Spot gold encountered resistance at $1350/ounce. Retracement that respects $1300 and the rising trendline would suggest an advance to $1400. Crossover of 13-week Twiggs Momentum above zero indicates a primary up-trend, especially following a bullish divergence on the weekly chart. Breakout above $1400 would confirm the signal, but still seems a long way off.
The Gold Bugs Index is similarly testing resistance at 250. Breakout would signal an advance to 280. Again, bullish divergence on 13-week Twiggs Momentum and crossover above zero indicate a primary up-trend. Reversal below 210 is unlikely, but would warn of continuation of the down-trend.
