  • Gold is trading in a bear channel with downward sloping simple moving averages. However, the RSI and MACD indicators are showing signs of bearish exhaustion and the market might be bottoming out. Gold is in a range between 1,182.90 and 1,204.10.  
  • Bulls have a slight advantage especially if they manage to keep the market above 1,204.10. A bull breakout above 1,220.90 would be considered as bullish as it would create a higher highs on the daily chart.
