Some Near-Term Chart Damage in April Gold
April gold futures on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange on Tuesday fell to a fresh five-week low of $537.80 an ounce. Prices are presently down around $35.00 an ounce from the early-February contract high of $579.50. Near-term technical damage has been inflicted with the recent sell off. If the bears can push and close April gold below Tuesday's low of $537.80, then they would gain more downside technical momentum and look to challenge the late-December "reaction low" of $496.50 an ounce. There is also major psychological support located at $500 an ounce. For the bulls to regain some near-term technical momentum, they will have to produce a close in April gold above chart resistance at $560.00. Resistance for April gold is located at $550.00, at $555.00 and then at $558.00 an ounce. Support is seen at $542.00, at $540.00 and then at this week's low of $537.80.
