On August 16th, the global price of gold experienced a slight decline, decreasing by $3.2 to reach $1,903.6 per ounce.
However, the decrease in precious metal prices is expected to be limited due to demand from major central banks worldwide. These banks are still actively adding gold to their reserves.
When looking at the 4-hour chart, it is evident that the price of gold has been on a downward trend for three weeks. Going forward, bulls aim to surpass the resistance level of $2,000 per ounce and achieve a close above it. On the other hand, bears' short-term objective is for futures prices to drop below the support level of $1,900.
