The Gold price is in a bullish trend as long as the price is above the Ichimoku cloud. However, the price remains in a sideways neutral trend for the last few weeks as the price is trapped between $1,365 and $1,300. Last weeks rejection and reversal at $1,365 was not a good sign. However, bulls have hopes of retesting this level as long as they remain above $1,340-33 area. Break this support and we go to $1,320-$1,300 area. Break above $1,350-65 area and we go to $1,400-$1,450.
