Gold price as expected got rejected at the upper trading range boundary and fell back towards cloud support. Short-term support at $1,277 was broken but not the important $1,272 one. Trend remains neutral. Gold price could continue lower towards $1,272 and as long as it closes above it, we could see $1,300.

Gold price is moving inside a trading range with a positive slope. However the entire price formation is corrective and not impulsive, implying that eventually we should expect price break below support and make a new low towards $1,250-$1,210 area.

Gold price got rejected at the daily Kumo (cloud) yesterday and price fell below the tenkan-sen. This is a bearish sign. As long as price is above short-term important $1,272 support, we could even see a bounce towards $1,300 or at least a test of the daily cloud at $1,291. However if price breaks support, we should expect a sharp move towards $1,250.
