XAUUSD - Weaker on more weak China data, technical selling

Gold prices fell in midday US trading on Wednesday, the metal falling to a four-week low. Precious metals were pressured by another economic report from China that showed less consumer demand for goods and services, including metals.

Histogram-based selling also appeared midweek, as the short-term technical views on gold and silver have turned more bearish.

Kommentera:

Immediate support is the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level at 1903. A confirmatory close under this point exposes the midpoint at 1848. Otherwise, in the event of a turn higher, keep a close eye on the falling trendline from April. This could hold as resistance, maintaining the near-term downside focus.
