Gold short-term analysis – 13 May 2022
The daily gold chart remains between the lower blue and red bands in its bearish area. This weakness suggests an interesting hourly timeframe, given that the S1 pivot is holding as support. However, we note that the hourly trend-following indicators are in bearish formation and that the stochastic has turned down (black ellipses). If the S1 level fails to hold and the stochastic makes its way into the 20- area (blue arrow), the longer-term momentum will probably dominate the short-term bulls. However, we will pause for further price data analysis if the stochastic turns up.
