XPTUSD Breaks Swing High, Maintains Supremacy Above $915 Mark

Platinum (XPTUSD) has surged in the last 24 hours, embarking on a bullish rally that has sparked excitement among traders. Breaking through the recent swing high near $915, the market has maintained its dominance above this level, establishing a new weekly high in the process.

Traders are now eyeing the next resistance levels, which are likely situated at the 161.8% and 261.8% Fibonacci extensions of the recent swing low. Of particular interest is the 261.8% extension, aligning with last month's high around the $950 mark. Adding to the bullish sentiment is the formation of a golden cross between the EMA 50 and 200, signaling a robust bullish reversal. Furthermore, prices are trading significantly above the value area of the volume profile indicator, reinforcing the upward momentum.

Similarly, the RSI has exhibited aggressive behavior, skyrocketing from 30% to above 70% within the last 24 hours.

In summary, the overall sentiment surrounding platinum is overwhelmingly bullish as it sets its sights on overcoming its first short-term resistance at the 161.8% Fibonacci extension.
