# Gold targets Rs 1,62,000, dip-buying strategy advised 2026-08-20T07:27:42+00:00 | Business & Economy | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 1 independent outlet (2 source reports) MCX Gold October futures are targeting Rs 1,62,000 as the next resistance, with technicals showing a clear bullish structure. Times of India reports analysts advising a buy-on-dips strategy near Rs 1,60,600-1,60,700, with stop-loss below Rs 1,59,500. Silver is retesting its breakout level at Rs 2,20,000, presenting a buying opportunity with a target of Rs 2,52,000. The bullish case rests on sustained higher highs and higher lows, positive moving-average alignment, and prices holding above key support levels. While the Relative Strength Index at 71 signals an overbought market, analysts say strong trending markets can sustain elevated RSI readings. A decisive break below Rs 1,49,000 for gold would weaken the setup. ## Indian Opinion Analysis Both articles from the same outlet report the same bullish gold outlook, showing a uniform straight-reporting framing. No stance differences exist between the two because both are wire-style analysis from named analysts. The measured takeaway: gold's technicals remain strong, with key support at Rs 1,49,000-1,59,500 and resistance at Rs 1,62,000. Watch for a daily close above Rs 1,56,000 to confirm momentum, or a breach below Rs 1,49,000 which would question the bullish case. Traders should note that elevated RSI near 71 can persist in strong trends but caution against chasing at highs. ## Coverage Coverage: 2 sources, 2 neutral - timesofindia.indiatimes.com (neutral report) Straight technical analysis with no political or official framing - timesofindia.indiatimes.com (2) (neutral report) Same neutral technical report with buy-on-dips strategy This story was synthesised by AI from the 2 sources linked above.
