Gold Price Analysis: XAU/USD's daily chart shows indecision

Gold''s immediate bias is neutral with prices trading within Monday's range.
Monday's high is the level to beat for the bulls.

Omkar Godbole FXStreet Contributor

Gold created a long-legged Doji candle on Monday, implying indecision in the market.

The metal is currently trading near $1,890 per ounce. The immediate bias would remain neutral as long as prices are held within Monday's trading range of $1,864-$1,899.

A close above $1,899 would mean the period of indecision has ended with a bull victory. It would validate the dip demand near $1,864 observed on Monday and open the doors to $1,933 (Oct. 12 high resistance). Alternatively, acceptance under $1,864 would expose the Nov. 9 low of $1,850.

With risk assets cheering multiple positive news on the coronavirus vaccine front, the odds appear stacked in favor of a break below $1,864.
