Strategy for Gold on FOCM meeting

Today all eyes are on FOCM meet to be held. Not only commodity and Gold but Forex and stock market will have implication of the meeting which is to be held today or tomorrow(Source: Business Standards). Anticipating strategies for gold, all eyes are on tapering of bonds by fed. Many experts believe that Fed will come up with taping of bond buying program. If it happens gold will loose value globally.

Technical

An open up candle followed by a bearish engulfing had given a clear indication of a possible bearish trend 28k &26K are the good supports as seen in technical charts. More clarity will be seen after fed's bond buying strategy.  

Gold what's next??

I never expected gold above 32,500. Since June-July I am giving regular updates on my blog on a special request. After formation of a  expanding triangle, gold had reached 34,500 testing a new height. After a breakout of 32,500. The sustainability was not seen , after a negative reversal gold reached its climax; starting a correction.

Know we have a question where do gold find its support. Currently we have 2 major supports and 2 trend-lines. But 30,000(50%; fib) is found to be next level, if it fail. We can see gold 27,800-28,000 as a powerful support.

 Fibonacci levels

Major SAR

Gold can be a good investment if we witness any reversal at 30,000 levels. We may see gold again touching 34,500/ testing new heights.
