Spot gold may retest resistance at $1,290

28 Aug, 2014

SINGAPORE: Spot gold may retest a resistance at $1,290, with a good chance of breaking above it and rising further to $1,301, as indicated by a triangle and a Fibonacci retracement analysis.

The rebound from the Aug. 21 low of $1,273.06 may extend, as the drop from the Aug. 26 high of $1,290.80 has been shaped into a triangle, which is a bullish continuation pattern.

The Fibonacci retracement on the fall from the July. 10 high of $1,345 to $1,273.06 reveals the resistance at $1,290, the 23.6 percent level that has triggered the correction from $1,290.80. The next resistance will be at $1,301, the 38.2 percent level.

Support is at $1,280, the 14.6 percent Fibonacci retracement on the fall from the Aug. 8 high of $1,322.60 to $1,273.06, a break below which will cause a further loss to $1,273.06.
