Gold price started the week close to where it ended. Price pulled back below $1,700 critical support but until the end of the week price managed to reclaim the $1,700-$1,710 support area. Gold bulls remain in control of the trend and could try to push price to new higher highs once again.

The weekly RSI continues to provide a weekly bearish divergence. This does not mean that price cannot go towards $1,770-80. This is key resistance now. Support remains key at $1,700 and breaking below it will increase chances of a move towards $1,650-30. Currently I prefer to be neutral and look for shorting opportunities when and if price makes new highs close to $1,780.
