Spot gold may test a support at $1,887, as the bounce triggered by this support is ending around a resistance at $1,912 per ounce.

The support and the resistance are identified as the 23.6% and the 38.2% retracements of the downtrend from $2,014.97 to $1,847.57. The bounce looks like a pullback towards a rising trendline.

A break above $1,912 could lead to a gain to $1,931. On the daily chart, gold is stuck in a neutral range of $1,889-$1,924, formed by the 300% and the 314.6% projection levels of an uptrend from $1,159.96.

The bias could be towards the downside, as the downtrend from the Aug. 7 high of $2,072.50 may extend below the Sept. 24 low of $1,847.57, driven by a wave C.
