“Gold is right now weak, gaining support and hovering near lows. It’s still range-bound, but has not breached the lows. It’s a wait and watch to see if it breaks the support of Rs 45,000 for 10-gram levels or continues the momentary upside to Rs 47,500 for 10 grams. Same correlated as $1720 per ounce which could bring it down to $1580 per ounce or on the higher side beyond $1845 per ounce for an investment recommendation,” said NS Ramaswamy, Head of Commodities, Ventura Securities Ltd.
