Prior Support Tested as Resistance

Updated
Gold continued its retreat, falling to new retracement lows before finding support at 1,929. Today's decline has completed a 61.8% Fibonacci retracement. It will become clear what happens next. Below today's lows, gold will move towards potential support near the lower uptrend line along the 127.2% Fibonacci extension of the descending ABCD pattern near 1,922. Alternatively, the retracement could be completed if the daily close rises above today's high of 1,939. The range is relatively tight today, reflecting slowing momentum.

Today's high of 1,939 is testing the resistance of the 100-day EMA and gold has broken below yesterday. The 100-day moving average has been seen as support or resistance in the market several times over the last 10 waeeks. I would like to keep an eye on it in the future. It is currently 1,941. Gold has not only broken below the 100-day moving average, it has also broken below the two inner uptrend lines, closing below them yesterday and likely to do so today.
