The downtrend on the 1-hour chart slowed down yesterday after the price jumped above the trendline(1), shifting the S-T downtrend from (1) to (1.1). Before the next break, expect the price to settle in between 1640-65(2) for now.
Overall the trend is still bearish, and a new bearish signal(3) has appeared after the pullback from 1668 yesterday. The resistance at 1665(4) & the 20 days MA(5) are blocking all the climb for now. Once the price clears the support at 1640, gold should be able to consolidate further.
