FX.co ★ Gold price remains vulnerable to a multi week decline

Gold bulls were once again unable to hold price above $1,950-$1,900 zone. For the third consecutive month bulls are trading below $1,900 and the price action of the previous two months is not promising for bulls.

August looks like it marked a top. We are not saying that the longer-term view for Gold is not bullish, but currently and for the next few weeks at least we expect Gold price to make a correction. We consider this correction as a buying opportunity and traders need to be patient for a good entry in long positions.

With price again below the Ichimoku cloud, most technical indicators favor the bearish scenario for at least a correction towards $1,800-$1,750 area. Bulls will need to recapture $1,950 in order for us to change our view. Support at $1,850 recent low remains key for the short-term trend. Breaking it will push price towards $1,800.
