XAU/USD (GOLD) Technical Analysis

At the end of last week, the pair has started a powerful bearish rally, allowing the price to reach  the support at 1600 points. The price just made a correction of this rally and made a pullback on 1620 points.

I advise traders to trade only short positions as far as the price will be located below 1630 points.
A stay below 1620 points will strengthen our bearish sentiment. A break of 1600 points would provide a new sell signal for an extension of the bearish rally towards 1550 points.

In case of return above 1630 points, I would then advise traders to wait for a breakout of 1650 points before trading long positions.
