Gold is firmer today but remains below Friday's high of $1875.7. Last week's pullback has resulted in a test of support at $1832.6, Jan 20 low. A clear break of this level would strengthen a bearish case and undermine recent bullish price development. Furthermore, this would suggest scope for a move towards the key support at $1804.7, Jan 18 low. On the upside, clearance of $1875.7 would instead be bullish and open $1882.0 initially.
