Technical Analysis

Gold cleared the 1700 support yesterday. The day began at 1791. The trading was relatively stable during the Asian and European sessions, within the tight range of 1700-07. The price cleared the 1700(1) support late in the US session, pushing the price to the day-low near 1693. The day ended at 1696, down slightly by USD 4.

The market has been quiet since the rapid drop after the US CPIs the day before. An S-T resistance line(2)has been formed in the 1-hour chart in the past 24 hours; gold needs to clear the 1690 support in the European session today. Otherwise, the price will jump back above the downward trendline(2), triggering a new round of buying. If the price breaks the resistance line(2), the S-T upside target can be set at yesterday’s high of 1707. On the other hand, 1680 remains the critical support.

The structure hasn’t changed much in the daily chart; the price remains in the 1690-1730(4) range. It will be ready to move below 1680 if the price closes below 1695.

Gold pulled back near the 1-week high yesterday. The day began at 1724. and the price was bounded by 1720-30 during the early Asian and European sessions. Once the US released its inflation figures, the price broke out from the uptrend channel(1) and dipped to the day low near 1697. The day eventually ended at 1701, down by USD 23.

Although gold fell more than USD 20 yesterday, it still maintains its position within the 1700-30(2) range in the 1-hour chart. If an S-T rebound began in early trading, the upside target could be set at 1709(3).

The selling has yet to show signs of slowing down on the daily chart. The price may test again at the bottom of the range(4) near 1690, later in the European or the US trading sessions.
