Gold fluctuated between 1780-1815 last Friday. The price had kept edging up after the market opened near 1790. Once it broke the 1800-03 resistance at the European session, the price jumped to a 1-week high of 1815.6. But the buying failed to sustain, the price fell all the way to day-low 1780 thereafter. The day ended at 1790, up slightly by USD 1, day range at USD 35.

Surprisingly the pattern hasn’t changed much on the 1-hour chart. Overall the price is still bound by the 1780-1810 range, as mentioned last week. Until the price escapes the zone, stay with the range-bound strategy, with 1800-03(2) is the current S-T resistance.

The price has officially broken out from the upward trendline(3) on the daily chart, and it’s now entering a period of horizontal range-bound(4). Althought the price has visited 1780 a few times, the buying support so far seems strong as it has never been able to close below 1788 on the daily chart(5). A daily closing price below 1788 will be the first sign of it breaking the downside.
