Gold traded sharply higher last Friday, clearing the 20- and 50-day EMAs. The yellow metal is firmer today. The rally strengthens the recent reversal and exposes the next key resistance at $1953.0, the Sep 1 high. Clearance of this level would further strengthen a bullish theme. Note that moving average studies still highlight a broader bear trend condition, however, prices would need to trade below Friday's low of $1868.8 to signal a reversal.
