GOLD TECHNICAL FORECAST – BEARISH
Spot gold is testing crucial technical support, a break below which could point to further weakness in coming months. It is attempting to break below key horizontal trendline support at 1,676, coinciding with the 200-week moving average. Although it closed below the support on Thursday, given the significance of the support and the number of times it has been tested since 2021, it might be prudent to wait for two weekly closes below the support before concluding Thursday’s move as a valid break.
