Gold Technical Analysis: Bulls capped by 20-D EMA, bears need close below 38.2% Fibo

  • The bullish divergence on the momentum indicators such as RSI and stochastics kicked in on Thursday (with some help in global data and soft equities playing their role as well).
  • However, the gold has been capped just ahead of the 20-D EMA  by a resilient greenback. A break of 1285 and or, at least, a  hold above 1280 would be required to shake out some speculative shorts  before bulls could target 1303 with a look in at 1308 (61.8% Fibo) and the trendline resistance.
  • On a resumption of the downside, a close below the 38.2% Fibo and 1275 would open prospects back for the 200-D EMA and confluence area of the 50% retracement target of 1250/1253 respectively.
