Gold Sell-Off Continues

For a second day Gold posts significant losses. Today, so far, Gold is trading at $1,126.70, losing as much as $13.70 (1.20%). Lowest so far was the dip below $1,124. Partly, the sell-off is due to a stronger US dollar (EURUSD is currently trading at 1.1370) and due to technical resistance at $1,167 indicating a change of trend (see chart below).

Note that with the opening of the US trading session in about 30 minutes Gold may see a stronger sell wave if US markets open with a gap up as rumored along with Chinese stock market.
