- Gold failed to capitalize on the early uptick to weekly tops and dropped to fresh session tops in reaction to hotter-than-expected US core CPI print.
- Weakness below 23.6% Fibo. level of this week’s up-move from the $1385 region to $1419 area was seen as a key trigger for intraday bearish traders.
However, the intraday downtick managed to find some support near 38.2% Fibo., which should now act as a key pivotal point for the precious metal’s next leg of any meaningful intraday momentum.
Meanwhile, the occurrence of a Golden Cross on the 1-hourly chart – 50-hour SMA crossing above 200-hour SMA, remains tilted in favour of bullish traders and support prospects for a further appreciating move.
Moreover, technical indicators on hourly/daily charts have managed to hold in the positive territory, further reinforcing the constructive outlook and suggesting some dip-buying interest at lower levels.
Hence, any subsequent slide below daily lows is more likely to remain limited and attract some fresh buying near the $1407 confluence region – comprising of 50-hour SMA and 50% Fibo. level.
