Gold and Silver charts: bears remain on top

Gold chart pattern


The daily bar chart pattern of Gold faced strong resistance from the 'Support/Resistance zone' between 1230 & 1240, and dropped sharply below its 20 day and 50 day EMAs.

After touching an intra-day low of 1196 on Tue. Nov 13, gold's price has rallied above its 20 day and 50 day EMAs. Note the sliding volumes, hinting that the rally may soon run out of steam.

Incidentally, gold's price is almost a mirror-image of the US Dollar index, which spiked to 97.50 on Nov 12 but dropped to 96 on Nov 19 - triggering the rally in gold's price. 

Daily technical indicators are looking neutral to bullish. MACD is trying to cross above its '0' line after falling briefly below it. RSI has just moved above its 50% level after falling below it. Slow stochastic has bounced up smartly from its oversold zone and has moved above its 50% level. 

Gold's price is trading below its sliding 200 day EMA in a bear market. Expect it to face resistance from the 'Support/Resistance zone' once again.

On longer term weekly chart (not shown), gold’s price closed just below its 20 week EMA, and well below its 50 week and 200 week EMAs in long-term bear territoryWeekly technical indicators are looking slightly bearish.
