Key Points:

  • Platinum is consolidating after the recent pullback, with buyers watching key support for the next setup.
  • Tight supply and low inventories continue to support the long-term bullish outlook.
  • Gold strength and a firm U.S. dollar are still limiting platinum’s near-term recovery.

Platinum (XPL) prices dropped from the $2,160 resistance in May and are now approaching the first key support near $1,900. In my view, this correction produces a consolidation pattern between $1,700 and $1,900 before the next significant move. This article presents the fundamental drivers, technical setup, related market signals and key levels to find the next move in the platinum market.
