Gold Price Forecast – July 9, 2020

Gold Price Forecast

Gold finally broke higher out of the rectangle pattern that began to form in mid-April. A sustained close above $1790 confirmed the break high and the next objective around $1820 has already been met. The move up stalled at $1829.8, and today’s decline suggests a test of the $1790 breakout point might take place before the move up continues. A throwback to the breakout point of a pattern like a rectangle is common. Therefore, $1790 is expected to hold.

The long-term outlook for gold remains bullish and a close back above $1820 will clear the way for $1836 and higher. The next major objective above $1820 is $1912. This is a highly confluent wave projection and is in line with the rectangle’s $1909.6 target ($1789 + ($1789 – $1668.4) = $1909.6).

Gold – Break Higher Out of Daily Rectangle

Should gold close below $1790, odds for a continued rise during the next few days will be significantly dampened. Key near-term support is $1770. Settling below $1770 would reflect a bearish shift in sentiment and imply that the recent move above $1790 was a false break higher out of the rectangle pattern.
