Gold price climbs back closer to over 2 week high touched on Wed
Gold price attracts some buying for the fourth straight day on Thursday and moves back closer to over a two-week high, around the $2,056 area touched the previous day. The US Dollar struggles to capitalize on Wednesday's post-FOMC bounce from a one-week trough.
As observed on the daily chart, Gold price confirmed an upside break from a month-long symmetrical triangle formation after closing convincingly above the falling trendline resistance at $2,036 on Wednesday.
The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator points north above the midline, suggesting that there is enough room for the upside.
Traders have paid little attention to the Bear Cross validated on Tuesday after the 21-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) crossed the 50-day SMA from above on a daily closing.
With the bullish bias likely intact in Gold price, the immediate strong resistance is seen at the previous day’s high of $2,056, above which the December 12 high of 2,062 wil be tested. Further up, the $2,070 round figure could challenge bearish commitments.
On the downside, powerful support continues to remain at the $2,030 region, where the 21- and 50-day Simple Moving Averages (SMA) hang around.
Acceptance below the latter could reinforce the selling interest for a test of the triangle support at $2,016. If the downside momentum gains traction, a test of the key $2,000 threshold could be in the offing.
