Gold Forecast Video for 12.02.24 by Bruce Powers
The downward pressure on gold continues as it tests support at the lower boundary line of a small symmetrical triangle. This has put gold in a precarious position, sitting right on a support zone. Following a swing low in mid-January, gold attempted to move higher, reaching a 20-Day high last Thursday. However, the advance was quickly reversed the next day as supply increased, signaling a bearish trend.
A bearish signal will be triggered on a drop below this week’s low of 2,015, showing a breakdown from recent consolidation and potentially testing lower prices. The 78.6% Fibonacci retracement remains at 1,998, with a more significant price zone down around 1,979 and 1,973. Potential support around the 200-Day Moving Average (MA) is at 1,966, suggesting it would be tested again as support if approached.
If gold continues to hold above recent support and moves higher, the first bullish signal occurs on a rally above this week’s high of 2,045. It is important for there to be a daily close above that price level to confirm strength unless there is a clear sharp rally that takes gold well above 2,045.
Insight: The article suggests that the current position of gold is precarious, with potential for both a bearish breakdown or a bullish rally. The support and resistance levels mentioned provide important areas for traders to keep an eye on. Additionally, the analysis of moving averages and Fibonacci retracement levels adds another layer of technical insight for gold traders.
