The risk-off assets are in precarious technical postures as we head into the final trading session of the week (i.e.- with the weekly candlesticks finalized at 4 pm today). /GC (gold futures) starts the early trading session cracking below the 1466ish resistance level & ideally needs to snap back above to close the week above that level & keep the potential RSI divergence intact.
GLD (gold ETF) heads into the final trading session of the week just above the key 137ish gap support/bottom of the 3-month consolidation/trading range so how it closes the week today could provide some clues as to the next near-term & possibly intermediate-term trend.
