Gold was declining at mid-day on Thursday until suddenly a sharp surge occurred just after 12:00 GMT. The European Central Bank monetary policy statement at 12:15 was blamed for the move. Namely, the ECB revealed that it is hiking interest rates, but has invented a new tool, which basically amounts to a government bond buying bail out tool. Namely, inflation in the second largest economy of the world is set to continue. The news in turn caused a surge of safe haven assets like gold.

During the late hours of Thursday's trading and on Friday morning, the rate was testing the resistance of the 1,720.00 level. Meanwhile, support appeared to be found at 1,710.00.

If the commodity price surges above 1,720.00, take into account the 1,732.10 level and the zone, which surrounds the 1,750.00 mark. On the other hand, a decline below 1,710.00 could look for support in the 50 and 100-hour simple moving averages near 1,705.00 and 1,708.00, prior to reaching the 1,697.40/1,700.70 zone.
