Gold rally falls short at previous low
Gold saw a sharp appreciation yesterday, which fell short at the confluence of last Wednesday’s low and the 50% retracement. With the price moving lower overnight, a break back below $1223 would be required to signal that this recent downtrend is set to continue.
Should that occur, the $1216-$1220 zone represents the next major hurdle to overcome to the downside. Conversely, a break above the previous swing high (currently $1237) would provide a more bullish outlook.
