Gold Bulls Keeping Upside Momentum

Click the image to enlarge.

December Gold

December Comex gold futures prices were higher and near the session high Wednesday morning as the bulls are maintaining their upside near-term technical momentum amid a "safe-haven" bid that has been supporting prices for the past week. The gold market has appreciated by around $165 an ounce from the September 11 low of $739.80, basis December futures. Recent price action in December gold has also penetrated on the upside and negated downtrend lines drawn from the summertime highs. The next upside price objective for the gold market bulls is to push and close December futures prices above solid technical resistance at last week's high of $926.00 an ounce. A close above that level would open the door to a challenge of major psychological resistance at $1,000.00 an ounce. In mid-July the December gold contract came within 60 cents of the $1,000.00 mark, but could not reach it and then backed off into the September low. The gold market bears would gain fresh downside near-term technical momentum by pushing prices below a solid technical support zone located between $850.00 and $869.00 in the December futures contract. Gold traders will continue to monitor developments in the U.S. government financial market bailout process. Any solid progress on a final solution among U.S. legislators and the Treasury and Federal Reserve would likely be a bearish development for the precious yellow metal. Gold traders will also be keeping one eye on the crude oil market, with further gains in crude also being bullish for gold.
