Weakness in global markets threatens gold's well being

In tandem with our expectations, gold dropped below $1,910. Significant developments accompanied this movement on the daily chart; RSI, MACD, and Stochastic continued to form bearish structures, and ADX began to rise (indicating a growing trend). As a result, we remain bearish on gold in the short term and expect it to test the $1,900 level. If it breaks below this level, it will further bolster a bearish case. In such a scenario, we will watch the support near $1,893 and its ability to hold selling pressure. If it is also broken to the downside, we expect gold to drift toward $1,875. As a result, we still wait for a better price before committing more capital to the asset.

Illustration 1.03 shows the daily charts of various indices. We would like to reiterate that weakness in global markets continues to present an obstacle to higher prices in gold as investors might be forced to sell it in order to cover losses elsewhere (this was a widespread phenomenon during 2022).
