Gold failed to find happiness in the north
On the daily chart of gold, the bulls failed to hold the quotes above the important level of $1280. As a result, there is a risk of the correction towards the convergence zone $1250-1256 and then towards the intersection of the lower border of the upwards trading channel and upper border of the long-term downward trading channel.
On the hourly chart of gold, the Bump and Run-Reversal pattern has been realized. A break of the diagonal support of the initial stage followed by the rollback of the quotes towards $1270 may result in the restoration of the downtrend.
Recommendation: SELL $1270 SL $1285 TP $1240.
