Gold Technical Analysis: Break below $1200 mark to confirm resumption of the prior bearish trend

   “¢   The precious metal has now broken below a bearish continuation – flag chart pattern formation on the 15-min. chart and was being weighed down by a modest USD uptick.  

   “¢   Technical indicators have gradually started losing positive momentum and hence, the commodity remains vulnerable to extend overnight retracement slide from over two-week tops.  

   “¢   A convincing break back below the key $1200 psychological mark will reaffirm that the recent corrective bounce is already over and pave the way for the resumption of the prior depreciating move.
