Gold Technical Analysis: confirms a fresh bearish breakdown

   “¢   The bearish momentum extends to break below a medium-term ascending trend-line, extending from Jan. 2017 lows through lows touched in July/Dec. 2017.

   “¢   Formation of a death-cross on the daily chart (50-day SMA crossing 200-day SMA from the top) further reinforces the bearish breakdown.  

   “¢   Near-term oversold conditions might turn out to be the only factor prompting some short-covering and help limit immediate sharp downside.
