Precious metals are trading a touch lower on the day after erasing earlier gains. Higher-than-expected reading of the French CPI this morning has taken some steam off the precious metals. Gold, as well as silver and platinum, may experience higher volatility following the release of European CPI reading for March (10:00 am BST) and US PCE reading for February (1:30 pm BST).
Taking a look at GOLD at the H1 interval, we can see that bulls attempted to push precious metal's price above the $1,985 resistance zone this morning. However, the attempt turned out to be a failed one and gold started to pull back. Should the ongoing pullback deepen, the first support to watch can be found in the $1,970 area, marked with previous price reactions as well as 50- and 200-hour moving averages. Overall, gold is trading sideways in a triangle pattern and direction of the next big move may be determined by direction of the breakout from this pattern.
