Technical Needle Over Gold And ASX-Listed Gold Miners

Gold price is retracing back, with Gold spot correcting from its recent high of US$1437.20 (Day’s high on 3^rd July 2019). The retracement in gold is dragging down the gold miners, who enjoyed the recent gold rush to ascend.

XAU Daily Chart (Source: Thomson Reuters)

On the daily chart, the gold price dropped and reverted back twice from almost the same level. Post hitting the level of US$1438.99 on 25^th June 2019, gold retraced back, likewise, the gold price again rose to the level of US$1437.20 and retraced back.

The failure of gold to breach above the previous high of US$1438.99 suggests that US$1437.20 level is offering resistance to the gold price.

However, the gold price is currently trading above its 200, 100, and 50-day exponential moving average, which are at US$1299.92, US$1323.14, and US$1349.27 respectively. Any of the moving average mentioned above could support the gold price if the it were to correct further.

The primary support of gold is intact at the 100.0 per cent projected Fibonacci Series, which is projected from the points marked as 0,1,2 on the chart shown above. The 100.0 per cent projected level of US$1377.63 would act as the primary support, and investors should keep a close eye around the level as a break below or failure to do so would decide further price actions in gold.

ASX-listed Gold Miners on Charts:

The short-term moving average of 50-days could act as the secondary support for the share price of the company, and investors should monitor the level of A$1.131 to A$1.021, as a sustain in the range or break below would decide further price actions in it.

On a daily chart, the share price corrected by more than 50.0 per cent of the initial upside rally, which started from the level of approx. A$3.553 to the level of approx. Post correcting the share price of the company rose again and crossed its primary hurdle at A$4.903, which is now acting as support.

Presently, the share price is trending above its 200,100, and 50-days exponential moving averages, which are at A$4.559, A$4.638, and A$4.698 respectively.

Investor should monitor the level of A$4.903 as a break below and sustain above the level would decide further price actions. If, the price breach the level of A$4.903, the trio of moving averages could act as the second support.

The gold miners generally move in tandem with the gold prices; however, being an equity, the shares of the company hold unsystematic risk, and those unsystematic risk could sometime weight more than the underlying asset.

Such a behaviour causes divergence in the share price actions as compared to the underlying asset. Let us now look at the miners moving opposite to gold.
