Banks and brokerage houses have reduced their estimates for the gold prices for the year and 2019. The commodity has touched the 19-month lows in the month of August, touching the lower levels of $1159.96.

Levels of $ 1239.59 - $1240.54 now seem to play a small resistance zone at the back of the formation of triple top on the charts; while major support levels are expected around $1226.37 - $1223.53. Levels of $1217- $1215 can play key support zones for trend reversal.
