- Gold is in a bear trend as it is trading below its 50, 100 and 200-period simple moving average.
- Gold is trapped in a range between 1,180.00 and $1,210.00 a troy ounce. The yellow metal is currently rebounding from the 1,180.00 level and is challenging a bear trendline (red) while the RSI, MACD and Stochastics are supportive of higher prices.
- If bulls keep the momentum going it can lead to the 1,200.00 figure near the SMA cluster. However, a bear breakout below 1,182.90 August 24 low would likely lead to a continuation of the bear trend.
