Gold price continues to respect the cloud support in the 4 hour chart and once again bounces off the cloud. Gold price is at $1,788 having made a higher low at the cloud support at $1,777. Gold price faces a major resistance trend line now and breaking above it will be an important bullish sign.
Gold price is trading above the Kumo and above both the tenkan-sen (red line indicator) and the kijun-sen (yellow line indicator). Support is at $1,782, $1,778 and $1,772. Holding above the cloud is crucial for the short-term trend. Bulls need to show more signs of strength in order for more upside to be expected. So far short-term trend is in bull's control. Breaking above $1,790-$1,800 is important not only because of the major trend line, but because there we also find the upper cloud resistance in the Daily chart. A break out in a Daily time frame provides added support to the bullish scenario for a move towards $1,860 and higher.
