Gold 4-hour chart:

Gold prices have retreated for four consecutive days, which itself is a reason to suspect mean reversion could be just around the corner. But the pullback has also found support around the September 12th high and weekly S1 pivot. If prices can hold above yesterday’s low then the bias is for a retracement higher towards 1760, near the weekly pivot point and last week’s VPOC (volume point of control). Whether prices can continue higher above 1760 is likely to be whether the FOMC minutes are surprisingly dovish, so equally open to the potential of a lower high forming below or around 1760 – after an initial bounce from current levels.
