Last night gold fell to around the 1723 mark.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tThis will depend, however, on breaches of the 1752 and 1791 levels which have both withstood recent testing and represent Fibonacci <span>retracements<\/span> from the principal September range of 1920-1583. Moore remains bullish but suggests breaking 1752 and 1791 is key.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tIf not, Moore sees support at 1712, and thereafter at 1694 and 1663.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tBarclays Capital technical analysts note the US dollar has been net stronger of late and gold has reverted to trading in line with risk assets. A current lack of physical demand has meant limited gains and suggests the downside looks more fragile in the near term.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tBarclays remains positive beyond the short term nevertheless, suggesting the macro environment is supportive and investment demand will strengthen with ongoing purchases from central banks.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tAlso citing Fibonacci, Barclays sees support around 1600 as gold is looking to a move towards 1800 before the 1840 level comes into play, predict the analysts. This Fibonacci level is currently &ldquo;shielding&rdquo; the 1921 high.<\/p>\n<p>\n\tNear term Barclays sees support at 1700-1725 and resistance at 1775-1803 while remaining medium term bullish.<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/www.fnarena.com\/ckfinder\/userfiles\/images\/1_Barclays.jpg\" style=\"width: 553px;height: 434px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong>Technical limitations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n\t<strong><span style=\"font-style: italic\">If you are reading this story through a third party distribution channel and you cannot see charts included<\/span>, <em>we <span><span>apologise<\/span><\/span>, but technical limitations are to blame.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\n\t<em>Find out why <span>FNArena<\/span> subscribers like the service so much: &quot;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.fnarena.com\/index4.cfm?type=dsp_newsitem&amp;n=29EB960D-9DFF-C00E-7F6B464E5D52E250\">Your Feedback (Thank You)<\/a>&quot; &#8211; Warning this story contains unashamedly positive feedback on the service provided.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Technical analysts provide their latest views on gold.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[22],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.fnarena.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59264"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.fnarena.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.fnarena.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.fnarena.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.fnarena.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=59264"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/staging.fnarena.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/59264\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.fnarena.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=59264"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.fnarena.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=59264"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.fnarena.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=59264"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
