  • On the commodity front, the trend condition in Gold remains bullish and the yellow metal traded to a fresh cycle high yesterday. This confirms an extension of the uptrend and maintains the price sequence of higher highs and higher lows. Moving average studies remain in a bull mode position - reflecting the uptrend. The focus is on $1963.0 next, 76.4% of the Mar - Sep 2022 bear leg. Support to watch lies at $1884.1, the 20-day EMA.
  • In the Oil space, WTI futures have pulled back from their recent highs. Key short-term resistance is located at $82.66, the Jan 18 high.
