Gold continues to build energy within the range it has been trading in all summer:


Gold (Daily)

The streak of lower highs since the July peak remains intact and the price action has recently centered around the midpoint of the summer range, ~$1340. It's also interesting to note that if you look at the bottom part of the chart, gold options implied volatility (GVZ) has begun to peak up ever so slightly despite gold itself trading relatively calmly. An indication that a larger move is right around the corner?

A thrust above $1360 is what it would take for me to turn outright bullish, whereas gold will still be rangebound and neutral unless we experience a breakdown below major support at $1310.
