  • SUP 3: $54.80 - Low May 5
  • SUP 4: $54.03 - Low Apr 9 and a key support

The trend condition in WTI futures is unchanged - a bear cycle remains intact and the latest recovery is considered corrective. The pullback from the Sep 2 high highlights a possible reversal and the end of a corrective phase between Aug 13 - Sep 2. Initial resistance to watch is $66.03, the Sep 2 high. Key short-term resistance has been defined at $69.36, the Jul 30 high. A stronger resumption of weakness would open $57.71, the May 30 low.

GOLD TECHS: Bulls Remain In The Driver’s Seat

  • RES 3: $3783.2 - 1.618 proj of the Dec 30 ’24 - Apr 3 - 7 price swing

  • SUP 3: $3473.5 - 50-day EMA
  • SUP 4: $3311.6 - Low Aug 20  

Gold remains in a clear bull cycle and short-term pullbacks are for now, considered corrective. A fresh all-time high, once again last week, confirms a resumption of the primary uptrend and an extension of the sequence of higher highs and higher lows. The next objective is $3744.2, a Fibonacci projection. Initial firm support lies at $3577.9, the 20-day EMA. Note that MA studies are in a bull-mode position, highlighting a dominant uptrend.

  • SUP 2: $60.82 - Low May 30
  • SUP 3: $58.37 - Low May 5
  • SUP 4: $57.81 - Low Apr 9 and a key support   

Brent futures remain above the Sep 5 low. Recent short-term gains are for now, considered corrective and a bear cycle remains intact. Sights are on $64.50, the Jun 30 low, where a clear break would confirm a continuation of the bear leg. This would open $60.82, the May 30 low. Key short-term resistance has been defined at $71.93, the Jul 30 high. Clearance of this level is required to cancel a bear theme.
