Gold Price Forecast: XAU/USD to see further weakness to $1,900, potentially $1,850 – Credit Suisse

Economists at Credit Suisse analyze Gold (XAU/USD) technical outlook.

XAU/USD to find a major floor at the 200-DMA at $1,850/49

Gold is moving below support from its 100-DMA and with a minor top in place we see scope for further weakness to price and retracement support at $1,900/1,890, potentially as far as the 200-DMA at $1,850/49. 

Our bias would then be for a major floor to be found here for strength back to $1,985 initially, then a retest of major resistance at the $2,063/2,075 record highs. We still stay biased to an eventual break to new record highs later in the year.
