Is Gold looking for a deeper correction abyss?

Short
OANDA:XAUUSD   Gold Spot / U.S. Dollar
It is clear by now that the Gold fantastic dreams of going to the moon in 2020 as the safest heaven asset are proven to be incorrect. Investors are heavily invested in the stock market and digital assets profiting from all the new printed money that is pouring in.

For many investors, Gold is the easiest asset to liquidate from their portfolios. Selling gold to reinvest in other winning assets, or cover commitments and immediate debt seems to be a no brainer. Investors will favor selling gold as opposed to sell other more profitable assets.

The fact that Gold is falling to achieve new heights in 2020, it shows a much deeper issue with the metals, in which IMO has to do with the way modern investor see it, no longer as a monetary asset, but more like a commodity that they park money occasionally.

Bitcoin in the other hand keeps going up, despite many gold bugs wishes of otherwise. Bitcoin is close to revisit its ATH of $20,000 as Gold breaks down unable to secure $2,000, a modern classic investment asset battle took place, and Gold lost.

IMO Gold is bound to go much lower in 2021, I can see it breaking down much lower the 200ma, possibly towards the lower 1500 hundreds, who knows, even lower, perhaps the death cross will follow with a long consolidation period.

If gold didn't manage to break out in the worse financial year since WWII, it will not be able to do much in 2021 supposedly a recovery year, for those holding it, hedge accordingly.
