Gold price continues to trade sideways. It is still inside an upward sloping channel in an overlapping price structure. The bullish scenario is still alive for a move towards $1,120. Support at $1,070 is critical.
Gold price is trying to break above the short-term Ichimoku cloud in the 4-hour chart. The level of $1,097 is short-term resistance. If it gets broken, we can expect a re-test of a recent high at $1,110 and most probably a new higher high towards $1,120. Support is found at $1,070.
Gold price has made the first move for a stronger bounce. Has initially tested the kijun-sen (yellow line indicator) resistance and got rejected. The price held above the tenkan-sen (red line indicator). This is a bullish sign. However, bulls need to show more strength and break above the kijun-sen on a weekly closing basis in order to move the price towards the cloud resistance.
