Gold retreated to 1253.80 today as a lowest record, but managed to recoup losses with high pace at 1265 high, currently trading 1261.92 intraday. Gold is rising a strong bullish since yesterday with +342-pips as price action supported by weaker US dollar performance as the Index bottomed at 97.26 2017-fresh-low.
Gold bullish momentum will be re-tested today as US releases unemployment claims, and in case gold closes below 1246, alerts will be signaled as XAUUSD failed to hold the rising trend, and instead a bearish momentum will revolve around the precious metal. On the other hand, U.S Administration lack of performance with negative impact on US dollar could provoke gold yet-again.

Comment: The market is bullish and powering into an upturn that should extend into a test of 1265.60 resistance. A close over 1265.60 is bullish and calls for an extension around 1280+/-. Suspect a setback from 1265.60+/- on the first test. Near term corrections will likely hold in tight congestion in the upper edges of yesterday's run. A close under 1245.20 is needed to start a turn into a retracement / correction phase.
