COMMODITIES: Gold Trend Remains Bullish Following Sequence of Record Highs
WTI futures traded sharply higher Monday. This undermines the medium-term bearish condition and instead signals scope for a continuation higher near-term. The rally has exposed the next key resistance at $72.91, the Feb 11 high. Clearance of this level would strengthen the bullish theme. On the downside, initial firm support to watch lies at $69.01, the 20-day EMA. A breach of this level would signal a potential reversal. The trend condition in Gold is unchanged, it remains bullish. The latest rally reinforces current conditions and confirms a continuation of the primary uptrend. The rally also once again, highlights fresh all-time highs for the yellow metal. Sights are on the $3151.5, a Fibonacci projection. Support to watch lies at $3004.9, the 20-day EMA. A pullback would be considered corrective.
