FX.co ★ Gold analysis for January 06, 2016

Overview:

Since our last analysis, gold has been trading upwards. The price tested the level of $1,092.72 in a high volume. In the daily time frame, the price has broken our 50 SMA. Selling at this stage looks risky. The intraday trend is upward, but the mid-term trend is still downward. I placed Fibonacci retracement to find resistance levels and got Fibonacci retracement 38.2% at the price of $1,102.00 and Fibonacci retracement 61.8% at the price of $1,136.00. Intrday buying positions are preferable.

Resistance levels:

R1: 1,080.70

R3: 1,086.90
