Gold does not have upside/downside boundaries so both ways are possible.
Upside bias is why I kept my part of long.

5/24/2018 Session1 recap:
Long Gold at 1294.2 level and short hedge at 1294.6.
As they are price sets of accumulation strategies, whenever price moves to either side directly, to total sum will be a profit.

GOLD is dancing around the $1300. I wait for a long on a new $1300 cross to the upside

Me too hold a small long position, cost at 1303.
.DXY weakened a little, hopefully Gold will break SMA20 (1297.2) and SMA50 (1297.7) and go up in UK Session.

a quick note:
1) U.S. may reboot trade war with China, bad for USD, good for basket currencies. (short term)
2) Latest news: Italy snap election could be held as early as Jul 29, refer to GBP surge after the British snap election announcement, this is good news for EURO. (long term)
