COMEX: Commodity Technical Analysis of GOLD SILVER & CRUDE

GOLD

US Unemployment Claims declined the most in last seven years. Hence a sharp fall was noticed at the US opening time. There were other data also at the same time i.e. Manufacturing Sales and Core CPI that made a gap down of almost 5$ at a time and then a little recovery took place. Else the commodity should break the resistance of 1306. Following the support @1289
Forecast
Gold is expected to trade in a bit consolidate range of 1306 to 1289
SILVER
 
Taking cues from weakness in gold prices even spot silver prices declined by around 1.3 percent. Besides, weakness in the base metals complex also exerted downside pressure on prices. So we expect that the silver price would trade in a consolidation.
Forecast
Silver prices are expected to trade in a range of 18.800 to 20.00
CRUDE

Crude oil prices moved down in US nearly 1% as positive US data and higher inventories earlier pushed the prices down. Russia faces broader economic and industrial sanctions from the United States and Europe if it meddles in Ukraine's presidential elections on May 25.
Forecast
Crude is expected to trade sideway for today’s session in a range of 102 to 101
