Gold GC-Mini Market Analysis
The Gold GC-mini after testing a record peak has spent this past week in a tumultuous correction, showing that even the strongest bull trends need to «reset». The Daily GC mini chart shows a classic scenario of an extreme parabolic wedge top, a deep retracement, and now, a market struggling to determine if this is a major trend reversal or just a deep pullback within a massive bull trend. Bulls are still firmly in control as evidenced in no lower lows in the overall structure.
Keep watch on the psychological $5,000 level, bears want to make this resistance, bulls want to make this support. The sharp-eyed trader will be looking for failure by either bulls and/or bears to inform their decisions.
