Gold Technical Analysis: Rebound Extends to Monthly High

Gold Technical Analysis: Rebound Extends to Monthly High

Talking Points:

Gold prices accelerated upward after a brief period of consolidation following the release of July’s FOMC meeting minutes. Near-term resistance is at 1151.79, the 50% Fibonacci retracement, with a break above that on a daily closing basis exposing the 61.8% level at 1170.79. Alternatively, a move below the 1126.63-32.79 area (August 13 high, 38.2% Fib) opens the door for a challenge of the 23.6% retracement at 1109.28.
