Gold Price Prediction for October 23, 2017
Gold prices moved lower on Friday, whipsawing after testing the 10-day moving average and closing near the session lows. A stronger than expected Canadian CPI helped weigh on gold prices. Support on gold is seen near the October lows at 1,260. Momentum is neutral as the MACD (moving average convergence divergence) index prints near the zero-index level with a flat trajectory which reflects consolidation.
