Open interest in gold futures markets shrank by more than 16K contracts on Wednesday, extending the downtrend for the third session in a row according to preliminary readings from CME Group. Volume followed suit and dropped by around 123.2K contracts.
Gold prices corrected from recent peaks and printed humble losses on Wednesday. The downtick, however, was on the back of a marked pullback in open interest and volume, leaving the prospects for a deeper retracement diminished in the very near term. The continuation of the recent upside should meet the next hurdle of note at the critical $1,800 mark per ounce troy, which coincides with the equally relevant 200-day SMA ($1,802).
