The above shows a simple method where we can see amazing application of channels along with horizontal line concept and Relative strength index (RSI) indicator.

An ideal trade setup would be for the short positions as the overall trend over past few days is negative. It is wisely said to trade in the direction of the trend as the line of least resistance is on downside.

Now when prices break below the support horizontal line and reverses from the channel resistance as well that is the ideal trade setup. We can see reversal in RSI as well during such time. We also keep a track on price movement on COMEX Gold to have high conviction.

Price has again arrived near the channel resistance and is on the verge of reversal from there. It is about to break below the short term red channel support and RSI is also on the verge of reversal. So is it time to go short on GOLD?
