Gold Testing Double Bottom – Is it Good Time to Jump in?
Gold is holding right above the strong support level of $1,216. The same level supported gold on Oct 18, which makes it a double bottom...
The precious metal GOLD eased on Wednesday, sliding off a more than the three-month peak during the New York session, urged by a strong dollar. Especially after the US Conference Board reported a consumer confidence of 137.9 vs. the forecast of 136.3. The unexpected jump in the US household sentiment says a lot about economic growth, which, as a result, is being reflected in the demand for dollar.
Looking at the technical side, gold is holding right above the strong support level of $1,216. The same level supported gold on October 18, which makes it a double bottom level.
