Gold is trading lower, extending the pullback from last week’s high of $1807.9 (Aug 10). Recent gains saw price trade above trendline resistance drawn from the Mar 8 high. The break highlighted a potential reversal of the 5-month downtrend. However, the failure to follow through and the breach of support at $1754.4 Aug 3 low, signals a failed attempt at clearing the trendline. A deeper pullback would open $1711.7. Key resistance is $1807.9.
