Gold Technical Analysis: Corrective rally is stalling

  • Gold’s corrective rally from the 12-month low of $1,211 is running out of steam.
  • The yellow metal has created a rising wedge-like pattern on the hourly chart and the 14-hour relative strength index (RSI) has rolled over from the overbought territory.
  • Hence, a minor price pullback could be in the offing before technical recovery gains more ground, as indicated by the bullish price-RSI and bullish price-stochastic divergence.
