28.06.202316:41 Forex Analysis & Reviews: Gold: 1,910 support taken out

The price of gold crashed after retesting the near-term resistance levels. It's trading at 1,906 at the time of writing far below 1,930 yesterday's high. After its massive drop, we cannot exclude a temporary rebound as the rate could test and retest the near-term resistance levels before resuming its drop.

A sell-off was natural after the US CB Consumer Confidence came in better than expected and after Canadian CPI and Core CPI reported lower inflation. Today, the Australian CPI reported a lower inflation as well, while the US Goods Trade Balance came in better than expected. Tomorrow, the US Final GDP, Unemployment Claims, and Fed Chair Powell Speaks should move the price.

XAU/USD Downside Continuation!

As you can see on the H1 chart, XAU/SUD registered only false breakouts above the weekly pivot point of 1,930 and through the triangle announcing a new sell-off. I told you yesterday that escaping from the triangle pattern should bring us new opportunities.

Its failure to stay above the median line (ml) of the descending pitchfork confirmed strong selling pressure. Now, it has dropped below the 1,910 former low signaling more declines.

XAU/USD Outlook!

Validating the breakdown below 1,910 activates a larger drop. A bearish closure below the S1 (1,901) opens the door for more declines and is seen as a new selling signal. The S2 (1,881) and the lower median line (lml) represent a potential target.
