Analysis Based on 5-Min Chart: Looking for a break of the downward trend lines to trigger a counter-trend rally.


Following the aggressive broader market sell-off we have tracked since the beginning of March, an actionable technical setup is currently unfolding on the intraday charts for AngloGold Ashanti (ANG).

The stock has managed to carve out a definitive hard floor, forming a double-bottom structure at the 183,198 ZAC support level. We are currently observing a sharp, impulsive rally off this base, characterized by a breakout from immediate descending wedge resistance structures.


Here is a breakdown of the current market dynamics and our strategic outlook across the intraday timeframes:


Technical Context & Key Levels

  • The Reversal Base: The defense of the 183,198 ZAC level early today acted as a springboard. This is our critical line in the sand; a failure of this double-bottom support would signal a severe resumption of the overarching downtrend.

  • Immediate Breakout: Ultra Short Term momentum is firmly favoring the upside. Price action has breached the steepest near-term resistance, indicating immediate buying pressure.

  • Overhead Supply: The price is rapidly approaching a major technical convergence zone between 188,000 and 188,500 ZAC. This area aligns with the primary descending trendline that has dictated the structural sell-off since the March peak.



Execution Strategy


This is a tactical, counter-trend momentum play. The strategy relies entirely on the structural integrity of the 183,198 ZAC double-bottom. We recommend looking to take intraday profits as the asset approaches the 188,500 ZAC resistance zone, as the broader structure does not yet support holding this position overnight.


Any significant strength into resistance would raise the probability of a further breakout.


Strict stop-losses must be placed just below 183,198 ZAC to protect capital against a trend continuation.
