Gold Technical Analysis: In a bullish consolidation phase
|- Gold is trapped in a narrow range of $1,220 to $1,230, as the bulls are likely having a breather, having pushed the metal to a 2.5-month high of $1,233 last week.
- Also, the consolidation is happening in the positive zone above the six-month-long falling trendline. It is worth noting that the trendline hurdle was breached last week.
- A break above $1,230 (upper edge of the range) would signal a revival of the rally from the Oct. 8 low of $1,183 and could yield a rally to $1,248 (200-day exponential moving average).
- On the downside, a daily close below the 10-day EMA would weaken the bullish case.
