Gold 15/07 - Preparig for a new high ?
Updated
The gold price was stimulated by the easing inflation data from the US last week, breaking through the post-non-farm resistance of 2391(2) and touching a four-week high of 2424. Referring to CME gold futures' open interest data, the total number of OI last Friday reached the highest level of 540k contracts, which is above the 530k contracts at the time of the record high of 2450 in May, a bullish sign as more funds are now attracted by the gold market. Not many important economic figures are scheduled to be released this week. Let's see if the price can stay above 2391 this week. The longer the price remains at around 2400, the more investors will be ready for a new high.
1-hr Chart > The price of gold is still running in the ascending channel (1), originating from the end of June. After breaking through the resistance (2) last Thur, the high and low levels in the past 48 hours have formed a side-way channel (3). Without any critical economic data this week, we can take advantage of the 2319-2425(3) range at the beginning of this week. It must be noted that a new round of selling will trigger if the price clears the support of 2391(2), and the downside target can be set around 2358-60(4).
Daily Chart > The range of 2277-2431(7) now dominates as the price trades above 2380. The Cup & Handle (6) pattern is yet to be confirmed. If the gold price can clear the resistance (6) in the next two weeks, a new round of M-T buying will begin.
