Gold technical analysis for February 16, 2016

Gold price has made a pullback towards the 38% Fibonacci retracement, which was the minimum pullback target we recently gave, and successfully back tested the broken resistance levels of $1,190-$1,200. We may see another new upward move towards $1,300.

Gold price remains above the Ichimoku cloud. This pullback could be a part of a larger uptrend. Gold bounced off the 38% retracement and this could be the first sign of a bullish reversal. The level of $1,210 is short-term resistance and next one is seen at $1,220.

Gold price has back tested the weekly cloud and broken the upper wedge boundary resistance.This confirmation is very common with breakouts. So, now bulls want to see the uptrend resuming and breaking above short-term resistance of $1,210. a target is at $1,300. If however prices move below $1,190, we should expect $1,160-50 to be reached with a small stop at $1,180. I'm looking for a way to re-establish long positions if we see some signs of strength.The material has been provided by InstaForex Company - www.instaforex.com
