Weekly Overview

Weekly closing looks like "Doji" which is one of the earliest signals of reversal.Gold could move lower to retest weekly support before a new high. The minimum correction level is 1219-21 and maximum at 1201.Movement below 1230 will give more confidence. The overall trend is still bullish, and longer term gold target is 1271-75 which is also the weekly trend resistance.

Alternately: if gold fail to give reversal, move higher and close above 1249-51 in a weekly candle. This will be the confirmation of trend continuation and could take gold directly towards 1271-75 area.
