Gold futures prices reached up over $1700 last night in trading as the broader financial markets panicked.
That rally represented a nice area to take profits or even short into into (for nimble near-term traders).
As you can see in the chart below, gold touched up near overhead price channel resistance.
At the same time, it reached an MFU-4 upside price target at $1701.
And if you need additional evidence, this is occurring with a momentum divergence.
Traders are likely to take profits here (and sell rallies). We will provide an update on potential downside in the days ahead.
