Gold remains vulnerable despite yesterday’s recovery. The yellow metal has traded through the $1800.0 handle. The break of this support sets the scene for an extension lower towards the next key support at $1784.4, the Jan 28 low. Last week’s breach of $1848.8, 76.4% of the Jan 28 - Mar 8 rally, confirmed a resumption of the downtrend. Initial resistance has been defined at $1858.8, the May 12 high ahead of the 20-day EMA at $1873.4.
