This has triggered a sharp bearish move, which is by  now reflected in a 6,000 pips decline. Gold has already seen two failed  attempts to drop below the $1,360 level, yet it currently seems that a  third attempt is impending.<\/p>\n<p>\u2022 The chart below is the spot gold 8-hour chart by ForexYard.<br \/>\n\u2022 The horizontal lines drawn on the chart represent the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.forexyard.com\/en\/price-support-levels\">support<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.forexyard.com\/en\/price-resistance-levels\">resistance<\/a> levels of gold trading.<br \/>\n\u2022 It can be seen that after gold has failed to breach through the $1,423  resistance level, it has fallen steadily, and reached as low as $1,363  an ounce.<br \/>\n\u2022 Currently, a bearish cross of the Slow <a href=\"http:\/\/www.forexyard.com\/en\/stochastic\">Stochastic<\/a> indicates that another bearish session might be impending.<br \/>\n\u2022 In addition, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.forexyard.com\/en\/moving-average-convergence-divergence-macd\">MACD<\/a> continues to point down and the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.forexyard.com\/en\/relative-strength-index-rsi\">RSI<\/a> continues to float below the 30-line, in the over-sold section. Both  indicating that the bearish move still has more room to go.<br \/>\n\u2022 The next significant support level is placed at $1,360 an ounce. If  gold falls below this level, it has the potential to reach $1,350, and  afterwards $1,340 an ounce \u2013 before today\u2019s trading ends.<br \/>\n\u2022 Nevertheless, in case that gold will fail to cross the $1,360 level, it might bounce back up, and reach $1,382 an ounce.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.forexyard.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/gold-07-01.bmp\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/www.forexyard.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/gold-07-01.bmp\" alt=\"\" width=\"590\" height=\"633\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.forexyard.com\/?zone_id=1398\" target=\"_blank\">Forex Market Analysis provided by ForexYard. <\/a><\/strong><\/em><em><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.forexyard.com\/?zone_id=1398\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u00a9 2006 by FxYard Ltd<\/p>\n<p>Disclaimer: Trading Foreign Exchange carries a high level of risk and                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  may           not             be                                        suitable                   for                   all                                                                investors.
