Gold price forecast 2nd week April 2018

Weekly Gold forecast

Last week gold price traded in small range but ended on a positive note. Major recovery in gold came after Non farm employment data came weak and dollar index gave a slide. Market reacted and even Dow Jones slashed more than 500 points within some hours.

This week major focus will be on developing trade war between US and China. Market will wait for either side signal to react and investor may find gold attractive if US or China impose anymore duty/tariff on each other .

A good support on gold price stands at 1298$, Once this base is out and traders manage to close below this level. Then expect more pressure in gold prices upto 1275$ – 1250$ this week.

A good resistance on gold price stands at 1366$, If traders take this hurdle out and manage to close above our resistance. Then expect gold prices upto 1392$ – 1423$.

Weekly Gold forecast conclusion: Gold trend is flat for upcoming week, Dollar Index will influence major trend for upcoming week.
