Trading the Double Bottom – an Update on Gold’s Trading Signal
GOLD price is steady above a double bottom level of $1,310 as investors entered long positions after prices touched nearly one-week lows in the previous session. However, the swelling appetite for riskier assets capped bullion’s gains.
Most of the focus remains on the 10-year US treasury yield which is rising for the third straight day. It’s a risk-free investment and in case of higher returns, traders prefers to invest in US Treasuries rather than in gold.

On the technical side, the sideways pattern is still rolling, extending support to gold near $1,310 and resistance at $1,326. The Stochastics is just coming out of the oversold zone on the 4-hour chart, signaling a bullish bias of the market.
The idea is to stay bullish above $1,310 with a stop below $1,307 and take profit at $1,317 today.
Good luck!
