Gold price remains pressured for the third consecutive day while extending the mid-week pullback from an all-time high. In doing so, the spot gold price (XAUUSD) retreats from a three-month-old ascending resistance line backed by the RSI’s U-turn from overbought territory. Apart from that, the US Dollar’s corrective bounce and receding bullish bias of the MACD signals also underpin odds favoring the bullion’s further profit booking. The same highlights a convergence of the 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and a three-week-long rising trend line, close to $2,395. It’s worth mentioning that the $2,400 threshold acts as immediate support while multiple peaks and troughs can challenge the sellers near $2,360 and $2,330-35. Above all, the precious metal bears remain off the table unless witnessing a daily closing beneath an ascending support line from early April, close to $2,300 by the press time. Also acting as the downside filter is the 100-EMA level of $2,296, a break of which will welcome bears with open arms.

On the contrary, Gold buyers seek a clear upside break of the three-month-old horizontal support-turned-resistance surrounding $2,431-34 to retake control. Following that, the precious metal’s run-up toward May’s peak of $2,450 and then to the recent swing high near $2,484 can’t be ruled out. However, the RSI conditions and the aforementioned multi-day-old resistance line, at $2,486 as we write, might challenge the XAUUSD bulls past $2,484. Following that, the bullion will be able to pierce the $2,500 round figure.

To sum up, further decline in the Gold price appears certain but the bullish trend is less likely to reverse.
