FX.co ★ Gold: deeper drop in play

XAU/USD Downside Continuation Pattern!

The price of Gold dropped to new lows after failing to stay above the 1,733 former low which represented a downside obstacle. Now, it was traded at the 1,727 level at the time of writing below the 1,728 previous low. This level was seen as a downside obstacle as well. Dropping below this level signaled more declines.

Personally, I've drawn a downtrend line. As long as it stays under this line, Gold could drop towards new lows. The downtrend line stands as an upside obstacle.

Gold Trading Conclusion!

The breakdown below 1,728 and retesting this level signaled a downside continuation and it was seen as a selling opportunity.
