Gold hits a new low

0 26

XAUUSD seeks support
Chart showing gold price fall as it hits a fresh low and tests critical support.

Gold price fall continues as the metal slipped past the 2550 level to set a fresh low at 2535. A surge below 2600 forced buyers to close out, giving the opposite side a further fighting chance to test the 2500 zone. The new low at 2535 is critical support to prevent a bearish continuation. In the near term, a bullish divergence on the RSI could suggest a deceleration in the rally and could lead to a pullback if intraday sellers take profit.

GBPUSD breaks support
GBP/USD breaking key support and testing lower levels

The pound crashed through the previous firm support at 1.2850 to set a new low. A fall below the first hurdle of 1.2800 has prompted buyers to cover some of their bets. A continuous bearish run could trigger further momentum selling and send cable to 1.2500. A hold above 1.2700 is the first real test of buyers’ commitment, and a breakback above the said 1.2850 support is a significant level to keep the potential rebound valid.

AUDUSD remains pressured
AUD/USD under pressure near oversold territory.

Like most of the US dollar’s competitors, the Aussie failed to produce any gains in the past week. The pair has seen a slight bounce at 0.6440, but traders will wait to see if 0.6500 can be tested before a significant comeback can begin. As the RSI inches into oversold territory once again, 0.6400 is the immediate level to expect follow-up interest in the hope that the pair doesn’t collapse further.
