In our last analysis, we expected Gold price to bounce and maybe start a new upward move that could bring us to new 2019 highs. However for this scenario to happen we noted that a certain resistance would have to break first. I said that the bullish scenario would strengthen with a break above $1,520. Unfortunately for bulls price slightly moved above this level today but got rejected as sellers pushed price below $1,500 again. This was a sign of weakness.

Red lines - bullish channel

Green line - major support trend line

Gold price remains inside the bullish channel. However the daily candlestick pattern is a bearish one, not giving much hope for any upside. The long upper tail confirms that sellers were stronger today and usually after such days, we expect a follow through, in this case more downside.

Gold price got rejected at the tenkan-sen (red line indicator) and at the kijun-sen (yellow line indicator). This resistance that we mentioned yesterday did not break but instead it provided a rejection. Closing below $1,500 was not a sign of strength, as this implies more downside over the coming weeks.Key resistance remains at $1,520-25. Breaking above it would be a bullish sign. Support is at $1,480-70 and breaking below it will open the way for $1,430-$1,450 minimum.
