Gold Price Analysis: Probes weekly resistance trendline above $1,700

  • Gold prices pause after the previous day’s run-up.
  • Buyers may aim for $1,739/40 on the break of resistance line.
  • Sellers await entries below the immediate rising trend line.

Following its surge from $1,660, Gold stays an inch closer to the weekly resistance trend line while taking rounds to $1,714 amid the early Thursday morning in Asia.

Not only a seven-day-old falling trend line but MACD histogram also questions the bullion’s further run-up beyond $1,719 trend line resistance.

As a result, sellers will look for entries below the immediate support line, currently around $1,697.50, while targeting to revisit the $1,660 area.

Meanwhile, an upside clearance of $1,719 will have to cross $1,739/40 horizontal area before questioning the mid-month top, also a multi-year high, near $1,748.

AUD/USD remains above 0.7200 after China's trade data

USD/JPY rebounds from the six-month low it touched below 153.00 earlier in the day and trades above 154.00 in the second half of the day.

Diesel’s record $100 warning: The oil shock hiding in plain sight

The Oil market may look calmer than it did a few months ago, but diesel is sending a very different message. The US diesel crack spread, the premium of ultra-low sulphur diesel futures over WTI, recently surged above $100 per barrel for the first time, reaching an intraday record of just over $102.00.
