Blue trend line - resistance (broken)Gold price broke above the 4 hour Ichimoku cloud turning short-term trend to bullish again. Price as we said yesterday was challenging the cloud resistance. After the CPI report came out, Gold pulled back towards the 4-hour kijun-sen support at $1,317 and bounced back up strongly above the cloud. The reversal together with the weakening of the Dollar has given Gold a big push higher towards $1,350.
Magenta - long-term resistanceBlue line - long-term support
Long-term trend remains bullish as price is above the Kumo (cloud). Gold price is back above the long-term resistance. This is a very bullish sign. Gold bulls need to hold above this level and continue higher towards $1,390 which is the next target. Support is at $1,335 and next at $1,326. A break below these levels, will be very bearish for Gold. So far bulls remain in control.
