Gold was trading in positive territory this morning, but not by enough to take it out of its ‘danger zone’. Yesterday morning it hit a low of $2,625 before the unexpected, sharp sell-off in the US dollar related to Trump Tariff speculation, gave all dollar-denominated commodities a lift. It pushed up towards $2,650 before falling back below $2,620 just before the open of the New York Stock Exchange. The sell-off corresponded with a rally in the dollar. While it’s encouraging to see gold push higher today, the bulls should be concerned that it seems unable to build enough upside momentum to break above $2,650, as witnessed by a flattening in the daily MACD. This makes it highly vulnerable to any fresh selling pressure. Meanwhile, silver is just about hanging in above $30 per ounce. It too looks vulnerable to another bout of selling. But it has the advantage over gold in that its daily MACD is starting from very oversold levels.
