Gold: A break above 1806 signals further gains to 1815
Gold holding strong support at 1781/78 targets 1788/90 with minor resistance at1794/96 but eventually we should test strong 100-day moving average resistance at1803/05. A high for the week could be seen here so it is worth profit taking on longs. However, a break above 1806 signals further gains to 1815.
Good support at 1781/78 again today. Longs need stops below 1775. Next downside target & buying opportunity at 1765/61. Longs need stops below 1757. Silver holding strong support at 2610/00 targets 2650/60, perhaps as far as 2685/95 into next week. A break above 2705 is the next buy signal. Read more...
