New Delhi: Gold and silver prices edged lower today in Indian markets after posting big gains in the previous session. On MCX, gold futures were down 0.12% to ₹47,120 per 10 gram while silver fell 0.26% to ₹68,361 per kg.

In global markets, gold rates were steady today and were on track second straight weekly gain. Spot gold was flat at $1,763.46 per ounce.
Technically, international gold is trading in a bullish momentum after pushing past the resistance level of $1,760, say analysts. Among other precious metals, silver was also flat at $25.85 while platinum gained 0.5% to $1,198.21. “If gold prices continue to stabilize above $1760 there are chances of recovery upticks which may lead prices towards $1820 or more. At the same time a direct turn below $1725 is a bearish signal,” Geojit said.
