First support at $1,973
Gold attempted a breakout above its multiyear consolidation recently however it has re-integrated within the range after hitting $2,135 in December. Interestingly, it has managed to register highest monthly and yearly closes which is a signal for prevalence in the uptrend. Post this re-integration, Gold has stabilized above the 200-DMA and formed a small base.
Recent pivot low at $1,973 is crucial support. Defence of this would be essential for averting deeper down move.
