Gold price is trading very nervously still inside a trading range of $1,208 and $1,189. Ichimoku indicators remain bullish but with the tendency to change to neutral. Price is below the important resistance and pivot point of the 61.8% retracement of the decline from $1,255. Bulls should keep their stops tight as the down trend could resume any time.
Red line = support
Black lines = triangle
Gold price is trading inside a triangle pattern. Resistance is found at $1,204-$1,207 and support at $1,189-$1,193. Breaking either level will push price towards $1,225 or $1,170. Price is above the Ichimoku cloud and above the red trend line support. Breaking below the triangle will increase the chances of breaking below the support levels and push towards $1,145.

The short-term chart above shows the choppy action in Gold the last few days. There is no clear impulsive action from $1,130 and I believe that this upward move is only a correction against the bigger down trend. Prices usually reverse around the 61.8% retracement levels and this is what I expect to happen in Gold as long as price remains below $1,208.
