February gold futures closed up $36.00 an ounce at $1,700.10 yesterday. Prices closed near the session high yesterday, hit a fresh six-week high and scored a big and bullish "outside day" up on the daily bar chart, whereby the high was higher and low was lower than the previous session's trading range, with a higher close. The bulls gained fresh, solid upside technical momentum yesterday. The gold market rebounded from lower levels in the wake of a "dovish" FOMC statement from the Federal Reserve that sunk the U.S. dollar index and rallied crude oil prices. Gold bulls have the solid overall near-term technical advantage. A four-week-old uptrend is still in place on the daily bar chart. Bulls' next upside technical breakout objective is to produce a close above solid technical resistance at the December high of $1,767.10. Bears' next near-term downside price objective is closing prices below chart support at $1,640.00. First resistance is seen at $1,720.00 and then at $1,725.00. First support is seen at $1,685.00 and then at $1,675.00.
Wyckoff's Market Rating: 7.0.
