Gold price bounced off $1,180 today but could not break inside the Ichimoku cloud. Resistance is found by the cloud and by the intermediate high at $1,200. The short-term trend is bearish. Price below the cloud is a bearish sign.

The weekly chart remains fully bearish since the price is below the Ichimoku cloud and below the kijun-sen (yellow line). Gold price is below resistance at $1,222. Gold price has found support at $1,180, so a break lower would give me another selling signal.
