Gold price is still trading within its medium-term consolidation, as we can see on the daily chart:

Gold is unchanged this morning, as it is still trading along $1,750 price level. Financial markets remain in risk-on mode, as stocks continue to hover along their medium-term highs.

Yesterday’s ISM Manufacturing PMI release came out along with expectations, however still well below 50 mark. There will be no important economic data releases today.
