Gold remains in a clear short-term downtrend and this week’s extension reinforces a bearish condition. Support at $1727.8, Aug 22 low has been breached to confirm a resumption of the bear cycle. The break lower paves the way for weakness towards $1681.0, the Jul 21 low and a key bear trigger. A break would confirm a resumption of the broader downtrend. On the upside, initial firm resistance has been defined at $1765.53, high Aug 25.
