Gold price holds above the short-term support at $1,170. This is the time to take profits as gold price has reached a top and is expected to hit a marginal new high soon and reverse back to $1,120-$1,100.
Green line - resistance
Gold price remains above the Ichimoku cloud. The price is below the green trend line and has broken the bullish channel. Gold price is vulnerable, but a bounce is justified from current levels specially if the price breaks above the green trend-line resistance at $1,177.
Gold price is heading towards our target of the Ichimoku cloud at $1,200. The Stochastic oscillator is entering overbought levels and this is a sign for gold bulls to be of cautious. I expect gold to reverse from higher levels and move back towards $1,120-$1,100. So, this is not a good time to buy.
