FX.co ★ Gold : analysis for December 05, 2014

Overview :

Since our last analysis, gold has been trading downwards. As we expected, the price tested the level of 1,197.00 in a volume below average. According to the daily time frame, we can obesrve low activity, which is a sign that buying looks risky. Our Fibonacci expansion 61.8% at the price of 1,197.00 is on the test. If the price breaks the level of 1,197.00, we may see the level of 1,191.00-1,186.00 is tested. I have placed Fibonacci retracement to find potential support levels and I got Fibonacci retracement of 38.2% at the price of 1,191.00 and Fibonacci retracement of 61.8% at the price of 1,172.00. My advice is to look for buying opportunities near the lows (after retracement). Any larger reaction from buyers may confirm further bullish continuation.
