GOLD – Near term range bound trading is likely
to continue with 1625/1641 barrier
A larger wave IV corrective wave is underway from 1921
(Sep’11 high) which has the potential to test the 1460/1308 on multimonth basis
(Alternative view is that a triangle consolidation with the metal holds the 1527
support). The 1791 resistance would
remain as tough barrier in the medium term. A break below 1527/1500 would renew the bear
trend toward 1460/1308.
The metal is maintaining a range trade after holding the key 1527
support during May risk aversion. The
range bound trading is likely to continue with the 1625/1641 resistance is
capping the strength. The 1548/1527
looks to hold in the near term on setbacks. A move above 1641 could extend the recovery
toward 1672/1697 (prior triangle range) which will remain as tough hurdle in
the short term. A reversal below 1527
however renews the downtrend.
