum has not shown divergence yet on this timeframe because each push has made a new high. The risk to bulls is a failed close above resistance followed by a break of the last minor swing low near 4590, which would indicate profit-taking rather than a trend changed.
