Charts to keep an eye out

Gold’s price continued to rise yesterday, cut through the 4800 (S1) resistance line, now turned to support without even blinking and is now aiming for the 5000 (R1) resistance barrier. We intend to maintain the bullish outlook for the precious metal’s price for as long as the upward trendline guiding remains intact. Despite the strong bullish market sentiment, gold’s price is clearly at overbought levels as the price action has breached the upper Bollinger band and the RSI indicator has surpassed the reading of 70, hence we issue a warning for a possible correction lower of gold’s price. We set the $5000 (R1) as the next possible target for the bulls while for a bearish outlook, which currently seems remote, we would require gold’s price to fall, breaking the 4800 (S1) line, continue lower to break also the prementioned upward trendline in a first signal of an interruption of the upward movement and continue even lower to break the 4550 (S2) level.

AUD/USD edged higher yesterday and during today’s Asian session, yet for the time being seems to remain well within the boundaries set by the 0.6800 (R1) resistance line and the 0.6620 (S1) support level. As long as the pair respects the prementioned levels, we intend to maintain our sideways movement bias yet also warn about the bullish tendencies of the pair, given the rise of the RSI indicator. Should the bulls remain in control, we may see the pair breaking the 0.6800 (R1) resistance line and start aiming for the 0.6940 (R2) resistance level. Should the bears take over, we may see AUD/USD breaking the 0.6620 (S1) support line and continue lower aiming for the 0.6375 (S2) support level.
