Gold price has short-term resistance area at $1,289. Breaking above this level will open the way for a move towards the red trend line major resistance. This will be a short-term bullish signal. However medium-term trend remains bearish as long as we trade below $1,300 and any bounce is considered as selling opportunity. Support is at $1,280 and bulls do not want to see that level broken.
