Gold has been underperforming as of late and remains below strong resistance at $1800 despite the ongoing bullish sentiment. Currently price is consolidating in a potential bear flag formation which often heralds a resumption of a downward move. In this case if sellers manage to break below the key support at $1760 then downward move may accelerate towards next support at $1725. In order to invalidate the bearish scenario, buyers need a break above the aforementioned resistance at $1800.
