Gold retreats as traders continue to take profits near historic highs. At this point, it looks that the market needs more catalysts to test the $2500 level.

If gold settles below $2445, it may gain additional downside momentum and move towards the support at $2390 – $2400.

Silver

Silver tests support at $27.20 – $27.50 as gold/silver ratio climbed towards the 89.50 level. Rising gold/silver ratio is a key problem for silver bulls.

A successful test of the support at $27.20 – $27.50 will push silver towards the next support level at $25.20 – $25.60.

Platinum
