Further Development
Analyzing the current trading chart of Gold, I found that the sellers are in control today and there is the breakout of the Mini Pitchfork channel, which is good indication for the further downside.
Watch for selling opportunities on the rallies wit the downside targets at the price of $1,835 and $1,814.
Key Levels:
Resistance: $1,867
Support levels: $1,835 and $1,814.
