Gold reacted positively to the weak NFP reading on Friday, briefly taking out
the $1300 level. The metal remain on the front foot today with the 50-dma acting
as the upside target at $1303.1. A break above here is needed to open the Mar 1
high and the 21-dma at $1315.3/1311.7. To reignite downside momentum bears need
to take out the Mar 5 low at $1280.9 to open the Feb 21 ytd lows at $1276.8 and
the 38.2% retracement.
