Yesterday’s rebound in Gold

prices

appears short-lived, with prices again declining towards values of support. Currently the price of Gold is testing intraday support found at the S3 pivot at a price of $1,324.76. A move through this value would be significant, as it would open up the commodity to a bearish breakout below $1,322.04. Not only would this place Gold prices at session lows, but a further decline below $1,320.24 would place the price of Gold at new weekly lows.

If the short-term price action for Gold remains supported, it opens prices to bounce again towards values of resistance.

Intraday range

resistance, as denoted in the 2Hour graph above, is found at the R3 pivot at a price $1,330.22. So far, Gold has failed to break above this boundary in three previous attempts today. In the event that Gold prices do breach this value, bullish breakouts may be signaled above the R4 pivot at $1,322.94.

Alternatively, if prices rebound higher, traders should look for SSI to move back towards values that are more neutral.
