Market sentiment has deteriorated, as illustrated by a slight reduction in gains on indices and a rise in yields. The dollar is also gaining. Interestingly, expectations of a hike from the ECB next week are growing. A hike from the ECB could increase the chances of a move from the Fed.
Gold has gained 0.5% today, which was not a big move, but it was a move above the important $1925 per ounce level. Nevertheless, gold is retreating from around the 100 EMA average (The 50 EMA also runs here). Currently, the key support for gold is 1910 at the Fibo measure of 23.6. Although gold's current declines are not large (around 0.1%), other metals are experiencing greater discounting. Platinum is losing 2%, but it is the pullback in gold that has led to such a move.
