Gold is losing ground as traders focus on U.S. dollar’s rally. The American currency tested weekly highs after Donald Trump set 25% tariffs on Japan and South Korea.
The technical picture remains unchanged as gold is stuck below the resistance at $3350 – $3360.
Silver pulled back as traders rushed to take profits off the table near multi-year highs.
In case silver settles back below the $36.50 level, it will head towards the nearest support at $35.65 – $35.85.
Platinum moved lower amid broad pullback in precious metals markets. At this point, platinum needs additional positive catalysts to test new highs.
A successful test of the support at $1335 – $1340 will push platinum towards the next support level at $1270 – $1275.
