Blue line - horizontal resistance

Gold price is getting rejected for the third time at the blue horizontal trend line. This trend line has proven important over the last few months as it was tested and provided support or resistance several times. The rejection at this horizontal resistance is not necessarily bad. Gold price needs a pull back towards $1,740-20 area in order to regain momentum and gather more strength for an upward break above $1,760 and to finally reach $1,780 our first target after breaking $1,740. This pull back is a buying opportunity in Gold.
