Gold Technical Analysis: Faces rejection near support turned resistance, slides to daily lows

   “¢   Gold met with some aggressive selling in the last hour and has now eroded a major part of the previous session’s goodish bounce from closer to over two-week lows.

   “¢   The intraday uptick failed to sustain above 100-hour SMA and quickly ran out of steam near an important horizontal support break-point now turned resistance.  

   “¢   Given that oscillators on hourly charts have been gaining negative traction, a subsequent fall below 50-hour SMA paves the way for further intraday decline.

   “¢   Bearish traders might now be aiming for a test of $1276 intermediate support before the precious metal extends the bearish slide further towards the $1270-68 region.
