Highlights

  • ABX is experiencing short- and medium-term selling pressure, trading below key moving averages with ongoing downside risk.
  • Momentum indicators and oscillators signal continued weakness, with oversold conditions highlighting intraday seller dominance.
  • Expected five-day price range is C$54.00–C$57.50, with low probability of near-term gains and risk of further decline if C$54.00 breaks.

Bearish momentum persists as price hovers near intraday highs

On the technical front, ABX remains below the SMA-20 at C$57.32 and SMA-50 at C$60.04, while maintaining a considerable buffer above the SMA-200 at C$51.25. The Ichimoku Kijun level at C$55.42 provides immediate support. Momentum indicators on the daily chart, including MACD and ADX, are aligned in 'Sell' territory, and both the RSI and CCI confirm this bearish momentum. Stoch RSI and Bull/Bear Power point to oversold conditions, indicating prevailing intraday selling pressure despite price action near today's highs.

Downside risks prevail as bullish reversal needs resistance breach

Over the next five trading days, ABX is expected to trade within a typical volatility band between C$54.00 and C$57.50. The current probability of a price increase remains low, suggesting that further declines or ongoing consolidation are more likely. If the price pushes above resistance at C$57.50, a bullish reversal could take shape. Conversely, a drop below support at C$54.00 would increase the risk of additional downside.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, sees Barrick Gold Corporation trading under technical pressure, with price stuck below both short- and medium-term averages. Momentum indicators remain bearish and signal little near-term upside. He remains cautious, noting that only a close above C$57.50 would shift the outlook. "Until ABX breaks C$57.50, I remain defensive and expect mostly sideways or lower action."

In a recent review, Barrick Gold was characterized by analysts as consolidating within a range amid persistent bearish momentum and cautious sentiment. The current technical setup reinforces this view, highlighting the importance of monitoring whether ABX can sustain support above C$54.00, as a break below this level could trigger additional downside risk in the sessions ahead.
