January 29, 2026 Spot Gold Morning Analysis

Spot gold is slightly strong in the short term but beware of a pullback

Last night, Cheng Jingsheng repeatedly emphasized that there would be significant movements, advising everyone to stay on the sidelines and observe. Sure enough, it surged all the way, breaking new highs again. Starting with the news: the Federal Reserve kept interest rates unchanged, combined with global geopolitical risk aversion and central banks continuing to buy gold, pushing the gold price through $5,400 to a record high. The short-term upward momentum is strong, but the rapid rise earlier has led to profit-taking and selling pressure.

Regarding technical analysis: daily chart shows a bullish arrangement, MACD has a golden cross with increasing volume, but RSI is overbought. In the short term, high-level consolidation is likely, with support at $5,360 and resistance at $5,460.

Trading suggestions: Don’t chase the high! After a big rise, a slight pullback is probable. Wait for the correction to around $5,380 to buy low and go long. Targets are around $5,440, $5,460, and $5,480. Place stop-loss below $5,360. If it directly surges past $5,480, go lightly long, take profits when appropriate, and avoid heavy positions. Managing risk is the top priority.
