Ultimately, this is a market that will move counter to the US dollar, and therefore you need to pay close attention to the US Dollar Index as well. Ultimately, as the US dollar strengthens it suggests that people are much more interested in owning bonds than they are gold. If that is going to be the case, then it is very likely that we will continue to see downward pressure. If we break down below the hammer from the Monday session, then I think the market is likely to go towards the $1750 level. If we break down below that level, then it is possible that we go looking towards the $1680 level next. To the upside, we need to wipe out the losses from late last week to go towards the gap above at $1860.
