In line with expectations, the yellow metal continued to lose value against the buck yesterday, in the process crossing the weekly S1 at 1,310.77. From a daily perspective, the downfall should continue today as well.
But in order to do that, the exchange rate has to break through a combined support set up by the weekly S2 at 1,301.03 and the monthly PP at 1,300.04.
The fact that this barrier is located at the psychological level and also coincides with the bottom edge of a descending channel suggests that a rebound might happen at least in the short run.
However, even in the case of a rebound recovery of the gold is unlikely to last for long due to pressure from the slipping 55- and 100-hour SMAs.
