Market Reviews of the Previous Day:
During NY session on 15 September, the Federal Reserve and other central banks joined the European Central Bank to launch a currency swap agreement. It will inject the dollar into the Europe bank industry which appeared funding crisis. Market confidence turned stable.
The dollar fell against major currencies, but the euro's rebound was not supported by the improvement of the real economy. Technically there was no symptom of upward movement.
European banking industry is deeply falling to the debt crisis. The central bank's action was just to give more time for Europe to solve the problem, and there was no real improvement in the crisis.
Some people think that this move of the European Central Bank was a temporary solution, and did not solve the Greek insolvency problem. It is predicted that policy makers have prepared for Greek default, and may be looking for more measures in the coming months.
The current foreign exchange market basically continued the main structure of the previous technical trend.
September 15, international gold closed lower. The world's major central banks provided dollar liquidity to maintain stability of financial market. The market risk aversion therefore dissipated rapidly. Gold had a certain sell-off.

Trading suggestions:
After downward breaking, the target theoretically is at 1718 and 1703. However, since the downward breakthrough of the up moving trend line before closing was not obvious, selling gold could lower the position.
