Gold analysis for January 12, 2014

Overview :

Since our last analysis gold has been trading upwards. As we expected, the price tested the level of 1,230.89 in a volume below the average. According to the H4 time frame, we can observe that weak supply has entered the market, which is a sign that selling gold at this stage looks risky. I have placed Fibonacci retracement to find potential support levels and got Fibonacci retracement 38.2% at the price of 1,207.00 and Fibonacci retracement 61.8% at the price of 1,191.00. Be careful when selling gold and watch for potential buying opportunities on the lows.

R2: 1,227.25
