Momentum weakens as resistance limits upside
On the H1 chart, ABX is positioned just above the MA-200 at C$55.36, while remaining below the MA-20 (C$56.56) and MA-50 (C$57.80). The Ichimoku Kijun serves as immediate resistance at C$57.63. Momentum signals are weak: the MACD is on a strong sell, and ADX indicates selling conditions. RSI reads 41.11 (sell) and Stoch RSI is overbought, displaying a divergence. CCI and AO are both neutral, while BBP points to oversold territory, showing continued seller dominance.
Downside risk increases on elevated consolidation odds
Over the next several sessions, ABX is forecast to consolidate within a volatility band of C$52.97 to C$57.89. There is a 59% probability of a downward move, while the bullish scenario (41%) would require a sustained break above C$57.63 resistance. Should price fall below support at C$52.97, additional downside risk may emerge.
Earlier, analysts noted that Barrick Gold was experiencing short-term bearish momentum, while longer-term technical support remained intact. The latest action shows that bearish signals continue to dominate, making the potential for a sustained downside break a key risk to monitor in the coming sessions.
