Gold tumbled yesterday, retracing all of Tuesday's gains and increasing the likelihood that the break out move was a "fake out". Gold is now back within the down trend channel and the bulls need to step up to the plate here and push the price higher - with strong support at $1210-$1225, the base is there to potentially build from.

However, the bears will be sensing blood here and will want to press home their advantage and take gold back below $1200 - today could be a critical day for the yellow metal.

Equities are correcting, which should help the bulls, particularly as the dollar remains weak and oil is rallying. However, if gold cannot find buyers in this favourable environment, the outlook is dire.

Support can be found at $1223-$1227, $1217, $1212, $1200-$1207 and $1180. A break of $1180 would have serious bearish implications for gold and suggest a decline to $1000-$1050 in the short term.

Resistance can be found at $1230-$1235, $1245, $1250-$1255, $1268-$1270, $1277-$1280 and $1291-$1295. A break above $1270 would suggest an end to the short term down trend, though it would take a break of $1300 to suggest a more significant rally was developing.
