Gold: Key resistances and supports
The tool shows that gold is battling a significant upside hurdle at $1928.50, the confluence of Fibonacci 38.2% one-day and SMA10 four-hour, following a brief dip to $1923 region.
Acceptance above the latter could add extra legs to the bounce, as the bulls look to test the next critical hurdle at $1934.45, where the Fibonacci 23.6% one-week, SMA5 one-day and Fibonacci 23.6% one-day intersect.
Further north, powerful resistance awaits at $1945/46, which is the convergence of the SMA10 one-day, Fibonacci 38.2% one-month and one-week.
A firm break above the latter could yield a test of $1949 barrier, the SMA50 on four-hour.
To the downside, minor supports at $1920 (Fibonacci 61.8% one-day) and $1917 (previous week low) could slow the declines.
Meanwhile, a $1913 cushion is the level to beat for the bears. That level is the Fibonacci 23.6% one-month.
