Gold price remains in a short-term downtrend. The price, as I mentioned in previous posts, is in danger of falling towards $1,260 or even $1,220. It seems that this correction has started. Support at $1,270-75 is critical for the short-term trend.
Red line = support trend line
Gold price is breaking below support trend line, and the Ichimoku cloud is now above the current price on the 30-minute chart. Short-term trend is bearish and, I believe, we are heading towards the 38% retracement just above $1,250. I prefer to stay neutral and avoid trading current price action as there is no clear structure.
On the daily chart that I posted yesterday I expect price to move towards the tenkan-sen support near $1,265. If we break below this level we should expect price to move towards $1,220. Trend is short-term bearish.
