SINGAPORE: Spot gold may retest a resistance at $1,810 per ounce, a break above which could lead to a gain into $1,815-$1,825 range.

The metal failed twice to break a support at $1,795.

The failures suggest the completion of a wave c from $1,824.75.

Indeed, the whole correction from $1,833.65 could have completed.

Only a fall below $1,795 could confirm the extension of the wave c towards its ultimate target of $1,785.
