Gold remains vulnerable and Wednesday's move lower confirmed a resumption of the current downtrend. The sell-off resulted in a break of $1848.8, 76.4% of the Jan 28 - Mar 8 rally. This paves the way for a move towards $1821.1 next, the Feb 11 low. Sights are also set on $1780.4, the Jan 28 low. On the upside, $1909.8, the May 5 high, is seen as the initial firm resistance. A break would signal a possible short-term reversal.
