Gold is still consolidating but remains vulnerable. The yellow metal sold off sharply early last week extending the move lower from $1877.2, the Nov 16 high. Price has also traded below the 20- and the 50-day EMAs. The clear breach of these averages suggests scope for a deeper pullback and attention is on the base of a bull channel at $1758.8. The channel is drawn off the Aug 9 low. Initial resistance is at $1815.6, the Nov 26 high.
