According to the World Gold Council, Central banks added 37.3
tonnes of gold in December. Yellen’s testimony made gold move higher.
Gold successfully crossed resistance, at the level of 1,294.0. Gold continues its
rally for the sixth day. This is the first rally in a row of six
trading days in 2014. We can expect this strong run to end soon.Today traders focus on weekly unemployment data, retails sales and core retail sales. In the daily chart RSI reached overbought levels and hourly charts indicated
negative divergence. But the weekly chart indicates that some more upmove is left
for the coming days.

During Wednesday’s trading session, after making a high at the
level of $1,296.2, gold fell sharply and held its 21DEMA level in the hourly chart. Yesterday, we recommended selling with a target at $1,280, but it made a low at $1,284 and
took a turn. Today again we recommend selling. In the hourly chart when
the price made a high at the level of $1,287.40, RSI indicated an overbought signal at
81. Yesterday, when gold made a new high
at the level of $1,296.20, RSI dropped to the 66 levels, which clearly indicated a
negative divergence. We could expect the price will come down soon.

Support: 1,287, 1,284, 1,280.
