It is seen to be trading at around $1,849 at this point in writing. Gold is expected to remain under pressure heading for $1,838 at least.
Gold continues to unfold its counter-trend rally towards $1,920 going forward. It has completed the first leg at around $1,870, while the second wave is expected to drop through the $1,820 levels respectively. Its final rally is then expected to push through $1,920 levels, which is the Fibonacci 0.618 retracement of the above drop.
Gold prices are working upon the larger degree downswing between $1,998 and $1,786 as marked on the 4H chart here. The Fibonacci 0.618 retracement is seen passing close to $1,920. Hence, the probability remains high for a bearish price action if prices manage to reach there. Traders prepare for a short-term rally through $1,920 that will be followed by a bearish reversal.
