Comex Gold price tested 1345$ last week and then gave a 20$ retraced from its peak . Gold finally gave a good comfortable close above 1331$ . This week we have European central bank monetary policy , we are expecting a minor hike of 25 bps as rates are at 0% since so long . We are expecting ECB may follow Fed . Fed has cleared already that we should expect atleast 3 hikes this year . We think ECB might give 2-3 hikes this year too .
