Technical outlook:

Gold prices dropped from $1,557 through $1,480/82 levels earlier in 5 waves, labelled as (1) on the charts here. The subsequent consolidation could be a potential A-B-C, out of which Waves A and B terminated at $1,524/25 and $1,483 respectively. If the subsequent price action breaks above $1,511, it would be considered a confirmation that Wave C is underway towards $1,528/40 levels going forward. As an alternative scenario, if prices break below $1,483 first, gold would continue drifting lower indicating that a meaningful top is in place at $1,524/25. It remains to be seen how price action develops in the next few trading sessions but please be prepared for a surprise rally towards above-mentioned levels before bears are back in the market. A trade setup description video has been posted below, explaining the above scenarios.

Trading plan:

Short around $1,528/40, stop at $1,560, target is open.

Good luck!
