COMMODITIES: Bullish Structure in Gold Intact After Hitting Fresh Record High

COMMODITIES
EM BulletCommoditiesEmerging Market NewsEnergy BulletsBulletMarketsFixed Income BulletsForeign Exchange Bullets

WTI futures are holding on to their latest gains. The move higher that started Sep 9, appears to be a correction. Recent weakness reinforced a bearish condition and note that moving average studies are in a bear-mode set-up, highlighting a dominant downtrend. A resumption of the downtrend would open $63.93 next, a Fibonacci projection point. Initial firm resistance to watch is at $70.97, the 20-day EMA. A bullish structure in Gold remains intact and the metal traded, once again, to a fresh all-time high, yesterday. Last week’s gains confirmed a resumption of the primary uptrend and marked the end of the recent period of consolidation - a pause in the uptrend. Moving average studies are in a bull-mode set-up, highlighting a clear uptrend and positive market sentiment. The focus is on $2600.0 next. Firm support lies at $2515.5, the 20-day EMA.

  • WTI Crude up $0.12 or +0.17% at $70.21
  • Natural Gas up $0.01 or +0.3% at $2.381
  • Gold spot down $3.94 or -0.15% at $2578.6
  • Copper up $1.3 or +0.3% at $428.7
  • Silver up $0.02 or +0.06% at $30.747
