Looking at the daily chart, we notice on Friday Gold broke below the Oct 1 low at $1,459 discussed in our last update . Currently, the price is still moving in the same trading zone $1,440 - $1,510.

Thus, a close below the low end of the zone could send XAU/USD towards $1,400. Further close below the low end may embolden sellers to press towards $1,361. That said, the weekly support levels and areas marked on the chart (zoomed in) should be kept in focus.

In turn, any failure in closing below the low end of the zone could keep XAU/USD in the range i.e. may cause a rally towards the high end of the zone.

Gold Four-HOUR PRICE CHART (Oct 3 – Nov 13, 2019)

Gold price four hour chart 13-11-19

From the four-hour chart, we notice on Nov 7, XAUSUD broke below $1,474 then declined creating lower highs with lower lows.

Yesterday, sellers paused bearish price action after leading the price to its lowest since early August. Gold could correct higher if breaks above $1467.

A break above $1489 may send XAUSUD towards $1,510. Nevertheless, the daily resistance level underlined on the chart should be watched closely. On the other hand, a break below $1,430 may see the precious metal trading even lower towards $1,412. Although, the weekly support underlined on the chart should be considered.
