FX.co ★ Forecast and trading recommendations on Gold for February 11, 2015

The yellow metal again ended lower at the previous session amid the strong US dollar. Today, the focus has shifted to the Euro group meeting. In the recent days, the precious metal lost its momentum following the strong US economic data and weaker Chinese data. The same repeated again at the previous session. The stronger US data goves hope that the US Federal Reserve will raise the interest rates earlier than later. The metal has been taken support between $1,230.00 and $1,228.00.

The weekly key support level exists at $1,216.00. Until the prices close and the metal trades below $1,266.00, use every rise to sell. Intraday resistance exists at 1252.00. In case if the prices manage to breach above 1252.00, bulls can challenge 1255.00, 1264.00, and 1266.00.
