Gold Price Today| CreditSamadhaan.com News Desk | 21 June 2025
After showing signs of recovery in previous sessions, gold prices took a bearish turn on Friday’s intraday trading, slipping below crucial support levels and raising fresh concerns among investors and traders. The price of gold fell to $3,368.13 per ounce (as of 20 June, 23:55 UTC), influenced by a breakdown in short-term bullish momentum and heightened negative technical indicators.
This recent slide marks a notable deviation from the metal’s previous upward correction phase, where hopes of a sustained recovery were high. However, the break below the bullish correctional trendline, combined with a drop under the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA50), has triggered caution across global markets.
What Triggered the Decline in Gold Prices? | Gold Price Today
The primary catalyst behind this move is a technical failure to maintain bullish structure on short-term charts. Over the last week, gold had been attempting to rebound after a prior correction. But this effort was undermined by increasing negative pressure, confirmed by:
-
Bearish crossover signals on the RSI (Relative Strength Index)
-
Breakdown below EMA50, which typically acts as a dynamic support
-
Loss of upward trendline, indicating a shift from recovery to correction
These developments collectively point toward a weakening bullish case and hint at the beginning of a potential deeper retracement if support zones are not respected.
RSI Suggests Momentum Is Shifting Bearish | Gold Price Today
One of the more telling signs of this downturn is the RSI’s movement, which not only exited its oversold territory but also flashed a negative overlapping signal—a classic indication of building bearish momentum. Traders often interpret this as a signal that the asset may face more downside in the immediate future, especially when not accompanied by reversal signals.
When combined with the technical break of the ascending trendline, these signals open the path for gold to test lower support zones—possibly around $3,340 and $3,320 in the coming sessions.
Key Technical Levels to Monitor
| Level | Description |
|---|---|
| $3,368.13 | Current price (as of 20 June, 23:55 UTC) |
| $3,340 – $3,320 | Next support range |
| $3,400 | Psychological resistance |
| EMA50 | Now turned into resistance after breakdown |
| Trendline | Broken, signaling shift to bearish momentum |
If these supports fail to hold, a more extensive correction could unfold, especially in the absence of any immediate bullish catalysts.
Market Sentiment: Is This a Temporary Pullback or Trend Reversal?| Gold Price Today
From a broader perspective, gold’s appeal remains supported by macroeconomic uncertainties, including inflation concerns, potential interest rate adjustments, and geopolitical tensions. However, technical indicators are currently outweighing fundamental optimism, at least in the short term.
Unless buyers return with strong volume and positive divergence appears on momentum indicators like the RSI or MACD, the bias remains tilted toward the downside.
This is not an uncommon phenomenon in commodity markets. Gold often undergoes healthy corrections even in long-term bullish environments. The current slide should be viewed in this context unless key support levels are decisively broken, which would then call for a re-evaluation of the medium-term trend.
What Could Impact Gold Prices Next?
Looking ahead, traders and investors should stay alert to:
-
Global macroeconomic data releases (US inflation, job reports, etc.)
-
Federal Reserve commentary on interest rates
-
Geopolitical developments, particularly in the Middle East or Eastern Europe
-
U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) movement, which typically has an inverse relationship with gold
Any shift in these indicators could potentially alter sentiment quickly, either reinforcing the bearish trend or sparking a bullish reversal.
Expert Take| Gold Price Today
“Gold has entered a short-term corrective phase. The breakdown from the bullish structure and negative RSI crossover are clear warning signs. However, as long as key support zones hold, we may still see consolidation or a potential bounce,”
— Rohit M., Senior Technical Analyst, CreditSamadhaan.com
Conclusion
The gold market is at a technical crossroads. While long-term fundamentals may still support the metal as a safe-haven asset, the short-term trend has turned bearish, and the next few trading sessions will be crucial in determining direction.
Investors are advised to stay cautious, monitor support zones closely, and wait for clear reversal signs before initiating new long positions.
