Gold price has broken through the important resistance of $1,350-60 and is now trading above $1,400. Trend remains bullish and although the short-term oscillators are in overbought territory, we could see this upward move continue higher towards $1,440 before a meaningful pull back.

Gold price has reached the 100% extension of the first upward move from $1,270. Price could continue higher towards the 161.8% Fibonacci extension. Trend remains bullish and even a pull back towards $1,360 would not be a surprise. However at this point such a pull back would be considered as a back test of the break out area. The recent rise in price has been vertical. If price stabilizes and creates a $10-$15 trading range this would be a bullish sign. If price pulls back below the break out area this would be a bearish sign. So far bulls remain in control and have the upper hand.
